Man... I'll never complain about Derek Herman again. Well... not until the next time I see him call a game...
The AJHL playoffs started for both the Canucks and Royals tonight, with the Canucks clobbering Drumheller 6-1 in a wild game where the officiating could charitably be called terrible.
Calgary came out on fire, while Drumheller came out flat. Combine that with a dumb referee, and the powerplay situation after one was 5-0 or 5-1 Calgary. Shots 17-3. Score 3-0. All of the Drumheller players were visibly upset throughout the game, as they twice had three players in the box serving minor penalties, and gave up four PP Goals - two on 5 on 3's.
By the time it was all over, there were four fights, a line brawl, two gross misconducts, a Dragon player who rifled the puck at the referee, one stupid Drumheller goalie who picked a fight with an unwilling Canuck goalie, and one incredibly stupid Drumheller fan who threw a full garbage can onto the ice, forcing the end of the game 12 seconds early.
Game 2 tomorrow at 7:30 at Max Bell could be a fun one...
No word yet on how the Royals are doing in Camrose.
