(Guest writer, Dodos' own, Jeff Hewitt)
While neither species exist in modern times, these two prehistoric creatures would square up for battle. One attempting to secure their position as the sole leader of the division, while the other was looking to rise up from the deathbed of extinction.
The Dodos (10-2) would strike first on the mighty Mastodons (1-10-1) when A.J. Tarpley would turn sneak a wrister past the opposition’s goalie with a feed from Jeff Hewitt and Caleb McEvers. The tone was set, less then one minute later, Tarpley would return the favor and connect with Hewitt to take a 2-0 lead.
The second period would start the same as the first. This time Hewitt would connect with Bryan Silvey on a breakaway. Silvey, all alone would catch the Mastodons goalie and his fellow Dodos by surprise, choosing to go five-hole and score an impressive goal. Later in the period, the Dodos' Blake Barroso would join in on the action with a goal of his own, stretching the lead to 4-0 by the end of the second period.
With the game somewhat out of reach for the Mastodons, the Dodos added a final goal.

This time Dylan Mlcoch would creatively sneak a bouncing puck past the opponent’s goalie marking the 5 score for the flightless birds. Dodos goalie Chris Barrera would continue his excellent play by shutting out the Mastodons and earning player of the game honors.
The last place Mastodons proved to be a lesser opponent for the league leading Dodos. Victory was expected, however the battle was well played and hard fought. This time David didn’t beat Goliath!
Come support the Dodos (11-2) next Sunday the 22nd at 7:30PM as they try to avenge their first loss of the season to the 4th place Acme Warriors (8-4).
Fantasy Stats: Chris Barrera, shutout 19 saves
