The Lancers never did find many openings, as McConnell sharp in goal Brian O'Connell backstopped the Royals to a 7-0 lead through two periods en route to an 8-3 victory on Friday night. Fired -up Wingham Royals down Lancers by score of 8-3 Wingham Royals turned on the jets Friday night and blew away the visiting Lucknow Lancers by a score of 8-3. Playing in front of their biggest crowd of the season (though there were still lots of prime seats available) the Royals responded by out - skating and outhustling the Lancers to take a 7-0 lead by the end of two periods. They then coasted to an 8-3 win. Brian O'Connell was in the nets for the Royals again in this game and the big goaltender showed the style that made him a draft choice of the Atlanta Flames in the NHL and earned him several seasons in the American league. He was particularly sharp in the second period when Lucknow had some good scoring chances as the Royals played two men short for more than a minute, but didn't give up a goal. The Royals were again flawless in their penalty - killing, shutting down the Lancers on all seven of their power -play chances while scoring a short-handed goal themselves. Wingham, meanwhile, was 0 -for -4 on the power play. The Royals opened the scoring with 6:52 left in the opening period on a goal that was a thing of beauty.

SHOWTIMES: FRIDAY AND SATUR- a ' DAY AT 7:00 AND 9:00 P.M. SUNDAY TO THURSDAY AT 8:00 P.M. ONLY. In the Year of Darkness, 2029, the rulers of this planet devised something that felt no pity. No pain. No fear: Something unstoppable. They treated combined to break up a Lancer rush in the centre ice area and then Foxton spotted Dave Stephenson lurking behind the Lucknow defence and sent him home free with a perfect pass. Stephenson got another goal a couple of minutes later on an unassisted effort with both teams playing a man short. He had the open net on a rebound after a teammate had held the puck in at the blueline. ' Going into the second period up 2-0, the Royals wasted no time increasing their lead. Foxton made it 3-0 in the first minute of the period as he was johnny-on- the-spot when goalie Ray Guay failed to corral the puck on Jay MacLaurin's soft shot, with Stephenson also drawing an assist. Tom Irwin made it 4-0 a minute later, with assists from Dave Burns and Doug McFarlan. McFarlan, who played a stand -out game, showing more moves than a cat on a hot tin roof, made it 5-0 on a fine individual effort, as he blocked a pass with his leg at the Lucknow line, went in and made a move to freeze the goalie before putting the shot upstairs. With the Royals playing a man short, Ken Cousins broke in on left wing and just missed with a hard shot. However Jay MacLaurin was trailing on the play and' cashed in the rebound for a 6- O lead. Brian Ten Pas scored the seventh goal, taking a pass from Foxton after McFarlan had put in some hard work in the corner to dig out the puck. The Lancers, who had occasionally seemed a step behind the play in the early going, appeared a little livelier in the third period as the Royals were content to coast with their lead. Jim Murray got the Lancers on the scoreboard from, a scramble around the net just 18 seconds into the period, with Randy Alton and Brad Humphrey drawing assists. Six minutes later, Steve McPherson, from Kent Alton and Steve Simpson, made it 2-0 on a play similarto the one that produced the first goal. Simpson got the third Lancer goal on a high shot from a sharp angle that eluded McConnell. Hum- phrey and McPherson drew assists. The goals proved to be nothing more than a con- solation prize.-- however, as the Royal lead was never threatened. Cousins, who has scored in virtually every game the Royals •have played, put the icing on the cake with 19 seconds left to go, Sandy Fitzgerald drawing the assist. The Royals were full value for the 8-3 win over a Lancer squad that shows a lot of promise, with a similar mix of seasoned veterans and young legs. They showed a lot of hustle,• as well as a successful team's knack of making the most of its chances and being in the right place at the right time. Goodall logged a lot of ice time on defence and played with poise, setting up a couple of goals and breaking up attacks with plays such as his sweeping check of Grant Gilchrist who appeared to be in alone on a breakaway in the third period. Burns, back from a knee operation, also played well, setting up the fourth Royal goal. Retired Royal Neil Bieman didn't play but had a profitable night all the same, winning $48 in the 50-50 draw. The anticipated fireworks Blues rack up two wins in their last match -ups By Jane Vath Ripley, the only new entry in the Intermediate ladies' league this year, was soundly defeated by the Wingham Blues in the first match -up of the season. Ripley played well in its first game, but still was no match for the Blues, losing 21-0 on home ice last Tuesday evening. Scoring for Wingham were Dianne Golley with six, Donna Fischer, Eileen and Kathleen O'Donoghue with four each and Tharon Riley with a hat trick. Last Saturday evening the Blues played host to the Tiverton Big Reds. Both teams played