As we enter the second half
of the Minor Hockey season, we
look back at a very full and re-
warding three months. I speak
for many members when I say thank
you to Allan Johnston, President,
for all the time he has spent ar-
ranging games for our players.
Also thanks to Watson Lake Minor
Hockey for putting much etfort
into meeting our teams in Cassiar
and having our Novice team there.

The Atom division has al-
ready travelled to a santioned
tournament in Kitimat. AS a

result of all their preparation,
they played very well and placed
in the Semi-finals.
Congratulations to all play-
ers and their coaches. Also
special congratulations to goalie
Lino Osorio, as two of the games
played were shut-outs!! The re-

sults of these games were as

One on one Blake Martin,
with steady determination, scored
his goal on a penalty shot! Sud-

den death overtime resulted, but
to no avail. The Bravos came
through winning 4 - 3.

An unfortunate accident oc-

cured in the third period of this
playoff game. One of Cassiar's
players, Ricky Howard, collided
with a player from the opposing
team. Consequently, this clash
of bodies sent Ricky to the ice.
The resuit was injuries to a
cartlidge in his neck. He was
forced to stay in the Kitimat
Hospital and was unable to return
home with the rest of the team.
No permanent damage was incurred
by this accident.

Safe Hockey

Minor Hockey has received a
Mike Bossy video tape on. safety
in hockey. This is a must for
all players, parents and coaches
to view. At this time it’ can be
borrowed from Allan Johnston at
778-7453. Take the time to watch
this important video.

We also have copies of
flexiblity, strengthening and
general conditioning exercises.
If you were not at the general
meeting, phone Allan and arrange
to pick up your copy. Coming in
contact with another player on
the ice can cause injuries when
you don't know how to receive.
These exercises along with the
video will show our players how.

Rules and Regulations

Also copies of rules and
regulations of Cassiar Minor
Hockey, stressing conduct, are
available. Every parent and
coach should have one.

Bottle Drive
We will be having a bottle

drive on January 6, 1990. It is
very important all players meet
at the Ralf Voss Centre (Arts and
Crafts building) at 10:00 a.m. on
this date. Parents with vehicles
are encouraged to help with this
important fund raiser. The more
people that help, the faster it's
done! Hope to see you there.

Novice Hockey

On December 3rd the novice
team travelled to Watson Lake _ to
play two games against the Watson
Lake novice team... =A good turnout
for both players and parents en-
joyed a very succesful trip. Un-
fortunatly we have no ‘statistics >
since Watson Lake did not have: a

time keeper other than the three
ininute buzzer person. Final
scores for these games are as
HOMMOWS 1S ean Gl io caw | Oued Ore
the Cassiar team. Cassiar hust-
ler of the game awards went to
Nathen Cross and Jamie Wilson.
Goaltender Cody Evans did a fine
job and with the help of his .
teammates picked up a shutout in jf
the second game. All players
performed very well and showed

some of the skills that they have

been working on in practice.
Coaches’ Bob Wilson and Mike
Landucci should be congratulated
on a job well done. As Mike

Landucci was away with the Atoms
at Kitimat at the time of these
novice games, many thanks to P.J.

Connelly for assisting Bob Wilson

as coach in Watson Lake.

Not The First

My smile is not the first
to have withered and died,
My ears are not the first
to have been deaf to the lies.

My eyes are not the first
to have cried those painful
tears,

My heart is not the first .

to have been broken through the
years.

My emotions are not the first

to have been cut like a knife,

My daydreams are not the first.
to have died before coming to
life.

By Vicki-Lynn Molloy
