Blades’ lead reduced in Sunday night league

November 2, 2017 · 0 Comments

After six weeks of action, two teams are beginning to pull away from the rest of the pack in the Sunday Night Hockey League.
Oct. 22 saw the Ken’s Lawnmower Repair Blades fail to win for the first time in the campaign. They were held to a 3-3 draw by the St. Louis Bar and Grill Wings. The Blades came away from the evening still in first place with 11 points, but their lead was cut to one. The Inside Out Family Chiropractic Predators blanked the Ainsley Fire Protection Fire to tighten their grip on second place.
The other two matches that evening saw the Caledon Hills Brewing Co. Brewers beat the Mr. Handyman Ice Hogs, while the Pommies Cider Co. Wild got by the Glen Eagle Golf Club Griffins.
