"BY jIANK"
We have reached the time of
year when most hockey teams are
starting their playoffs. We say
"mest , teams" because in the
hockey being played today there
are -very few groups` that don't
have all the teams going for •the
top bunting,
To those who aren't familiar'
with hockey of a, few years ago.
this was not always the Clise,
isn't too long ago that only the
top four clubs carried MI. . arid
if one teeth was of higher rating
than others, this team was count
relied tp finish on top of the lea-
gue or face automaticplimination.
It- isn't too many Years ago that
a team had to win mere than halt
of its scheduled ,games, to be al-
lowed in the playoffs.
This has changed greatly in the
last ten yeani until the hockey
an ;Isn't just too certain when the
game •that he is watcbilig is for
real. And of all the groups with
"queer", playoffs there are none
to top that in. the "dkclone Leag-
ue." °
The group has four "B" teams,
Mitchell, Lucan, Goderich and 11-
derton, . . two "C". teams Clinton,
• and Zurich.. ft seems to us that
the •thing to clo if all
teams are to be in tie playoffs
that the 13" clubs should play for
their version of the group title and
Clinton and Zurich decide who is
the best team in the "C" division.
However, to complicate -things
in the apectator's eyes, the 'Mac-
1\fincin Trophy, emblematic of
group supremacy is thrown in.
ani instead of giving it to the
team that finishes •at the top .of
the heap in regular,play. . . the
top four teams playoff. . . this is
where the confusion conies in.
