AC Doors wins first Keith Miller Cup in franchise history

Since the league's inception, the AC Doors franchise has been perennial contenders, ultimately falling short of the quest for league supremacy in the playoffs every year, with numerous second-place finishes to its credit.

Another playoff disappointment looked to be in the cards this year, as the team narrowly avoided an upset at the hands of league newcomer, Sackvegas -- scoring in the final second to tie and force overtime in Game 3, which it would go on to win, setting up a clash with rival CKG Elevator.

The teams would split the first two games - setting up a winner-take-all game three for the second straight year. Eager not to see another season end in disappointment, Ricky Jones turned in a vintage performance, holding the fort in the early going, allowing the team in front of him to get its feet under itself.

After a scoreless first period, AC Doors would draw first blood on the power play in the second, with Jones firing a stretch pass that would be touched by David MacGregor, landing on the stick of Kurt Jerrett. Neil Pashkoski would add to the lead shortly later, on a nifty solo effort, tucking a backhand behind CKG netminder Kinnon MacMillan. CKG would find itself in penalty trouble near the end of the second period, setting up an important power play to start the third period.

With the ice still wet, Andrew Oakley took a slick pass and buried a one-time shot high over the shoulder of MacMillan. CKG would press in the third period, but Jones stood tall, turning aside all shots directed his way.

Rene George would add a pair late, sealing the 5-0 victory for AC Doors, its first in franchise history.

Matt Myers, the longest tenured active player in the league, accepted the trophy on behalf of AC Doors.
