Friday night in Mitchell the Bulls blew a three goal third period lead and skated to a 5-5 tie with the Seaforth Centenaires. Brussels jumped into a 3-1 first period lead on goals by Ron Strome, Dwaine Nicholls and Jeff Coulter, and increased the margin to 5-2 after 40 minutes on Strome’s second and a Marty Rutledge marker. However a surprisingly strong Seaforth squad scored three unanswered goals in the third, the last with 24 seconds left on the clock. Peter Stewart went the distance in goal in a highly spirited contest in which 193 minutes in penalties were called. Saturday night in Wingham it was the Bulls turn to come from behind in a 6-6 tie with the Goderich Sailors. Goderich jumped quickly into the lead scoring twice in the opening three minutes of play before Ryan Gallaher cut the margin to 2-1 at the end of one period. Goderich increased their lead to 3-1 but consecutive goals by Galla her, Rutledge and Strome gave the Bulls their first lead of the game. Goderich struck early in the third before J. C. Hewitt again gave the Bulls a lead. Goderich tied the score and went ahead with five minutes remaining until, with goa lie Murray Townsend on the bench, a Bevin Flett point shot found the top comer through a maze of skaters with seven seconds left in the contest. Sunday afternoon the Bulls tra velled to Goderich for a rematch and skated to a 7-6 victory. The Goderich squad once again hit the scoreboard early before goals by Jason Kraemer, Kevin DeJong and Jeff Coulter gave the Bulls a 3-2 lead after 20 minutes. The teams split four second period goals with Dwaine Nicholls and Ron Strome finding the mark and the Bulls held a 5-4 lead heading into the third period. Ron Strome increased the lead to a 6-4 but Goderich scored twice in 71 seconds to tie the game. A Steve Fritz wrap-around with nine min utes remaining proved to be the game winner. Pete Stewart and Murray Townsend split the goal tending duties evenly for the Bulls. While the Bulls have played four lines on an equal basis with no definite specialty teams their pen alty killing has been less than superb. Of the 12 weekend goals scored by Goderich, 10 were powerplay markers. Twenty players have signed on the dotted line for the Bulls as they prepare for their league opener in Walkerton at 2:00. Their home opener is Oct. 15 also against the Walkerton Black Hawks.
