Speck Blog: Slash Season Over

July 31, 2014

It’s always tough writing a blog about ending your season earlier than expected, but thats what I find myself doing yet again this year as our team was eliminated in a deciding game 5 in Onondaga against the high powered Redhawks on Sunday afternoon. Our regular season ended with us finishing 10-4 and securing 3rd overall place in the league. We played Buffalo Creek in the first round and swept…

Speck Blog: Slash Are 7-1 in CanAm Play

June 4, 2014

This past weekend saw us up in action for a home game against the Pinewoods Smoke, a team who we recently beat in OT on the road by a final of 13-12 two weeks ago in a tightly contested game. We were missing many regulars so the score was probably a bit closer than it should have been for that one, but it set a good tone for the rematch…

Speck Blog: Cyclops Fall to Demons

March 10, 2014

This week our team went out and lost a tough game to the Niagara Lock Monsters in a relatively low scoring 11-7 final. Our goaltender Jay Preece made several outstanding saves to keep us in the game and give us extra chances to try and close the gap near the end, but we couldn’t find a way to beat Dave DiRuscio when it mattered as he was solid all night….

Speck Blog: Cyclops Tough Loss to Barrie
