Hawks defeat Bettia in overtime
With a high powered slap shot into the upper left corner of the net, Lamoni's Armand Darden sealed the overtime victory for the Hawks. Before this however, it was a highly exciting match to watch, culminating into a 3-3 tie at the end of regulation. Lamonian goals at 20, 35, and 40 minutes into the match were replied with Bettian goals at 22, 30, and 32 minutes. Lamoni has no idea who it will face next, but it would be sweet indeed to snap the Turorian winning streak of two games as of the time of this writing.
Lamoni - 4 Bob Anderson (20, 35), Victor Adams (40), Armand Darden (OT)
Bettia - 3 (22, 30, 32) |

Canucks pick up win over Chacor
After gaining top spot for the second consecutive day, Hockey Canada Canucks are dominating Group A. The funny thing is that the "B" team is playing. The win over Chacor yesterday gave them three points instead of the conditional two. Pat Doyle got two goals firmly establishing himself as the tournement's top scorer while Garret Rank and Nathan Millar got a goal each. Colin Way's stellar play between the pipes for Hockey Canada inspired the team to play well, especially today against hosts Oliverry.
Doyle opened the scoring on a breakaway while Rank ended up scoring on a tip-in on a powerplay. Millar scored on a powerplay while Doyle closed the game with a brilliant deke-play to beat the Chacor goalie knocking the water-bottle off the net and slamming into the glass.
Oliverry won't be easy, nor will Vilita. But a win here and a loss for Limbrogidlia could secure a playoff spot for the Canucks. |

Milchama loses first game in AO hockey tourney looks for redemption in the second game
The Milchama Hockey Warriors lost their first game of the AO hockey tournament yesterday in Oliverry 4-3. Coach Jean Perron said, "Considering our team is a bunch of clones of real players who are playing in the Cherry Cup right now we could do a lot worse."
The game started out well for the Warriors who scored 2 goals in the first period. The first goal was scored by Daniel Erlich who deflected a shot by Raviv Bull at the 14 minute mark. The second goal was a little bit more exciting as Eli Sherbatov deked past 3 defenders before passing the puck off to Mikael Horowitz who easily put the second goal away to make it 2-0 to Milchama. The second period was a lot worse as the Hockey Warriors gave up 3 goals to be down 3-2. The goals were all scored by them so this newspaper has no idea who the goalscorers although we think number 21 was promanently involved. The lone third period was scored by Mikael Horowitz on a penalty shot. And in overtime the Hockey Warriors finally lost it as they could not stop the relentless Jastican attack. Final score Jastica 4-Milchama 3.

Hawks do it again
The Hawks defeated Jastica in overtime 6-5 to remain in second place in group B; and second in the entire tournament (with Hockey Canada and Turori each having 9 pts.). The win follows goals by Armand Darden, Lawrence Bowden, Gerald Douglas, Victor Adams, and Bob Anderson. It was a hard fought match, but it appears that experience; or luck, remained on with the Hawks. Lamoni STILL has no idea who we'll be facing next, but we still think that it would be sweet to halt the Turorians in their tracks. The close finish ensured a very exciting game, with Lawrence Bowden scoring the winning goal for the Hawks.
Lamoni - 6 Armand Darden (2), Lawrence Bowden (5, OT), Gerald Douglas (15), Victor Adams (30), Bob Anderson (60)
Jastica - 5 (20, 25, 30, 35, 40) |

Hawks clinch knockouts spot
With a 5-4 win against Milchama, the Hawks have clinched a knockouts birth, and are within two points of taking first place in Group B. It is also suspected that Turori will be the Hawks next opponent, and a win against them would place them in first place going into the knockouts. Either way, the Hawks have a pretty good looking knockout picture, and should go far. Armand Darden even scored a hat trick in the game.
Lamoni - 5 Armand Darden (5, 17, 28), Victor Kraemer (30), Rob Anderson (57)
Milchama - 4 (40, 55, 58, 59)

