for big cash _

- Brise repeats

Rob Brise’s all-relative rink of
Smithers won the annual Ter-
race cash bonspiel for the third
time. This time he took home
$1,688 for beating Smithers
clubmate Don Palmer 10-4 in
the final.

The. Brise victory spoiled
Palmer’s crack at the Northwest
“triple ‘crown’? of curling.
Palmer had earlier won the
Prince Rupert cash event, and
was looking forward to notching
Terrace and the upcoming
Smithers spiel to his belt of vic-
tories. Here he won $1,125.

{t was a second straight vic-

tory for Brise at the Terrace.

event, He also won a few years
back.
Sixteen teams had entered the
men’s side of the three-day curl-
ing exravaganza. A last-minute
dropout resulted in a revision of
all denominations of cash prizes..
The ladies’ side of the spiel,
won by Prince Rupert’s Wendy
Atchison,- was also short one
team from a roster of eight.
Atchison had to steal two in
the 10th end to count a 5-4 win
over Janice Himech of Smithers.
Atchison won $600 while
Himech settled for $400.
Brise opened the playoff with
a 6-5 loss to Ken Blanes of Ter-
race on ‘A’ side. This dropped
him to ‘B’ where he needed two
wins to be among the eight
qualifiers for the big money,
Brise came through with a 9-2

victory over Jeff Davidson of:

Terrace, then a 9-6 win over Ken
Bazanski of Prince Rupert. —

In the eight-team playoff,
Brise eliminated Bob Baase of
Houston, Bruce Kerr of Prince
Rupert knocked off Ken Giles of
Smithers, Palmer took out- Rich
Green of Terrace, and Larry
Reinboldt of Smithers bounced

Larry Burke of Terrace.

The four losers —
Green, Baase and Burke — each
won $186 for their effort.

Fitzpatrick
returns to
minors.

Despite a successful winning
debut for Los Angeles Kings
over Chicago Blackhawks last
week, Kitimat’s netminder Mark
Fitzpatrick has been shipped
back to New Haven Nighthawks
of the American Hockey
League.

Apparently Mark’s recall
earlier from ‘the minors was a
three-game deal whereby he’d
play one game and backup the
other two. Los Angeles said it
wasn’t a_ recall-due-to-injury
situation — just the Kings’ long-
range plan for bringing the

rookie Fitzpatrick along slowly. .

Wade next. aot

in NHL? ~

Will the Northwest area soon —
have a second goaltender enter-
ing the NHL scene? - ee

A weekend move seems to be
leading in that direction. The
Buffalo Sabres traded star

rasso to Pittsburgh Penguins.

In exchange for .Barraso, a
former rookie-of-the-year: and .
Vezina trophy winner, the
Sabres picked up defenceman
Doug Bodger and left winner -
Darrin Shannon.

' §o, how does that affect our
area? oo

Last June, the Sabres drafted
Terrace netminder Wade Flaher-
ty from Victoria Cougars of the
Western Junior Hockey League. ,
Wade attended Sabres’ training
camp in the fall,. but was sent
back to Victoria for another
season to gain experience.

The trading of Barrasso leaves
Buffalo with three goalies on
their roster — number one Dar-'
ren Puppa, backup Jacques
Cloutier, and third-stringer Dar-.
cy Wakaluk (a junior drafted

It obviously means Buffalo
has confidence in the current
goaltending, arid. likely that
Flaherty stands a better chance
to crack the team’s lineup for
1989-90. .

It would have to be an emer-
gency measure (regular player
hurt) before the Sabres would
think of bringing up Flaherty.
Therefore Wade will no doubt
play the entire year with Vic-
toria. |

In any case, Barrasso’s de-
parture does open the door a bit
wider for Flaherty.

With Kitimat’s Mark Fitzpat-
rick already tasting. the big
league, area fans would have
another team to cheer for if
