Deloraine Royals repeat as THHL League champions Game 5 of the Tiger HIlls Hockey League playoffs was held Saturday, March 28, with the Deloraine Royals facing off against the Gladstone Lakers in Gladstone. It was a close, exciting contest with the Royals edging the Lakers 4-3 to capture the hardware for the second consecutive year. Congratulations and good luck in the Manitoba Cup series.

Deloraine hit the scoreboard first on a goal by Ryan Adams, assisted by Jason Swyripa and Ryan Marsh at the 14:39 mark of the opening period. The Lakers scored to tie the game at one before Brad Twordik once again put the Royals ahead with 6:23 remaining in the period. Gladstone scored late in the period to draw even heading into the second period. In the middle frame Jeff Dort capitalized on a breaka2008 John Deere 9630

way and put the puck top corner to once again put the Royals out in front 3-2. A disasterous minute and a half with 4 minutes left to play in the period saw the Lakers score three quick goals to take a 5-3 lead. Rather than folding the tent, the Royals fought back and collected a powerplay goal by Jason Swyripa with 20 seconds to play in the period to trail 5-4 after two. In the final frame, Swyripa converted a pass from Twordik and Justin Perreaux to pull the Royals even with 13 minutes to play. The stage was set for some more last minute heroics as was witnessed earlier in the playoffs with Ryan Marsh burying the puck with 6.6 seconds remaining in the game to give the Royals the victory. The Royals do not have long to savour the win however as they will put their title defence on the line Saturday night in Gladstone at 8:00 p.m.
Scoring summary: 1. Adams - Swyripa - Marsh; 2. Twordik - Perreaux - More; 3. Dort - unassisted; 4. Swyripa - Whiteside Adams (pp); 5. Swyripa - Twordik - Perreaux; 6. Marsh - Olson - Jago (Continued on Page 3)

Deloraine Royals repeat as THHL League champions (Continued from Page 1) Royals repeat as THHL Champions - Saturday, March 28 Final score: Deloraine Royals 4 - Gladstone Lakers 3 The Deloraine Royals proved they had what it takes to repeat as Tiger Hills Hockey League Champions defeating a tough Gladstone Lakers team 4-3 in the 5th and deciding game of the Tiger Hills Hockey Championships. In a series that saw two very evenly matched teams battle it out for league supremacy, the Royals prevailed Saturday night in Gladstone. When the game finally began after an hour’s delay due to ice issues, the Royals exploded out of the gate scoring three goals in the first 7 minutes. Jeff Dort opened the scoring with a powerplay goal at the 18:31 mark assisted by Brad Twordik and Mitch Olson. The Lakers got that one back with a goal of their own a minute later while the Royals this time were short-handed. Brett Morrison gave the Royals a 2-1 lead at the 14:43 mark assisted by Ryan Marsh and a minute later again on the powerplay, Cory More put Deloraine up 3-1 with assists going to Brad Twordik and Ryan Adams. The Royals would retain the lead for the remainder of the contest. In the second period, Gladstone scored on the tail end of a powerplay to narrow the gap to 3-2 but the Royals’ Nolan Jago would get that one back with 6:43 to play in the sec ond to give the team a two goal cushion. The final scoring play of the game came with 1:21 left in the second when the Lakers recorded their third and final goal. Deloraine continued to hold off the Lakers in the third period once again receiving exceptional goaltending from Cody Matthewson. With under 5 minutes to play, the Royals held off the Lakers during a short-handed situa tion successfully killing off the penalty and then preventing Gladstone from pulling their goaltender until there was under a minute to play. With the victory Deloraine earns the League Title as well as the right to represent the Tiger Hills League at the prestigious Manitoba Cup Provincial Senior A Tournament. The win was especially satisfying for the Royals this season after coming from a 4th place Western Division League finish, battling through three tough Western Division playoff opponents and going the dis tance with a stronger Laker team than they faced in the 2013-2014 Final. Deloraine will now await the schedule and their opponents for the Provincial A Tournament held the middle 2 weekends in April. The schedule will be posted once it has been finalized. Scoring summary: 1. Dort - Twordik - Olson (pp); 2. Morrison - Marsh; 3. More - Twordik - Adams (pp); 4. Jago - Olson - Marsh.

