This changed Brian‘s mind someâ€"what, and as the Brian had, in his own mind, reconsidered the possibility of a trip to Ottawa. The Nation‘s Capitol beckoned strongly. Unfortunately, perhaps in deference to his change of mind, adversity struck. Brian caught one of his fingers in a fan at work, and any thoughts of playing hockey on the Labour Day weekend were dismissed. It would take sevâ€" eral weeks, and an operation to repair the damaged tenâ€" dons to make the digit workâ€" able once agina. Obviously, this ruined any chances to become a skater with Ottawa this season.

Brian feels that although slowly, we‘re not too bad now. The Coach is working us hard, and it‘s paying off. Sure, Stratford and Elmira are out in front now, but all the other teams are equal and it‘s a good league. Stratford‘s not as good as last year, and we can beat them and Elmira, following the Siskin‘sg, near triumph in Stratford last Friâ€" day (a 8â€"6 loss to the Ist place Cullitons) the team is ready to make a move to close the distance between themselves and the top position. Brian played all his minor hockey in Waterloo, six years at the Alâ€"Star level, and was awarded a Most Valuable Player trophy in the 69â€"70 season, and ended the followâ€" ing year as the high scorer on the tearn. In addition to hockey, Brian enjoys other team sports such as basketâ€" ball, football, soccer and rugâ€" ger.
