GYM RATS vs. THE LEGION OF GOON

Gym Rats 5 • Legion of Goon 8

CHICAGO, IL – Unlike each and every episode of "The Superfriends," in real life, the heroes don't always come out victorious. Such was the case last night for the Gym Rats, as they went out in style, playing a tight game that didn't slip away until the final two minutes of play.

The Gym Rats notched the first goal of the game, when Greg "I remind myself of a young Kovalchuk" Rolnick, drew the opening faceoff back to his defenseman, who lasered a shot through traffic and into the back of the net.

To their credit, the Gym Rats’ defense did an admirable job of keeping the LoG's top scorer in check (often employing a double-teaming strategy that sounds a bit lewder than it really was).

To abbreviate this recap (you're welcome & please refrain from comment, Mr. Hagy): Although Rolnick put up yet another post-season hat trick (including his first power-play goal), the LoG pulled away in the final minutes of the game with three unanswered goals.

With a few weeks off before the start of next season, Rolnick plans on resting up by the phone, where he expects to receive an offer to join the ESPN boys in the booth for Wed. Night Hockey (since he's now available and all).

so STAY TUNED!
