The Castlegar Sun

Close only counts in horseshoes, not hockey

With a New Year3 resolution
to play solid, winning hockey, the
Castlegar Rebels came up one
goal’short in their first game of
the New Year.

The final score in Saturday's
game was 7-6, but unfortunately
for the Rebels, the scoreboard
lights favored the visitors from
Spokane. Even though they did
not come out on top as far as
scoring the goals, the team played

a solid game according to Co.
coach Gary Sauer

“There was not any time when
the guys eased up, everyone
played well.”

One of the main things the
coaches have been trying to make.
more consistent is how the team
performs on the powerplay.

“Our powerplay worked well,
Gord Walker has really beens
working on that’aspect of the
game during practice, unfortu
nately our penalty killing was not
as good,” Sauer said

“They were capitalizing on
their opportunities and we missed
some chances,” Sauer said.

“The fact that we had only 13
players dressed for the game, it
showed on the scoreboard,” Sauer
said.

Mark Graff opened up the scoring,
for the Rebels, with his first goal of the
new year, 2:14 into the first

Spokane scored the next two, tak-

ing over the lead, but not for long,
Jesse Oldham scored one for
the Rebels. Kevin Leiman helped
out by scoring two powerplay
goals just over 1:30 apart.
Spokane slid one more past the
Rebels goalie, John Ray, to round
out the scoring in the first period.
The Rebels went into the
dressing room at the end of the
first period with a slight 4-3 lead.
They did not waste much time
to extend their lead by one when
Corey Flodell scored a power-
play goal, the third in a row,
4:55 into the second frame
From there the second period
belonged to the Spokane Braves,
they rallied the troops for four
straight goals, all of which were
scored on the powerplay. Three of
Spokane's goals came in less than
one minute of the second period.

After finding themselves down at
the end of the first, Spokane's nin
enabled them to take over the
lead 7-5.

In no way did the Rebels con
sider themselves out of the game
There was still one full period lef
to play. Jesse Oldham scored his
second of the game and cut
Spokane’s lead down to one. His
goal came with orily 1:25 left to
play in the game, and in the time
remaining, the Rebels could not
get that last marker to even things
up and force an overtime period.

“It's too bad we lost the first
game of the year. We wanted to
start the New Year off with a
win,” Sauer said

With so few players dressed
for.the. game, everyone who was
there put out a strong effort and
lots of hard work, Sauer said

“Everyone played well, we went
with what we had. We got back to
our disciplined style of play, we
played well enough to win.”

The toughest part of the season
is still ahead for the Rebels. They
have seven road games in January
and only three games at home

“Hopefully the last part of the
Season will be as successful as the

2 on the road
auer said

Although the Rebels did not
win the game, according to
Sauer, the fans won.

“It was a good game, there
were some good hits, fast skating
It was a good game to watch.”

The Rebels were matched up
against Grand Forks last night
The results of the game were not
known af press time

Their next action will be a threc
game East Kootenay road trip this
weekend. The first game, Friday
night in Columbia Valley and two
games in Golden.
