Semi Finals Previews


Bruins Vs Falcons @ 8:45 pm 
The Falcons and Bruins face off in our first semi-final game of the night. The Bruins are coming off a huge quarter-final win against the Hawks, and will be looking to carry the momentum into this game. They will be without Aziz Patel, and the Falcons will be missing out magician Moosa Bhoola. The Falcons game plan seems simple enough, have Shoaib Khan and Ricky Saili control the front while the rest of the team locks down on D. It's been a working formula so far this season, and the Bruins will have their hands full. At the end, it comes down to the goalies and both have been playing phenomenally as of late. May
the best team win.
Jets Vs Sharks @ 9:45 pm
At 9:45, the Jets and Sharks will face off to see who will face the winner of the previous game in the finals. The Jets came off with a narrow win against the Nords, and will be aiming to use the same style of play against the Sharks, who are without Abu Hafejee. The core of the Jets success has come from Abdul Manjra, and GM Muzammil Khan will need a Plan B if he is locked down. As for the Sharks, there is not much this team lacks in, it will only be the long grind of keeping a very energetic Jets team contained. Let's hope the bye week was a week of rest and not rust.

Quarter Finals Summaries

 
Jets defeat Nordiques 6-5 
Jets eliminate Nordiques.

Starting the night were the Jets and Nordiques, two teams we were eagerly hoping would meet in the playoffs. Wish granted. The Jets scored first with a goal from Abdul Manjra, only to be outdone by Arwinder Banwait and Gopi Johal minutes later. Manjra would lead by example and tie the game up with his second goal of the night. With a goal from teammate Sadik Patel, Manjra would complete his hat trick a minute later as the Jets dominated 4-2. The Nords' Johal pushed back with his second goal to lessen the gap, but Andrew Persaud would be in the right place at the right time to get a goal with 7 seconds left in the first. Jets lead 5-3. The second half was an all-out assault from the Nords as Johal would get two more goals, courtesy of some hustle plays from GM Farhan Saleh.  Abdul Manjra would be the eventual savior for the Jets as he netted the game winner with 4 minutes left to play. With goalie Mohamed Bashir running to the bench, Farhan Saleh just missed a tying goal by half an inch. Tough luck, but here are some soothing words from the Mighty Ducks, "A quarter of an inch this way and it would have gone in. A quarter of an inch, Charlie. | Yeah, but a quarter inch the other way and you'd have missed completely." Jets win 6-5 and move on to face the Sharks.At 8:45PM, we have the Jets and Nordiques face off in what is likely to be a very exciting game. The seasons series between the two teams is split 1-1, and there really is no telling who will win it tonight. The Jets have offensive capabilities in Abdul Manjra and Huzaifah Panchbhaya, and a solid goalie in Mohammed AK Patel. That may not be enough as the Nords are fueled by a season-long frustration to prove they do not deserve to be in the basement. Expect Farhan Saleh, Jason Gogna and Gopi Johal to take over when it matters. 
Bruins Vs Hawks @ 9:45 pm
At 9:45PM, the Bruins take on the Hawks in a scenario the league is all too familiar with. The Bruins swept the season series 2-0, but I would hesitate to give them the credibility of a playoff win so soon. Both games had seen the Hawks without a full squad and a load of penalties called. Unfortunately for the Hawks again, Mohammed Kazi will be out due to a suspension, leaving Adil Patel to lead the team. As for the Bruins, GM Suhaib Shaikh will need quick shifts and strong man on man defense to contain the offensive threats coming their way. Goalies in question seem to be Kaleem Mirza and Shahir Shaikh.

Don't miss this one folks, it will get rowdy.

Week 10 Summaries

Bruins defeat Nordiques 12-10
Ladies and gentlemen the final games of the regular season have come and gone, and here's how it went down. The Bruins and Nordiques faced off for the battle of last place, with the respective GMs agreeing to go in net. Gopi Johal and Jason Gogna took advantage of this with the first goals of the night, but were not alone as Aziz Patel and Yahya Ingar went to work on Farhan Saleh as well. Both teams traded goals back and forth in a free for all frenzy, with the Nords managing to hold onto a 6-5 lead going into the half. Kudos to both teams for being great sports about the final game of the season, although I'm sure being guaranteed a playoff spot had something to do with it. The second half was the Yahya Ingar show as he went off to score 6 goals with a total tally of 8 goals on the night! This was all the Bruins needed as even a last second goal from the Nords' Arwinder Banwait would do nothing, as the Bruins walk away with a 12-10 win. 
Jets defeat Hawks 8-5
Next up the Hawks and Jets faced off in a game that involved a lot of physical play. Goalie Mohamed Ingar was called up to play for the Hawks, and quite frankly, didn't seem all too energized to play. Huzzy Panchbhaya scored the first goal of the night, only to be matched by a goal from Joe Bruno. Perhaps infuriated by this, Panchbhaya would score another goal to double his tally, while Erfan Bhanapatel would score a pair of his own. GM Muzammil Khan would have the last goal of the half as both teams get ready for the second tied at 3 a piece. The second period took a more shifted turn as the Jets came out strong, seeing two goals from Abdul Manjra, and a single from Sadik Patel and Muzammil Khan. The Hawks had a pair of goals towards the end including a fist fight instigated by GM Mohammed Kazi. Needless to say, suspensions are coming and the Jets walked away with an 8-5 win. 
Falcons defeat Sharks 10-8

And finally the Sharks and Falcons faced off to end the season on a clean note. The Sharks were short-benched, missing Abu Hafejee, Haran Karunakaran and Shoaib Rangrez. The Falcons took advantage 50 seconds into the game with a goal from Ricky Saili. Sharks GM Sufy Shaikh responded with a goal of his own, but Ricky would come back with another goal to one-up him. Shaikh and Vasim Kagzi would score to give the Sharks the brief lead, but the Falcons came back with two goals prior to period end for the 4-3 lead. The Sharks held it down in the second as Kagzi had back to back goals to reclaim the lead. Both teams went on to trade goals until the Falcons went off on a 4 goal streak, courtesy of Ricky Saili (2) and Moosa Bhoola (2). Despite a last minute effort from Vasim Kagzi, this game was over and won by the Falcons 10-8. Kudos to the Sharks for staying in the game as long as they did.

Next up...PLAYOFFS!
