GAME SUMMARY: Hogs lose big vs undefeated Jager Bombers

FINAL SCORE:
Sweat Hogs 0
Jager Bombers 12

Ouch.

Yes, this was an ugly game. It could have been a LOT uglier, but we actually played some occasionally good defense and prevented the Jager Bombers (16-0-2) from running it up any further, which they absolutely could have. Despite the 12 goals, Dave played quite well, making several insane glove saves, some of which had some of the Bombers shaking their head.

What didn't help was being short on both offense and defense, as our 2 spares were last-minute cancellations. (Apparently they were even IN the building for the game, but had to jet right before....one had to leave and the other guy was his ride, lol. D'oh!) So we played with 5 forwards and 3 defensemen, and a very busy goalie. Solid game from Reynolds, who was tested....often.

All this being said, we did clinch a playoff spot, as we find ourselves 5 points up on the last 2 place teams, and with only 2 games left, they will be unable to catch us. Our next two games are against The Great Unknown (7-10-2, March 15, 7:00pm) and the North Stars (2-15-1, March 22, 4:30pm), both will be great tests going into the playoffs, and winning both may help our positioning in the B Bracket.
