McClelland The Port Perry MoJacks played three periods of solid defensive hockey, stayed out of the penalty box, and easily whipped the Lindsay Musk-' ies 6-1 in the deciding game of the best of five quarter finals Sunday night. In front of 800 fans at the Scugog Arena, the MoJacks turned in their best perfor- mance of the season, and will now go head-to-head with the powerful Bowmanville Eagles in the best of five semi finals. : The decisive victory Sunday night for the Mo- Jacks over the surprising Muskies came just two days after the Lindsay squad had forced a fifth and deciding game, romping over Port Perry by a 12-4 count Friday night in Lindsay. MoJacks rebounded from that humiliation by tighten- ing the defensive reins, clearing the way in front of goalie Ray Gibson, and " making the most of their scoring chances. After the game Sunday night coach Doug Scott had high words of praise for his blue-line corps who not only bottled the Muskies up, but moved the puck sharply out of the Port Perry zone to the MoJacks forwards. : In the nets for Port Perry, Ray Gibson turned in a solid performance, and made several key saves, especially in the first period when the game was still close. The: only goal to beat him came midway through the second when Dave Meehan tucked a loose puck into the short side. Gibson, who has taken over the starting position in the nets because of an injury to Charlie Durward, looked very sharp with his stand- up style. When the Muskies did manage to muster an offensive flurry, he stood his ground and refused to panic. He got a lot of help from his team-mates who blocked and deflected shots all evening. Bill Owen played a menac- ing game along the blue line, threw himself in front of several Lindsay shots, and generally made his presence felt every time he was one the ice. Defenseman Colin Wackett, randy Crawford and Steve Jones also played effective hockey, taking the man rather than the puck and setting up the forwards for fast breaks out of the Port Perry end of the rink.

Muskies led 4-0 after the first and 7-3 after forty minutes. The beginning of the end for MoJacks came late in the first when Bill Bridge got tagged with a five-minute high-sticking penalty and Muskies popped in three power play goals. The major against Bridge was question- able as it appeared to be accidental and the Lindsay player was back on the ice after a minute or two. In that game Friday night, MoJacks started Dave Cheetham in the nets. He played the season for Ux- bridge, and while he made several good stops early in the game, he could not be faulted for most of the goals as the MoJacks simply fell apart in front of him. Back on home ice Sunday night, the MoJacks looked like a completely different team and speedy Rob [3 Koker & Son Ltd.

Greiner worked his way around the defense and neatly slipped the puck past Lindsay goalie Paul Wiltshire. Early in the first, MoJacks were awarded a penalty shot when Lindsay defenseman Tom Lucas fell on the puck in the goal crease. Phil Coch- rane took the shot but he drilled the puck into the goalie's pads from 20 feet out. The period ended with MoJacks up by one goal, and at the 3:02 mark of the second Gord Hintze made it 2-0 when he tipped in a goal-mouth pass from Rob Evans. Evans did all the work as he lugged the puck 'down the right boards and slid a perfect pass to Hintze. A minute later Bill Owen connected with a 60-foot slap shot from the right point on a pass from Greiner while the MoJacks enjoyed a man advantage.

Early in the third, the Muskies Tom Lucas went after Mark Jobb as he lay on finally the ice. Jobb covered up, and while both players got two minutes for high-stick- ing, Lucas got an extra five for being the aggressor in a fight. Jobb refused to get drawn into the fight.
