Hot scorers win game
for Brussels Novices
On the move
A Howick PeeWee puts on the steam as Seaforth's Number 18 moves in on the puck, at the
blueline in this game of the Blyth Legion tournament on Saturday morning. Winners of the
tournament were Kincardine for the "A" and Ripley for the "B".
Brussels Atoms win twice
Thanks to great goaltending by
Stephen Oldfield and an all-round
team effort, the Brussels WOAA
Atoms houseleague team skated
away with two wins and a tie this
weekend at a Howick tournament.
In their first game on Friday
night, they came up against a close
ly matched Wingham team. The
opposition struck early with a goal
in the first period, but the Brussels
team held them back from scoring
more. A second period goal by
Darrell Dalton, assisted by Joel
Kellington, tied things up in the
second where it stayed for the
remainder of the game.
The second game for Brussels
was at 8 a.m., Sunday. Despite the
early morning wake-up the team
was at the ready scoring a total of
four to Minto's two. Trevor Wilson
copped a hat trick in this game,
scoring two in the second and one
in the third.
Minto started things off in the
first, but with 40 seconds remaining
in the period, Kellington delivered
unassisted.
The Brussels team never gave up
a goal in the second, but added the
two by Wilson, the second of
which was assisted by Ryan Smith.
Minto narrowed the edge in the
third then Wilson charged on for
his second unassisted goal to give
Brussels a two-point win.
At 10 a.m., Brussels faced off
against Walkerton, whom they also
defeated 4-2.
Joshua Gropp, off a play by Mark
Stevens and Jason Armstrong,
drove home the first goal of the
game giving Brussels an early lead,
only to have Walkerton tie things
up at 2:57 in the first.
Wilson, assisted by Kellington
put Brussels once again in the lead
halfway through the second. Then
Matthew McLellan and Tyler
Bragg combined to set up Sam
Zahnd, who nudged in an insurance
goal. Just one minute later Gropp,
off a play by Stevens set up Wilson
who drove in the fourth goal of the
game.
Walkerton kept the Brussels'
team from scoring any in the third
plus added another of their own,
but it wasn't enough to close the
gap-
The Brussels Novices played
host to Elma-Logan on Saturday,
Dec. 5 in WOAA hockey action.
The Brussels team was hot scor
ing eight goals to Elma-Logan's
three.
Brian Oldfield got things going
when Matthew Clarkson made a
play to Stephen Todd, who in turn,
set up Oldfield. Chris Blake score
the last goal of the first period
assisted by McCallum.

Blyth Bantams win 7-1
By Rusty Blades
The Blyth Bantams played a
single league game last week as
they travelled to Zurich on Nov. 30
and clobbered the home team 7-1.
Brian McNichol opened the
scoring for Blyth four minutes into
the game on a powerplay by taking
a centering pass from Ryan
Chamney and tucking the puck
upstairs over the fallen Zurich
netminder. Jason Rutledge put
Blyth up by two, with four minutes
remaining in the first as he one-
timed a drop pass from Brian
McNichol.
Blyth took control of the game in
the second by scoring three
unanswered goals for a 5-0 lead.
Brian McNichol started the second
period explosion with a breakaway
goal after some clearing passes
from Christopher Howson and
Jonathan Collins.
Ryan Chamney then went to
work as he finished off a Henry
Bos rush with his first goal of the
game. Before the period ended,
Chamney scored his second of the
game as he slid the puck along the
ice between the goalie's legs to
finish off his breakaway. Chamney
continued his scoring binge in the
third as he scored Blyth's final two
goals. A three-way passing play
from Christopher Howson and
Jason Rutledge set up Chamney's
fourth goal of the game with yet
another nice pass.
If there was ever a game in which
“The Leekster” deserved a shut
out, it was this one as he played a
crafty game between the pipes for
Blyth. Unfortunately he was denied
the honour with one and a half
minutes remaining as Zurich broke
the goose egg with a power play
goal.
Blyth increased their season
record to 14-1 with this 7-1 road
victory.
