Bulls drop second
game of season
Brussels Bulls’ winger Brian Zabel (20) gets checked out of the goal mouth by an Orangeville
Crushers’ defenceman during Sunday afternoon’s loss to the Crushers. Bulls lost only their second
game of the year to the team that was last year’s all-Ontario Jr. C champions.
Blyth Pee Wees tie Clifford 2-2
Sunday afternoon saw the
Orangeville Crushers beat the
Bulls 8-5 in Midwestern Junior C
hockey action.
The first period ended knotted at
zero. However, 50 seconds into the
second Orangeville scored a power
play goal off the stick of Mike
Tierney from Scott Cowan. This
opened the flood gates as Orange
ville scored the next four goals to
take a 5-0 lead. The Bulls finally
got on the score sheet at 6:32 as
Brett Martin scored on a pass from
Bevin Flett.
However, Orangeville got that
goal back at 3:31 as Scott Cowan
scored on a pass from Jamie Litt
and the Crushers skated to the
dressing room with a 6-1 lead.
The Jr. Bulls played a strong
third period as Marty Rutledge
scored at 15:16 on a pass from
Steve Fritz. Rutledge knotched a
power play goal at 9:53. At 6:39 the
Bulls looked like they were staging
a come back as Steve Fritz scored
on a pass from Jeff McKee.
However, Orangeville broke the
Bulls’ backs with 3:04 left in the
game as Peter Ardis scored on a
pass from Mike Tierney.
The Bulls pulled their goalies but
this backfired as well as Jamie
McCullough scored into the empty
net from Marcel Babineau with 41
seconds left. The Bulls got that
goal back with one second left as
Shawn Chipchase scored an una-
sisted effort. But it was too little,
too late as the final score was 8-5.
This week the Bulls have a very
busy weekend as they travel to
Walkerton Friday night, then travel
to Mt. Forest for a Saturday night
match. They return home Sunday
afternoon to face off against the
Wingham Ironmen at 2 p.m. This
week’s $50 winner was Margaret
Struthers of Kitchener.

The Blyth Legion Pee Wee’s had
a single game last week as they tied
Clifford 2-2 in an exhibition en
counter in Blyth on Monday,
November 19.
Blyth scored the only goal of the
first period as Brad Anderson
found Henry Bos in the slot and
Henry fired a low drive to the
Clifford goalie’s stick side.
The two combined again early in
the second period as Henry found
Brad alone in the slot and Brad
wristed a shot upstairs and over the
goalie’s shoulder.
Clifford cut the deficit in half
with a power play goal with
a minute and a half left in the
period and scored the equalizer one
minute later on a long bullet- like
shot.
The teams played a scoreless
third frame to end the game
deadlocked at two. Once again the
callups, (for this game they were
Jason McDougall and Chris Stew
art), played a sound two-way game
for the Legion Pee Wees.
QUOTE OF THE WEEK: Sports
writer Dick Trust, after the left
wing of the plane carrying the
Boston Bruins hit a bus in a minor
accident at the Los Angeles Air
port: “The Bruin’s problems at left
wing continue”.
