Quality-minded MoJacks pumped for opener By Wally Donaldson Special to the Star One of the most familiar words heard around the Port Perry ModJacks' dressing room in the last little while has been "quality." Quality efforts, quality ath- letes, a quality approach to the Central Ontario Junior C Hock- ey League season, quality this and quality that... Suffice to say the ModJacks are primed for their season opener Sunday night when they play host to Georgina Ice at Scu- gog Arena, starting at 7 p.m. "If there is one thing that can be said about this year's camp in comparison to previous ones, it's been the all-business ap- proach of the players - and that includes our veterans," says general manager Murray Par- liament. ModJacks completed their ex- hibition schedule with an im- pressive five-win one-loss record, their most recent out- ings on an optimistic note while knocking off the Merchants 5-3 in Little Britain Thursday night and ripping the teeth out of the Schomberg Cougars 10-2 Satur- day evening in Nobleton. Their work ethic is a testimo- ny to the format new head coach Chic Carnegie and his new as- sistant, Brett Puckrin, have uti- lized throughout the initial stages. "Basically, you don't know what your rookies are go- ing to do at first," Parliament points out, "but I'm amazed at the quality we've had at camp. "Practically every kid who came to camp was committed to having a successful season. The veterans looked around the dressing room and realized the quality around them and that made them work harder. And you could tell the rookies want- ed to be a part of it. The overall enthusiasm was there. If not for the veterans who did come back, many of the kids we finally did let go would easily have been with the club." Steve Barkwell, Mike Pigeau, Kevin Vivian, Scott Heasman and Duane Empringham tallied for MoJacks in Little Britain. Barkwell, who has played im- pressively on a line with Todd Dennis and Keith Leslie, col- lected three goals against the Cougars with Leslie chipping in a pair. Other marksmen were Dave Leeming, Ryan Ridgway, Empringham, Ryan McArthur and Derek Wright. And from these pre-season encounters, the MoJacks have settled on their two goaltend- ers. Not surprisingly, Rick Hutchinson returns to the fold. However, in a torrid battle for the second spot, Paul Roberts, who played high school hockey | last season in Oshawa, has been given the nod. "We had quality in camp from goaltending out," remarks Carnegie. "I was interested in seeing the players' reaction in camp and everyone seemed to realize the quality was there. They realized thatifthey hadn't been a part of this quality, they wouldn't have been in the (dressing) room.
