firm on nofighting policy the emphasis will be on peacekeep ing playmaking and home grown talent as the stouffville juvenile clippers set to defend their ontario minor hockey association and ontario hockey federation aaa crowns with only six returnees in the fold the clippers will be sporting a new look as they take to the rec centre ice surface for sunday evening home games but while most spots on the roster will be filled by newcomers the players will be no strangers to those who have been following the local rep hockey scene the past few years were just going with stouffville kids said dave boyd the 12year veter an stouffville rep hockey coach who is returning after a oneyear sabbatical to take over from lee burton as the teams head coach boyd said he worked the phones upon taking the coaching position in an attempt to convince most of the best 19 to 21 year olds in the stouffville area to jointheteam the result was an 11player harvest of clippers players from years gone by some of them played house league last season or werent even playing boyd said but they came running back returning from last years team are defencemen mark meyers and kyle harrison goalkeeper carmen auciello and forwarovbrett boyd tyler markle and andrew hutchison bruce stapley new recruits include forward kevin hackert who was with the oxbridge bruins last season and dan tardella who sat the past few years out while helping coach the midget clippers ian mcdougall tyler armstrong and chad kerswill all played with the 199899 midget clippers boyds defence corps is almost iden tical to the one he had when he coached the 199798 midget clippers all the way to the omha finals harrison meyers chris howland kerswill and mcdougall all played defence on that team im happy with that boyd said boyd plans to take a tough stand against fighting and the taking of unnecessary penalties by bis team it was this same philosophy that caught the attention of the minor hockey worid when employed by bis omha finalists midget clippers in 199798 its something ive always preached to my players no fighting boyd said i hate it as far as im concerned losers fight in hockey while winners play the game and exhibit their skills ironically it was a brawl that broke out near the end of the 199798 midget clippers omha semifinal series- clinching victory that contributed to their defeat in the ontario finals three clippers players were sus pended for their part in the rumble which boyd claimed was precipitated by the oppositions frustration with losing the series it was ugly and it cost us the cham pionship boyd feels its no coincidence that european hockey players are taking over from canadians as the premier players in professional hockey as the canadian game continues to cling to the don cherry knock em down drag em out approach to the game i watch don cherry and i just laugh boyd said who is hopeful the omha will get serious about putting a stop to fighting but boyd admits his pacifist thrust can be a lonely crusade i brought it up to the instructor at a coaching clinic last weekend and he just looked at me funny but i just said thats the way lam boyd realizes there are times when fights are inevitable especially with players in their teens and early 20s theres going to be some fights but if we can keep it down to a minimum fll behappy
