Week 7 in the books.

Early tilt between the high flying Islanders and the Oilers.  All Islanders in the opening frame as they out score the Oilers 3-0 after one.  Islanders continue to push as they out score the Oilers 4-2 in the 2nd period taking a 7-2 lead into the final frame.  Both squads score single markers in the final period for an Islander win 8-3.  Both squads went 0-1 on the PP.  Islanders get 2 goals both from league leader McKean and Harty, singles from Ferrin, Riddell, Tygesen and Connell.  Oilers goals from Brideau, Maguire and Rundle.  Players of the Game was awarded to Islanders David Riddell and Oilers Tim Rundle.  Islanders leap frog the idle Flyers for top spot.

Late game between the Habs and the Bruins.  Habs down 2 defencemen and their backstop Ervin.  Bruins also down 4 key skaters.  Habs debut their new rookie sensation, Denis Desrosiers, an even greater Habs fan than Jeff Kostick and Flumerfelt, if even thats possible.  Bruins score the lone goal in the opening frame.  Habs get 3 goals in the 2nd frame as the Bruins score twice as this tilt goes into the final frame all square at 3’s.  Habs Dupal scores a PP goal early in the 3rd.  Bruins tie it up at 4’s with just under 5 minutes to go.  Habs Patrick Sharp is the hero scoring the game winner for the Habs with 43 ticks left on the clock.  The boys tried to carry Sharp off the ice on their shoulders but it was a gong show.  Bruins went 1-3 on the PP and Habs went 1-2.  Habs get goals from Rukavina, Steve Kostick, Dupal and 2 goals from Sharp.  Bruins goal scorers Cummings, Annan, Cosentino and rookie Russell with his first of his career.  Habs rookie Desrosiers had 2 assists and begins his PCOHL career undefeated.  Post game media comments from Denis was all about his moving from a Friday night church league to PCOHL, “It’s a much different room here than my church league, oh boy!!!!”.
