Hot Rods Losing Skid Hits 4 Games

The Hot Rods Hockey Club has been on the losing side of their past few games, dropping four over the past couple weeks.

The first one came at the hands of the Imperials in a penalty filled game where the Rods lost 6-1. Not long after,  the Imperials were moved up to Div 9.

The second loss came in a nail-biter, with the Hot Rods losing 5-4 to the Fussy Puckers. Tony Schellenberg had a goal and an assist in the game vs the Fussy Puckers to earn him the Amateur Stuntman of the Game Award. 




The Hot Rods third loss came at the hands of the Ice-oholics, falling 2-1 in a well-played, hard-fought game that saw very few penalties, just good hockey. Tayler Delannoy earned the Amateur Stuntman of the Game for keeping the Rods in the game with some truly amazing saves. 




The latest occurred last Wednesday night at the hands of the China Towners. The Hot Rods lost 3-1 in a game that showcased what happens when Andrew gets angry. With 16 penalty minutes, which included an unsportsmanlike, a cross checking, an interference and a gross misconduct, he quickly took control over the PIM lead for the team. Andrew was diligent by triple-checking to make sure he was really ejected from the game for getting 3 minor penalties, before he screamed across the ice to the referee to let him know what he thought of him, resulting in the previously mentioned gross misconduct. Scott Kasaboski played a great game in net, even after pulling his groin early in the second period.

The Hot Rods next action is Sunday, June 26th at 5 pm vs Nuclear Winter.
