Lack of offense dooms Rijward

Mechen 1, Rijward 0: Rokus Osthav'n made 43 saves last night, but the one he missed counted the most. The only goal scored by either team, it came with 8:36 to go in the third period. Doutze Holwerde, the right wing for Mechen, beat Osthav'n on the upper glove side (left) thanks to Wiebe Kappe screening Osthav'n.

Onatten 3, Gottwrischer 1: Jaska Hiekkalinna, a Finnish acquiry of this offseason, scored two goals and had an assist for Onatten. Hiekkalinna was not a goal-scorer in the Finnish leagues, and so this game made GM Leevi Keisari look like a smart man for taking this gamble and hiring him.

Matexipar 4, Lojren 0: Heiko Moordfors had a spectacular day, recording his first shutout of a season that purports to be full of them. He made 39 saves, including denying Olbert Dykstra twice, once on a breakaway and another time on a wraparound attempt. Ekkehardt Falkland had two goals and two assists for Matexipar.

Tarlunz 2, Atterische 1: Tarlunz was able to pull off the win with the support of their home crowd. After they fell behind early, their fans didn't fall silent. In fact, they raised their voices even louder, urging Tarlunz to get back in it. After Habel Baarda scored the game-winning with 4:31 left in the third period, the crowd erupted into a frenzy.

Bjaward 3, Menesanne 1: Wob Ramsbeck did an admirable job in goal yesterday, making 45 saves. Normally 45 saves is enough for a tie at least, but when your defense gives up 48 shots, it's difficult to win. Ramsbeck was bombarded, including 8 shots and two goals by Diederik Eisinga.

Bevinlunz 3, Wrischer 2: Bevinlunz finally found its offense after scoring just one goal in the past two games. Sikke Pfelward was in street clothes on the sidelines, but Gerrit Visser and Eitel Piebinga picked up the slack. Visser had two goals and an assist and Piebinga had a goal and two assists.
