May 4, 2009: The Vudoos first meeting with the Red Dogs brought an end to the 3 game win streak. Goalie Pete Peterson put on a 3rd period show that had to bee seen. However this show was not in goal. After being struck in the face with a stick after a whistle Pete tossed his helmet off and gave pursuit on the Red Dogs player throwing his blocker and a puck in what can only be described as 'in the general direction of the player', because he was no where close to hitting him. After it was all settled down, Pete was given 16 minutes in penalties, and Greg Brand was given a game Misconduct for verbally abusing the official. In the end, the Vudoos were defeated 4-2.

Spring season starts early April and the Vudoos will see some new faces in the lineup for Spring. Thank you all for a great season, it was a lot of fun as usual. For those not playing Spring League, we will see you in September.

Next game is Sunday January 25th at 9:50pm vs. The Rink Rats. Let's take the Rats down in honor of jesse!

January 15, 2009: In a last hour substitution, Jesse Peterson played goal in place of his dad Pete Peterson. After a rough first period, Jesse was able to settle in and only allow 2 goals in the second period, and earned a third period shutout. The Vudoos lost this one 9-1.

December 21, 2008: The Vudoos fell to the River Rats in the first meeting of these two teams. The only Vudoo goal was score by Tom Godon which cut the River Rats lead to 2-1.

December 3, 2008: Sticks, punches, and words were flying late in the first period resulting in game misconducts for a Mighty Perch player and Gary Len of the Vudoos. Gary was simply pulling one of the three Perch players off of Michael Booth during the scuffle, but somehow received a 5 minute high sticking penalty, and a game misconduct. Things settled down after that, but not in the goal scoring department. The game was a seesaw battle to the end. Michael Booth lead the Vudoos with three goals and two assists, there were 4 other Vudoo players with a multi point game including Greg Brand who scored the eventual game winner off a rebound with 3:15 remaining in the game.

November 9, 2008: Pork Bothers got what proved to be the game winning goal with 5:04 remaining in the first period when Jim Schwanda took a shot from the point that was deflected by center Tom Godon, Pork then fired it through the OOFF! goalie's legs putting the Vudoos up 1-0. Vudoo goalie Pete Peterson put on a show, taking away every scoring chance, and saving every one of the OOFF!'s 36 shots. Tom Godon added the second Vudoo goal on a screen shot along the ice with 3:09 remaining in the second period. Pat Morrison scored in his second straight game with 11:08 left in the 3rd period.

November 4, 2008: The Sewer Rats struck early with goals :31 apart, Pete was screened on both and never had a chance.  Michael responded near the halfway mark with an unassisted goal. I the second, Tom T., mike and J.R. combined to tie the game at 2, the play featured a brilliant pass from Mike and a great finish by J.R. With :15 left on clock Pat unloaded a shot from just outside the blue line, which handcuffed the goalie putting the Vudoos up 3-2.

October 10, 2007:  Despite a better quality of play by the Vudoos, we were unable to match the four goals by the Sewer Rats.

First period goals by Tom Godon and Kurt Seidel, and some really big saves throughout the game by Pete Peterson kept the game close at all times. Our next game is Sunday October 21st - 9:30PM vs. Sewer Rats.

October 4, 2007:  This one was not pretty, as the Vudoos were handed a big loss by the OOFF! Two goals by Kurt Seidel, and one each from Jason Simon and Tom Godon were just not enough offence to even make this one close. Every time the Vudoos would get within 2 and it looked like a come back was brewing the OOFF! managed to score another. In the end we suffered a 9-4 loss. The Vudoos were clearly hurt by the absence of Charlie Amann, JR Booth, Ron Rizzo, and Ted Sweeney. Next Game Wednesday October 10th - 10:30pm vs. Sewer Rats.   Let's regroup and take it to 'em boys!

September 30, 2007:  The Vudoos returned to form as they took control of the game despite taking 6 penalties. The Vudoos matched the number of penalties by scoring 6 goals.

Charlie Amann and Greg Brand added third period goals, and the Vudoos went on to win 6-3. The new lines worked well tonight, we'll keep them this way, and hopefully we will continue with a formidable offence, and the excellent back checking. Next Game Thursday October 4th - 10:30pm vs. OOFF!

September 23, 2007:  The Vudoos suffered their first loss of the season 5-2 to the Sewer Rats. Not much to be said on this game, other than we were out played through out most of the game. Next Game Sunday September 30th - 8:00PM vs. Rink Rats.

