Vipers had a short bench in this game but worked hard. Blues Bob "Soft Hands" Dosanjh started scoring late in second half short-handed when Gur "The Tank" Randhawa fed a nice pass sending the tall lanky east indian on a breakaway. Mr Dosanjh then effortlessly deked goalie nicely to right and popped back hand top corner. In the second half the line of Bindy Inderbir and Bob popped in 2 more to make it a final of 3 - 0.
The Blues outshot the hard working Vipers 15 - 8. Blues Bal "I'm too sick to play" Mattu played well when tested in first half earning him the shutout. The young line of Harvir Jas and Kaji had a good game controlling play in Viper zone but could not finish. Other notibles were The Tank moving up to give the 3rd line some scoring opportunities while Sandip "I need to get in shape" Dulay moved back as he couldn't keep up with the 2 snipers who like to run every 2nd shift namely Hardeep "Tin Man" Sahota and Gary "Butterscotch Milkshake Lover" Gill.
Next up final game of the season for the Blues and Vipers at Planet Ice Coquitlam Thurs July 2nd 8pm.

Blues 7 - Scorpionz 1
In the final regular season showdown between these 2 Indo Canadian ball hockey pride was on the line, both teams fielding a full-lineup. Blues had a first of 4 lines this game, to keep tempo up they rolled lines efficiently with 1 minute shifts.
Blues team captain, "The Tank" Randhawa like a modern day Brett Hull blasted a wrist shot past Scorpio goal taking a sexy pass from Martin "The Russian" Gringberg. 49 seconds later the unthinkable, unimaginable most amazing thing happened, Gursher "Gorilla Cage" Randhawa scored!!! Most of the guys were still reminiscing the Tank's laser beam of a goal and completely missed historical event but it happened, we are still trying to determine how this goal came about.
Anyways the Blues forwards pressed hard on Scorpionz defense and got a couple consecutive powerplays. On the first PP Bob Dosanjh scored a beauty from Bindy "All In" Aulukh and Kevin "CR" Singh. The second PP The Tank blasted his second of the game top corner again from a nice feed from Martin "The Russian" Gringberg and Sukh "The Grinder" Dosanjh.
Up 4-1 and in command of the game, on a Blues defensive breakdown Scorpios capitalized and got one past Bal "I'm going to find a wife to be this year" Mattu. 50 seconds later Inderbir broke in on a semi breakaway, like a pro holding on to the ball fed a sweet pass to the trailing Hardeep "Tin Man" Sandhu on a breakaway who put one past Scorpio goalie glove side. With 3 minutes left in first half Bindy "All In" Aulukh leading point man on the team on a quick turnaround caught goalie napping and putting one low post.
In the second half Blues played a strong team defensive game with The Tank leading the way running the flow back and forth deserving of the Selke trophy of their was one. The captain drew a couple penalties of one which he took a dirty hit from one of the giant scorpionz in the corner. At the tail end of period with 4 minutes left Harvir "Head Down" Sidhu scored on a deflection off scorpion defenseman. Mr Sidhu now has 11 goals on the season with no assists, the moto of the young line being just give the ball to Sidhu and let him fire away.
Total shots in this one was 15 - 12 in favour of the Blues. Other notibale plays was Bal "ICBC" Mattu making a left pad save on a penalty shot midway through second period.
Next game is Sunday June 28th 7:30 Langley against Vipers.

Blues 1 - Tornadoes 5
In the final season match up between these 2 powerhouses, Tornadoes came out on top. Blues played well first half just down by one. Tornadoes opened scoring mid way through second half. Blues then had 3 PP's in a row and midway through 3 PP got brokedown defensively and got caught shorthanded resulting in a penalty shot for Tornadoes. Captain of Tornadoes beat Jimmy "I always cum late" Mattu top corner blocker side. The Blues on tail end of their PP got one back with the Tank blasting one from the point from a nice Gary Bal feed. Starting the second half down 2-1, the Tank took a costly interference penalty resulting in another goal by Tornadoes on PP.
The second half was a total no show for the Blues forwards who could not get anything going despite a few chances. They turned over the ball numerous times resulting in final score of 5-1. Returning to the lineup after a 10 game abscense was Hardeep "Tin Man" Sandhu who had a decent game.
Blues management is not happy with Gursher "My face is stuck in a cage" Randhawa who offensively is on a 15 game goal drought, he had a few good offensive rushes keeping ball pinned in Tornadoes zone, but defensively positioning was absolutely atrocious and comical to watch. Blues also need more offensive production from Inderbir "I'm focused on moving into a new house" Sandhu, and Jas "Sunripe Drinker" Brar to be successful in the playoffs. Finally Martin "The Russian" Grinberg needs to pick up the slack from poor showing last couple games. The young core of the Blues will be the key to how far the Blues progress in the post season.
Blues management is looking forward to return of Bob "Goal Scorer" Dosanjh, Sukh "Upgrade IPhone 3.0" Dosanjh and Kevin "Papa" Singh in the lineup, 3 key players. With a full lineup Blues will be tough to beat in down the latter stretch.
Next game Wednesday June 24th 8pm Langley Sportsplex against the not so deadly variety of scorpionz.

