Comeback Kids shoot down red hot Aces 6-0 and sweep season series.

The Flying Aces called up Nick Mileo and Chris Anderson from the Perkasie Red Barons. Mike Petersen, Josh Lovering and Mark Herzhauser were healthy scratches. Darren Jones, Ryan Bleck, Derik Weaver and Mike Gianetti played sick. 
The first period was tight. Aces' goalie Nick Minarik stopped all but one shot at the end of the period. Minarik continued to be a shining star throughout the game.  In the second and third, the first place Comeback kids put in 5 unanswered goals. Craig Jones and Chris Anderson spent some quality time in the penalty box. Matt Stockwell showed serious speed when he bursted down the ice and stopped a Comeback Kid break away. Stockwell also ripped a nasty slapper at 'The Kids' goalie. But the save was made.
Team Sponsor Bill Melick hung with the boys before the game and drank with them after the loss.  Center, Matt Donahue gave some 'Ace Case' left-overs to members of the Comeback Kids. Many Aces were not happy with this. But Captain D. Jones said, "If he gets read of those stupid green shorts, I'll let it go." 
The Flying Aces play a Smoke team that hasn't won a game this season, on Monday, April 7. A win will put The Aces back above .500. It should be noted that the Aces have never beat Smoke in a regular season game.
