The FLYING ACES fell to the MULLIGANS Wednesday night
ending a 5 game road trip with a 3-2-0 record. Along with Captain Darren Jones
the short benched ACES were missing Lou Johnson, Eric Kusznier, Bill Marcolini,
Bubba McCabe and Matt Stockwell. Bob Mitchell remained with the team and will
travel back to Flemington for their contest with the BUZZARDS tonight. Mike
Gianetti brought the 'ACE Case'.
The ACE/SHAM-MULLIGAN rivalry has an ugly history and is not
getting better with age. Wednesday's game was a scrappy, penalty filled mess. And
it was getting out of hand. The FLYING ACES alone totaled 10 minutes in the box
with penalties from Bleck, Gianetti, C. Jones, Petersen and Smith. The
MULLIGANS took advantage of the situation scoring 2 powerplay goals. They also
added an empty netter and grabbed a 4-1 win. Kevin Smith scored the loan goal
for the ACES keeping his impressive 8 game streak alive. The loss knocked the
FLYING ACES to 3rd place, tied with CBK.
Tonight the BUZZARDS come to town looking to avenge their season
opening shootout loss. With a 7:30 puck drop, very few seats are
available.