Odds & Ends by Judy Wells
An evening with Tim Hague by Judy Wells Overcoming great odds has shaped Tim Hague Sr.’s life. He went from a diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease to, just three years later, becoming the inaugural winner of CTV’s The Amazing Race Canada. You can hear his inspiring story on Saturday, April 11, at Harvest Community Church in Deloraine at 7:30 p.m. Compassion®, in cooperation with Fellowship Community Church and Harvest Community Church, are presenting “An Evening with Tim Hague”. First a bit about Compassion®: • Compassion is a childfocused charity that part-
ners with churches in the developing world to fight poverty and share the good news of Jesus Christ with children and families. • Compassion currently works in 26 countries and reaches more than 1.6 million children. • The emphasis is on helping the individual child grow in all aspects of life: physical, mental, social and spiritual. The goal is to have children develop healthy minds, bodies and relationships, and to hear about God’s love for them in Jesus. If you had to sum it up in one word what Compassion® is, it would be “holistic child development” - this is key to Compassion’s ministry.
Deloraine
The Canadian Compassion office opened in 1963. More about Tim Hague Sr.: Tim’s message of strength and courage leave audiences motivated to meet life’s challenges and do more than they ever thought they could. Tim and his son, Tim Hague Jr., put their nowtrademark perseverance to work while participating as a duo on The Amazing Race Canada. When the pair finally came out on top in the last competition of the race, they had never before won any stages and in fact had nearly been eliminated from the show twice. Despite the odds, “The Tim’s” as viewers
affectionately dubbed them, kept their focus on overcoming one obstacle at a time to take the championship, a message of hope that Tim draws on in his talks. As a registered nurse and professional speaker, Tim is active in the promotion of healthy, balanced lifestyles and deeply involved in the promotion of Parkinson’s issues and building awareness around Young Onset Parkinson’s Disease working closely with groups such as the Parkinson Society and the Reh-Fit Centre. Mark your calendar for Saturday, April 11, for this excellent opportunity to hear Tim Hague’s inspirational presentation.
A huge shout out to the Deloraine Royals who won the Tiger Hills Hockey League title for the second consecutive time. Their playoff series have been hard fought and they posted some unbelievable comebacks as well. The first series was a best of three against Boissevain in which the Royals won 2 games straight. The second series saw them face the first place Killarney Shamrocks. Game 2 will long be remembered for the amazing comeback by the Royals. Many fans had already headed outside to warm up their vehicles which seemed like a logical thing to do as there was 20 seconds remaining with the Royals down two goals. Well, they gave the saying “never give up” new meaning in that 20 seconds, tying up the game to go into overtime. And then winning in OT! Itʼs one for the record books hockey fans! Anyway, the remaining three games in the series were all tough contests. The Royals needed their best efforts to come away with a 3-2 series lead and to advance to face the Hartney Blues. Things definitely didnʼt get any easier in this series. The Blues are a determined, talented bunch and they have a large, devoted following. Once the dust settled, the Royals had won the series three games to one, winning the West Division of the THHL. And it was onward to face off with the Gladstone Lakers (winners of the East Division). Game 1 and 2 were in Gladstone and the teams split with a win each. Game 3 and 4 were at the Doc Bonar and again the teams split with a win each. These contests were all very close, the teams are very evenly matched and mistakes usually caused a goal. The fifth and final game was played on March 28 back in Gladstone. The Royals edged the Lakers 4-3 for the League title. It has to be mentioned that throughout each playoff series, Royals goaltender Cody Matthewson was nothing short of outstanding! He stood tall in the net virtually game after game. So, the Royals now advance to another playoffs of sorts and if they win that, they will advance to the Manitoba Cup tournament. Stay tuned for details. • • • Deloraine Border Festival starts next week. April 6-10 is the Piano discipline, taking place at the Harvest Community Church. Check out the Festival website at www.deloraineborderfestival.net for any and all information regarding the festival. • • • Congratulations to the Boissevain Broncos Varsity Basketball team for winning their zone championship. This team has a Deloraine connection in that the head coach Leon Rushing and two players, Marcus Villanueva and Kale Rushing, all live in Deloraine. The victory was especially sweet as the team had struggled through the season and they werenʼt thought to be a threat going into the Zones. They surprised their opponents with a solid performance when it counted. Way to go Coach Rushing and players!

Southwest Showcase presents “Cadence” by Judy Wells What sounds like a complete orchestra but isn’t? The answer is the a capella group known as “Cadence”. This amazing group is based in Toronto and they graced the stage at the DeloraineWinchester Theatre on March 25. They refer to themselves as “Canada’s premiere crew of musi cal misfits” but nothing could be further from the truth. Their concert is chalk full of incredi ble harmonies, unique arrangements, rich sound and unbelievable versatility. You find yourself literally look ing around for the musi cal instruments but there is nary any in sight. Cadence’s motto is ‘instruments are for sur geons.’ The four men who make up Cadence include Ross Lynde of Toronto (tenor), Lucas Marchand, formerly of Victoria (tenor), Kurt Sampson, formerly of PEI (bass and vocal per cussion) and David Lane, formerly of Alberta (vocal percus sion). The concert was opened with “Hit That Jive Jack” a lively jazz
number. They followed up with a song made famous by the likes of The Golden Gate Jubilee Quartet and Four Voices - “Shadrach, Meshach & Abednego.” “We’ve been very lucky to travel all over the world. In fact, we just came back from Dubai where we were on a manmade island shaped like a palm tree. That was great but it’s always good to be home again,” said Marchand. These men are proud Canadians but not too proud to play a bit of a spoof on fellow Canadian and artist, Justin Beiber.

