Pee Wee Reps dump Nelson

Castlegar Pee Wee Reps breezed to a 6-1 victory over Nelson in a recent league game. Stephen Junker streaked right down the cen tre for Castlegar’s first mark- er, assisted by Kevan Rilcof and Lonnie Schmidt.

Castlegar outshot Nelson on goal 24-7 in the first period. Going into the second frame on a 1-0 lead, David Josephson sparked a four goal outburst with two mark- ers, assisted by Schmidt and Junker. David Vecchio fired one down the slot on a pass from Jeff Barr, and Junker capped second period action assisted by Kevan Rilcof and Schmidt who picked up four assists in the game.

Going into the third period Nelson remained scoreless. Danny Stelk whipped the puck from the circle on a re- bound with Carlson and Strobel picking up the as sists.

Barry Grunerud strong in goal, almost had a shutout when Nelson scored with 1:32 remaining in the game.

When Park, 37, replaced Harry Neale on Dec. 30, he took over a club that was 823-4 and had lost 10 of its last 11 games. Under Park, the Red Wings are 3-13-1.

“I think four or five teams are better than we are,” Park said. “But, I think we're as good as the other 16.

“We have youth, we have

good legs. We just haven't been playing together.” Assistant coach Dan Beli sle will be behind the bench during games until Feb. 16 while Park serves a six- game suspension for sending his players over the boards, sparking a bench-clearing brawl Jan. 13 in Toronto. Park took the blame for the rumble in the Toronto, but the Red Wings have logged 1,689 penalty min utes, and average of 32.5 a game, highest in the NHL. “There's no plan for that, it's a game-by-game thing,” Park insists. “I want my guys to play the body. I do not ever tell my guys to go out

and fight, to get a certain guy.”

Players short on talent frequently find themselves having to hold or trip when faster, more gifted players blast past them and head toward defenceless goaltend- er. But teams don't lead the NHL in penalty minutes by getting a lot of minors; they do it, as the Red Wings have, by accumulating major pen- alties.

Rookie Joe Kocur already has spent 244 minutes in the penalty box. Of those, Kocur has been called for 28 majors — all but one for fighting. He has picked up one 10-minute misconduct and four game misconducts}
