E. gs began the regular season last week as defending Huron County high school &ample and foramately for were able to live up to their The team celebrated victories in two contests and seems well on its way to repeating the title. Tbeir first win was a home -open- ing 3-2 decision over last years arch -rival, thelCinton Redmen, on TuesdaY• days later, the Mus- tangs again cli saw action, this time in against the newly -formed Vilcings and skated away with an impressive 10-0 win. Tuesdays contest saw Madill come out very sluggishly against the new -look Redmen, a much smaller, but much quicker team that last year's. The Mustangs were fortunate to be down by a single goal „after one period and it was probably the Redmen's undoing that they didn't jump all over Madill when thev had the chance. For the retaining two periods, it was very much a delve with Madill finally eking out the victory on a. last-minute goal by Clans Stevenson. He combined on a line with Justin Murray and Jaret Henhoeffer to produce all of the Mustang's offenoe, with Stevenson picking up two goals and an assist, Murray, a goal and an assist and Henhoeffer, two assists. The prettiest goal of the game was Madill's first and came late in the second period. Defenceman Brent Kavanagh corralled the puck at centre ice just es Stevenson stepped out of the penalty box after serving a two -minute penalty, He raced into the Clinton zone with Kavanagh to make it a two - on -one and the big defenceman found him in the slot with a pin- point pass from the corner which Stevenson calmly Ctui- toRichard Lyndon score. Lyndon was again strong in the Clinton net, making 21 saves, while Paul Helm faced 23 shots in up the win for Madill pickinf Last Friday's game against , ht , Shoppers' Atoms come close at Howick tourney cVie gs now that he's tie his play- ers belieVersiehepeSwall mea' 's philosoplry is that good happen when you throw the puck toward the net.

Stevenson had another big day for the Mustangs notching a pair of goals and three points for a total of six yuan in the two games hes sa played year.,- Jason Bloemberg and Dan Bow- man each also, had three-point games, including a goal apiece, but the number-oiie Mustang on this day was Murray. Murray fashioned a hat trick to go with two assists and was around the Viking net all day. Other scorers for Madill included Jonathon Lane on the on a nniice deflection wer ld WhitfiWheeler The Wingham Shoppers' Drug Mart Atoms participated in the Howick Atom Tournament last weekend and came up against Har- riston in the first game. Harristori came out on top with a 2-1 victory, but it was exciting end-to-end action. Harriston opened the scoring at 13:45 of the first period, but Wing - ham seemed to have the edge of play. There was no scoring in the second, but again, Wingham seemed to be out -playing Harris - ton, yet not getting any breaks. In the third frame, Wingham came out wanting a goal badly and kept the puck in the opposition's end, firing shot after shot, but came up empty. At the 6:40 mark, Harris - ton got an unassisted goal to go up by two with Wingham applying all sorts of pressure. Finally, with only 38 seconds left in the match, Wingham's Missy Bie- man raced down the right wing and fired a low, hard shot past Har- riston's awesome goaltender. With a few breaks, the team would have come out of this one on the winning end of the score. On Sunday, the Shoppers' Atoms continued tournament play, coming up against Belgrave and Listowel In the first period of the game against Belgrave, Wingham got off to a slow start with Belgrave scor- ing in the opening minute. They added two more goals in the first with Wingham coming close on several occasions. In the second period, only one goal was scored, again by Belgrave. However, if Wingham could have gotten some breaks, the score would not have been 4-0. Arena News Upcoming events this week at the Lockridge Memorial Arena include.

The Wingham Atom Silver Stick Tournament will be held Dec. 12, 14, 15, I6and 17. The third period was scoreless with everyone helping to make this an exciting game right down to the last second. Everyone played well, but just could not put the puck in the net. About one hour later, after enjoy- ing a feed of hotdogs and desserts, the team again stepped on the ice, this time to face a squad from Lis- towel. Once more the opposition opened the scoring in the first peri- od and led 1-0 going into the sec- ond. This game was full of action and at the 10:03 mark, Listowel added another goal. With just 28 seconds left in the period, Wing - ham got a really nice goal from that ail -over -the -ice man Jason Curtis. This really made it interesting starting the third period with Lis- towel leading 2-1. The locals put on a great deal of pressure, but could not finish off the plays with a goal Listowel added two mere to make the final score 4-1. With lots of chances from everyone and great goaltending from Mike King, the team made this an exciting week- end of hockey. Hats off to the How - ick people, who put on and ran an excellent tournament. Wingham travels to Beltway for a league game Thursday night and hopefully the big guns will come out firing some goals.
