With a huge win over The Bears in their season home opener, the pressure was on the Blue Tongues to once again prevail over the league leaders. Having been introduced to the smaller rink and hard checking style of play produced by Gold Coast, The Bears were expected to hit back, and fast, against the Blue Tongues in their second game of the double header.
The Bears did not disappoint, coming at the Blue Tongues early in the game and changing their tactics to not only start playing a physical game, but also stamping their authority over the control of the game. Both teams seemed to lack the energy they had during Saturday’s game, and some simple rookie errors caused a line change for the Gold Coast team, starting to run two lines instead of three. Despite The Bears claiming control of the puck for majority of the first period however, it was Dave Upton of the Blue Tongues who netted the only goal of the first.
Tempers flared in the second, with roughing calls on both teams, and it was clear that neither team were giving up on their race to be the next to pot a goal. Both Sydney’s goaltender John Daugulis and Gold Coast’s Simo Mustonen had their work cut out for them in net as each team made shot after shot on goal. However, once again the Blue Tongues made some silly mistakes, costing them dearly on the penalty kill. It was The Bears that led going into the third, winning the period 3 goals to the Gold Coast’s lone goal, ending the period 3-2.
Excitement ruled the third, as the Blue Tongues tied up the scores on 3 a piece, before The Bears took advantage of a lapse in concentration and took the lead once more at 4-3 with little more than 8 minutes left in the game. The Blue Tongues never gave up, and with just under 2 minutes left, tied the game 4-4.
Anticipation was high in the stands as the teams took to the face off after a penalty was called on The Bears, giving the Blue Tongues a powerplay with a minute left in the third. Their fans behind them, Gold Coast focused on the job at hand and with 46 seconds left in the game, defenseman Ross Howell netted the game winning goal. The Bears failed to even up the scores in the dying seconds of the game, giving the Blue Tongues their third victory in the last three games.
The first star of the game was Blue Tongues Captain and centre, Billy Crumm. Second star of the game was Blue Tongues Defenseman, Don Burke and third star of the game was Bears’ Roberto Franchini.
Next weekend, the Blue Tongues face the Newcastle North Stars on June 21 & 22 at Gold Coast Iceland, Bundall. Games start at 3.30pm.
Goal 3 for the Red Wings came off an error by M.A. Fleury after he fell back and pushed the puck into his own net. The goal was awarded to Henrik Zetterberg.
Sergei Gonchar made it a one shot game with a minute and change to play, but it wasn’t enough.
Dion Phaneuf of the Calgary Flames has a strong shot. We’ve all heard about it, you might have also seen him power a rocket from the Blue Line. But have you seen him break glass, not once, but TWICE in the same game? This clip is a marvel at the shot that Dion Phaneuf posesses. The second glass breaking shot was from his OWN blue line! WOW!
Alexander Ovechkin put the 60 Goal mark closer today after scoring the empty net goal in todays Washington Capitals 4-2 defeat over the Nashville Predators.
Ovechkin scored his 58th goal of the season while trying to clear the puck in the closing seconds of the game.
Ovechkin scored an empty-netter at 19:56 of the third with a bank shot off of the boards from inside his own blue line that barely made it over the Nashville goal line.
“I was just trying to get the puck into the neutral zone, so it was the luckiest score ever,” Ovechkin said.
- Yahoo! Sports
Regardless of whether it was shot in on purpose or simply pure luck, Alexander Ovechkin looks like he will pass the 60 Goal mark in the next few games.
Doing so will make him the first person to do so in 12 years, no small feat and evidence that he truly is the best Scorer in the modern game.

Montreal Canadiens Post-Game Vlog, Vol. 15 (Game 58)
The 2/3 mark has passed and the Habs are looking ok. But this latest stretch has been a real dog. Still, nice to see us escape with the 2-1 OT win instead of confirm the worst fears. Inside are my thoughts on this rather uneventful, yet important, game. Music: intro-”Cold Irons Bound” by Bob Dylan (1997), outro-”That Lady (Pts. 1 & 2)” by the Isley Brothers (1973).