September 17, 2007:  Charlie Amann scores 4, and Jason Simon nets a hat trick in 10-4 domination of the Mighty Perch. Sorry, I accidentally deleted the original game summary!!

September 13, 2007:  The Vudoos have opened the fall season in style with a 5-1win over the 2007 summer season champions the OOFF! The OOFF! took a 1-0 lead early in the first, but that was all they were able to get by Vudoo goalie Pete Peterson. The Vudoos went on to score 5 unanswered goals, two in the second and three in the third. The Vudoos played with confidence and the 5 goals came from 5 different players. Next game is Monday September 17th - 10:40PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

June 25, 2007: Well guys...We didn't win it all, but it was sure fun trying. Thanks to all for a great season. I have already received many replies for the fall and with the return of Rick Anderson and Kurt Seidel, plus the addition of Charlie Amann, the Vudoos Fall/Winter team is looking like the best ever. Have a great summer...See you in September!! Tom G.

June 23, 2007: Game 2 did not go as planned. The Vudoos 8 skaters were no match for the Rink Rats in this one, and we lost in a big way. The final score was 7-1. Pork Bothers suffered a broken and badly cut finger late in the second period, but was able to continue. Bothers is unsure if he can play on Monday night, but assured us that he will be there if he can play or not. FINAL GAME IS MONDAY JUNE 25TH AT 8:15PM

June 21, 2007: Game 1 of the finals was the Dimock & Peterson show...George Dimock scored all 3 goals in the 3-0 win vs The Rink Rats. Vudoo goalie Pete Peterson put on an unbelievable performance stopping all 31 of Rink Rats shots, coming up with some HUGE saves. JR Booth found a new way to stay of of the penalty box...he wasn't there! The whole Vudoo team fore checked and back checked for the entire game and forced many turnovers. The Vudoos are now one win away from the Spring Championship. GAME 2: Saturday June 23rd. 7:15PM.

June 16, 2007: The Vudoos put together an impressive performance for a 8-2 first round playoff victory. The Vudoos had a team high 60 shots on goal. George Dimock, JR Booth, and Tom Godon each had two goals, with Pork Bothers and Jason Simon getting one each. The win puts the Vudoos in the finals, GAME 1 THURSDAY JUNE 21st 8:45PM.

June 13, 2007: The Vudoos 2007 regular spring season ended in a 4-2 loss to the Perch, and a second place tie with the Perch as well. With 2:06 remaining a fight broke out at center ice resulting in a game misconduct for Charlie Amann. The good news is, that Perch Ex-Con Ridley will also be serving a 1 game suspension and will not be playing in our first round play-off game against the Perch. The Vudoo goals were scored by Amann and Sweeney. Next game: Play-off game 1 - Saturday June 16th 8:15PM.

June 10, 2007: Brand and Godon scored for the Vudoos, and although the winning streak ends at 2 games, our undefeated streak is alive at 3. JR Booth managed to pretty much locked down the PIM title for the spring season posting 14 penalty minutes in the game. After a long layoff, Kevin Colgan retured and put up an assist on Brand's goal, apparently the skating lessons paid off! Pork Bothers got his second assist of the season on Brand's goal as well. George Dimock earned his team leading 12th point of the season on a long center ice pass to Godon who put it passed the Sewer Rat goalie to put the Vudoos up 2-1. The Sewer Rats managed a third period goal to even things up at 2. Next game (the final regular season game) is Wednesday June 13th 9:55PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

May 30, 2007: The Vudoos played a great game with 2 goals by George Dimock, one from Pat Morrison, and the game winner by Jason Simon. Godon added a short handed empty netter to finish off the Rink Rats with a 5-3 win. Next Game is Sunday June 10th  8:30PM vs. The Sewer Rats.

May 19, 2007: JR Booth and Charlie Amann took charge and dominated in this one. Both JR and Charlie had two goals and two assists by feeding each other perfect passes in front of the Perch goal. George Dimock got the Vudoos going with a goal early in the first when he received a perfect pass from Greg Brand. After that it was all Booth and Amann. The only penalty in the game went to Dimock for hooking a Perch! Next Game is Wednesday may 30th at 10:15PM vs. Rink Rats Bring $$ to support the JR Booth Fight Fund!!!

