Minor Midget, 2011-2012 (Elgin-Middlesex Canucks)

Coach Craig Warwick and his minor Midget team donated $2616.25 to the Canadian Cancer Society in memory of Steve Phillips and Dave Whaley. The funds were raised through generous donations and the volunteer efforts of the team. The ’96 Chiefs held a silent auction and benefit hockey game against the Lambton Sting at their home rink in Komoka. The event was a huge success!

vs Sun County Panthers The ’96 Chiefs stole 3 out of 4 points from the opposition this weekend. The first game was against the reigning 2011 Waterloo Golden Puck Champions, the Sun County Panthers. The Panthers were coming off an upset win over the LJK Gold to win the tourney.

The ’96 Chiefs hosted the Chatham Cyclones for their last of four meetings this season. The Cyclones have had a series of decisive losses to LJK GOLD 6-0, Lambton 6-1, and Brantford 7-3. On this night, they came out tough and managed a total of 32 shots on Chief Goaltender Dan Black #1 including two separate 5 on 3 power plays, but were still kept off the score sheet. The Chiefs scored 3 in the 1st period, 4 in the 2nd period, and then went into the trap for the 3rd period scoring an additional 2 goals to win the game decisively 9-0.
