The five-minute power play
was just what Beaver Valley
needed as they scored twice to tie
the game. Then, just as Nisse left
the box, the Nite Hawks pulled
ahead 5-4 with just two minutes
to go.

The penalty to Nisse effective
ly killed the Rebels, but what
made Walker so upset wasn't
anything Postnikoff called.

“We had two breakaways and
they hauled us down both times,”
Walker said. “They didn’t even
get over the blueline and they
were tripped.”

He said both Nino DaCosta
and Mike Hunter had clear paths
to Nite Hawk goalie Shane Pen-
noyer when they were pulled
down.

“I thought for sure we'd get a
penalty shot but [Postnikoff]
didn’t even call a penalty,” Walk-
er said. “The ref did every thing
in his power to give them that
game.”

The Rebels will not protest the

ment on the calls, saying it isn’t
necessary for him to defend his
judgement

Referees for the KIJHL are
trained by the British Columbia
Amateur Hockey Association.

“They're all tested,” said
league president Bronco Horvath,
of the officials who are paid a fee
for each game they call. “They
take a lot of static for what
they're paid.”

Horvath said the league has no
real jurisdiction over officials
because they’re supplied by the
BCAHA.

The local director of officiating
is David Murray from Trail. he
said he stands by his ref.

“It's safe to say [Postnikoff]
has been evaluated in the last 30
days and that bears him out as a
good referee,” Murray said. “Our
referees are trained. They have to
take some heat but officiating
takes a feel for the game. It's a
judgement.”

Murray said he understands
how coaches can get caught up in
the heat of a game. But he said it
wouldn't be correct for Walker to
blame his club’s loss on the offi-
cial

“You never lose a hockey
game because of the ref,” Murray
said. “They had 60 minutes to
win the game for themselves.”

Walker and his troops play

Skilips by Terry Miller

It's been said a thousand times and more

S You've got to take the good days with the
bad.

For the past couple of wecks I've been
taking the bad Ones—in a skiing kind of way.
Nothing serious mind you, and I'm trying my best
to steer clear of out-and-out whining, it's just that
for quite a few days now I haven't quite felt right
on my skis. On the tails of my skis. Standing on
my uphill ski. Heading for the timber and generally
feeling like! I've had a meltdown in the telephone
my head and feet

Ever felt that way? Like you've just taken a
giant step backwards in your quest for the perfect

Well, it happens to everybody, at least that is
what I have been telling myself. And to be fair, it
probably does. But these moments of regression do
raise some interesting possibilities just the same.

When you are having a bad day on your skis,
there a couple of things you can do, and the first
tactic to try is what I call skiing by pure theory.
This is how a pilot with his instrument rating
would land a plane in the fog.

We know by all that is right that skis have been
designed as a stable and predictable tool for turning
in the snow given the right input as applied by a
skier. Things like standing balanced over the center
of the ski, weight on the downhill ski, and steering
that ski with the foot. Hands in front. We know
these things work. Why these things seem to work
one day and not the next is truly a mystery. Con-
versely, we know that not doing these things will tion.
result in a drop in performance at the very least.

So the answer is
to ski by rote, or
pure theory.
Remember that
what has worked
for you in the past
should work
again. Mind over
mush and so on.

The other tactic,
which Can be
infinitely more
rewarding, is the
universal practice
of dropping five
and punting. Of
simply letting go
and letting that
bad day have its way with you. These are the glori-
ous days when you discover that by beginning a
gliding traverse from the top of Granite, it is possi-
ble to go around the Powder Fields, across the lift
line and into the Slides and all the way to Cabin
Flats without making a single turn. It takes the bet-
ter part of an hour. The trees take on a different
personality when you aren’t skiing at all. You see
things you would never see when you are working
on your powder turns, or steering with your feet.
You become an explorer, not a skier at all.

The way the snow hangs in the branches.

There are, of course, hundreds of variations on
this theme, but these are better left to the imagina-

So have a bad day.

One step behind is where the Castlegar Rebels were all night against the Nelson
Maple Leafs in Saturday night's 7-0 loss. Nelson's Brent Postlethwaite brushes off the
stick of Castlegar’s Kevin Dewar.

One solution, which probably
won't be tried this year, is to
herd the boom cars into a desig-

demo their systems after the
