Kostrowski On Fire

Brian Kostrowski is, dare I say, en fuego. The blueliner has 6 goals in the first four games of the season, eclipsing his total of 5 in the Spring season. 2 of those goals game in a 6-3 dismantling of an upstart Comeback Kids on Sunday. "The surprising thing was they had very little comeback in them." said Bomber keeper Josh Burke, adding "They tried some verbal comebacks but even those were weak."

Burke's comments perhaps reflect the sentiment that the Comeback Kids were not the most sportsmenlike club the Bombers have faced in recent years. As an example, during the middle of the 2nd period the Kids #74 Joe Rega recieved a 2,10 and eventually a game misconduct for mouthing off to the official.

And once it became evident that the Comeback Kids had no shot at the comeback the disrespect continued until eventually a post game handshake was ... well...too much for them to handle. Comments about the Bomber's age classification were fast and furious, but handshakes were not as forthcoming.

The Bombers have been around the block a time or two and as such were unaffected, perhaps also inspired by the fan base that showed up to support the squad. "That was a sellout crowd for us." said the Bomber GM. Even original Bomber captain Paul Kostrowski was in the stands, waving to crowd that revere the Bomber legend.
