Orono Atom Donut Gallery Hockey News 1Orono Donut Gallery travelled to Manvers on Saturday, January 13, 1996 to participate in the Atoin Hockey Tournamnent. Donut Gallery's first match was against Whitby's Bank of Montreal. Whitby scored an early goal ini the first period, catching the Orono defencemen by surprise with their quick skating speed. Orono got into the gaine when Chris Ouimet made some good plays to move the puck ahead for Orono in this gaine. Tyler Gregg was playing a strong gamne forechecking, intercepting passes and working hard to even the score, before he was taken out of action midway through the first period as a result of a wicked slash to the thumb which the Referees did not see. Tyler did flot play the rest of the gaine. Shawni DeJong worked hard to make up for the loss of Ty,,ler, by repeatedly keeping the puck on-side when in the of fensive end. In addition, Shawn played good defence, taking a penalty wheni necessary to prevenit Whitby fromn walking in on the Orono goalie. The Uine of Mike Knapp, Matt Barnes and Jeff Dickinson had an outstandinggÉaine. Jefand Matt worked the corners well, battling for control of the puck. Ail three players made sorte good passes and had a number of shots on net. The hard work paid off when Mike Knapp potted a goal late in the third period, foîling Wvhîtb's bid for a shut-out. Whitby won the gaie 3- 1. Orono Donut Gallery moved on to the "B" Semi- Final against Manvers. The teain played it's best gaine of the season in an exciting match that kept the parents and families of the players on the edge of their seats, cheering on the teamn. Oronio(got an early lead when Stephen Webb)I scored his first career goal, unassisted, with. his newly acquired wrist shot. This important goal was a well- deserved re-wardl for the hard work and numerous scoring opportunities Stephen createdi in the previous gamne. Stephien"s goal invigorated an already pumped teain.

Residential customers who use 1,000 kwh per month will pay 3.9% to 12.4% less than customers Lofgren and Jordan Beacock ail had shots on net. that were stopped by the Manvers goalie. Kevîn Martin and Kienan Williams were solid on defence and each had one breakaway opportunity. With a 1-0 lead, goalie Josh Brandt made a heart- stoppîng save when he found h mself alone against three Manvers players on a rush. However, late in the second period, Manvers managed to even the score. Donut Gallery dld not give up and kept pushing the pace. Robert Roth was the hero who scored the unassisted go-ahead goal for Orono. The Orono teain continued to keep up the pressure, but Manvers got a lucky break- late in the third period, when a shot was deflecte~i in the net. The regulatiori gaine ended in a 2-2 tie, forcing a five- minute sudden death overtime. Despite intense play by both teams, there was no goal and Manvers, eventually won the game in a shoot-out. Orono Donut Gallery left this tournament with the knowledge that they can play intense and passionate hockey. The familles of the players went home with sore throats. And one red-faced tearn member went home with the memory of one of Life's Most 1Embarrassing Moments. Midway through the game, fans noticed what initially appeared to be an extra puck being kicked around on the ice. It soon became evident that one of Orono's players had lost a vital piece of equipment during this very physîcal gaine. The Referee eventually retrieved the item and returned it to the bench. (I promised 1 wouldn't namne the player.) Prior to the Manvers Tournamnent, Donut Gallery played thrce C.R.H.L. games. The summary of points earned in those games by Orono players is as follows: Tyler Gregg - two goals, Kyle MacDonald - two goals, Robe.rt Roth, Jordan Beacock and Will Lofgren earned one assist each. in Clarington served by Ontario Hydro.
