PORT ARTHURvs.FORT WILLIAM
FINAL SCORE:
WINNER:FORT WILLIAM
In episode seven of Road Hockey Rumble, Calum and Mark leave Manitoba for Thunder Bay, Ont. This Northern Ontario city is home to the Staal brothers, who one by one are achieving star status in the NHL. Until 1970 Thunder Bay was actually two cities, Port Arthur and Fort William, and fittingly, Mark drafts players from the former, while Calum recruits his team members from the latter. The losing captain must endure the “Firing Squad.”

TOWNIESvs.BAYMEN
FINAL SCORE:
WINNER:TOWNIES!!!
The final stop on Road Hockey Rumble’s cross-Canada grudge match is St. John’s, NFLD. The “townies” figure that if you’re not from the city side of the overpass, you’re a ‘Bayman’, so Mark captains the Townies against Calum’s team of Baymen, with the loser suffering the “Triple Threat.” Mark gets very lucky when Terry Ryan, former first round NHL pick and world ball hockey champion, is drafted onto his team.

MARK WINS THE SERIES!!!
LOSING CAPTAIN’S PUNISHMENT:
TRIFECTA OF PUNISHMENT!!!
1. Firing Squad
2. Shins of Silk
3. St. John’s Special
Losing Captain: Calum. Quote: Part 1: The Firing Squad. Ever had a 1st round NHL draft pick/world
ball hockey champion take slapshots at you? No? It really fucking hurts. While
Terry hit me with every shot, I think John Dawe only hit me once but he hit me
good! He hit me right over my heart and it left a mark on my chest that lasted
for 4 months!
Part 2: The Shins of Silk. First of all, Mark’s a pussy, it doesn’t hurt that
bad. Second, I have beautiful calves.
Part 3: The St. John’s Shit Mix. I still dry heave when I think of the smell of
that shit. The worst part, bar none, was the seafood flavoured catfood. That and
the fish heads. As for the clean up, well, I can see why they use firehoses in
riot control situations. Getting hit with that water was totally disorienting, I
couldn’t even tell where the ground was when I was tumbling. I had bruises on
top of bruises after that. And as for the part when they focused the spray
specifically on my rectum, well, I was able to strike “get an enema” off my list
of things to do in St. John’s.
You know what hurt worse than all of that, though? Losing the series.
