Ir • nmenBarons .series
The Wingham. Ironmen have tied
their group finals with the Hanover
Barons at onegame apiece by virtue
of an impressive double overtime
win played in front of large home-
town crowd Sunday at the Lockridge
Memorial Arena.
The -game started off fast and
furious with the Barons applying
pressure right from the opening
face-off, only to have some key
scoring chances spoiled by the ace -
goaltending performance of Greg
McClement in the Ironmen net.
The Ironmen did not back down,
nor give the Barons an inch and
were rewarded with the opening
goal of the game. Right after a face-
off in the Barons' end, with the Iron -
men on the power play, Brad
Priestap fed Richard Bowman a
pass. Bowman put the puck back to
J. C. Hewitt, whosedeadly shotfrom
the point had the Barons'net bulging
at 10:07 of the opening frame.
The Ironmen penalty killers were
working overtime irl this period as
they had to play short-handed and on
one occasion, they were two men
short for over a minute. However,
they did a stand -out job holding the
Barons at bay to end the period with
a one -goal lead.
The Barons tied things up at one -
all at 14:53 of the second period when
their top scorer, Rob Beitz,
managed to get one by McClement.
Five minutes later Bevin Ffett- hit
Brad Murray, with a pass in our own
end and Murray carriedthe puck the
length of the ice, _ making. his ,way
past the Baron defense and making
no mistake in pulling. Hanover
netminder Bill Nightingale toward
him as he skated around him and
potted the go-ahead goaL
The Barons' Ray Buttineau gave
his team the tying goal with only 29
seconds remaining in the second
frame to take the edge away from
the Ironmen going • into the third
period.
It was an early shower for Hewitt
who, with only 45 seconds elapsed in
the third period, was suckered: into a
questionable five-minute fighting
and game misconduct by big Caleb
Bowald. We were under the
inn e : lion it takes two to fight.
w 7 wman followed Suit midway
through the third as he and Bill
Speilmacher exchanged blows with
Speilmacher picking up a suspen-
sionor his second major of the
game.
This left the Ironmen defense with
its work cut out for it, down fronrsix
defenders to just four, but its
members rose to the occasion and
shut down the Baron offense with
some big help from the ace between
the pipes.
With a scoreless third period, this
set the momentum for overtime. The
first 10 -minute period was scoreless,
meaning an additional 20 -minute
sudden -death r 'od.
Less than tv minutes into the
period, Winghayn's Jason Goodall
found himself in the sin bin on a
questionable holding call and the
Ironmen were down to three on
rriefense, $ut once again, the penalty
kiillers didhl.let- them.'down as they
killed,offwhatseemedmore like five
minutes.'
With 5:03 gone in the period, Joe
Walker was johnny-on-the-spot to
tap in the loose puck in a goal -mouth
scramble to give the Ironmen a
muc:1-deserved and hard-fought
victory.
LOSE GAME ONE
It was a different team that
boarded the bus for Hanover last
Thursday night. The Ironmen
seemed to lack the confidence and
desire they displayed Sunday.
The Barons opened up thbe scoring
on .a power -play marker sit 1251 of
the opening frame with Beitz picking
up his first of three for the night.
The Ironmen retaliated with a
power -play marker of their own at
9:38 of the first off the stick of Jamie
Robinson, aS5isted by Dan Gilchrist
and Scott Hackett.
The Barons went ahead of the
Ironmen with only 2:21 remaining in
the period on a goal by Jeff
Alexander.
The Barons scored first in the
second to take a 3-1 lead before
Murray responded for Wingham
with Priestap and Mark McBride
drawing assists on the gals.
Scott Ralston took advantage of
Bowman's pr ence in the penalty
box to give his tears an insurance
marker at 1148 of the middle frame.
The Barons picked up an addi-
tional power -play marker with 2:28
left in the period as Beitz rounded
out his hat trick.
The Barons, threatened to run
away 'with dig lead as they scored
just 23 seconds into the final period,
but the Ironmen had a scoring
flurry, netting a pair of goals just
seven seconds apart, both on the
powerplay.
Hewitt fired home the first with
Bowman assisting and Priestap
netted the second with Bowman and
Murray assisting.
However, the Barons iced the win
with a final marker at the nine -
minute mark when the Wingham
defense failed to clear the puck. The
final score was 7-4 for the host
Barons.
IRON MARKERS—Ther Ironmen
certainly deserved the big win on
Sunday and it shows that this is
anybody's series. After coming out
flat in the first game, they showed
the Barons they aren't about to lie
down.
With their backs to the wall, the
Ironmen defense turned in a solid
performance , on the blueline.
Hackett and Paul Tolton were thorns
in many Of the Barons' sides as they
killed off penalties with perfection.
Enough can't be said of the per-
formance of "Clemmy" in net as he
turned in the performance of the
year, certainly giving the Barons
nightmares and the fans their
money's worth.
Ironically, it was Walker who
scored the game -winner, as Joe was
forced to leave the game twice
earlier when he suffered Some bone -
crushing checks. Wearing some
lumber on his legs, his dedication
and desire brought him back to
finish the game and his determina-
tion gave him and his team the win.
The Ironmen travel to Hanover
this Thursday, March 9, for an 8:30
p.m. start. If they can keep up the
good work and stick to their w . me,
they are sure to come home winners.
The Barons dare in Wingham for
game four of the best -of -seven series
on Sunday, March 12, at 2 p.m. Come
out and give the Ironmen your
support.