May 10, 2007: The Vudoos just could not get going in this one, and were handed a big 6-1 loss by the Perch. Next Game is Saturday May 19th at 6:30PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

May 4, 2007: The Vudoos can't seem to get by the OOFF! this Spring. The 2 goals by Charlie Amann, and 1 by George Dimock were just not enough, as the OOFF! scored 2 in each period handing the Vudoos a 6-3 loss. Next Game is Thursday May 10th 9:55PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

April 26, 2007: Once again the Vudoos out skated and out played the Sewer Rats. The Vudoos scored 4 times in the first, on goals from Dimock, Godon, Len, and Brand. With a comfortable 4-0 lead the Vudoos allowed two goals in the second period making it a 4-2 game. Godon added 2 more in the third on perfect setup passes from Dimock, and the Vudoos went on to win 6-2. Next game is Friday May 4th 8:30PM.

April 18, 2007: Not a whole lot to write about for this one. Vudoos lose 4-0 despite many scoring opportunities. JR Booth and two Rink Rats received 5 minutes for fighting and a game misconduct near the end of the third period, after a collision with goalie Pete Peterson. Rink Rat #2 who before the game promised a cleaner season was tossed for punching JR in the back of the head several times. JR, not knowing who did it, turned around and hit #23, #23 then hit JR back. The referees stated afterwards that no major penalties or misconducts would have been given if #2 did not start it. And so goes our recent history with the Rink Rats. Next game is Thursday April 26th 8:05PM vs. Sewer Rats.

April 15, 2007: For the first two periods the Vudoos were able to hold the OOFF! to one goal. The OOFF! then added 3 in the third period to the Vudoos 1 third period goal by Gary Len, handing the Vudoos their first loss of the season 4-1.

April 9, 2007: The Vudoos started off the Spring season in style, by shutting out the Fall-Winter champion Sewer Rats 2-0. Pete Peterson kept the Vudoos in the game by stopping all 21 of the Sewer Rats shots. Tom Godon scored in the first period and George Dimock added the second Vudoo goal in the second period. The Vudoos played arguably the best game I have seen them play. They moved the puck well, and did a fantastic job of both fore checking and back checking. The Vudoos welcome back George Dimock and Ted Sweeny, and also welcome new player Charlie Amann. Next Game is Sunday April 15 - 8:45PM vs. OOFF!

March 15, 2007: The Vudoos fought back from 1 goal deficits twice on goals by Kevin Colgan, (Thursday nights locker room funny man), and Kurt Seidel. After a 5 minute overtime period the game was supposed to go to a shootout, but a referee error in a previous game forced a second overtime period. The Vudoos fought  hard a missed on several chances, and just as it looked like we were going to a shootout, it all came crashing down with just 24 seconds remaining in the second overtime period as the Perch were able to stuff one past goalie Pete Peterson. The Vudoos had some healthy scratches for the game, most notably Jason Simon, who was reported last seen at a Celine Dion concert in Las Vegas. Well, that's it for the Fall/Winter season. See you in the Spring.......

March 11, 2007: The Vudoos out skated, out shot, and simply out played the Rink Rats to keep their championship hopes alive. Tom Godon scored with 8:40 left in the first period to put the Vudoos up 1-0. The Rink Rats answered back with 3:47 left in the first. But 1 minute 55 seconds later Godon scored again to put the Vudoos up 2-1. Kurt Seidel added 1 in the second period, and Godon got his third goal with 2:07 left in the game. Next Game Thursday March 15 - 10:00PM vs The Mighty Perch.

March 5, 2007: It's do or die for the Vudoos. After losing the first round game to The Mighty Perch 8-4, we now must win on Saturday to keep our championship hopes alive. Round 2 game is Saturday March 10 - 8:00PM.

February 27, 2007: For the first time in a while the Vudoos did not take a single penalty, but it did not help as the OOFF! handed us a 5-3 loss in the final game of the regular season. Playoffs begin March 4th, our schedule has yet to be determined, but we should be playing the Rink Rats. The Vudoos had a 3-3 record vs. the Rink Rats this season.

