WEEKLY POWER RANKINGS

1-15-17

"So there I was, down 10 points..."

11 Joe - Its almost like he hates Brett and purposely does the opposite of what Brett encourages the team to do. Brett says play smart defense, Joe pinches in. Brett says stay in front of Jared, Joe tries to pick off the pass. Game 2 was over in a hurry and Joe was the reason.

10 Brendon - Sure, his slap shot hasn't left the ground in 2 years and everyone knows what play he's going to make before he even does, but with no subs, Brendon hung in there and ground it out. White team just couldnt take advantage of all his mistakes.

9 Demaio - It wasn't from a lack of shooting that's for sure.

8 Billy - Sure, Billy deserves some of the blame for Jared's monster night, but it's his lack of confidence in his shot. Just shoot! It's Saugus hockey. It'll go in.

7 Johnny - I was ready to blow my brains out watching him work the low post into an impossible angle shot resulting in trying to stuff it in on Dave. Maybe it worked once or twice but man is that bad if that's your go to move. Get back to beating goalies with your shot.

6 Elliot - Still struggles with the long shot and it's probably because he refuses to wear goalie pads in net. But he made some grand saves in close and even stopped a 2 on 0 chance. But then that last goal.....

5 Ward - Not a stand out night from Mike but throw in a rare clutch game winner and you have a nice solid performance. He was picking corners on Elliot which was good to see.

4 Dave - He did give up that brutal slow roller from the point to Johnny but other than that, Dave was a tough nut to crack.

3 Brett - His team played fine when he was on defense. They even controlled the play most of the time. But strangely enough it was when their best offensive player went on offense that they suffered.

2 Jared - Has Jared played vs Dave yet this year? Seems his level of competition is on par with the patriots. I hope you know that Joe doesn't think your style of hockey is hockey at all. He doesn't know how you live with yourself. You better hope people continue to take to heart all your complaints in game and just try to keep you happy. That line change you demanded was embarrassingly effective.

1 Nick - A staunch defender of the blueline last night as well as a sniper. Quite the deadly combination. Elliot could have really used someone's like you.
