st weekender january 29 1994 pit oy s s bruins rally to get even with merchants fifty seven penalty calls and six goals those were the statistical highlights as the uxbridge bruins rallied for two goals in the final three minutes to forge a 33 tie with the little britain merchants in a cen tral ontario junior g hockey league game played in the scugog town on wednesday but while the penalty count would suggest the game was played with tanks and b52 bombers bruins head coach mike morrison said it was not really that violent a con test it sounds worse than it really was said morrison who conceded there was even a minor skirmish dur ing the jumor hockey club box 1708 uxoftloce ontario ioc tko pregame warmup the league was anticipat ing problems after what hap pened at the allstar game and they sent a referee dave wedlake who usuaully does ohl games he told us at the start he wouldnt be taking any chances and that hed be clamping down morrison was referring to an incident that erupted at the jan 8 central league allstar game when the bru ins steve brown and all- stars goalkeeper don flem ing who plays for the mer chants became involved in an incident which was a carry over from a game played between the bruins and merchants the night before brown and fleming were handed fourgame suspen sions which concluded after wednesdays match wedlake was true to his word calling his first infrac tion just 34 seconds into the game he was sending them off two by two to the penalty box and to the dressing rooms said morrison he was call ing them on both teams at the end we only had enough plays for two lines the bruins don gillies stands to pick up a suspen sion of at least four games after being tagged for his third instigator offence of the season in the first period of wednesdays contest other suspensions could be forthcoming hinted morri son as could be expected the endless penalty parade turned the game into some thing resembling a rush hour traffic jam but the coach was happy to see his team pick up its first point since jan 7 when they dumped the merchants 51 in uxbridge i was pleased with the effort said morrison whose lineup was missing six regu lars including brown and the leagues fourthleading point getter jason underwood i felt we outplayed them and outchanced them but when you dont have your goal scorers in the lineup its hard to score goals the bruins got a goal from ryan burkholder to enable them to go into the second period with a 11 tie trailing 31 late in the third andre marois brought the uxbridge squad to within a goal with two minutes and 44 seconds left to play frank kavanaugh got the tying marker from marois and mike norris with just four seconds on the clock and bruins goalie jeff reid on the bench the bruins were to have brown the leagues second- leading scorer back in the lineup for fridays final game of the regular season against the firstplace bowmanville eagles morrison said he hoped having brown back for the playoffs would help turn things around for the bruins who have won just two of their last 10 games i just hope we can flip the switch and get it going again said morrison we had to play our last four games without brown and we missed him steve is our main cog but we need more than just steve brown we need to have undy underwood and brandon pridham come to the fore front and be leaders then
