This one had a little bit of everything — a shaky and discou- raging opening frame, a solid sec- ond period, and a rousing come- back in the third. Wingham was led by two -goal performances from Jeff King and Josh Johnston, with Kevin Love, Travis Baier,; and Corey Moran all having multi -point games to add to the offence. The shaky start came just past the first minute of the game, when Blyth racked up their first goal. h started out as a pass to the point by a Wingham player deep in the Blyth end, but ended up going the length of the ice and crossing the Wingham goalline. Blyth connect- ed for three more before King fi- nally put Wingham on the board. King's goal was one of his 'river- boat • gambler' moves in off the point, where he finished off a play around the Blyth net, started by Baier and Love. Joel Pegg's point shot about five minutes into the second found the twine behind the Blyth goalie, making it 4-2 for Blyth. Moran's short handed solo effort pulled Wingham to within one later in the second. But Blyth struck for two more of their own before the peri- od ended to take. a 6-3 advantage into the third period. Johnston connected for his first of two. on the night on a power I W a,ks e 1I,I1 1 Wingham Hawks and Honey - wood played to a 2-2 draw in WOAA Senior Women's Hockey League play on Friday.

But a power play chance, cashed in by Baier, assisted by King and Moran, again made it a one -goal game. It stayed that way into the final two minmutes when King sent Johnston in on a two - on -one. Johnston fired a hard one from the top of the faceoff circle. The Blyth netminder got a piece of it with his trapper, but not enough, and the shot rocketed into the top of the net for the tying goal. The tie almost made up for the Lions Midgets earlier 6-3 loss to Blyth in a game played in Wing - ham in early December. The Midgets open , their first round of playoffs in Durham on Thursday.
