Team MAGNUM 12 vs. Team BIRETTA 11 OT
Friday, May 26, 2006

Some crazy OT action in another classic tilt... just a single trade to start the mid-way series mark as Tommy Wong and Calvin Cheng switch sides... with the latter pulling a no-show in silent protest perhaps... but Team Beretta manage to gut it out anyways as both teams held things close and tight all night long... Team Magnum fielded all four of the game's substitutes and got the night's only power play on defender Eric Lun's one on one takedown in a goalmouth rush... but it was Team Beretta holding a slight lead for the majority including a 3 goal lead at one point... powered by Travis Wong and Lonny Wong wreaking havoc for most of the night... but it was a disallowed goal due to net-off-the-mooring (and a just call by own team captain Albert Chang by the way) which proved to be a pivotal event in light of the finish... goalie Ken Takeda made some crucial saves to give his team a chance and paid mucho dividends as Team Magnum's captain Jason Lai scores a garbage tap-in with the extra attacker in the final minute... off to sudden death where late-sub-comer Raymond Toy makes up for tardiness by icing the game winner…
