Bulls defeat
Seaforth 10-5
The Brussels Jr D Bulls continue
to hold second place in the western
loop after their 10-5 victory over
Seaforth Friday night. However,
with a record of 18 wins, 14 losses
and two ties and two games
remaining the Bulls can still finish
anywhere from second to sixth
place, a credit to the balanced
league they play in.
As in previous games against the
Centennaires the Bulls jumped
quickly into a lead with Nicholls
scoring from Kieffer and Talsma at
the 18 second mark. The Bulls
increased their lead to 3-0 when
Campbell scored unassisted at
11:06 and combined with Strome to
set up Kinahan 33 seconds later.
As is becoming a Bulls trade
mark the Juniors gave up a goal
with eight seconds remaining in the
period and four minutes into the
second found themselves in a tie
Pee Wees defeat Seaforth
The deciding game of the first
round of playoffs between Brussels
and Seaforth was held on Feb. 4 at
the Seaforth arena, with Brussels
winning 3-2.
Seaforth started the scoring off
into the first two minutes of play.
The first period was almost over at
1:39 remaining when Brussels got
warmed up and Ryan Finch scored,
assisted by Matt Lee.
Belgrave Atoms beat Goderich
Belgrave Atoms played Sunday
afternoon in Goderich. At first
nobody had much energy, in fact at
times it looked as if they were
sleepy but as usual they pulled
together and scored enough goals
to make it a win.
Brussels Atoms defeat Howick
Brussels Atom Rep team scored
an overtime win over Howick
January 31 to complete a sweep of
their OMHA playoff series.
Randy Beuermann gave Brussels
a 1-0 lead early in the first period

game. A Strome shorthanded goal
was matched by a Seaforth goal
midway through the period before
Strome scored on the powerplay on
passes from Rutledge and Vincent
for a 5-4 lead after 40 minutes.
The Bulls blew the game open in
the third as Nicholls fired two for
the hat-trick, Campbell and Kina
han both scored their second of the
night and Strome notched his third
of the game.
The coaching staff of Coulter/
Nichol did some line juggling for
the game much to the chagrin of a
few parents, but despite com
plaints will use the new lines into
the playoffs, in order to get more
balanced scoring and a better
‘Team’ effort.
The Bulls finish their schedule
this weekend, travelling to Welles
ley Friday night and playing at
home Sunday at 2 p.m. against the
Tavistock Braves.
Into the second period Brussels
kept going with Matt Lee scoring,
assisted by Greg Fritz.
Three minutes later at 10:25
Ryan Finch scored with assists
from Brett Clarkson and Tim
Machan.
In the final period Seaforth
scored a goal in the last five
minutes of play. It was a close
game till the end but Brussels held
on for a victory.
Brent Robinson and Corey Mor
an scored two goals each. With
being short three players and some
of the rest of the team not feeling
100 per cent it was not all that bad
an effort. Hope for better speed
and health next game. The final
score was Belgrave 4, Goderich 3.
in the third but just 31 seconds
later Trevor Machan scored an
unassisted goal to tie the game.
With 6:56 left in the game Howick
scored again. David Lewington
scored from Trevor Machan to send
the game into overtime.
Randy Beuermann’s second goal
in the game from Mike Dauphin at
4:50 of the overtime period gave
Brussels the victory in the game
and the series.
Blyth Atoms
BY RUSTY BLADES
The Blyth Atoms completed a
two game sweep of Huron Park last
week in a first round WO A A match
up.
The line of McNichol, Arthur and
Rutledge provided the offensive
power with 18 scoring points in an
impressive 11-2 romp in game one
at Blyth on February 1. Jason
Rutledge dented the twine four
times as well as chipping in with
two assists. Brian McNichol netted
two goals but, more impressively,
showed off his playmaking abilities
with an incredible five assists. Left
winger Scott Arthur had his best
offensive output of the season as he
counted two goals and three as
sists. Blyth’s other line also contri
buted to the scoring assault as
Henry Bos scored two goals and
one assist, Ryan Chamney scored
one goal and one assist while
Christopher Howson counted three
assists. Rob Johnston notched an
impressive trio of assists while
Brad Anderson chipped in with
one.
After spotting the opposition an
early 2-1 lead the whole Atom
Brussels Atoms
ousted
by Drayton
After defeating Howick in the
first round of their OMHA playoffs,
Brussels Atoms moved on to play a
hot Drayton team Friday night.
Playing on their home ice the
Brussels team came back to tie the
score early in the second after
Drayton had taken a 1-0 first period
lead. Randy Beuermann scored the
goal with Jamie Smith getting the
assist.
Drayton took the lead again four
minutes later and added to the lead
midway through the third. David
Lewington drew Brussels closer
with only 34 seconds left in the
game on an assist from Trevor
Machan but any thoughts of a last
minute miracle were dashed when
Drayton scored with just 21
seconds left.
That proved to be as close as the
series got because when Brussels
travelled to Drayton Sunday, Brus
sels just couldn’t put the puck in
the net. Drayton scored one in each
of the first and second periods,
then blew the game open with five
goals in the third for a 7-0 win to
clinch the series.
Due to space limitations some
sports stories had to be held for
next week.

team started clicking on all eight

11-2 opening win.
Game number two in Huron Park
last Friday was a different story as
Huron Park played tough before
Blyth rebounded in the third frame
in a 5-3 win.
The opposition had Blyth on the
ropes as they had a 3-1 lead after
the completion of two periods.
Blyth’s first goal came three se
conds into a power play as Ryan
Chamney won a face off to Henry
Bos who quickly buried the puck in
the net.
This line got Blyth back into the
game, early in the third as they tied
the game with two goals in eight
seconds. Ryan Chamney and Chris

for Blyth’s second goal. Eight
seconds later Christopher Howson
tied the game at 3-3 with assists to
Ryan Chamney and Henry Bos.

Five minutes later Jason Rut
ledge scored the winner on a Blyth
power play. Rob Johnston cleared
the puck into the Huron Park zone
where Scott Arthur dug the puck
out to Jason who was standing
alone in the slot. With six minutes
left in the game Brian McNichol
scored an unassisted power play
goal as he ripped another patented
bullet past a shaken opposition
goalie. This goal gave Blyth some
breathing room as the Cardiac Kids
hung on for a 5-3 win.
The Atoms now play Wallace in

Kurtzville on Tuesday while game
two is in Blyth tonight, Wednes
