Game 3 Report

The Hot Rods Hockey Club beat the Blues 5-3 in NCHL South action Monday night, in a game where Tony Schellenberg missed the net when it would have been impossible for it to be any more empty.

Greg Walker and Dean Tuttle each had 2 goals in the game, with Tom Hautzinger picking up the other goal in his first game back after injury. Schellenberg did not convert on the wide open net though.

Walker was able to pick up his first goal right before buzzer for the end of the first period. The Hot Rods won the draw with 3.4 seconds left on the clock and Walker cashed in the rebound on a shot from the point, unlike Schellenberg in the open net.

Scott Kasaboski made some amazing saves for the Rods, including a beauty glove hand on a clapper from one of the Blues defenceman. Maybe Tony needed a goalie like Scott in the net in order to score.

Dean Tuttle earned the Amateur Stuntman of the Game Award for his two goals, including a hell of a snipe to pretty much seal up the game for the Rods. By the way,  Tony missed a wide open net.