February 21, 2007: Round 2 of the Vudoos vs. Rink Rats battle goes to the Vudoos. The Vudoos took a 1-0 with 1:53 left in the first period on a goal from Rick Anderson. Tom Godon scored 11 seconds later putting the Vudoos up 2-0. The Rink Rats scored 1 in the second making it a 2-1 game. Gary Len added a third for the Vudoos putting us up 3-1. The Rink Rats scored 1 more, but the Vudoos were able to hold on for the 3-2 win. The penalty kill was awesome tonight, as the Vudoos had to play 4 minutes and 31 seconds short handed, as Jason Simon was given a 5 minute major and game misconduct early in the third period. This was the second game misconduct for a Vudoo player in two games. Godon took an interference penalty with 1:31 left in the game. The penalty kill was again awesome, and as he has done so many times in the past, goalie Pete Peterson save the game for us with some spectacular saves. Next and final regular season game is Tuesday February 27th at 9:55PM  vs. OOFF!

February 19, 2007: Rumor has it that the WWF has been trying to contact Kurt Seidel after hearing about his performance Monday night. The only thing missing were the ropes for Kurt to climb on before pouncing on his opponent! Trailing 4-2, we tried pulling goalie Pete Peterson with 1:45 remaining in the game, but the plan backfired, and Peterson let in an empty net goal! All kidding aside, although the score did not reflect it, it was a hard fought game.

February 11, 2007: Greg Brand scored twice, giving the Vudoos 1-0 and 2-1 leads. Substitute goalie Andrew Mosuly made some huge saves to keep the game close. But the Sewer Rats were able to beat Mosuly twice in the second period and again in the third to take a 4-2 win. Next games are Monday February 19th - 10:30PM and Wednesday February 21st - 10:40PM, both vs. the Rink Rats.

February 5, 2007: Kurt Seidel lead the Vudoos with 4 goals and 2 assists on the night, but it was Pork Bothers with the game winner on a beautiful centering pass from Kevin Colgan with 1:16 remaining in the second period. Seidel scored again with just 36 seconds left in the second period, and the Vudoos took a 5-0 lead into the third. The Perch scored three unanswered goals in the first 2 minutes and 20 seconds of the third, but the Vudoos tightened up their play and shut down the Perch for the rest of the game. The Vudoos also added three more goals in the third giving them a well earned 8-3 victory. Next Game Sunday February 11 - 9:40PM vs. Sewer Rats.

January 28, 2007: Gary Len had the hot hands in this one, getting a Hat Trick and an assist for a 4 point game. The Vudoos took a 4-2 lead into the second period, and a 6-4 lead into the third. Going into the third period it looked as if it would be an easy win. But the Rink Rats scored 4 in the third and held the Vudoos scoreless. As a team, the Vudoos out-played the Rink Rats all game. If not for Rink Rat #2 who had 7 of the 8 goals, the Vudoos would have had an easy game. The Vudoos went undefeated for the month of December, and now winless for the month of January. With 5 games in February, we need to pull it together to make a playoff run. We have beat every other team this season, so there is no reason we cannot be contenders for the Championship. Next Game Monday February 5 - 9:55PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

January 22, 2007: The Vudoos were unable to shut down the OOFF! offense, as the OOFF! score 4 times in the first and once each in the second and third periods. The Vudoos were able to get on the board in the second period with goals from Greg Brand and J.R. Booth, Rick Anderson added another in the third period. Making it a 6-3 final. Tempers flared in the third period when the OOFF!'s #27 began taking much more obvious than usual cheap shots at the Vudoo players. After taking a run at Hoth and ending up on the ice in what looked like a lot of bad acting of a knee injury, #27 got up and basically erupted in multiple profanities towards the Vudoo players. #27 continued off the ice in a very un-sportsman like conduct, yelling profanities and threats towards Hoth and goalie Pete Peterson. Next game Sunday January 28 9:40PM vs. The Rink Rats.

January 14, 2007: The Sewer Rats took a 1-0 lead just 2 minutes and 13 seconds into the game, but the Vudoos scored 4 unanswered goals (3 in the first period 1 in the second period) to go up 4-1. The sewer Rats then scored 1 more in the second making it a 4-2 game. The Sewer Rats kept the pressure up, well, #37 did as he added 2 in the third to tie the game at 4-4. The Vudoos were able to hold off the Sewer Rats for the rest of the game, but were unable to score despite many chances, including hitting the post/cross bar 3 times. Pete Peterson had a great game making some spectacular saves and keeping the game close. Next game Monday January 22 - 9:55PM vs. OOFF!

