Wallace leads playoff series over Blyth PeeWees
BY RUSTY BLADES
The Blyth Pee Wees had yet
another busy week of hockey as
they finished off their schedule
with two games and suffered an
opening game 6-2 loss to Wallace
in WOAA playoff action.
The Pee Wees travelled to
Kurtzville on Wednesday, January
24 and, although they lost 6-2, the
game was much closer than the
score because the first Wallace
goal still hasn’t crossed the goal
line and the final goal was scored
with only one second left in the
game.
Wallace’s Todd Norman played a
huge role in staking his team to a
5-0 early second period lead with
two goals and two assists. Blyth
countered with two powerplay
goals before the period ended but
that was as close as they could get.
Brian McNichol put Blyth on the
scoreboard first as he buried a
loose puck from close range. Tim
Goderich Atoms top
Belgrave by 6-1 score
Goderich Atoms proved just too
powerful for their hosts from
Belgrave January 20 as they skated
to a 6-1 win.
Goderich scored the only goal of
the first period then added four
more in the second to take a
commanding lead. Brian Marks
scored Belgrave’s only goal of the
game midway through the second
with Eugene Fenton getting the
assist. Goderich closed out the
scoring with a goal in the third.
It was a happier result January
24 when Belgrave played an exhibi
tion game against Belmore and
skated off with an 8-0 win.
Brent Robinson started the scor
ing in the first period with a goal
from Brian Marks. Exactly four
minutes later Robinson returned
the favour for Marks as they
combined for the second goal. Just
over a minute later Corey Moran
scored an unassisted goal for
Belgrave.
After a scoreless second period
Wayne Fenton scored from Eugene
Fenton and Corey Moran to open
the third. The Fentons combined
for the second of the period with
Wayne scoring from Eugene three
minutes after their first goal. Brent
Robinson scored from Jeremy
Campbell with 4:04 left in the
game, then Corey Moran scored
from Wayne Fenton and Eugene
Fenton scored from Moran and
Wayne Fenton to end the scoring.
Belgrave will return to Belmore
February 5 to see if Belmore can
gain revenge. Belmore was short-
handed for the game and was
experiencing playing on natural ice
for the first time.
Lyons notched the second goal as
he pounced on the rebound of Mike
Bromley’s shot and whipped a shot
through a maze of legs. Jerrod
Button picked up an assist as his
pass to Bromley set the stage for
the eventual goal. Unfortunately,
Blyth sniper Mike Bromley was lost
for the rest of the game with elbow
problems as he was unceremoni
ously dumped after the goal was
scored. No penalty was called on
the play.
Wallace added one more as time
expired to open a one game lead in
this best of three series.
The Pee Wees finished off their
regular home schedule on Monday,
January 22 as they were bombed by
an enthusiastic Elma-Logan squad
10 - 4.
Blyth opened the scoring 45
seconds into the contest as Mike
Bromley notched the goal on a
rebound of Benjie Hakker’s shot.
Sporadic goaltending led to Blyth’s
demise as the visitors scored the
final four goals of the period. Ryan
Chamney brought Blyth with in
range early in the second as he
deked the goalie on a breakaway
with assists to Brian McNichol and
Peter Craig.
The second period finished with
a flurry as seven goals were scored
in five minutes. Elma-Logan had
five of them as they went ahead by
a 9-4 count after two periods. Mike
Johnston scored Blyth’s third goal
on a nice wrist shot with assists to
Mike Bromley and Tim Lyons.
Marc Bricker and Mike Bromley
assisted on Blyth’s final goal as
Tim Lyons positioned himself at the
edge of the crease and took the
rebound off the back boards and
deposited the puck into the goal.
Things settled down in the third
with only one goal being scored as
Elma-Logan shocked the home
towners 10 - 4.
The team completed their regu
lar schedule on Friday, January 26
as they visited Wingham where
they powered their way to a 4-1
win.
After a scoreless first period
Blyth counted the only goal of the
second period with a power play
effort. Wilfred Datema’s point shot
was tipped by Ryan Chamney to
Brian McNichol at the corner of the
crease and Brian muscled the shot
home. Jerrod Button upped the
score to 2-0 early in the third as he
was set up beautifully in the slot by
Peter Craig.
After Wingham cut their lead in
half, Tim Lyons restored Blyth’s
two-goal lead on another power
play. Jonathan Collin’s shot was
redirected by Jerrod Button to Tim
Lyons in the slot where he scored
on a low drive.
The power play once again
proved fruitful in the last minute of
the game. This time it was Jerrod
Button who tucked the puck up
stairs with Jonathan Collins and
Tim Lyons assisting on the goal as
Blyth cruised to a 4-1 victory.

Blyth Novices upset
by Goderich, beat Wingham
WRITE IT
AND REAP!
On Thursday, Jan. 25 the Blyth

a close fast skating match to a
much improved Goderich team, by
the score of 5 to 4.

with both teams trading goals.
Goderich scored first early and
Blyth tied the game late in the first
period with Jeff Cowan picking the
corner, set up by Darryl Bromley

period and watched Goderich score
four unanswered goals. Blyth came
out in the third period, a much
stronger team popping in three
straight goals. Michael Courtney
beat the Goderich puck stopper on
a nice set up by Michael Ansley, for
Blyth’s second goal. Darryl Brom

Sanked one in off the Goderich
defencemen. Amanda Anderson

marked the game 5 to 4.
Blyth pulled their goalie Scott
Bromley for the last 29 seconds and
had two nice shots on net only to
have the Goderich goalie shut the
door. This was a game of many
missed chances, as Blyth had many
breakaways and two on ones, only
to be shut down by hot goaltending
by Goderich. Final score Goderich
