Game 1 - Bandits 3, Lunatics 0
Game 2 - Bandits 8, Lunatics 1
The first game was a very good defensive game, scoreless well into the second half. Bandits capitalized on a power play, then took advantage of a Lunatics mistake on a 3 on 2, coming back the other way on a 3 on 2 of their own and capitalizing. Added an empty net goal for the win. Second game was all bandits. teams traded early goals and then the bandits put in 2 more before halftime. Another goal early by the bandits and then a major penalty by the Lunatics during which the bandits scored 4 goals iced the game. Lots of penalties in both games. Bandits powerplay was very impressive and the Lunatics only goal came short-handed despite having a fair amount of chances. Brett Leggat was very impressive in both games making some big saves, including more than one on big Ying who was more than a little frustrated. Harrisburg could have easily stolen the first game, but with the Bandits missing 2 world class players along with another very good player and also Plaugher lol... they are going to be a hard team to match up with all season long... Jimmy Readstreake will be making a case for MVP if he keeps scoring big goals like he did today...
Lunatics will be very motivated after these games and will come out with something to prove next time these teams meet...