Matchday 5 results:
Matchday 5 will be the most interesting. Vilita and Hockey Canada were battling for first place in Group A while Turori and Lamoni were doing the same in Group B. Let's see what happened:
Group A:
Vilita: 4
Hockey Canada: 5
Oliverry: 5
Limbrogidlia: 4
Group B:
Lamoni: 4
Turori: 0
Milchama: 4
Bettia: 0
Thanks to everyone for your participation. It's now time to give the trophys:
The "-explicitive removed- the Defense, I don't need it to win" award goes to Lamoni, scoring 19 goals and allowing 12.
The "How da hell we got eliminated, efs were supposed to give us every win" award goes to host nation Oliverry.
The "What is Offense?" award goes to Rejistania. Wait, this nation is not in the tournament and even not in AO, so it goes to Turori, scoring 8 goals and allowing 7 goals.
The "We are the champions and losing is punishable of lapiding" award is given to Hockey Canada, going on a 4 games without losing steak.
The "What is this Overtime thingy?" Award goes to Vilita, Turori and Hockey Canada.
Now time for the Knockout game matchup
Group A:
Limbrogidlia vs Vilita
The Winner of this game will play against Lamoni
Group B:
Jastica vs Turori
The Winner of this game will play against Hockey Canada
Here is the playoff tree:
La coupe des maudits Losers
(As the cup is in Oliverry, I have the right to write in French)
This cup is intended for teams that finished 4th or 5th in the preliminary phase. It consists of a group phase. The winner wins... nothing. Anyway, here's the schedule:
Matchday 1
Oliverry vs Milchama
Chacor vs Bettia
Matchday 2
Oliverry vs Chacor
Milchama vs Bettia
Matchday 3
Oliverry vs Bettia
Milchama vs Chacor
This cup is a bit different since there can be some ties. |

Hawks take first, wait for the semis
The Hawks took out Turori 4-0 in their final group stage match, placing them in first in group B; and giving them a free ride to the semi-finals to face either Vilita or Limbrogidlia. It seems that the Lamonian betting authorities were correct so far when they predicted that the Hawks would do well in this hockey league.
Lamonian hockey star Armand Darden scored another hat trick in this match, giving him another one for his growing collection. Darden plays for the Nephi Eagles team, and is responsible for getting his struggling team into the Lamonian hockey playoffs almost singlehandedly. Victor Adams scored the remaining goal, but victory had already been assured by the Lamonian defense, which actually did something useful for once in the tournament. FINALLY.
Lamoni - 4 Armand Darden (20, 23, 26), Victor Adams (52)
Turori - 0 |

Lamoni faces Vilita
The whole Lamonian team was watching the match between Vilita and Limbrogidlia, both to see how well each team performed on the ice, and to see who the Hawks would face the next day.
Of course, that is not all that the Hawks did this day. The defense really got a chewing out for their performance during the group stages, and faced a long, tiring, set of exercises intended to make them perform better for the knockout stages. If all goes well, Lamoni will face the winner of the Hockey Canada/Turori match, and Lamonian betting authorities speculate that Hockey Canada will most likely win that match. |

The Israelis despite getting into the Cherry Cup with the exact same squad were eliminated from contention to win the 2nd AO Ice Hockey Championship after winning one game and losing 3. Luckily thanks to the niceness the players can get even more exhausted as they play in the Losers Cup which is also in Oliverry. Coach Jean Perron said, "This group will no longer represent in this AO tournament we will now focus all our energies on the Cherry Cup." This means that the Milchama team will play the U16 hockey team. Nothing is expected from the kids they are just relishing the oppurtunity Team Captain C (The Milchama Hockey Federation does not want the kids getting and thus is preventing names from going public) said, "We just want to have fun out there. We're expecting to lose actually we're expecting to lose by a lot but the goal right now is to have fun and gain expierience so that in 3 Cherry Cups we will be able to play at the highest level."
Our prediction against Oliverry: Oliverry 5- Milchama 1 |

Its now Semi-finals!!

Losers cup
Oliverry: 3
Chacor: 2
Milchama: 1
Bettia: 0
General comments
In the finals, we have 2 good teams. Hockey Canada, with their "B" team, is dominating this cup, winning every game with a big margin, will go up against Vilita, the AO Hockey Cup's defending champions. The favourite team is, of course, Hockey Canada, but, surprises kept going in this tournament. For 3rd place game, we'll have Lamoni, which finished 1st in Group B, against Turori, Vilita's colony. Who will win, that is the question, but it is suspected that Lamoni is the favourite. In the game for 5th place, the surprise came from the fact that Limbrogidlia won, so they finished 5th.
In Losers Cup, Oliverry is royally dominating, being confirmated of a 2nd place as the worst possibility. Both Chacor and Milchama have a chance to finish first as they go against in next match. The main obstacle would be the goal difference that Oliverry has(+3) compared to their own(Milchama has -1 and Chacor +1). |

Hawks lose to Vilita, face Turori for 3rd
The Hawks lost to Vilita 5-4 today, but will face Turori next for the 3rd place game. Lamoni is expected to the be the favorite of the upcoming match, as they defeated Turori 4-0 in the last match between these teams. The oddmakers prediction that the Hawks would do well in this tournament has borne fruit, and they are setting 5 to 1 odds on Lamoni winning the 3rd place match.
Lamoni - 4 Armand Darden (5, 15), Lawrence Bowden (10, 20)
Vilita - 5 (1, 5, 6, 7, 8) |
