With one game left in the tournament, The Up-and-Comers head coach made a couple of tweaks to his lines, moving Gonzo Gobbledygook to Center, and swapping around some wingers. No changes on defense were made, and it was of course Rebecca Montagne starting in net once again.

This is it, one final game to determine the champions. I think it would be perfect if the Up-and-Comers win the tournament, but that’s probably because I’m an Up-and-Comers fan. Sadly, this year they have to settle with second place, as they fell to the Hall-of-Famers 6-4 in the final. It was an exciting, frustrating, eventful, suspenseful game that ended disappointingly for Up-and-Comers fans.

The Hall-of-Famers had a better start to the game, jumped out to a 2-0 lead early, the Up-and-Comers battled hard to try and come back, but it felt like they were constantly trying to swim upstream. Despite their best efforts, they couldn’t net a goal when they deserved one, and the Hall-of-Famers seemed to have all the luck. They came close to coming back late in the third period but just couldn’t pull it off.

Though the Up-and-Comers left little doubt they'll be suiting up for the Hall-of-Famers in the future.