a tight defensive game in the first period, but opened up in the second. Anne Morris scored for Tiverton just minutes into the first period. Wingham didn't, start rolling until the second when Riley scored, assisted by Nancy Bieman and Lynne Haines. This seemed to start things off as Golley scored again twice to bring the Blues up to 3-1 where they stayed for the remainder of the game. BLUELINES-While playing Ripley the Blues were able to concentrate on their passing which seemed to pay off in the Tiverton match -up. Goalie Sandra Morrison's feet were a little cold by the end of the Ripley game as she only had to fend off one shot. Golley has been playing good hockey, racking up 10 points in the last two games. This Friday the Blues play Tavistock at 6 p.m. in the annual Milverton Cals Gals Tournament. The Blues host their next home game Dec. 8 at 8 p.m. when Ripley comes to town. in the wake of a penalty - filled match at Lucknow a couple of weeks ago never materialized. There was some heavy-duty thumping in the early going, but for the most part the teams stuck to hockey and played a clean game. The only players to strike up more than a passing acquaintance with the penalty timekeeper were Tom Irwin and Jim Murray, whose brief scuffle midway through the second period landed each in the box for 10 minutes to think things over. Lions host Kitchell, Teeswater The Wingham Lions Midgets hosted Mitchell last Thursday and settled for a 7- 7 tie. Robinson opened the scoring at the 10 -minute mark of the first period. Then Mitchell replied with two to end the period. In the second, Mitchell. scored four goals while Goodall scored one and Robinson added two to complete his hat trick. In the third, Wingham drew to within one on a power -play blast by Walden, assisted by Haines and Robinson. Then Murphy for Mitchell and Goodall for Wingham traded goals. With less than a minute to play, Wingham pulled the goalie for an extra attacker and Haines scored, assisted by Wheeler and Goodall, with 20 seconds left to make the final score 7-7. In an exhibition game Saturday at the Lockridge Memorial Arena, the Lions played host to Teeswater. Before the final buzzer went, 17 goals had been scored, 10 for the local boys and seven for Teeswater. Goal scorers for Teeswater were Sandy McDonald with three, and singles going to Schiestel, Cayley, Mike Schiestel and McFarlan. Wingham goal scorers were Bill Cameron with four, Jason Goodall with two and singles by Jim English, Mike Cameron, Jeff Walden and Bill Haines.

Nov. 28, 1984 -Page 15 Cousins fires three goals as Royals blitz Drayton 8-2 With all their big guns firing and Ron Smith covering the net like a blanket, the Wingham Royals had little difficulty extending their unbeaten streak on Sunday, trouncing the Drayton Intermediates by a score of 8-2. Fresh off a big win against Lucknow on Friday. night, the Royals took the lead in the first period and never looked back. Once again, Ken Cousins had a big game to pace the team on offence, scoring three of the first four goals and setting up another later in the game. Mike Watson had a big game defensively for Wingham while Ron Smith, who has been alternating with Brian O'Connell in goal, came up with another fine effort, stopping 40 of the 42 shots that came his way. The Royals also had 42 shots on goal, but their success rate was better. The referee was kept busy, handing out 14 penalties to Wingham and 10 to Drayton, all of the minor variety. Once again Wingham's penalty -killers were letter- perfect, however, holding Drayton off the scoreboard on all nine of its man - advantage opportunities, while the Royal power play clicked once in five tries. Cousins, who has proven to be a remarkable scoring Bridge Motors 6, Crawfords 3; Crawfords 10, Advance - Times 4; Staintons 8, Advance - Times 3. Standings after five games are: Bridge, 5-0-0, 10 pts.; Staintons, 3-2-0, six points; Crawfords, 2-3-0, four points; Advance -Times, 0-5-0, zero points. machine for the Royals this year, got Wingham on the scoreboard first with an unassisted power play goal midway through the first period. Mark Foxton, who has shown a steady im- provement with each game with the big team, made it 2- 0 with his goal, assisted by Ken Fitzgerald, four minutes later. Drayton came back to make it 2-1 before the end of the period, John Grose getting' the goal from Ian Brotherston, but that was as close as they would come. The Royals picked up the pace in the second, with Cousins scoring two goals four minutes apart to make it 4-1. The first was set up by Brian Ten Pas, while Len Stamper assisted on the second. Dave Stephenson's goal in the dying minutes of the period increased the lead to 5-1. In the third, the Royals hit the ice on the fly and poured in three more goals in the first three minutes before Drayton skaters knew what hit them. Jay MacLaurin, returning from a five -stitch cut when he was hit above the eye in the first period, showed it didn't affect his aim as he potted the first with less than a minute gone in the period, Stephenson and Foxton drawing assists. Randy Clarke got the seventh Royal goal about 30 