Adams, who slipped to 20 goals last season with the New Jersey Devils after a 35-goal National Hockey League season, played in the Andy Moog charity tournament during July in Penticton, B.C., where his partners were Quinn, head coach Bob McCammon of the Canucks and Vancouver assistant coach Jack MelIhargey. “I showed up for my practice round and got in nine holes with the Vancouver guys,” Adams said this week in training camp. “Who knows, maybe they liked my golf swing.” The six-foot-three Adams, a native of Nelson, had no inkling a trade was in the works, although he knew the ‘The Canucks, with at all-new front office in place with Quinn and vice-president Brian Burke, plus new head coach in McCammon, were looking for fresh talent to spark a revival on the ice. LATE TRADE When the Devils made it known Adams was available, the Canucks quickly shipped inconsistent centre Patrik Sundstrom to New Jersey in late August for Adams and minor league goaltender Kirk McLean.: “The trade came as quite a shock, a big surprise,” said Adams. “I had no idea the Devils had anything like that in mind.” ‘ Adams created quite a stir two years ago when he had 77 points in his first full NHL season, including 35 goals. But he was removed from the power play last year by coach Doug Carpenter and his production dropped The 24-year-old pivot denies he had a falling out with Carpenter, although there were times when they openly disagreed about the amount of ice time Adams was getting. “Getting this far has been a long road for me,” Adams said, “and I got a little confused at times last year. “But coming to an organization with such an upbeat tempo should be good for me. This camp is well nized, the coaches are strict and everything is on the positive side. I hope to fit in here and score some goals.” EVELOPED LATE Adams is a late-bloomer in the pro game. He played two years of Tier Two junior hockey at Kelowna, B.C., but had to settle for a scholarship at a small (Northern Arizona) when he didn't attract any offers from the bigger schools. -Two years under the patient guidance of coach Jimmy Peters at Flagstaff, Ariz, brought out the best in the 185-pounder. He led the United States colleges in scoring in 1963-84 with 73 points and signed as a free agent with the Devils after rejecting offers from the Edmonton Oilers and the New York Islanders.

College plays host to BCIT team again t JosNewsPhoto by Ron Normon By CasNews Staff The Selkirk Saints soccer team is kicking off its new season this weekend with two games against the British Columbia Institute of Technology. According to Preston Zeeben, athletic coordinator at the college, the club will be playing each of the seven other teams registered in this teams last year in the former Totem Association. Rob Johnson and Blythe Nielson will be coaching the Selkirk team this year. Johnson is new to the physical edueation department of the college. He holds a master’s degree from the University of British Columbia. Nielson, the assistant coach this Saints kick off season and coached competitive soccer for several years. Other colleges competing in this year's season against Selkirk are teams from Trinity Western Uni- versity, Vancouver Community Col- lege, Capilano College, Malispina College, Caribou College and Fraser Valley College. The season playoffs will be held Creston’'s Jensen dislikes No. 2 tag By GRANT KERR Canadian Press DUNCAN, B.C. — Darren Jensen is tired of being No. 2 and trying harder. The 27-year-old goaltender, considered a bright prospect in the Philadelphia organization before the emergence last year of Ron Hextall, wants to establish himself in the National Hockey League this season with the Vancouver Canucks. “I hate that No. 2 tag,” Jensen said this week at training camp. “Nobody likes to sit or play behind someone else.” The Canucks acquired Jensen last month from the Flyers, along with defenceman Darryl Stanley, with net- minder Wendell Young moving to Philadelphia along with a third-round draft choice. . Vancouver is to establish depth behind Richard Brodeur, the 35-year-old veteran who is having a contractual hassle with Canuck management. Jensen, Kirk McLean and Frank Caprice all have ambitions of eventually being No. 1 in Vancouver. “I feel really uncomfortable when I have to sit out,” Jensen said. “I think I can be a No. 1 and I'll never be content to be No. 2.” Jensen has 30 NHL games under his belt, with a winning record (15-10-1) and 3.81 goals-against average. Jensen played 29 NHL games during the 1985-86 season after Flyer netminder Pelle Lindbergh died in an auto accident. But last season, when Jensen-thought he'd at least share the duties with Bob Froese, along came Hextall. “Ron had a great camp and didn't give anybody a chance,” Jensen said. “He just took the job away from everyone else.” Hextall became the NHL's top rookie with a 3.00 average in 66 games, Froese was traded to the New York Rangers, Chico Resch was the little-worked Flyer mekue and Jensen found himself back in the minors. - Jensen played 60 games for the Hershey Bears in the American Hockey League and had a 3.76 average. The trade to Vancouver caught him by surprise. “I thought I would return to Philadelphia this year, especially with Hextall being suspended for the first eight games,” said Jensen. “Now I guess they'll go with mark LaForest, John Kemp or maybe Wendell Young.” Jensen does not regret his three seasons in the Phil- adelphia organization because he had the opportunity to learn from Flyer netminder coach Bernie Parent, who hed mental py and as the keys to big-league goaltending. GETS LESSON This week Jensen got a leason from former Soviet great Viadislav Tretiak, who spent a few days in the Canuck camp as a guest coach as part of an exchange program. “He bad brand new equipment, everything, but he was moving just as fast, even faster, than us, and that’s amazing at 35,” Jensen said. aid. Ha poueely tats Meee. how he trained and-we learned Jensen has been impressed with the Vancouver camp, the first run by former Flyer coach Bob McCammon, the man who signed Jensen to his first pro contract after the Creston native graduated from the University of North Dakota in 1983. McCammon, president-general manager Pat Quinn, vice-president Brian Burke and assistant coach jack Mc- Ilhargey all spent time in the Philadelphia organization. “These guys know what it’s like to win. That's why the Philadelphia Flyers have been winning every year. The Flyer attitude will help this team.” Jensen is watching the developments in the free agency of netminder Andy Moog of the Edmonton Oilers, considering Moog is tagged as another No. 2 goaltender. Moog and Jensen shared the goaltending assignment for a season in junior with the Penticton Vees of the British Columbia Junior Hockey League and have remained close friends. “The best thing Andy could do is leave Edmonton and go to Pittsburgh or another NHL team because Grant Fuhr is going to be No. 1 in Edmonton for a long time,” Jensen added.

