BY RUSTY BLADES
The first game of the Blyth-
Milverton novice series was played
last Wednesday evening on
Blyth’s home pond with the locals
escaping with a 5-2 triumph.
The Scoring Machine staked
Blyth toa 2-0 first period lead with a
couple of unanswered tallies.
Jason Rutledge sent Henry Bos
in on goal with a nice pass before
Henry cutin front of the net and slid
the puck under the goaltender for
the game opening marker. Before
the period had ended, Blyth
notched a power play goal as Brian
McNichol and Jason Rutledge sent
Henry Bos down the left wing side
and he rifled a shot just under the
crossbar.
Less than a minute into the
second frame, Milverton cut
Blyth’s lead in half but Blyth
replied before the period ended to
restore theJr two goal lead. Ryan
Chamney headmanned the puck to
ChrisHowsonwhocuttothe net
and took a shot on goal. The goalie
made a pad save before Scott
Arthur pounced on the rebound
and pushed the puck across the
goal line.
Blyth upped the count to 4-1 in
the third as defenceman Peter
Craig intercepted an errant clear
ing pass in the Milverton zone and
lit the goal light up with a wicked
wrist shot. One minute later
Brussels Pre-novices
please fans
It was a beautiful, warm, sunny,
spring day when the Brussels
Pre-Novice Sprouts travelled to the
Lucknow Flea Tournament this
past Saturday. They must have had
a touch of Spring Fever, as they
provided their fans with two
exciting, well-played games of
hockey.
Ripley, unknowingly, did the
wrong thing when they scored the
first goal just two minutes into the
game, because from there on in,
Brussels was on the warpath.
Halfway through the first period,
after many shots on net, Steven
Goob) Machan scored the first

Mil ver ton cut the lead to 4-2 but
Blyth completed the scoring with a
shorthanded goal with two minutes
and one second left in the contest.
Peter Craig made a rewarding rink
length race down the right wing
boards. Ryan Chamney caught up
to him at the Milverton blue line
where they split the defence and
went in alone on the helpless
goaltender. Peter drew the goal
tender to one side of the crease
before he cleverly passed across
the net to Ryan who easily tipped
the disc into the now vacated goal.
This was by no means a classic
confrontation as neither team
seemed to be able to skate or pass
with any authority but Blyth hung
on for a 5-2 win. Game two was
