Five, Three and One - Dynamo Ain't Done!

Team Dynamo Clinches Playoff Spot

Woonsocket, RI - Hot Damn! The roller coaster ride that is the 2013 RIMSEHL season continues...

With just one week remaining in the regular season, the playoff bracket is just about set. Fans all over Northern Rhode Island are looking at potential match ups as follows:

#1 Bulldogs v #4 Baboons

#2 Team Dynamo v #3 Woonsocket

Team Dynamo took to the ice last week in two crucial match ups and came out on top in both, putting them at 4 - 0 in their last 4. Most recently, Team Dynamo defeated Plante's for the first time this season in a defensive chess match, 5 - 3.

Here are the three stars of the game, brought to you by sponsors AT&T and Taco Bell:

#3 Erik Noack (D)

Traditionally, Erik is known as your prototypical defensive defenseman. However, of late, he's shown Orr like flashes to boost the Blue Army offense. While it hasn't shown on the scoresheet per-say, he's been providing intangibles such as jumping up in the rush and creeping in from the offensive blue for opportunities. Most notably, in the third period, Erik took control of the puck on the blue, toe - dragged the winger (sort of) and let loose an absolute howitzer from the hash marks; unfortunately, the tender turned it aside with ease.

#2 George "The Doctor" Sparrow (F)

The Doc has integrated into the potent Dynamo offense very well after his hiatus. His eye popping toe drags and re-vamped face-off tactics have helped him contribute immensely to catapulting Team Dynamo into a real contender. George has chipped in with more than the diminutive 12 pack; with a one goal lead late in the third, the Doctor of Love crafted a puck towards the net, lighting the lamp, and thus sealing Dynamo's fate by concreting their position in the post season.

#1 Joey Loiselle (F)

"Mr. Loiselle is the hottest player in the league right now," one Single A scout in attendance  on Thursday night is quoted as saying. This comes as old news to the Boys in Blue, as Joey has truly come into his own this season. Off the ice, Joe has taken on some unofficial managerial responsibilities and is quickly being looked at by Team Owners as the answer of the future. On the ice, he's tenacious, skilled and relentless. For example, aside from the 2 goals Joey chipped in against Plante's, he also recorded 12  steals and 1 blocked shot. His contributions can easily be measured in goals and assists, but what's more, Coach Dave Farrell adds, "Joey is everything that Team Dynamo embodies." That alone should speak for itself.
