The Florida Eels Storm the Jr Blades 7-1 in their Final Game of November
After a disappointing loss to the Palm Beach Typhoon and a 3rd game Shootout loss to Atlanta two weeks ago, the Eels came out blazing this afternoon. After Sunday’s upset, the Eels went back to the drawing board and put in about 5+ hours Monday and Tuesday to regroup and figure out what went wrong and to go back to basics. Moreover, the Eels players did some soul searching and decided it was time to show everyone who the real Eels are. We are entitled to a loss and maybe a slight skid. But the true character of players and a solid team is how we bounce back and get back on track. There is no doubt whoever was watching today’s game witnessed precisely that from the Eels.
Today’s win saw goals from 7 different players and about 10 different players tallying assists. Scoring by committee if you will. Moreover, Evan Spinella in net for the Eels slammed shut the door. Below is a summary of the game:
