Florida Eels Elite Team Closes Out Regular Season by Blanking Jr Blades 4-0
The Eels Elite team were in game mode. All dialed in. Ready for playoffs . They were not underestimating the Jr Blades. We did in prior games and were on the back end of a win. The Eels finished the regular season by capturing the Divisional title and wanted to make a statement to their cross town rivals who was on top.
This was a very physical game. The Blades came out hitting everyone who sported an Eels jersey. But the Eels kept their cool. You cannot win by hitting alone. You need to put the puck in the net and that is what the Eels did: 4 times and the Eels goaltender blanked the Blades denying shot after shot. And the defense did their job as well getting the puck out with precision passing and maintaining the blue-line.
The Eels had their eye on the big picture: Playoffs so they played discipline and solid hockey. In the end the boys had all smiles. Great job
Next up practice and prep for playoffs. March 11-13th at the Skatium
Eels Premier Finish Season With A Near Perfect Win Over the Jr Blades
The Eels Premier team came out on fire. In Playoff mode. Their execution was incredible. Duncan Rolleman turned away over 45 shots and only allowed one. He is back and stronger than ever. The boys in front of him played with its smothering forecheck and suffocating back check. They also found seams and exploded when chances were there. Yes it is amazing that this defensive team turns on the jets to bring its high octane offense when needed.
Guys another job well done.
Florida Eels A Decade of Dominance
A Winning Culture For Over 10 Years. 330+ Players to College
The Florida Eels for over a decade are synonymous with absolute dominance. Florida Eels are not only dominant in the USPHL but all of Junior Hockey. For over a decade Florida Eels teams have won Divisional titles, won Playoffs and advanced to Nationals. In fact, for the past five years the Florida Eels Premier have won its division, for five years they have advanced to playoffs, and for five years straight we have advanced forward to Nationals. The Elite team has won its Divisional title for the past two years, and for the past four out of five years have advanced to Nationals. We have all watched as hundreds of our players have earned and have been awarded Players of the Week, Players of the Month, and Year End Allstars. However, this is not the measure of a Florida Eels.
These successes alone are not what measure our greatness. It is the success of our players, our Eels family, that measure our magnitude. It is watching 330 past Eels players advance forward in their goals of playing college hockey. It is 330 players gaining thousands of dollars in scholarships to help them attend these schools, in hopes of developing their future careers. It is the undeniable mark that is branded within an Eel forever.
Once you have become a Florida Eel, that culture, that family is something that in ingrained in you forever. Players of years past, continue to show up to games, and support players of Eels present. Watching these former players return, hearing about their careers, and meeting their families is a beautiful gift. The Eels have surely had a significant impact on the lives of these young men now fathers, husbands, and career men, and we are grateful and honored to have had them as be a part of our teams, our lives, and of course our family.
Join us March 11th -13th as the Florida Eels Premier and Elite compete in the Florida Divisional Playoffs to further the quest to the USPHL Nationals. Can’t join us in person, be sure to tune in live on @myhockeytv
