Terrace Review —— Wednesday, September | 1, 1991 B3

Ice-Breaker opens hockey season| Sharples still

Men’s hockey in Terrace opens its season this
weekend with the third annual Todd Gieselman
Memorial Ice-Breaker tournament at the arena.

A complete roster of teams will include local,
Kitimat, Smithers, Stewart and Fraser Lakes
entries playing recreational-style hockey.

Action opens Friday night at 7:30, with more

games Saturday and finals Sunday afternoon.
Plans call for two divisions for round-robin,
with top teams advancing to single-climination
playoffs. Winners will be awarded trophies, and
any money cleared from the tournament goes
into a memorial education fund for the late Todd

Gieselman’s daughter.

Terrace Minor Hockey got off to its traditional season start with
registration and a used equipment exchange at the Terrace
Arena Saturday. A Summer Hockey School overseen by

Terrace NHL defenceman Jeff Sharples concluded recently, and
the men’s hockey league starts play this coming weekend. It's
that time of the year again.

stage,” he said. “They’ve come
up with two offers, neither of
which is close to what I want.”

So, he’s prepared to sit out the
future and perhaps get deeper into
the pizza parlor business he start-
ed up with his uncle earlier this
year on the lower mainland.

“What I want in hockey and
what they (the Devils) are set to
offer are way apart. They invited
me to training camp but I’m not
going. I’d be risking injury in our ~
current situation and it’s not
worth it.”

So, he’s home in Terrace wait-
ing for phone calls from his agent
and any interested hockey teams.

Meanwhile,-Sharples is pleased
with this year’s minor hockey
summer school in Terrace. Total
attendance was a record 225 —
their best ever.

Plans are underway for a 10-
year reunion of the midget minor
hockey Totem Ford team from
Terrace that won the B.E. title in —
the early 80’s and travelled to
Quebec for.the Air Canada Cup
National finals.

“We hope to get together during
next summer’s school for a few
days of hockey, some fishing,
golf and a banquet and dance,”
Sharples said. ;
