The Castlegar Rebels took
two losses in the best of five
Western division finals.

Playing’ in Rossland on
Friday, Trail eventually won
the match 5-4 in overtime, but

; the outcome was in doubt until
the very end.

The Jr. Smokies had to-

overcome a 3-0 first-period
deficit to pull out the win. Both
clubs were evenly matched and
went all-out in a hard-hitting,
fast-moving game that had
approximately 900 fans holding
on to their seats,

The Rebels took charge
early in the game, scoring two
power-play goals as well as one
short-handed marker to jump

: toa 3.0 lead after 20 minutes.

Steve Bozek opened the

‘ scoring at 4:33 when he de-

‘ flected Brune Tassone's slap-

“shot from the point past a
sercened Steve Handley. Brian
Verigin blasted a slapshot into
the net just 32 seconds later,
with Bozek drawing the assist.
Both of those markers were
power-play efforts,

Castlegar's third goal of
the period came at 15:50 as
Trail had the man advantage.
The Rebels displayed some

fierce forechecking, which paid
off when Pace stole the puck
and beat Handley cleanly on the
breakaway.

It looked like a nearly
impossible task for the Jr.
Smokies to get back into con-
tention, but they didn't let up
for one minute and scored three
unanswered goals in the second
frame to knot the count.

It was but a question of
time as to when Trail would hit
the scoreboard and they ap-
plied tremendous pressure
early in the period.

Gary Baines finally broke
the ice at 5:35 when he deflect-
ed a shot by Terry ‘Thomas past
Chris Vlanich and John Mondin
pulled the Jr. Smokies to within
one goal just 58 seconds later
with a shot directly from a
face-off.

Excellent second effort on _

the part of Thomas was respon-
sible for the tying marker. With
Trail players swarming around
the Rebels’ net, Thomas cleared
the puck to Bob Lunde waiting
at the blue line. The pass came
as Thomas was falling lo the
ice, but it reached Lunde, who
fired it into the net to even the
score at 3-3,

Barry Zanier put the Jr.
Smokies into the lead at 4:01 of
the third period when he stole
the puck-while his team was
short-handed, raced down the
ice alone and beat Vianich with
his shot.

The lead was short-lived,
however, as the Rebels replied

one minute and 31 seconds later
on a defensive Inpse by the
Smokies. Dave Kirby made his

+ way through the entire Trail
defence without being stopped”

to even the count once more.
‘The remainder of the final
period saw both goaltenders
put to the test more (han ence,
but each rose to the occasion.
The action was fast-paced and
moved from one end to the
other, but neither team was
able to break the deadlock,
sending the game into over-
time. a
Ken Mailey finally put an
end to the exciting battle when
he found the mark at 4:26-of the
overtime period. Baines and
Rick Demore drew assists on
the play.
Handley handled 27 shots
in the Trail nets, while Vianich

blocked 26. Trail sat out 11 of 20 _-
