A new year, another loss

The Red Army dropped to 2-5-1 after last night's drubbing by Kelly's 6-1. The Army was still on the Christmas break when the game started. "We were a little flat," Said Perry Marto. Steve Palmiscno added, "The only thing flatter is a dead skunk on the Trans-Canada Highway!" The Army was without their coach Terry Paukert. Paukert is in Ufa, Russia looking for talent to bring into the Army. Paukert said via Skype, "I have watched every game over here. There is no one in this tourney that could even replace Norman. What is going on with hockey development in the world!" Steve Olson was the only Army player to score last night. His floating backhand alluded the Kelly's goalie mid way through the second period. It was the only highlight for the Army. Goaltender Eric Melland ended with 9 saves.
