First Test is No Test for Red Army

The Red Army may not celebrate Memorial Day, but they deserve to enjoy the long weekend after Wednesdays performance. A balanced scoring attack, tenacious effort, and suffocating defensive zone play helped the army cruise to a 9-1 win; running their record to 4-0 on the early season.
The army struggled out of the gate, as Dockside brought the pressure in the first few shifts. Playing their patented box and one d zone the army limited the damage and weathered the early storm. An early power play goal from Bob turned the momentum. The Army never looked back and for the 4th consecutive week the army saw the third period clock run as they coasted to victory.
In what is becoming the army norm, the scoring was spread out. Bob had a breakout offensive night netting a hat trick to go with two helpers. Travis continued his stellar production pivoting the other offensive unit with a goal and 4 apples.
Army call up Tmac also played an important roll adding a beautiful top dog snipe in his first appearance with the army. He also made his physical presence felt that set the tone throughout the lineup.
Wallace was spectacular as usual, making many key saves early while the outcome was still in doubt.
The army will put its unblemished record to the test next Wednesday at 850 against Vandalay Industries, get your tickets early as Wednesday will be Marty Bobble Head night. Reports have this being the first sell out of the young season.
