Army wins last game!

In front of a sold out Gambucci Arena of 52 people the Red Army Franchise defeated the Buschwackers 4-1 to close out a glorious career of really bad hockey. The Army got goal from Lance Norman, Chad Swendseid, Mike Anderson and Steve Knipe. So the trivia answer is Steve Knipe. He scored the last goal for the Army. The Army had a full 3 lines. Terry Paukert, Perry Marto and Chad Hanson all suited up. Chad came from the Fargo area to play for the first time in 20-some years. STARS OF THE GAME: 5th Star- Mike Mckay- Never played a game for the Army, but sent a 30-pack of Busch Light for the Army's game. Good old Central Redskin that always wanted to play a game for the Army. 4th Star- The Pauk- The 60-something guy can still do it. He had the toe drag going hard. 3rd Star- Chad Hanson- Had to borrow equipment to play. Thought of only playing a few shifts but never skipped a shift. And only fell 4 or 5 times! 2nd Star- Kurt Comeau- If you were in the locker room you know why! 1st Star- The BOUCHER FAMILY- The Army is so glad that all you you were there. It was a very special night. We all miss Len. The Army hopes that night helped in healing. Lenny was one of a kind and was the RED ARMY. Thanks for being there!

    What a great time. I always enjoyed playing against The Army. Trivia question number 2. The last player to score against The Red Army was Denny Flaagan. Go figure.

    A big THANK YOU to the Red Army Team. Wednesday night was a night that will be forever remembered. You helped us celebrate Len's life through many kind gestures. He loved playing for the Red Army with his friends over the past 30 years. Thank you SO much. Deb, Ty and Syd
