It ricochets to Creller who’s got an empty net. He shoots and he sc-- Jakobsen dives to block that. The puck deflects off of Jakobsen to Razin who wrists it high! Tanner’s back standing tall. He gloves it down and gets a whistle. Earlier Jakobsen was playing goaltender there.

Brovalchuk wins the face-off, but off the draw he’s hit by Bubba Nuck. The crowd admires his physical play as he picks up the puck. He’s off to the races beating the Rage defenseman, Constantine. Nuck sidesteps and holds the puck, he fires! James with the blocker stop then he smothers it to get the halt to play.

Another hit after Merica wins the face-off, wow, the game’s getting heated already. You can tell both teams are sick of each other.

However, the puck’s moved back to Razin who quickly passes to Creller. Creller moves into the zone he passes it across to Krivokrasov who passes it to the trailing defenseman, Roy Razin. He slaps the puck! Michael J. Caboose with the block!

Razin gets it again. He throws it on net searching for some life. It’s tipped by Anderson, but Webb dives to block that too. It deflects off Webb to Razin who shoots once more! Simeon Mars III gets down on a knee to block that. That’s gotta sting. Razin’s determined to score as he digs for the puck he fires again! Simeon Mars III slides down to block that again that deflects off of Mars III to Merica and he tries his luck! However, Tanner’s squared to the puck. No rebound.

Brovalchuk wins the face-off back to Drake, he moves it across to Constantine. But, the puck doesn’t get across he fans on it. Grosberg intercepts it and he’s off to the races. He’s on a breakaway! He goes backhand then forehand trying five-hole. James reads that all the way making the save with the pads.

Manhattan gets to the puck and Drake dishes a breakout pass to Ludvigsen. He’s moving on a two one on one with Brovalchuk. Jakobsen holds onto Ludvigsen’s stick and gets the puck. Play’s blown and the refs call a penalty.

Simons wins the face-off back to Stropko and off the draw Merica gives him a little shove. Stropko dishes it to Grosberg who one-times it, but that hits the side of the net. The puck rings around to Michael J. Caboose, he’s leveled by Chuck Goody! Goody gets to the loose puck and passes it to the springing forward, Hawkins!

He’s on a breakaway. He tries to fire the puck high! Tanner shuts him down with the glove save then stares him down.

Simons wins the face-off in the Hamilton zone. However, the Rage’s penalty killers rush on the forecheck. It’s executed properly and Creller passes the puck up to the slot for Hawkins. He one-times it! Tanner absorbs the puck as it hits his chest.

Manhattan didn’t generate anything after that on the powerplay. However, the attack became too much for them resulting in Stropko icing the puck after the Rage’s powerplay ended.

The game begins to intensify.

Brovalchuk wins the face-off in the offensive zone. The Rage try to set up, but they dump it around for a cycle losing the puck. Simons picks it up and moves it up ice to Grosberg who comes streaking in. He throws the puck across the crease looking for Clitsome to tip. He does! James with the great pad save though! Oh my!

Creller wins the face-off and it’s back to Razin who quickly dishes it to Goody. Stropko checks Razin three seconds late then he starts to shove him getting in his face. Refs call Stropko for roughing.