Team BBQ in July - TBD
Blues are having a team BBQ at either Bindy's or Bob's house in Langley/South Surrey sometime in July.
An opportunity for the guys on the team to get to know each other more intimately and discuss hockey strategy. There will be a alot of "sticks and balls" to educate young guns on game play.
Blues management will be providing vegetarian burger/dog varieties. We also expect the great "Big Balu" to sacrifice a goat/pig/some animal this evening.
Good times.

Assassins 2 - Blues 3
Blues had their hands full playing the #1 ranked team in the division. Bindy "All In" Aulukh was fired up for this game and had a game plan. Not too be disclosed here on the blog of course.
The game plan worked with the Blues taking a 2-0 lead on the deadly PP once again with young Kaji scoring first and then Bindy "All in" Aulukh. The Blues team defense was outstanding limiting Assassins scoring chances. Total shots were 19 - 16 in favour of Assassins. The Blues continued to frustrate the Assassins in 2nd half getting more PP however could not capitalize. Assassins then got one of their own midway through second half beating goalie Mattu short side. Blues not to be outdone scored again on the PP by Kevin Singh. The Assassins replied late with a lucky bounce off Kevin trickling through Mattu's pads. Sandip Dulay then like a warrior cleared the zone once and blocked 2 shots to close the deal upsetting the highly touted Assassins.
This was by far the Blues best game so far, leading into the final stretch of the season the Blues now have a system with players buying into it. Hope to continue this type of play leading into the playoffs.
Next up Tornadoes, Sunday June 21st in Langley.

Tornadoes 2 - Blues 3
In this Sunday night matchup at Langley Sportsplex, the Blues had wiley veteran Kevin "Crown Royal" Singh in the lineup playing defense. Kevin just underwent some reconstructive nose surgery and a week later with a shiny new visor couldn't stay away from the game he loves. What a guy!!!
Tornadoes came out as their name implies with a flurry of scoring chances utilizing their speedy wingers and pinching defense. They went up 2 - 0 on the Blues by early second half. The Tornadoes then went crazy and took 8 penalties rest of the way. The Blues with their deadly silent killer PP capitalized. Scoring first was Bindy Aulukh on a all veteran PP, with The Tank, Gary Bal, Bindy, Sandip and Kevin moving the ball around like pro's. On the second PP the Tank created a mini tornado in the corner taking the ball away from Tornadoes and young sniper Kaji Hundal wristed it past their goalie.
The game went into O.T with nothing solved. Then came shoot out with Gary Bal deking the pants off Tornadoes goalie. Rest of the way no one scored as Bal "I gotta get my life in order" Mattu stopped every shooter. Blues strength lies in this young 38 year old goaltending who doesn't like warmups and has a pre-game ritual of serenating the toilet at least 4 times before leaving the dressing room. One of a kind!!!

Blues 3 - Demons 6
In the season meeting between these 2 hate rivals, Demons went up quickly 4-0 in the first half on poor Blues defensive coverage. The young Blues forwards could not gather any momemtum and turned the ball over again and again. After a pep talk mid way through first half, Blues sniper Harvir "I can shoot" Sidhu blasted one top corner, followed by Martin "Russian" Gringberg burying one on Demon's netminder. Early in the second half on PP Gary "Dipsie Doodle" Bal blasted one from the point bringing the Blues close by 1. The Blues had the Demons on the ropes but could not close the deal again due to poor defensive coverage, the last goal being turned over by clearing attempt by Bal "I'm 58.546%" Mattu. Blues played Demon's tough this season and hopefully get some revenge in playoffs.

Devils 3 vs Blues 2
Devils took this one on 2 costly defensive mishaps by the Tank caught pinching which resulted in 2 goals. The Devils goalie was outstanding stifling Blues offensive.

The Devils then got a lucky bounce and scored again late second half. Blues on the PP scored by Martin "Russian" Gringberg made it close in the dying minutes. Blues let this one get away.

Devils 1 - Blues 3
This was a feisty affair between 2 teams who are building up a heated rivalry. Blues started this game sloppy specifically the forwards who could not maintain ball control in Devils zone. Devils scored first on a flurry of chances and finally popping one by veteran old man Bal "Chachu" Mattu. Bindy then tied it up with on a breakaway pass deking Devils goalie jockstrap right off.
In the second half a scuffle in Devils zone between Inderbir and another Devil defenseman erupted with the Devil dropping his gloves and throwing haymakers on Inderbir "I'm gonna finish this on Sunday" Hundal. Smartly Mr Hundal did not retaliate and Blues came out on top with a PP. On the PP Martin scored on a sweet pass from Sukh "I love Harry Potter" Dosanjh. Thereafter the Tank invoked some revenge from earlier incident on Devils forward hacking and wacking Devils forward (no shin guards) in Blues zone. The Devil cried "owwwwwwwieee", but the Tank didn't stop and in elegant fashion totally mutilated the Devils scrawny legs. No penalty called as the slashes were smartly timed. He never returned as the next shift he lost control and was ejected out of the game.
Harvir "I hate passing" Sidhu scored in last 5 minutes to put Blues up for good 3-1. Overall Blues defense had an outstanding game even after losing Sony "I tore my achilles heel" Kaila who won't be returning for remainder of the season.
Blues are looking to pick up another defenseman, Amar has indicated he knows a Black ex CFL dude who can play ball hockey. We hope to add this superstar to the lineup by this week sometime.
