Metro Junior "B" Hockey League have phayed 14 garnes t0 date, winning seven, Iosing six with one gaie lied. The teani is îlot ini trouble, but could very welI end up tliat way if they continue to play the way they have ini their recent outings. The last three garncs for the liremnen have ended ini losses, miainly due to thc f'act that they don't sceem 1o want to do any real body checking. Somi erebers of the teain give ýail they've got, while others seemn to think thai if you show the opposition how fast you can skate orhlow fancy you cati stickhandle they wiII let you go whiere you please. The gaine of' hockey just isn't played that way if you waI1t 10 WIl. The Tiremien have a lot of good hockey players ini the lino-up, and if îlîey want to remiain in the lino-up, they had better start to show that they can handie thernselves instead. of letting other tearns corne in and push thern around. Coach Bill Berwick is a knowledgeable and patient man, but the patience could start to wear thin. 1437 KING ST.
