A-,, Bruins dump Sarnia 5-2 in OMHA Pup " - Wnorloo Chronicle, WMv, March to, 1979 By Rick Campbell Chromite Sta” Writer First there was just idle, chatter. But it grew to rhythmic chanting.

But according to Doucet- Ie, the credit should go to the three men behind the bench for Bruins success It was quite comical to see Doucette, coach of the 1977-78 OMHA juvenile champions, pace like an ex- pectant father while watch- ing the game. Because of business commitments, he stepped down from his coaches role this year, but fortunately now has more time to watch his son Rod toil on defence for Bruins. "We should have won down there (Sarnia) about 6. 2 but we didn't play well at all here last game," said Bruin parent Joe Doucette before Saturday's contest. In earlier games of the minor peewee series Bruins won 5-4 in Sarnia but lost 5-2 on home ice.

"He and Jack (Leslie) and Tom (Murphy) have the guys practising what no other team would attempt. It's really a well- balanced unit." That fact was evident in Saturday's game as five dif- story this year. It's a race to the puck between Semis goalie Brad Allen and Bauer Bruins Chris Paranyi m during first period of Saturday's game. Bruins won the game 6-2 and the series 2-1. That lead stood up in the third as both teams missed on excellent scoring chan- ces. Scott Smith of Bruins iced the win with an empty net goal in the last second of This time Bruins struck in the last minute as Brett Johnston wristed a high shot past Sarnia netminder Brad Allen.
