Bombers Take Possession of AS Cup

When the Bombers and Flying Aces play, the Air Supremacy Cup is always up for grabs. The Flying Aces came up with the idea after the two clubs had built a fun, friendly and competitive rivalry.  Unfortunately for the storied franchise all three games so far have been won by the Aces.  The Bombers were hungry to change that and they did with a dominating 11-4 victory on Thursday.  

Mike Gilbert, Sr perhaps gave the club a little extra motivation by showing up and coaching the club that he still a huge part of although he is not on the ice.  The energy was tangible for Bomber rookie Eric Silverman, who scored 4 goals in the rout.  Tim Tracy had 2 goals and 3 assists. Jean Eric Hoyer' had 2 and 2 and Scott Lundeen provided 4 helpers.  There was plenty of points to go around as all 10 skaters registered at least one point.  Josh Burke backstopped the crew valiantly letting up 2 of the four goals when the outcome was clearly evident and his team had let up off the gas.  

With the win the Bombers/Aces rivalry back on track as the Bombers.  "We played well for sure and the boys really wanted this game." said Bomber goalie Josh Burke, adding "I'm sure the next game will be even more exciting."
