Cents slide after back-to-back losses
If the Seaforth Centenaires
aren't "hearing footsteps"
instead of bells this week
before Christmas - they should
be!
The were taken down a notch
in the Ontario Hockey As-
sociation Junior "D"evelopment
League standings by back-to-
back losses to the Exeter
Hawks then Tavistock Braves
on the weekend, 4-2 and 6-3.
Sitting now in third place
they face a home -and -home
holiday series with the team
breathing down their neck in
the Morem. Division standings,
none other than their biggest
rival, the Mitchell Hawks, right
now the second hottest team in
the enure 18 -team league.
Those Hawks started slow
but now have two fewer losses
and are only five points back
of Seaforth, with three games
in hand, and in the last six

weeks have taken 17 of a pos-
sible 22 points.
They also t<ave a bit of a bee
in their bonnet, about having
had a six -game winning streak
snapped against the unbeaten
other Hawks in their last start
at Exeter Sunday night, with an
overtime loss, for which they
nevertheless carded a point in a
game they led 3-1 midway
through the first period.
The Centenaires host the
Hawks Friday night at 8:30,
then return the favour at
Mitchell the day after Boxing
Day, Wednesday at 8:30 p.m.
in the now annual Christmas
doubleheader between the two
traditional hockey foes.
The Centenaires handled
Mitchell quite handily at
Monkton just past the middle
of Novenit t, but could only
manage a 2-2 ue on home ice
in Seaforth about week later, in
the only games they have
played so far this season.
If the Cents play like they
did Saturday night at Tavistock
they will get smoked. They
were "lackluster", to say the
least, in a 6-3 loss to the
Braves, who climbed out of the
basement in the far weaker
Bauer Division with the win.

Seaforth had trouble
finishing, and controlling the
point in its own end, and faced
better goaltending. They often
looked disorganir.cd, trying to
be too fancy.
Derek. Boonstra in the Tavis-
tock net faced 49 shuts. Mike
Stephenson, Chris Lyndon,
then Stephenson again faced 33
at the Seaforth end.
Steve Mclnally had a three-
point night with two goals and
an assist, and Brent Hulley got
the other goal for the Cen-
tenaires,
The Cents led 3-2 until the
Braves scored twice on the
powerplay just past the midway
point of the second period,
added another four minutes
later, and were off to the races.
It was the Centenaires final
visit to the old Tavistock ban,
where pucks often soar through
criss-crossed wooden beams
and with its unique three -row
players' benches and dressing
rooms so small the Cents had
to dress in shifts one game this
pre -season, which is scheduled
to be torn down. If the Braves
advance in this year's playoffs
they will have to play home
games somewhere else if
construction of the town's new
arena is to get underway on
schedule.
Friday night at Seaforth was
a far better hockey game, in
front of 330 fans, the largest
crowd of the season. The
Exeter Hawks won but the
Cents played well.
Captain Jason McBride's
insurance goal trickled an inch
or so over the line. past Scott
Wood with a little tore than
live minutes remaining and
kept Exeter's unbeaten run
alive at 18 games.
The first period was scoreless
and the second ended 1-1, with
J.C. Kirk putting a rebound
upstairs in the mesh on former
Ccntenaire Dave Nahrgang for
the Scaforth goal.
Clinton's Nate Burns, veteran
league scoring leader Shayne
Robinson and McBride scored
for the Hawks in the third, with
Terry Barton replying for
Seaforth.
Hulley played his best game
yet in junior, showing poise
beyond his years shadowing
