Army plays better, still losses
The Red Army finally played a complete game, but still lost 6-4 to Kelly's. Kelly's scored an empty net goal with 30 seconds left in the game. The Army battled back from countless deficits to 5-4 with just over 4 minutes to play. Shawn McMillan hammered in a rebound off a laser shot from Todd Schumacher. The Army was lead by Steve Olson's 2 goals. "Finally the Pauk moved me up front and I have tallied 4 goals in two games. I think we would have at least 4 wins if I had played forward all years," said a confident Olson. Steve Palmiscno scored the other goal for the Army. The line of Bill Knipe, Steve Knipe and Len Boucher were a -4 on the night and just couldn't generate any offense. "We thought without Marto being there we would have had a better chance scoring. I guess he is better than we think," said Steve Knipe. Boucher was quick to answer, "It is not Marto, the line struggles with him. I want to be traded." The loss dropped the Army to 2-13-2. The worst record in the history of the Army. With 2 weeks left in the season, two questions still need to be answered. Will the Army win again and will Todd Schumacher score a goal this year. He was rob tonight on a great shot. Tickets are going fast for the next two games.
