Holy 'Moley

The Whack-a-Moles defeated the Bombers 5-3 in a game that felt much worse than the score indicated.  The game looked to be a mismatch early as the Moles dominated the first few shifts with a barrage of attacking zone pressure. The Bombers seemed to be able to weather the storm and came out of the first only down 1-0.  Eventually the Moles, a recent addition from the Iron league, jumped ahead 4-1 in the contest and the Bombers were never able to make it all the way back.  Three second period Mole goals turned out to be enough for the victory.  Things did get interesting with under 3 mins remaining in the third.  That is when Justin Jensen of the Moles cleared out Rober' in front of the net with a high crosscheck that was met with retaliation from his linemates and Rober' himself.  Jensen perhaps felt the 5-2 lead did not provide enough of a cushion or perhaps he's an idiot.

John Zimnoch had 2 goals, Scott Lundeen had 1goal and 1 assist and JEHoyer' notched 2 assists in the loss.

Game notes:
Bill and Rober' Auld honored "Bomber Flashback Week" with a penalty box appearances at the same time in the same game for the second straight week.
