Another one bites the dust


Cue the music DEVO fans. The latest Hawk to be ruled out of Friday's showdown with the Eskimos is top 2 defensman Nate Mensel. Mensel has been skating with the forwards this session and has been a difference maker when on the ice. Problem is, he hasn't been on the ice enough. That's the case for most the team. So far, Hawk starters have missed a combined 15 games between them. Offensive production is down, GAA average is way up and nobody has bought the GM a beer at the bar in weeks. All told, the session has been riddled with disappointment.

"Nate got a new iPad and rumor has it he's locked himself in the mancave, refusing to share," said Kevin Griffith on the condition of anonymity. "His kids haven't seen him in days. He sits and giggles behind the door, playing all his new free apps and drawing pictures with a crayon program. It's cool. He let me see it for a second before slamming the door in my face."

Fan favorites John 'Grand' Kenyon and Oleg 'My Sauna is better than yours' Chetverikov will have to carry the load friday against the league's most potent goal scorers.

"I'm going to be their worst nightmare," said Kenyon confidently. "#66 is coming for you."
