Menzies, however, remains optimistic about his club's per- formance so far and is quick to put Sunday's loss into perspec- tive. | 10. 4 i Brad Menzies (Bowmanville) got a few breaks early on with deflections and things went from there," said Menzies. "I don't think they came out any stronger than the other nights, just to- night the bounces were good to them." : Menzies pulled Hutchinson after Bowmanville went ahead 8-1 and Larocque, who rushed to get ready after arrivingin the second period, gave up only one goal and made some strong saves in the third. It was Hutchinson who was the strong one during ModJack wins in games one and two, making some stellar saves and holding the high-powered Eagle offence to only four goals. Men- zies hasn't forgotten that and says the decision to pull Hutch- inson Sunday night had noth- ing to do with his play. "One guys got to step up and take control and Rick did that in the first two games, but he wasn't getting much help to- night so I didn't want him to get discouraged." Hutchinson, who had argua- bly his best playoff game just one night earlier in a 4-3 win at Scugog Arena, made no excuses for the logs Sunday but instead gave credit to the Eagles. "We shut them down offen- sively in the first two games," said Hutchinson, "but I think they've been trying to find a hole in our defense and tonight they found some." Looking ahead to game four of the series in Port Perry Wednesday night, Menzies isn't about to make any major chang- esin his game plan. "Nothing too different," he said. "We might want to bear down in our own end a little more but, (with a 2-1 series lead), we're still in good shape." "Come Wednesday, it's a whole new night. We'll go home and try and win one there." Rick Hutchinson Game 2 The ModJacks took a 2-1 series lead thanks to a big win Satur- day night at Scugog Arena. Rick Hutchinson was the strong as he stymied the Eagles' shooters at key moments in the game to preserve the slim lead his team had given him. Much like game one of the se- ries, Hutchinson was bombard- ed with shots from Bowman- ville's offence as the Eagles came busting out of the gates Lasy logel ts...

While Port Perry couldn't muster a shot on Drew Camp- bell until the five minute mark of the first period, Hutchinson saw more rubber than the. Queen's Highway at rush hour. Gary Adams' goal only 51 sec- onds into the first period un- nerved a capacity crowd at Scu- gog Arena, but Hutchinson settled them down in a hurry as he made several great saves to give his mates a chance to draw even, which they did late in the period. An Eagle defender threw the puck blindly in front of his own net right to Keith Leslie. The big Port Perry centreman snapped a shot by Campbell low to the stick side to tie the score atone afterone. Bowmanville struck early again in the middle frame as the Modacks were victimized while on the powerplay. Steve Staniland couldn't reach a high clearance attempt and Bowmanville's Adams broke free. Adams made a nice move to get around Todd Den- nis and go in close on Hutchin- son. Once again, however, it was Hutchinson who came up big following Adam's gecond goal, stalling the Eagles' attack until Port Perry tied the score at two at 8:48 of the second. With the man-advantage, the ModJacks penetrated the Bow- manville zone in an attempt to set up the powerplay unit.
