The Huron Expositor, 1996-10-09, Page 611—TNI HURON EXPOSITOR, Octobor 9, 1996 `Rubble' as in trouble Barton's pair helps Cents torpedo Lakers Veteran Tim Barton's two goals; ope on the powerplay, helped propel the Centenaires to a 4-3 win over the Port Stanley Lakers at Seaforth Friday night. "Barney 1", as in "Rubble" is on a bit of a tear early. this Ontario Hockey Association Junior "D"evelopment League season, with four goals in the Cents' first three games, and another four (including a hat trick) in Seaforth's final couple of pre -season exhibition games. His brother, identical twin Terry, is "Barney the Second" but plays defence for the Seaforth juniors. • .Their teammates tease both Barncys as straight out of Bedrock and The Flinstones, but they are actually from Stratford. Both play with a gleeful abandon best summed up by that old saying: "The bigger they come, the harder they fall." Their father, Earl, played much of his hockey here in Seaforth in days gone by. Tim is a sophomore at the University of Waterloo. He averaged about a point a game last season, including 13 goals, in his third go - round with the Centenaires. At his current rate he would end up in the Bobby Hull bracket with a titch (.66) more than 50 goals. This might be hallucinating on math, but even then would all be bonus because Tim is just as valuable to the Green for his style of relent- less attack, which wears down the opposition, particu- larly when killing penalties. This the Centenaires had to do well Friday night, particu- larly in the second period, in a knuckle -gnawer that went down to the wire. ANYBODY'S GAME An old Cent, Steve Geiger, scored his first back in the fold, and Mark Van Dooren got the other Seaforth goal. It was 1-1 after the first period. The Cents 'took a 3-1 lead in the first two minutes of the second, but played short- handed for about 14 of the next 18 minutes, a couple of times down by two players. The penalty -killers only coughed -up one before Van Dooren restored the two -goal cushion with Less than two minutes left in the second. Port Stanley pulled to one goal back in the first three minutes of the final period. And the game could have Soccer trophies galore CONTINUED'from Pg. 5, er shootout, which St. Columban took 3-1. Steve Ryan scored for St. Columban and Jason Dietz made the save against the Londoners. Then Wayne Ryan did likewise for the locals, ditto Dietz. Then Murray made it three -straight scores for St. Columban, but Forest ;got one. Sean Melady's shot was then saved, but Forest fired wide. And it was all over but the party. Now St. Columban is play- ' ing in this round-robin all second divisions playoff, which means nothing save for the competition, against a team from Sarnia and another from London. They play the London team at St. Columban in this "Final, final, final, final" competition Thursday' nigh( at 6 p.m. Unless darkness immediately starts coming later it may prove difficult to play two 45 minute halves in the -middle ' of those cornfields, out behind the church, where this fine soccer club plays.

Seaforth's Scott Wood was sharper than either of Port Stanley's puckstoppers, last year's Cents' back-up goalie Mike Stephenson and veteran Laker all-star Brad Jowarski. Wood faced 38 shots, The Laker twosome dodged 27. Referee Joe Celestin tagged Seaforth with 11 minor penalties, a major and two game misconducts. The Lakers had a half-dozen minors, a major and a game. GEIGER'S RETURN Geiger was signed by the Cents Tuesday night and a release was worked out with the junior B London Nationals (who are affiliated with Port Stanley) by early afternoon Wednesday. He was top rookie point - getter on the London junior 13 team last season and tied for the Nationals' Icad in power- play goals. Th. I9 -year-old from Zwich is in his second year of kinesiology at. the University of Western Ontario and he found the junior B workload was affecting his schooling this year. He said hockey wasn't fun anymore so decided to come back to Seaforth, although many junior teams coveted his services. The Cents originally signed him as a 16 year-old from the Zurich Thunder, and he only missed one game in the next two seasons hcre, scoring 30 goals and 43 assists with a mere 21 penalty minutes in 79 regular season games. He also helped the Cents run off a delightfully unex- pected team record eight - straight playoff wins when he and the Ramcrs, also from Zurich, played "Shadow" and Seaforth played "Cinderella" all the way to the division finals in 1994-95. Geiger was named the most valuable player for the West Conference in the OHA Junior "D"evelopment League all-star game that spring. Coach Dave Murray kind of summed it up for the Cents when he said, "We are proud that you chose us," when Steve signed after Tuesday night's practice. He played on a line with Steve Mclnally and captain Jason Henderson in Friday night's game. Meanwhile, third -year for- ward Jeff Vollan4 of Goderich has handed.b his equipment and left the team, saying hockey isn't fun any- more. Ditto for Jeff Klages who is also talking about going back to play senior in Goderich, though the Pirates released him a week ago. The Centenaires are on the road to Lucan in the Morenz Division tonight at 8:15 (Wednesday). They host the North Middlesex Stars in divisional play again here Friday night at 8:30 and are at Lambeth (hopefully) before tucking into the turkey, Sunday night for a game with the Lancers that gets started at 7:30.
