RAMS WIN, RAMS WIN
Defense win Championships, especially when they score two goals.
Rams win the A-league CML at Wintersport, beating the bandits in the final game 2-1. It was a classic match-up between the team that scored the most goals in the regular season (bandits) and the team that gave up the least (rams).
Goal'in and company came out firing on all cylinders in the first period to set the bandits up for destruction. A pressured but patient forcheck by snap, mvp, and dk made the bandits turn it over to carter at the point - who walked it in and sent an nhl-caliber blast to the left upper 90.
Period two took forever as both teams settled in for the long haul ... that is until Amos tucked one in the rigth corner from a nice feed from goal'in on the PP.
The bandits managed one late in the second before they felt the freeze of the rams defense, offense and all non-sense just shutting them down.
P.S. the rams killed a lenghty 2 on 1, not mention a 6 on 4 in the last 1:18.
It was an awesome performace by Kevin in net, who was outstanding all playoffs and season long. Even the refs gave him the game puck. And special thanks to carter and amos for their blasts from the blue line.
Also, the sixth-man award goes to Jones, who got in the russian's head somewhere between Moscow and Kosovo.
Next game ... sometime next september.
Pics to come.