Lions meet Bombers VANCOUVER (CP) — The intense rivalry between the Winnipeg Blue Bombers and the British Columbia Lions resumes today at B.C. Place Stadium in the rubber match of the season series between the Canadian Football League titans. “Every time we play Winnipeg it's like a black- and-blue fistfight,” B.C. coach Don Matthews said Saturday. “We've come to expect that against Winnipeg.” The Bombers, shifted to the East when the Montreal Alouettes folded on the eve of the 1987 season, lead their division with an 8-3 record, while the 7-3 Lions are in competition with the Edmonton Eskimos for first place in the Wer Winnipeg won the first meeting of the season against the Lions 30-22 in the Manitoba capital and B.C. evened the series with a last-play, 24-23 decision over the Bombers three weeks ago in Vancouver. ‘The other CFL game today is an eastern match between the Toronto Argonauts and the Hamilton Tiger-Cats in Toronto. The Lions and Bombers have compiled the best defensive records in the CFL this year, B.C. allowing 17.9 points a game and Winnipeg 21.8. The Lions won the last encounter with Winnipeg by putting the clamps on CFL rushing leader Willard Reaves(1,123 yards) of the Bombers. DEFENSIVE PLAN “We think we can stop him again,” Matthews said. “We did it last time, holding him to 13 yards, and we've got a scheme where we think we can keep after him and keep him from being a factor in the game. “After we do that, we have to their derson led off the first inning with a homer and hit a tie-breaking single in the seventh, and Bill Gullickson won his 100th career game Saturday as the New York Yankees beat Toronto 4-2, keeping the Blue Jays down in the American League East. Gullickson and Dave . Righetti combined on a three-hitter to keep Toronto behind division-leading De- troit. with our defensive backs and make (quarterback Tom) Clements hold on to the ball a split second longer so we can get him on the ground.” The Lions lead the CFL in quarterback sacks with 48 and put Clements down seVen times three weeks ago. B.C. plans to go with the same lineup that beat the Ottawa Rough Riders 55-16 last week, with newcomer Byron Williams starting his second game at wide receiver. He'll be matched up against Bomber corner Roy Bennett, who leads the league in interceptions with nine. The Bombers will do some shuffling in their defensive line because of a knee injury to nose tackle Stan Mikowas. Rick Goltz, signed as a free agent after his release by the Saskatchewan Roughriders, is the likely replacement. “The people on our defence recognize all Stan means to us,” said Bomber coach Mike Riley. “It's big shoes to fill.” Winnipeg hopes to get increased production from wide receiver Jeff Boyd, who didn't have a good outing last time against B.C. corner Keith Gooch. “I know I haven't been playing well. I have no excuses,” Boyd said. “We've got to play a good football team so now’s as good a time as any to put some things together.” Clements is the CFL's passer with 223 completions in 386 attempts for 2,991 yards and 22 touch- downs. He's been intercepted 19 times, however, compared with 12 scoring passes and just four interceptions for B.C. passer Roy Dewalt. 8-2, allowed three hits in seven innings and Righetti finished with two innings of perfect relief for his 29th save. Gullickson did not allow a hit after Fred McGriff's leadoff homer in the second and went on to retire 17 straight batters. HOCKEY six innings by Mike Flanagan, went ahead in the seventh when Mike Pag- Nunez with an RBI single, and Don Mattingly’s groundout scored Mese ham. New York made it 2-2 in the sixth on a walk to Willie Randolph, Dave Winfield’s single and an RBI forceout by Gary Ward, who barely beat the relay at first base after a bobble by shortstop Tony Fernandez. Flanagan, 5-7, took his first loss since joining the Blue Jays on Aug. 31. He had won twice for Toronto and ASSAULT CHARGES DROPPED By The Canadian Press The Crown has decided not to pro- ceed with assault charges against former juvenile hockey coach Jay Hunter. Hunter, already handed a lifetime suspension by the B.C. Amateur Hockey Association, was charged as a result of a stick-swinging incident in a December 1985 exhibition game in Nakusp. Kelowna player David Glessman was charged with assault causing bodily harm while referee Lawrence Grenier of Nakusp was charged with assault. Nelson Crown prosecutor Dana Urban said Friday the charge against Hunter has been stayed. Glessman and Grenier received conditional discharges when they ap peared in court earlier. “The Crown didn’t feel there was any social utility in continuing with the (Hunter) prosecution,” said Urban. Martini forces overtime By The Canadian Press Former Castlegar Rebel Darcy — scored with less than five remaining to lift Vernon Rabire ints 6-0 tie with the Pendicten Knights Friday night. But the tie was short-lived as Dowell Frantz scored just one minute and 41 seconds into sudden-death overtime to give the Knights a 6-5 victory in one of three B.C. Junior Sockeyes downed the Chilliwack Eag- les 86 and the Nanaimo Clippers doubled the Merritt Centennials 10-5. In Penticton, the teams were tied 2-2at the end of the first period and 4-4 at the end of the second. Goalies Jamie Loewen of Pentic- ton and Mark Taylor of Vernon each made 46 saves.
