BEER LEAGUE BULLIES vs. BUZZILLA

Thursday, April 9, 2026 | AFC Rink 1 | Final: 13-1

BUZZ KILL

There are blowouts. There are mercy rules. And then there are nights where the Bullies score eight goals in the first period and the only real question is whether the Zamboni driver has somewhere to be. Thursday was that kind of night.

13-1. Final. Against a Buzzilla team that came in at 1-21 and left at 1-22, having discovered that there is, in fact, a difference between struggling and whatever this was. The Bullies were up 8-0 after one period, 10-0 after two, and were essentially playing a scrimmage against themselves by the third. Clean game — no penalties on either side — and a shot total (26-8) that tells you everything you need to know about how comfortable this one felt.

The bigger picture: BLB sits at 20-1-0-1 on the season. That record is not a typo.

PERIOD BY PERIOD

1st Period — 8-0 BLB

Twenty-nine seconds. That's how long Buzzilla got to feel okay about their Thursday night before Robert Obradovitch put one past their goalie, assisted by Andreas Adolfsson. By 2:34, Matthew Sweeney had added an unassisted second. By 6:01, Jon Sandgren had his first of three on the night. By 6:40, Kellen Hart had scored. None of these goals came after halftime of the period — the Bullies had four goals before the clock hit seven minutes.

It kept going. Sandgren again at 11:56. Sweeney again at 13:52. Paul Przybylski at 16:21 — Obradovitch and Adolfsson with the setup. Hart again at 18:50. Eight goals in one period. The period was twenty minutes long. You do the math.

2nd Period — 10-0 BLB

The second was comparatively quiet, which is a sentence that applies exclusively to this game and no other game in recorded hockey history. Sandgren completed the hat trick at 12:45 unassisted. Obradovitch got his second at 19:30, Adolfsson setting it up again. Two goals, two minutes of drama, ten-nothing heading into the third.

3rd Period — 13-1 BLB

By the third, the Bullies had apparently decided Adolfsson needed more ice time with the puck, and honestly — correct decision. The Swede scored three consecutive BLB goals to close out the scoring: at 1:47, 9:35, and 17:00. Sweeney and Przybylski picked up assists. Buzzilla finally got on the board at 14:56, which EJ Wallace and Jacob Walker can feel genuinely good about given what the rest of the evening looked like. Final: 13-1.

SPOTLIGHT

Andreas Adolfsson — Three goals. Four assists. Seven points. In one game. The Swede didn't just show up Thursday — he showed up, took over, and left a trail of assists on goals he wasn't even scoring. If there's a more efficient 60 minutes in BLB Thursday history, it's buried somewhere and frankly it doesn't matter because this happened.

Jon Sandgren — Hat trick. All three unassisted or close to it, because apparently Sandgren doesn't need anyone's help to find the back of the net. Quiet hat tricks are the best hat tricks.

Robert Obradovitch — Two goals, two assists, four points. Bobby continues to be exactly what this team expects him to be: present, productive, and completely unbothered about who gets the headlines.

Paul Przybylski — One goal, two assists, three points. Pryz was all over the setup work and finished with a clean night.

Kellen Hart — Two goals, zero assists. No Hart jokes this week. The man just scored twice and went home.

Jesse Granger — Seven saves, one goal allowed, and what had to be the most relaxed 60 minutes a Thursday goalie has had in a long time. Eight shots faced. One got through. Granger's biggest challenge Thursday was staying sharp when the puck barely came near him, and he handled it.

LOOKING AHEAD

20-1-0-1. Ten points clear of second place. The Thursday standings have looked like this for a while now, and Thursday's game didn't change the math so much as underline it in red. The Bullies are the class of this league and have been all season.

Playoffs start next week. Sit with that for a second.

All of it — the 20 wins, the 158 goals, the nights where eight happened in a single period — it was all building toward this. Seeding is locked, the target on the back is real, and every team left standing is going to bring their best. That's the point.

And yes — there's a chance the first opponent out of the bracket is Buzzilla. The same Buzzilla that just left Rink 1 having been outscored 13-1. Playoff hockey has a funny way of making teams forget regular season results, so the Bullies would be wise to remember what happens when you come out buzzing from puck drop and never let up. Thursday was a good reminder.

Stay sharp. Stay hungry. The cup doesn't hand itself out.
