front of the net arte taking
passes from linemates Stewart

and Brant Wassick. After that:

it was all Trail, as they applied
“pressure and bottled up the
Saints in their own end for the
majority of the first two
periods,

The Trail squad was all
over: the Saints, outshooting
Selkirk 21-5 in the first period
and 163 in the second, but
thanks to an excellent perfor-
mance by. Dave Turik the score
was only 1-1 at the end of the
first period.

Russ LaFreniere and Ken Uze-
lac found, to their surprise, that
they were the only two skaters
in front of the Saints’ goal. The
two passed the puck back and

forth a couple of times before -

Uzelac had the puck with a
wide open net in front of him.
But Turik somehow managed to
slide ‘across. the crease - and
block the shot.

‘With Turik making the big
saves and keeping the Saints in
the game, the Selkirk forwards
made the most of their scoring
chances. At 17:67 Dan Obedkoff.
and Joe Kambick were sent on

Ken Uzel d the only
goal ‘for the Intermediates in
the period as his shot from the
point eluded Turik at °16:24.,

The goal came on the power-
play as Eck Trask of the Saints
was off for holding. It was one
of two power-play goals Trail
scored during the game.

‘Trail then scored two goals
to even the score—Worley at

14:43, and Basso at 16:27 on the .

power-play evened the score.

Twenty-three seconds la-
ter, Stewart put the Saints
ahead for good with his second
goal of the night and ninth of.
the season, as he scored with
help from Wishloff and Carlson.
‘Trail once again applied pres-
sure to the Saints, hemming
them in their own end: for
almost two minutes.’

With the Trail net empty,
in favor of a sixth attacker,
John Wishloff carommed the
puck off the boards and darted

Saint blueline. As the puck was

Wishloff caught up with it and
