Spruce Kings win one-sided affair

by Ted Clarke of the Prince George Citizen

Kings defenceman Jeff Forsythe came in to rescue Christian, who had been hit over the head twice and cross-checked across the face by the stick of Brad Davis. Muchalla jumped into the Davies-Brodie scrap as the third man in, and that attracted Paul Levarsky, who rammed Muchalla into the net and was about to duke it out with the pint-sized Kings forward when Forsythe intervened.

The Kings took full advantage, keeping their feet moving, finishing checks and beating Trail to virtually every loose puck as they outshot the Smokies 20-3 in the opening frame.

The Smokies got themselves in penalty trouble with the second period half gone and found themselves two men short for 83 seconds. They were also without a head coach for the rest of the game when bench boss Jim Ingram got tossed for disputing referee Korey Martens’ assessment of the situation.
