Week 3 Summary

Another great week for the books GM's!  Sorry for this late and shortened post, but I'm closing our books for Q3 at work.  We now only have one undefeated team, Legion of Doom, whom I think has a giant target on his back now.  He flew by Keep Calm and Bergeron to keep his undefeated streak alive for at least one more week.  Moulson ICE threw another loss towards 18 Wheeler to continue his perfect losing streak!  Legen...Wait For It...Dary snaps her win less streak to deal Mötley Krüg her first loss of the season.  Jesus Krejci, My Team Sucks! takes down the dynasty that is St. Pappys in a heated battle for the ages!  Team Pastorella gets an easy win in the father-son match-up against Fresh Prince of Briere.  Don't Toews Me Bro throws some heat late in the match-up against Team burd for his first win of the season.

Now for some highlights!

First, the headline of the week goes to Jesus Krejci, My Team Sucks! for bringing down the titan, the defending champion, the terror from the West, the league's arch nemesis, the dynasty known as St. Pappys!  Thankfully we captured the leagues reaction to this momentous occasion...

League Reaction to St. Pappys First Defeat

Even St. Pappys was applauding Jesus Krejci, My Team Sucks! for his groundbreaking win in this nail biter of a match....

St. Pappys Reaction To His Loss

What great sportsmanship from the defending champion!  We were also able to catch his reaction on Friday night after seeing his 6 players incapable of making up the deficit Jesus Krejci put between them...

St. Pappy's Friday Night Reaction

Now it occurs to me that we have some new comers to our league that may need some explanations to fully capture what this moment meant for all of us.  Since starting a fantasy hockey league 5 seasons ago St. Pappys has won our championship 3 out of 5 times, and the other 2 he lost in the finals for a major upset.  He's notorious for leading the West in just about ever category!  We have even changed league rules multiple times between seasons to try and level the playing field for us all, but day in and day out St. Pappys steam rolls through our league and snatches Lord Stanley from all of our grips.  He's just that damn good, but every now and then he's brought back down to earth by an unlikely hero, and this times our hero's name is.... Jesus Krejci, My Team Sucks But Yours Is S-Oshie-t!  Our hero came Streit Outta Compton! Stepan up to his Edler that is, St. Pappys, to hit him with his Kane right in the Kunitz, and erick-SSON of a B-wiercIo-T-CH it worked!  Jesus Krejci.... it worked!  (it's a lot harder than you think to try and come up with a positive way to use team member's names for this!!!!).  Anyhow, Jesus Krejci must have mentioned the right guy in his team name because he won this match with last minute heroics rallying since Tuesday for this tight victory that sent St. Pappys Chiasson his tail picking up scrubs to make up the deficit on Friday!  (hint there... Chiasson was a -5 TOTAL for St. Pappys this week).  Be prepared Jesus Krejci.... St. Pappys now has an enemy in you!

St. Pappys Looking at Their Re-match (Week of Dec. 30th)

Now our second highlight ropes in two match-ups.  First, a win by the undefeated Legion of Doom against Keep Calm and Bergeron.  Second, a win for Legen...Wait For It... Dary against Mötley Krüg!  I'll need to explain here... My team is Legion of Doom and Legen... Wait For It... Dary is my wife.  Keep Calm and Bergeron is one of my best friends, and former high school roommate, and Mötley Krüg is his soon to be wife!  So this week we had a two way match-up to rule the couples world of our league! 

Legion of Doom and Legen... Wait For It... Dary both took the lead on day 1 and simply never looked back!

(Don't worry Edina... I'm the Dog in this picture! haha)

In an awesome week of domination Legion of Doom and Legen... Wait For It... Dary snapped both Keep Calm and Bergeron and Mötley Krüg undefeated streaks!  Finally in Legion....Wat For It... Dary fashion, the mightiest of high-fives sealed the victories in the couples bout!

Legion of Doom and Legen... Wait For It... Dary Mightiest High-Five

Look for the couples rematch the week of Dec. 30th (apparently that week will be filled with EPIC rematches!)

Amazing week GM's!
