Another season under the canopy of Weevil Nation! Sporting several new bugs and great new found attitude, we take the ice in true Weevil fashion. No sweaty balls or putrid smell coming from a walking pile of goalie gear before the game. Although we were missing several of the originals, the Weevil spirit still shines through. And we even got to warm up on a goalie before the game started.

The Weevils started the game sans time out against the newly formed Magna Group. Although they held strong in the 8th place position last year, rumors were circling that Magna had acquired some talent in the off season. If this is the truth, then those newbies did not show up for the first game. They played real hard for the first 15 minutes with 7 skaters. During this time, the Weevils were just working on knocking off the dust and getting their legs back. Cow was working on his crossover and Pinna looked like he had taken up smoking during the spring break. BMoore takes the first goal of the season from a dish from our newly acquired Tom Brown. The second goal was a mistake as the score keeper was probably talking to her girlfriend on the phone as Myze got the goal and he was not even in the building. Nice shot!

The second period was almost all Sattora-san, as he wiped down his bloody Hatori Hanzo blade after his 2nd kill. And somehow, Cow gets an assist on a goal by Todd ‘The Stripes’ Huestis for a good lead going into the final stretch. In this period, Skatch decides to get a head start on Myze taking 2 penalties for weak ass horizontal stick play. Skatch was thoroughly upset at the change of the hockey rules to the equivalent of a Disney theme park ride. Although Diddle doesn’t mind to much as he raced through the entire team at mach -1 taking full advantage of the new rules. If the old rules were in effect, he might not have made it past our blue line.

And the third period was soaked, cause it was raining goals. Brown gets 2 goals topping off his debut at 3 points this game! What a great addition to the team. And who can forget the wall that we built in net! Tweetie was off the hook, stopping multiple gunshots with her teeth! The only way they scored was because Diddle was tired of seeing the tears flow from Magna skaters every time she stuffed them, so he made one of his infamous passes right to a Magna in perfect position to put it away. But enough of that, cause no matter what Diddle did, she was not going to let them score again. Welcome to all the new member of the team! A great start to what will be a great season in Weevil Nation.

Thanks to Universal who started off the season right with dogs and beer! Can’t believe he didn’t bring any brats.
