What a nail-biter! The matchup between Friendtip and Smoke Show had everyone biting their nails until the final buzzer. Friendtip came out on top with a 4-3 victory, thanks in part to a standout performance from mwags2424, who dropped 2 goals and 2 assists, making him the star of the night. lRxfio also lit it up with a goal and an assist, plus the game-winning goal, reminding everyone how clutch he can be!

On the other side, Smoke Show put up a fight but just fell short. Snow-l37l was a force, notching 1 goal and 2 assists, while xKillzone99 added a goal and an assist of his own. It was a solid effort, but the 8 penalty minutes and .8 shots on goal ratio were definitely not in their favor. GannabisIVXX faced 19 shots and saved 15, but he couldn't stop them all, while Skiippy x 97 had a pretty solid outing too, letting in 3 goals on 16 shots.

Overall, Friendtip managed to control the game a bit better, firing 19 shots to Smoke Show's 17 and winning the time-on-ice battle. The physicality was there—SophisticatedX was dishing out hits like crazy with 16! It was a hard-fought game, but in the end, Friendtip took home the W. Can’t wait to see how these squads bounce back next time!
