2010-11 FHL Commisioner's Preview-- Moose
Zack Siniawski leads the Moose into their 2nd season with one thing in mind, redemption. After tearing through the regular season last year (109 goals, 4th most all time) to a 13-6 record they didnt translate it to any post season wins. The moose were swept by Bishop Boyle and became an afterthought as the Lancers went on to battle with the Jets in an epic cup showdown. Zack teams up again with his franchise player and good buddy Jeff Rogers to get the Moose back on track. Jeff had probably the best offseason of hockey in the league. He helped Ben Bobick win the August charity tournament. Then he went on to captain the Gates team at the thanksgiving classic, a team that will be engrained in Gates Manor history for years to come. Jeff, a guy who idolized Kevin Stevens growing up, had this say about the new year..
"Well Ron (John), Im looking forward to playing with a new group of guy. I feel good about our roster. Lotta guts and a lotta (expletive) talent. Couldn't ask for much more."
Joining the brash Jeff and Zack on this team are a couple of silent killers
in Drew Hruska and Jason Kortz. Hruska enjoyed a solid season last year with the Crosbys ( 7 goals, 13 assists) and Kortz put up 15 goals and 13 assists with the Jets. These two will make up the top line of the Moose, who said goodbye to top scorers Jeff Pingor and Nick Siniawski this offseason. Also teaming up with Green is the ageless wonder Bill Seaman. Now on his fourth team (Crosbys, Kings, Jets, Moose) the Moose will hope that Seaman still has a little bit of magic left to help guide them to the Cup. Josh McIntyre, Ryan Sabo, and Jim "Beans" Johnston will be counted on to provide a touch of secondary scoring. The Moose are also hoping to get some standout play for a group of fringe defensemen in John O'brien, Nick Paoletti, and Ryan Fish. If this veteran team can hold up for the long stretch of the season they could be legittiment contenders.
