Botfi the Ironmen and the Sailors had two points in the early season, but last Goderich night's 9-5 win put Goderich ahead in the standings. The Goderich club started out hitting everything in a blue sweater and took the play to the Ironmen in the early going. At 6:53, big defenceman Pete Willems drew first blood for the Sailors by letting a hard shot fly from the point that found the Ironmen net. Then at 11:09, Kevin Lee's shot from the slot, with his team en- joying a two-man advantage, 'staked the Sailors to a 2-0 lead. John Turnbull in the Wingham net kept things close with a number of dazzling saves, particularly one on Shawn Rahbeck, who failed to beat Turnbull on his glove side on a breakaway. In the second period, after Turnbull robbed the Sailor's Brad Armstrong when he went in all alone, the Sailors upped the score to 3-0 with Kevin Telford potting one in heavy traffic at 2:45 on a Sailor power play. The Ironmen finally got on the board with a powerplay effort at 6:09 by Bill Haines with a big shot from the point that eluded Sailor goalie Randy Gaynor's out- stretched glove. Jamie Robinson took a long leadoff pass from Haines and outraced two Sailor defen- ders before beating goalie Rockers post a win and a loss last week By Fraser Strong The Wingham Rockers Oldtimers' Hockey Club posted a win and a loss last week, defeating Clinton 7-3, 'but losing to Durham 3-1. The Rockers took on the new Durham Legion Old- timers last Tuesday and came out on the short end of a 3-1 score. Rockers' rookies Gary Lisle and Bob Arm- strong figured in Wingham's only goal. Armstrong dug the puck out • of the corner to Lisle, who fed a perfect pass to Wayne Brown. He then slid the puck past Hargrave in the Durham net. Hard work produced many scoring opportunities for the Rockers, but they failed to. capitalize. In last Saturday night's match, the Rockers hosted another new oldtimers' team, the "Flaming Foul - Ups" from Clinton. The Rockers skated to a 7-3 victory. Fraser Strong led Wingham's scoring assault with a strong, three -goal performance. Ray Walker, Ken Balzer, Jim English and Ron Beecroft all picked up. singles. Len Houghton of the Rockers. had a.. goal disallowed because ., the referee said he was in the crease. Actually, Houghton never really shot the puck into the net. It . merely deflected off his arm, so he said he wasn't too upset at the call, but was concerned about the bruise on his arm. INJURY REPORT— Speedy centre Ross Davies is sidelined for an indefinite period with a pulled muscle in his back. Lisle and George Skinn played double shifts in last Tuesday evening's game after Davies was injured: Lisle said the extra work made him feel young again, however Skinn said it made him feel tired. Don't forget the Rockers' tournament will be played in the Blyth arena from Nov. 21 to 24, featuring 16 teams. There's also a free dance on the Saturday night in ad- dition to the hockey action. Gaynor at 11:56 to bring the Ironmen to within one goal. Unfortunately for the Wingham side, the Sailors came right back 21 seconds later John Thompson beating Turnbull with a quick wrist shot high on the glove side. Wingham again climbed to within one goal of the home side when Paul Tolton's point shot caromed off Tim Brown in front of the Goderich goal at 14:07 with Wingham enjoying ,a two- man advantage. However after this point the roof caved in for the Ironmen as the Sailors came up with three goals in a span of 85 seconds to take, a com- manding 7-3 lead. Sailor goals were scored by Lee, his second Darryl Madge with a low, hard shot to the stick. side and Grant Garnow, whose shot threaded the needle when goalie Turnbull came far out of his net to -cut the angle. Brown scored his second goal at 18:15 on a shot from the slot to send'the teams to their 'respective- dressing rooms with the Sailors up 7-4. In the third period. John Thompson and Chris, Sideris scored at 3:48 and 12:10 respectively to stake the Sailors to a 9-4 lead. Robinson, Wingham's quick, small forward, closed out the scoring at 12:38 with his second marker of the night on a centring pass from /Jason Goodall. Although the Goderich club outscored the Ironmen in every period and generally outhustled and outhr�t>ie local la ,it- mu t - be understood that the Wingham team was playing severely shorthanded with only 12 skaters, compared to 17 for the Sailors. In ;par- ticular, credit should be given to young Brett Martin who, although still Midget age, has been used by Coach Skinn on the left wing and defence and who was double shifted all evening.
