(West Seneca, NY) On Thursday, February 14, Valentine's Day (adding even more irony to the story) Spider defensemen Tom Hellert took time from his rehabilitation from major heart surgery and paid a suprise visit to his teamates before their game versus the Wildcats.
Upon his exit shortly before the game, one spider declared, "we should dedicate the score to old 42!" Team Captain Harry Wahl agreed, however noted, that taking the far (home) bench would be best for obvious reasons...
The game was hard fought as the Wildcats played a stiff defensive trap (hear that Tony, A TRAP, A GOD FORESAKEN TRAP!!!)
So, with about 30 seconds left in a 3-2 game and with the Wildcats goalie pulled for an extra attacker, defensemen Richie Tonge scored on a long slow backhander from behind the Spider blueline, making the score: 4-2!
THAT ONE WAS FOR YOU TOMMY!!!!
editors note: with about 5 seconds left, Grundtisch scored another emptynetter, but, considering the crack scoring table did not change the scoreboard, it doesn't really matter now does it??? (until tiebreakers, right Hartz!?)
