After the Swisston Snow Shovels won via the other team (MA/LL) not showing in the first round, odds were against them when they were up against the Loveshack Lemon Lollies. The Lollies had clinched a bye in the east, with their 3-1 ( 6) record, which seemed amazing against the Snow Shovels 2-2 (-11). Due to the lack of players on the Lollies, Joesiv2000 made the last ditch effort to sign 'etheralto' for the price 10 raw chicken.
The Lineup:
Loveshack LL: Joesiv2000 & etheralto
Swisston SS: peakman2 & EdwardJames2
The game started off with the players agreeing upon 3, 5 minute periods with no stops for goals and penalty's. This would be easier for the referee (neondan99) to keep track of time.
The first period started off just like the fans of Loveshack wanted it to. Joesiv2000 scored within seconds of the faceoff. Then, right at the end, Peakman2 had the fans out of their seats as he snuck in a goal for Swisston with time dwindling down. Final Score 1st Period: 1-1
The Second period was a complete massacre on the behalf of Loveshack. Joesiv2000 managed to slap 2 goals in, and the rookie was able to score one for his team. Swisston was completely defenseless, and they knew that they had to turn this game around,if they even had a chance. Final Score 2nd Period: 4-1
The third period, everything changed. Right at the start of play, Peakman and Edward slid themselves past the defense and peakman was able to score for a quick goal, mimicking Joesiv2000's goal at the start of the game. Then Swisston found themselves deep in their defense, and Joesiv2000 then shot. It missed! The Crowd was going wild, some were saying it was glitched, and they saw it went in, others were saying it hit the crossbar and stayed put. The referee called it no-goal, and Swisston was poised for a strong attack. They managed to skate the puck, not so beautifully, to their offensive. Then Edward shot an amazing 6m shot away from the goal, and it somehow got passed the loveshack defenders. This caused the fans to go mad! Some were outraged, some were cheering, Screenname was crying! Loveshack tried their best to keep possession of the puck, but they found that they were deep on defense. Then, peakman2 was 'hit (more like walked) infront of the goal just in time before the buzzer. The crowd was going insane, for a comeback like this in the Semi-Finals was practically unheard of! End of the 3rd Period 4-4
3.10.5: For tournament play, the overtime period has no breaks and continues until someone scores.
They were going into overtime.
For the first six minutes of play, it was a bloodbath over the puck. 'Loveshack has Possession of th- Oh Wait He's Been knocked and turned it ov- Loveshcak has possession again!' Is what the first six minutes would've been like if Bob Costas was shoutcasting the game. Towards the end of the first 6 minutes loveshack knew that they would lose. The determination of Swisston to win, was too strong for them. EdwardJames was behind the goal of Loveshack, he passed it up to peakman, and then GOAALLLLLL! Swisston had comeback from 4-1 and beat Loveshack in sudden death.
After the game, many GG's were had from the fans, and the players.