Market Report
This week’s market closing values: Change
1-week
YTD
by Robert Cey April is the start of earnings season. Each quarter companies report their net earnings and also give guidance on what to expect for growth and earnings in the near future. Money managers watch earnings season about as close as a Winnipeg hockey fan watches the Jets. Typically the last week of March and the first week of April are when the markets drop and then take off again. This repeats itself every year as long as companies report profits that are what was expected by market analysists. We all know someone who is involved directly in the oil industry and may have a friend, family member or neighbour who has been negatively affected by the oil prices. With that being said, I wanted to share some basic infor mation so we can have a little better understanding of the oil industry and why we are all affected by that industry one way or another. How many gallons of oil are there in a barrel? Forty-two US gallons (35 imperial gallons), or 159 litres. How many barrels of oil are produced and consumed a day? As of early 2015, the IEA www.iea.org/oilmarketreport/ forecast average demand for the year of more than 93 million barrels of oil and liquid fuels per day worldwide that works out to more than 34 billion barrels a year - with January 2015 pro duction totalling just over 94 million barrels per day. What is crude oil? Crude oil is a mineral oil consisting of a mixture of hydrocarbons of natural origin and associated impurities, such as sulphur. It exists in liquid form under normal surface temperatures and pressure. Its physi cal characteristics (for example, density) are highly variable. Where is the bulk of oil demand growth going to come from? In the next five years, almost half of global oil demand growth will come from ANNUAL FUNDRAISING SUPPER China and this trend is set to continue to 2040, as oil demand from the transportation sector is Deloraine Legion growing strongly in Begins @ 5:30 p.m. countries such as China $15 per person (includes dessert) and India.

Market Report (Continued from Page 6) decline over the outlook period, driven mostly by government policies on fuel efficiency and the fact that rates of vehicle ownership are already high. Market News After a generally positive start, most stock mar kets retreated this week on US economic concerns. Positive economic data included continuing muted US inflation, with moderate inflation likely to help maintain the Federal Reserve’s cautious stance on interest rates. New-home sales in February rose almost 8%, to their highest level in seven years. Existing home sales also increased. Slowing economic growth, however, caused some concern for market participants. The final reading of US gross domestic product for the last quarter of 2014 indicated that growth slowed to 2.2% y-o-y. The commerce department also reported that corporate profits (after tax) fell by 3% over the previous quarter, the largest quarterly drop since the first quarter of 2011. Declines in durable goods orders and non-defense capital goods orders in February pointed to a possible downshift in the economy during the first quarter. Canada’s S&P/TSX index was initially supported by advancing base metals and gold prices, but later fell back on US economic data. However, it fared better than many global indexes. The energy sector benefitted from rising oil prices which surged as

Crossroads This week Local band has success Promoting a little bit of country, a little bit of rock n; roll - Jump The Clutch - is no stranger to the music industry, despite being relatively new on the Manitoba scene. The high energy group composed of five boys from the prairies was formed about four years ago when Major Pratt graduate JR Charron teamed up with four other musicians including fellow Park West School Division graduates Ben Waddell of Shoal Lake and Jacob Moreau of Russell. Rounding out the band are Spencer Myers of Glenboro and Quinton Watt of Reston. The band’s biggest jump came when they recorded the single “Day Worth Livin’ For”, written by Charron in honour of his late father, who played a major role in making what Charron stands for today. On release day, the song recorded at Blacklist Studios in Winnipeg, had reached an astounding 22nd spot on the iTunes country chart and 122 on the Google Play North America.

The Boissevain Recorder Billaney Plumbing open for business Jason Billaney is hoping roots in the community and plenty of experience will bode well for his new business. Billaney Plumbing got started a couple of weeks ago. The proprietor got started with Dale Merritt of Boissevain Plumbing and Heating in 1997. After spending some time with Hammond Construction, Billaney said he was looking for a different job and the two connected. Right now, he is just running out of his house. In the future, depending on volume of work, he might look at a storefront. “I am home-based,” said Billaney. “I have lived here for 35 years and I know a lot of people in town. I hope that works to my advantage.”