January 7, 2007: After a winning 3 straight, and going undefeated in 4 straight, the Vudoos fell to the Perch 7-4. Overall it was a well played game, but the 6 Vudoo penalties hurt the offensive effort, as the Perch scored 4 power play goals. Defenseman and team captain, Tom Thrun showed amazing offense prowess going end to end twice and scoring on both efforts. Tom's offensive efforts sparked what looked like a come back for the Vudoos, but two Vudoo penalties with 1:47 remaining in the game killed all offensive hope. Next game Sunday January 14 - 8:55PM vs. Sewer Rats.

December 21, 2006: The curse that has been haunting Fred Hoth and The Vudoos all season has finally been broken. This game marked the first win with Hoth in the game. The RAT made his season debut and got two assists on the night. The Vudoos held on to beat the OOFF! 3-2. All three Vudoos goals were scored by Tom Godon, giving Godon his second Natural Hat Trick in three games. It was the Vudoos 3rd win in a row, and 4th straight unbeaten. The Vudoos are undefeated for the month of December! Pete Peterson returned to the goal after being out one game with a knee injury, and he performed superbly making some huge saves to protect the lead all game. The entire Vudoo team played a great game, things are really coming together going into the holiday break, let's keep it rolling! Next game: January 7th 9:50PM vs. The Mighty Perch.

December 17, 2006: Hoth was out again, Vudoos win again, I'm sensing a pattern here! Another great effort by the Vudoos. Brand, Godon, and Anderson all scored to lift the Vudoos to a 3-2 win over The Rink Rats. The Vudoos played a very disciplined game, the defense was solid and the back-checking by the offense was a great help in holding off The Rink Rats. Most notably was Greg Brand's back-checking effort with less than a minute to go in the game, where he dove head first towards the boards knocking the puck away from a Rink Rat player who would have had a great scoring chance. Dean Bogner filled in for goalie Pete Peterson, who was sidelined with a knee injury. Peterson is listed as day to day. Next Game: Thursday December 21 - 9:55PM vs. OOFF!

December 14, 2006: First we'll get the obvious out of the way...Hoth was out, Vudoos win, curse continues. Now for the game details...Godon scored a natural Hat Trick netting the first three Vudoo goals, all three on Power Plays. Showing great puck control, Rick Anderson scored on a second period Penalty Shot. Gary Len got the game winner when he broke a 4-4 tie in the third period. Kurt Seidel put the game away with 5:09 left, as the Vudoos went on to win 6-4. Next Game: Sunday December 17 - 10:15PM vs. The Rink Rats.

December 3, 2006: After a fast start and an eventual 4-1 lead, the Vudoos could not hold off the Perch and had to settle for a 4-4 tie. The game marked the first of the season where Fred Hoth played and the Vudoos did not lose. Congrats Fred!!! Game highlights included some spectacular save by Pete Peterson and Kurt Seidel's second short handed goal of the season. Next game is Thursday December 14 11:05PM vs. Sewer Rats.

November 22, 2006: Well, not much to say 'bout this one...Happy Thanksgiving!! Next game Sunday December 3rd. 9:45PM.

November 15, 2006: Pete Peterson made some huge saves to keep the Vudoos in the game. With a few more skaters, it would have been a different game, as the Vudoos played tough all night and a lot of back-checking and blocked shots by our offense, along with Pete's performance kept us in the game all night. The game ended in a 3-1 loss, so the curse of Fred may finally be broken. The curse will be put to the test again on Wednesday November 22nd. at 10:30PM vs. OOFF!.

November 12, 2006: For the superstitious out there, "The Curse of Fred Hoth" was further proven against the Sewer Rats. This was the fourth game that Hoth has missed this season, and the fourth win for the Vudoos, it also marked the first Vudoo win against the Sewer Rats this season. Down 4-2 in the third period, Kurt Seidel scored a short handed goal on a breakaway. From that point on the Sewer Rats seemed to be out of synch. J.R. Booth scored his first of the season to tie the game at 4. Godon scored the game winner with 3:53 remaining on a heads up pass from Pork Bothers. Despite getting up at 3am to fly home from Florida, Pete Peterson once again made some huge saves to keep the game close. The Sewer Rats pulled their goalie, but the Vudoos great defensive work held them off, the final score was Vudoos 5 Server Rats 4. Next game is Wednesday November 15th at 10:00pm vs. The Rink Rats.

