Games Lost & Found

So after many, many months, a set of games played but not recorded has been found. And good thing too. Becuase I won those games. And I got creamed today. Absolutely stomped. This is for nate, that I would mention the games 2 best players, Wes Walz and Marco Sturm. Yeah, that was sarcastic, but they beat my ass today.

Oh, and on top of it, I found the results of a side series that Nate and I played a while back. Now how this worked was that we had a fantasy draft of anyone in the game, and from there we played an 11-game series. In which I whipped Nate's ass. I wonder where those glory days have gone. He's figured me out, I suppose. But that's OK, because the series is still close, and there's a long way to go.

Oh yeah, and WASHINGTON SUCKS. Take that Nadia, you and your damn East-Coast Liberal Bias. The Capitals. Not even Ovechkin can save this team from the likes of Dainius Zubrus.

Anyhow, on to the results (Nate sucks):

First, the Side-Series, which unfortunately doesn't count towards our final totals, but still represents just a little bit of how Nate folds when he's playing a decent team.

Game 1: Medicine Hat Menigos (Andy) 5 at Moose Jaw Moosen (Nate) 4
First Star: Daniel Alfredsson (Med. Hat) 2 goals
Game 2: Medicine Hat (Andy) 5 at Moose Jaw 4
FS: Sidney Crosby (Med. Hat) 2 G, assist
Game 3: Moose Jaw (Nate) 6 at Medicine Hat 3
FS: Jarome Iginla (Jaw) goal, 2 As
Game 4: Medicine Hat (Andy) 2 vs. Moose Jaw 0
FS: Marty Brodeur (Hat) 19 saves
Game 5: Medicine Hat (Andy) 5 at Moose Jaw 4
FS: Alexander Ovechkin (Hat) goal, 2 assists
Game 6: Medicine Hat (Andy) 6 vs Moose Jaw 3
FS: Alfredsson (Hat) Hat Trick...Quite Fitting
Game 7: Moose Jaw (Nate) 4 at Medicing Hat 2
FS: Marty St. Louis (Jaw) 2 goals
Game 8: Moose Jaw (Nate) 3 vs Medicine Hat 2
FS: Paul Kariya (Jaw) 2 goals

So there it was, a decisive 5-3 win in what was an 8-game series. We just kind of stopped at the point, because it had become monotonous. Anyhow, all I know is I took care of bidness.

And back to the matter at hand:
Game 68: Japan (Nate) 4 vs Great Britain 3
Game 69: Tampa Bay (Andy) 3 vs Vancouver 2
Game 70: Vancouver (Andy) 5 at Ottawa 3
Game 71: N.Y. Islanders (Andy) 5 vs. Los Angeles 3
Game 72: Nashville (Nate) 3 vs. N.Y. Rangers 2
Game 73: Minnesota (Nate) 4 at Washington 2
Game 74: Colorado (Nate) 4 vs. New Jersey 2
Game 75: Montreal (Andy) 7 vs. Boston 6
Game 76: Pittsburgh (Nate) 3 vs. San Jose 2

The New Totals -----
Games: Nate 37, Andy 36, 2 ties
Goals: Andy 253, Nate 253

So, it's close. Oh, and by the way, we've now made unlimited overtime the standard. No more ties, no more shootouts. Just and interminable length of extra hockey to deal with every game.
