" Two more Red Wing goals followed to give them a one-goal edge. which was knocked out by Kirkland’s smart playing pivot, Watson. who converted dual assists into a light bunker. Kirkland edged away on two markers in the first six minutes of play in the second period to, start a lead again and Red .Wings, failed at a comeback until the ten-minute mark of the frame when Houston, Blair and Adamo com- bined for the first cut into the visitors’ lead. McLellan and Houston teamed no for the opener to give Red Wings a slight edge, only to have Kirkland Lake come back for tWo goals running in close succession at the halfway mark. Mc- lellen came back shortly afterward to bag his second tally for the first period and tie the game. McLellan. Houston and St. Pierre turned in stellar performances for the locals with B.
