GAME RECAP BULLDOGS White Eagles Date/Time Rink 6 3 03/31/2006 The Edge Ice Arena

April 5th, 2006- This past Friday (March 3)1 at the Edge in Bensenville the Bulldogs took on the White Eagles in the first BHL playoffs. Early in the day White Eagles captain called the league commissioner trying to get the game rescheduled because of a sick goaltender.

The commissioner could not reschedule and the league states that all players must be on the roster and have played 4 regular season games. 

Following the rules the game went on.

The Bulldogs came out strong in the first period scoring three to the White Eagles 2. Sam Karim played a great game all around, advancing the puck into the zone and back checking. Sam brought his lumber to the game, knocking the White Eagle’s goalie down twice, once for an easy goal. Darren Diamond played a strong game scoring two goals. The White Eagles were surprised that a little guy could move so fast.  

Now the Bulldogs will look forward to their toughest game of the season, trying to give the Bandits their first BHL loss in the championship game. Coach Jason Darfler told reporters at a Monday press conference, “We will have to play a flawless game.  We can not afford to turn the puck over, and we must stop the Bandit breakout.”  The championship game will be played at the Allstate Arena on April 8^th.

• Sam Karim stepping up and playing a great game.

• Darren Diamond finally scoring when it counted

• Solid Defense, especially in the critical moments late in the game.
