	Game Summary: Not Getting Any Younger vs. Young     It was the old guys against the young ones this series for the first two games.  Kelly insisted, however, they needed Marcus and Jason on the old timers team to even it up.  Well, Kelly is back to his winning ways as he helped his team out tremendously and his team won both games.  The young guys got Jeff Gauderman, up from the minors, on their team, but could not come up with a victory.  The third game, the teams were reassigned and there were no subs, as multiple players left the series after game 2.   Game Notes:   Kelly Grotte returns to MVP form after injury   Collin Grotte's hot streak comes to an end   Marcus Bergstrom plays his best offensive series the year and arguably of his GHL career   Nich Riveland on cold streak, bruises his ribs.  "I kept running into people tonight, and when you run into people like Marcus, somtimes, you start to feel the consequences.  I was emotionally upset tonight at myself, but I give credit to the old timers for staying physical.  It's hard to get by and sneak in a goal.   Mike Loyland plays for first time 07-08 season.       Travis Alvine named Rookie of the Month   Month of December Recap    There are now only 3 players who have played every game this season(31)      ---Nich Riveland---Andrew Grotte----Jason Grotte----CONGRATULATIONS!!
