Shamrockville hosts the Bruisers in Tuesdays back to back set and the teams get reacquainted with Crouse and Foligno “exchanging pleasantries” at the 2:00 mark. Two Selke nominees mix it up at 9:36 with Stone and Bergeron having heated words about why wingers don’t win the Selke.
At 10:24 some real hockey is played and Hakanpaa threads a tape to tape pass to Tkachuk who draws in two defenders before dishing to Robertson who make sit 1-0 for the Patriots.
Jamie Oleksiak gets leveled at 14:24, and is looking for revenge, but when he drops the gloves, all the chickens are squawking on the “Bruisers” side and with no one willing to dance, he sits for 4:00 plotting his revenge.
Just after the first penalty has expired, Clayton Keller puts one past Hellebuyck to tie the game up at 1-1 on the PP at 17:12.
It looks like the Bruisers may escape with a tie going into teht 2nd, but Tkachuk deviates from the plan and scores off the rush from Burns and Hathaway to put the Patriots back up 2-1 at 19:36.
The second period is all Patriots, all the time. Bergeron pounces on a loose puck after a broken stick at the Bruisers bench and goes in to put the Patriots up 3-1 at 2:48.
Pavelski scores from Robertson and Carlo at 4:00 to push the lead to 4-1.
At 6:48, Oleksiak exacts his revenge. He sees Fowler attempting to come out from behind his net and puts him into the upper deck. Fowler would be -2 for the remainder.
Pavelski is again rewarded at 15:36 from Bergeron and Oleksiak to put this one out of reach at 5-1.
16:24 sees Bergeron score from Palmieri and Ekholm to extend the lead to 6-1. Bruisers fans were heard chanting for Markstrom, that’s how bad this was.
The third period get chippy as Jason Zucker applies the can opener to Crosby who slides awkwardly into the boards and wouldn’t return after the 4:24 mark.
Crouse is seen taking names, and he makes good, as he scores a goal on a perfect pass from Tavares to make it 7-1.
Hathaway from Tkachuk and Hakanpaa makes it 8-1 at 11:12. Followed by Crouse reminding everyone why its not advisable to run the Patriots top players as he lays out DeSmith at 14:48, who would not return.
Bergeron from Carlo and Robertson finally ends the Bruisers long night at 17:12 and the Patriots go on to a 9-1 victory.
Patriots were: 63 shots 15 quality for 9 ES goals.
Bruisers were 21 shots 4 quality for 1 ES goal.
Faceoffs were 21-24 for Bonavista, each team getting 3 A wins.
Game Two:
Now that the Bruisers have that ugly game out of the way, they can come back with a solid effort in their home game…..or not….
Strome takes 2 minutes for tripping at 2:48 but despite several good chances, DeSmith holds the PK down.
Picking up where they left off, Tkachuk takes a pass from Crosby, toe drags Lindgren and puts a puck past De Smith at 6:48 to start the pain all over again.
At 8:48 Fowler unleashes a blast from the point, but Lindell blocks the puck, passes it up to McDavid who puts one five hole past Desmith for a 2-0 Lead. From possible tie game to down by two goals in under 20 seconds.
The next faceoff sees Tavares win the draw, drop the puck back to Burns who threads a pass to McDavid in top gear and he makes it 3-0 at 9:36.
Dylan Strome gets a golden opportunity with a quality chance off a broken stick, only to be denied by Hellebuyck at 14:48.
Unfortunately, the Patriots can’t keep Strome off the score sheet forever and he finally breaks the shutout at 15:12 of the 1st on a feed from Smith and Theodore.
The second period is all Patriots once again. Bergeron from Robertson at 2:00, Hathaway from Crosby and Tkachuk at 10:00 Bergeron from Robertson at 12:48 and Crosby from Takchuk and Ekholm at 15:36 put the Patriots up 7-1 after 2 periods.
A Bench minor is assessed to the Patriots at 19:36 of the 2nd for taunting.
With the Bruisers on the PP to start the 3rd, the fans who were still out getting beer and brats missed Clayton Keller scoring on said PP to make it 7-2 at :24.
Oleksiak sits for 2 minutes for tripping at 3:36 but the Patritos PK holds firm. Tkachuk is sent off at 12:24, but again the Patriots manage to kill off the ensuing PP.
Game 1 menace, Lawson Crouse, pots a goal at 1:36 from Burns and Tavares. Tavares from Tkachuk and Hakanpaa at 16:48 and Tavares from Tkachuk and Ekholm round out the scoring and send the Patriots to a 10-2 win.
