He was so right. Each team scored two in the 2nd, as the green Witches still trailed by three headed into period three.

Jimmy D. had a beauty of a backhand goal follwed up by a rare clutch goal by Kevin Flanagan, as the lead was now 5-4.

"Hey where's that scorekeeper, we're gonna be in stop time after all," said Joe Surette.

Green pressed for teh tying goal, but a late empty net goal by Trevor Armand sealed the game with 8 seconds left.

"I told them not to pull the goalie," said Eric Grasso.

"How long do they expect me to keep this team in the game?" said Jimmy D.

That's the question now, isn't it.