November 2, 2006: The GAS Line exploded! Godon(4 goals-1 assist), Anderson(2 goals-2 assists), and Seidel(1 goal-5 assists) combined for 15 points, but despite the effort, the Vudoos fell to the Mighty Perch 9-8. The Vudoos fell behind early, but one minute later Fred Hoth scored his first goal of the season tying it at 1-1. The Perch then scored 3 more and took a 4-1 lead. The Vudoos then scored three in a span of 1 minute 10 seconds to close out the first period in a 4-4 tie.  The Perch scored two more in the second giving them a 6-4 lead going into the third period. The Vudoos scored early in the third, but the Perch added 3 more in the third giving them a 9-5 lead. But the Vudoos fought back scoring 2 more goals in 25 seconds, then they pulled the goalie and added 1 more with 1:45 remaining making it a 9-8 game. A missed off-side call on the Perch with about 25 seconds remaining took away the last chance of tying the game. Next game is Sunday November 12th at 10:00PM vs. The Sewer Rats.

October 26, 2006: After taking a 1-0 lead into the second period, and a 1-1 tie into the third period, the Vudoos could not hold off the OOFF!s offensive effort in the third period. The Vudoos dominated the first period and controlled the puck well, Jason Simon scored just 4 minutes into the game, with assists coming from Godon and Anderson. The game ended with a 4-1 Vudoo loss. Next game is Thursday November 2 at 10:25PM.

October 19, 2006: This time the Sewer Rats gave us a goalie to shoot at but we still only managed 10 shots on goal. The Vudoos lost to the Sewer Rats for the second time this season, this time it was 6-0. Pork Bothers managed to get the Vudoos only stat for the game, a two minute slashing penalty in the third period, which was then followed by a stick throwing fit of rage. Unfortunately the stick was thrown into his own bench, Greg Brand was hit, but not injured. Not much else to say about this one. next game is Thursday October 26th at 10:25PM vs. OOFF!

October 15, 2006: The Vudoos won their 3rd game of the season, beating the Rink Rats 6-5. Rick Anderson scored three goals including the eventual game winner. Anderson has scored all 3 game winning goals. The Vudoos played well throughout the game, and only had 8 skaters to the Rink Rats 12. Greg Brand, not only managed to stay out of the penalty box, but also got a goal and an assist. Brand still leads the Vudoos in PIM with 8. The Vudoos even killed off a 2 minute 5 on 3 when Anderson and Godon both took penalties at the same time for two unrelated incidents. The Vudoos took a penalty with 1:50 to go in the game, the Rink Rats pulled their goalie but the Vudoos managed to hold off the 6 on 4 and take the win. The game also marked the official return of Jason Simon, who had a great game on defense. Next game is Thursday October 19 at 10:50PM against the Sewer Rats.

October 11, 2006: The 4-3 loss to The Sewer Rats does not look as bad on paper as it did in the game. Godon, Seidel, and Booth scored to get the game tied at three, but The Sewer Rats scored with just 37 seconds left in the game. The Vudoos pulled the goalie and put on a sixth attacker in an attempt to tie the game, but did not manage to score. The Sewer Rats had no goalie, but the Vudoos could not manage to get enough shots. We'll all try to forget this one and look ahead to Sunday's game against the Rink Rats. Game time is 10:00PM.

October 5, 2006: Kurt Seidel has found a comfortable home on the GAS line scoring 3 goals against The Mighty Perch. Rick Anderson scored his second game winner in as many games, and Godon added another. Pete Peterson once again stood on his head to make the saves and held the Perch scoreless until the third period. Greg Brand has retaken his seat at the top of the PIM leader board with a big night and 6 minutes in the box. Brand's on ice rage was fueled by an all day celebration of the Tigers victory over the Yankees, several beers may have also contributed to his actions. Both teams had a short bench with only 8 skaters, but the Vudoos were the better conditioned team as they out skated the Perch all night, and out shot the Perch 41-24. Next game is Wednesday October 11th at 10:25PM vs. the Sewer Rats.

September 27, 2006: The Vudoos improved their record to 1-1 with a 3-2 victory over the previously undefeated OOFF!. The "GAS Line" (Godon, Anderson, Seidel) combined for all three Vudoo goals. Kurt Seidel tied the game at 1-1 in the first, and then tied the game again at 2-2 in the second period. Rick Anderson scored the game winner with just 2:33 remaining in the game on a cross ice pass from Godon. Pete Peterson in his newly custom fit jersey was spectacular in net allowing just 2 goals on 36 shots. We won't mention that the second OOFF! goal was off a clearing pass from Peterson who went into the corner and sent the puck  right on to the stick of an OOFF! player leaving the net wide open....Oops...I guess I did mention it! Next game is Thursday October 5th at 10:50PM, which will mark the "official" return of Jason Simon who missed the first game recovering from NMLSS,  (No More Little Simon Surgery). NOTE: Previous game against the Whalers did not count, stats were adjusted accordingly.

