Game On!

It's finally here -- the start of my pre-NHL Hall of Fame League! The first official game featured the Bulldogs hosting the Victorias. On a power play early in the first period, Cyclone Taylor of the Vics scored the first goal in league history. He tacked on another goal and an assist for a three-point night as the Vics cruised to a 3-1 win. Bowse Hutton was incredible in goal, stopping 32 of 33 shots, while Riley Hern stopped 36 of 39 in the losing effort. There was a bit of a scary moment late in the third when Taylor went down with an injury and didn't return, but he'll be back in the lineup for the Vics' next contest. Tomorrow night, however, it will be the Comets hosting the Thistles in a rematch of the pre-season tournament finale.