seconds later, from Cousins and Ten Pas, while Sandy. Fitzgerald completed the rout, set up by Dave Golley. Drayton's final goal came with less than five minutes to play to make the score 8-2. This was the first meeting of the season between the Royals and Drayton. Of all their opponents in the WOAA Intermediate league this season, Woodford is the only team the Royals have yet to meet, as the two wins over the weekend stretched their record to 7-0-2 for the year. So far Ripley has been the only club to give them much trouble, the teams battling to 4-4 and 5-5 ties in their two meetings to date. Coaches Bill Kerr and Al Dickson have the Royals playing fine hockey, with well-balanced scoring, tenacious defence and stingy goaltending. If they can prevent the team from becoming complacent with too much success, there is no reason it should not continue to improve. The only game this weekend sees Wingham traveling to Teeswater for a 1:30 p.m. game on Sunday. The next home game will be Dec. 7 when the Lucknow Lancers return to try to avenge their recent loss. Game time will be 8:30 p.m. Howick Atoms edged out at Harriston tournament The Howick Atoms par- ticipated in the Harriston tournament last Saturday and Sunday. The boys played a very good brand of hockey, being edged out in the finals by 'Listowel. Howick played Shallow Lake last Saturday. It was a real thriller throughout and ended in a shoot-out after five minutes of sudden -death overtime. Shallow Lake built up a 4-2 lead after one period of play. Howick goals were scored by Trevor Smith and Philip Livermore, with assists going to Aaron Stewart and Livermore. Livermore scored twice in the second period to tie the game at 4-4. He and Stewart also scored in the third, but Shallow Lake fought back to tie the game at the end of regulation time. There was no scoring in the five minutes of sudden - death overtime, thus necessitating a shoot-out. Each team was allowed to have three players take a shot on net and the total goals scored were counted. Livermore chalked up the only marker to give Howick a narrow 7-6 victory. Dennis Wintemute was superb in the Howick net, stopping all three shooters. Livermore was voted Howick's most valuable player in the game. Howick 3, Hanover 2 Howick and Hanover put on a display of nerve- wracking hockey for the spectators. Players from both teams gave a 100 per cent effort and are to be congratulated on their great skills. Howick Peewees have 11 victories The line of Robbie Van- DenBroek, Steve Gibson and Steven MacGregor led Howick to its tenth straight victory last Monday evening against Ripley. The final score was 7-1 and the line had 12 scoring points. Gibson had three goals and two assists, MacGregor picked up one goal and three assists, while VanDenBroek had two goals and one assist. The other goal scorer for Howick was John Greig. Jayson Potts, Donald Livermore and Oliver Tritten picked up assists on neat passing plays during the contest. On Sunday evening the PeeWees made it 11 straight wins in a row by defeating Harriston 5-2 in a close contest. Tritten scored two first - period goals to give Howick a 2-0 lead. Assists on the goals went to Jason Jacobson, Potts and Jaret Henhoeffer. Five goals were scored in the second period with Dave Ross getting two for Harriston. Gibson and Livermore scored unassisted goals for Howick. Andrew Weber, assisted by Liver- more, gave Howick the final insurance marker. The third period remained scoreless. Hanover scored goals in each of the first two periods to lead Howick 2-0 after two frames. Michael Hargrave scored his first of two goals after only one minute of play in the third, assisted by Michael Greig. Minutes later Greig tied the score at 2-2, assisted by Livermore. The goaltenders on both sides continued to make great stops. Then with only 35 seconds remainingin regulation time, Kyle Wheeler scored the winner for Howick on a slapshot with Livermore assisting on the play. Wheeler was named the Howick mvp. The Howick management had nothing but praise for young goaltenders Win- temute and Darren Brown for their great saves. Listowel 6, Wingham 2 The Listowel Cyclones overpowered Howick in the third period to break up a close 3-2 game and go on to defeat Howick 6-2 to capture the Harriston Blues Hockey Tournament championship title. Howick managed to stay with the Cyclones for two periods, getting goals from Wheeler and Stewart. Greig and Livermore assisted. In the third period the boys ran out of steam and dragged under the pressure of the Cyclones. Congratulations are ex- tended to the Howick team for the fine effort throughout the tournament. Brown, received the mvp award for Howick in this final match and each boy received a medal for being runners-up and a participation crest. NOW YOU SEE IT: NOW YOU DON'T -Doug McFarlan left everyone standing still as he intercepted a clearing pass at the blueline, dipsy-doodled around the defenders and deked goalie Ray Guay to 'the ice before tucking the puck into the open side for the fifth Royal goal Friday night. All the Royals were flying as they outhustled the Lucknow Lancers for an 8-3 win.