September 25, 2006: In a game that DID NOT COUNT, the Vudoos were schooled by the B-League Whalers. The Vudoos were out shot, 52-10 in the 6-0 loss. There is really not much else to say, other than if it were not for Pete Peterson's acrobatics and quick catching glove it would have been far worse. The game did mark the return of Vudoo star right wing Rick Anderson who has not played since "The Nikki Incident" on May 22nd. On hand in the sell out crowd to watch and drink some beer was none other than The Rat. The Rat is on the DL until sometime later this season when he and his blistering slap shot will be a welcome addition to the lineup. Next game is Wednesday September 27th at 10:25PM vs. OOFF!

September 17, 2006:  Looking good in the new uniforms for the season opener did not help. The Vudoos fell behind the Perch 1-0 just 11 seconds into the game. With about 5 minutes to go in the first period, the Perch scored again making it 2-0. But at 4:45, Tom Godon got the Vudoos on the board with a deflection off a shot from the point from Fred Hoth. Hoth's hopes of leaving the curse of old number 22 behind look to be working out. Long live number 3!! With just 49 seconds remaining in the first period, Kurt Seidel scored on a loose rebound off a couple of close range shots by Godon. That was the end of Vudoo scoring for the night, as the Perch added 2 in the second, and 3 in the third. The final score was 7-2. Next game is Monday September 25 at 11:05PM.

August 22, 2006: Our new jerseys are in production, and with a little luck, will be ready in time for the first game, cost is yet to be determined. Speaking of the first game, the Fall/Winter season is set to begin on September 11, 2006, although the schedule has not been released. Tom Godon will be attending the Captains meeting on August 28. Cost for the Fall/Winter season has been increased to $595, which includes insurance and a BSA issued jersey. Of course we will not need the jersey, so at this time each player will receive a $15 credit for the Pro Shop. The Fall/Winter season will be 24 games plus double elimination playoffs.

June 20, 2006: A few soft calls by the referees and two Power play goals by AA helped put an end to the Vudoos season in round one of the playoffs. The Alcoholics Anonymous struck first with a goal at 12:55 of the first period. Tom Godon answered back 35 seconds later with a wraparound goal. AA scored two more in the first making it a 3-1 game. At 13:23 of the second period, Godon scored his second of the game after blocking a shot and creating a breakaway for himself. AA came back with another goal just 36 seconds later making it 4-2. At 8:42 of the second The Rat scored on an blistering 8.5 MPH slap shot from the point, after the puck went tumbling under the goalie's right leg in what looked like a slow motion replay, it almost reached the back of the net. AA scored again at 6:07 making it a 5-3 game. Pat Morrison brought The Vudoos within one goal again just 24 seconds later. AA added three more in the third period, while the Vudoos could only get one more with Godon's third of the game on a perfect centering pass from J.R. Booth. The final score was 8-5. Other important game notes, were the great penalty killing efforts of Pork Bothers, and great back-checking and fore-checking on the part of the Vudoo offense. HAVE A GREAT SUMMER, SEE YOU IN SEPTEMBER.

June 14, 2006: Coming off a win one week earlier the Vudoos only chance to climb out of the basement was to win against the Rink Rats. The Rink Rats went up 1-0 at 12:52 of  the first period. Less than one minute later Fred Hoth tied it up with a rare goal against the opposing goalie. The puck came back to Hoth at the right point, and with the skill and accuracy of Minnesota Fats on a pool table, Hoth banked one in off the knee of a Rink Rat defender. Game On...well, no, not really, as The Rink Rats, or is that "RINGER RATS", went on to score 10 more unanswered goals. The final score was 11-1. Rumor has it, that the Vudoos were just building playoff confidence in the rest of the league, and are set to make an impressive playoff run. After a 2-7-1 regular season, the only question that remains is, Who's bringing beer to the next game?

June 7, 2006: In what was certainly not a goalie or defensive battle, the Vudoos won their second game of the Spring season, and their second 1 goal win against the Mighty Perch. Greg Brand got things started early with a first period goal at 11:43. The Perch tied it at 3:46, and took a 2-1 lead at 1:40 of the first period.
