West Wawanosh plans
July 25th celebration
BY RUSTY BLADES
The Blyth Bantams played three
games in their round-robin Group
Championship series as they beat
Brussels and split a pair of games
with Zurich.
Blyth visited Brussels on March
11 as they rebounded from an early
5-2 deficit to shade Brussels 7-5 in
overtime. Brussels took a 3-1 first
period lead with Jerrod Button
deflecting Peter Craig's shot for
Blyth's goal while on a power play.
Tim Lyons stole the puck at the
blueline and scored an unassisted
goal late in the first to bring Blyth
to within a goal.
After Brussels took a 5-2 second
period lead, Brian McNichol
responded for Blyth before the
period ended, with assists to
Michael Bromley and Michael de
Jong. McNichol then scored from a
Michael Bromley pass early in the
third as Blyth cut the lead to 5-4.
This set the stage for the late game
heroics as Brian McNichol and Jer
rod Button set up Michael Brom
ley's tying goal with two minutes
left in the third.
It was all Blyth the rest of the
way as they scored two overtime
goals to claim victory. Michael
Bromley and Brian McNichol set
up Michael de Jong's game winner
on a power play 49 seconds into the
extra period. Christopher Howson
notched an insurance goal two and
a half minutes later as he re-direct
ed a Ryan Chamney pass at the
crease. Brussels never threatened
again as Blyth won the opener 7-5.
Blyth then hosted Zurich on
March 16 with Zurich using a late
power play goal as insurance to
edge Blyth 5-3. Zurich scored the
only first period goal and outscored
Blyth 3-2 in the second to make a
4-2 lead after two. Blyth evened the
score at 1-1 early in the second as
Benjie Hakkers sent Michael
Bromley in on a break away for the
goal. Zurich took a 4-1 lead before
Blyth scored late in the period on a
power play. Michael de Jong and
Brian McNichol assisted on Peter
Craig's goal as he backhanded a
shot over the goalie's shoulder.
Jerrod Button and Christopher
Howson assisted on Brian McNi-
chol's screened shot early in the
third as Blyth got back into a game,
they were now trailing 4-3. It was
solid two-way hockey the rest of
the way with Zurich counting a late
power play goal in their 5-3 win.
Blyth turned the tables two nights
later as they travelled to Zurich on
March 18 and used a late goal to
nip Zurich 5-4.
The teams traded single first
period goals as Christopher How
son and Brian McNichol assisted
on Jerrod Button's game opening
goal. Zurich took a 3-1 lead in the
second But Blyth cut the lead to 3-
2 before the period expired.
Michael Bromley set up Wilfred
Datema's blueline blast and Ryan
Chamney backhanded home the
rebound. Michael Bromley then
assisted on Peter Craig's tying goal
three minutes into the third. Ten
seconds later Blyth had a 4-3 lead
as Bromley and Ryan Chamney
assisted on Tim Lyon's easy tip in.
Although Zurich tied the game
midway through the third, Tim
Lyons and Michael Bromley
teamed up less than one minute
later for the eventual game winner.
Bromley swung in front of the
crease and slid the puck under the
fallen Zurich puck stopper.
