Danbury Whalers sunk by 9 HARPOONS planted into them by the Brooklyn Aviators, 9-2.

 It was raining last night in Danbury but it wasn't rain this time, it was raining hockey pucks by the buckets full. Seems as if Danbury left their umbrella's at home and ended up soaked.

 I'll give you the scoring by each period but forget the penalties, I would need 3 or 4 pages just for them alone. It was like watching a street hockey game with no rules. The Whalers have nothing over the BlueFins for sure, last night they were the champs of cheap shots.

First Period scoring was as follows: Aviators #7C Watson at 1:42, Aviators 20C Felten at the 3:52 mark and Aviators #7C Watson his second on a power play at 7:08. This is how the the first period ended 3-0 Brooklyn.

Second Period scoring as follow: Brooklyn's #20C Felten on a power play and that was all the scoring for that period. Second period ended with Brooklyn having the advantage 4-0. There was almost a hockey game during the second period, who knew?

Third Period scoring: Whaler's #83C Seifert at the 2:21 mark to make the game 4-1 Brooklyn. Aviators #7C Watson scored on a power play goal at the 10:53 mark giving him his HAT TRICK! Aviators #9RW Petriello at the 11:11 mark scored making it 6-1 in favor of the Aviators.

A's #14C Dabkowski hit the net at the 12:14. A's #27RW Mignone found goal at the 13:07 mark making it 8-1 Brooklyn. Ex Whaler #10C Schott hit the net at 15:15 and Whalers #18RW Moffat scored on a shot handed goal making the final score 9-2 Brooklyn!
