Does Burnaby have a rat ‘epidemic’? Janaya Fuller-Evans

staff reporter

Don’t feed the wildlife. This is the message a Burnaby man is hoping city council will send to residents, to deal with a rat problem in the Metrotown area. Craig Wilson has lived in Burnaby for 34 years and says he has never seen the rat problem as bad as it is now. “I’ve noticed it for about five years, but for the past two it’s been an epidemic,” he said. Wilson spoke to council at Monday

night’s meeting about the problem, saying he thinks it stems in part from the people scattering birdseed along the parkway underneath the SkyTrain line. He has seen as many as seven rats at a time feeding on birdseed in the low-lying bushes along the greenway, he said in a phone interview prior to the meeting. “It’s gotten to the point in that area that if I hear a woman scream I don’t even look up anymore,” he said, adding he knows she’s seen a rat. Wilson walks through his neighbourhood in the Edmonds area towards Central Park on a daily basis, he said, and notices

at least a couple of rats every time, and often as many as five to seven. He’s noticed a lot of bird feces, as well as rats, near the Maywood Community School, Wilson said, adding it is a health issue for children in the area. “Birds carry all sorts of diseases,” he said.’’ While he has seen some rats around Central Park, he said he thinks the population is lower there because of coyotes in the area. Squirrels also feed on the birdseed in the park, he said, adding they are also vermin, just with bushier tails.

He said he and two TransLink workers saw 15 rats in under a minute underneath the Metrotown SkyTrain station about two years ago. There was a woman feeding birds in his neighbourhood recently, but as soon as a sign was put up stating, “Don’t feed the wildlife,” she stopped, according to Wilson. He would like council to approve similar signs throughout the area, to help combat the rodent population. Coun. Nick Volkow said there is some question of jurisdiction in the area, as Rats Page 4

some of the property is the responsibility of TransLink and not the city. But he added the birdseed is definitely an issue in the area and needs to be dealt with. “At Metrotown station, there’s an individual feeding birds like crazy over there,” he said. The city would need to speak with TransLink about maintaining the area under the SkyTrain line, he said, but such discussions haven’t been easily resolved in the past. “It is very serious, a serious concern,” Mayor Derek Corrigan said to Wilson, adding that council would have staff look into the jurisdictional issues and how to move forward on the problem. Ken Hardie, spokesperson for TransLink, said that to his knowledge there haven’t been any reports of a large rat population underneath the Metrotown SkyTrain station recently. He had not heard about any particular rat problems along the line in South Burnaby but would look into it, he said. Dave Ellenwood, director of parks, recreation and cultural services for Burnaby, also hadn’t heard about a rat problem in or near Central Park, he said. He spoke with the superintendent for that area and there were no spikes reported in the amount of rats, he said. But he added that the city doesn’t measure the rat levels in Burnaby and only has anecdotal information. Ellenwood said he was interested in hearing Wilson’s presentation. jfuller-evans@ burnabynow.com

Burnaby residents may want to keep their pets close and their garbage under wraps, after a black bear sighting in the city. Rick Nichols, of the Sapperton Fish and Game Club, was driving his truck along Government Road when he spotted an adult black bear crossing the road at about 11:15 a.m. on Thursday morning. “All at once, this big black bear come walking out of the bush, crossed the road. I could have hit him with my truck. I more or less stopped for him,” Nichols said, adding the adult male was about four or five feet tall on all fours. “He was a big feller, he was no little puppy dog. He just wandered across the road as if he had no worry at all.” Nichols spotted the bear just east of Gaglardi, where Stoney Creek runs under Government Road. A close brush with the bruin didn’t seem to rattle Nichols. “I’m sorry, but I hunt and fish, so it doesn’t bother me. It’s just odd to see a bear that size in a municipality here,” he said. Nichols guessed the bear most likely

got hungry and descended from Burnaby Mountain, following the green corridor along Stoney Creek. Bears will eat grass, he said, but this one could also be looking for fish downriver. And, if the bear develops a taste for trash, there could be trouble. “Once a bear gets on garbage, he’s no good,” Nichols said. “He won’t go and feed on his natural food.” Nichols warned people to keep their pets close while walking along the creek. “He’ll go after a little dog. If he’s hungry enough, he’ll go after a big dog too,” he said. According to Nichols, if people encounter the bear, they should leave him alone and back off. “Don’t pester him, just walk backwards,” he cautioned, adding you should never turn your back on a bear. According to the provincial government, bears can lose their natural fear of humans if they start associating people with food. If you spot a bear in the distance, don’t approach – just make a wide detour on your way out of the area. If the bear is close, remain calm, avoid eye contact and move away but don’t run. www.twitter.com/JenniferMoreau

In recent weeks, three children have fallen from windows in New Westminster and Burnaby – in one case, a two-year-old child passed away as a result of her injuries. It is difficult to comprehend the magnitude of this family’s loss, and our hearts go out to them. Sadly, they are not alone: a 2009 Child and Youth Injury report from the Public Health Agency of Canada lists falls as one of the main categories of unintentional injury deaths in the country. Though motor vehicle traffic acci-

dents by far lead the way, drownings – particularly in the summertime as the heat soars – falls, poisonings, suffocation and fires account for dozens of deaths each year. The good news is those numbers have been decreasing since the early ’90s as people become more aware of car seat guidelines and household safety. The bad news is that there are still far too many families suffering the loss of a child in accidents which might have been prevented. Even one is too many.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR It’s funding that lacks in schools Dear Editor:

I can’t believe Sacha Smith’s opinion (Private schools just plain better, In My Opinion, Burnaby NOW, June 17) on the public school system, health care and the entitlement she seems to feel over the fact she has lots of money. I happily send my children to South Slope Elementary where the teachers are caring and dedicated and not greedy and selfish, as Sacha unfairly accuses them of. I have the utmost respect for the teachers and staff that help to shape, teach and guide my children. If there is anything lacking in the schools, I blame the Liberal government for not adequately

funding them while letting big business and corporations not pay their fair share of taxes. I’d also like to know where this “yearly strike“ from the teachers she talks about is? The teachers haven’t been on strike since 2005, and class size was their priority in those strikes, which would benefit the children you claim they don’t care about. Sacha asks: “As Canadian citizens, we should all be entitled to health care and equal rights, but where are the equal rights for those who earn more?” She’s really saying that we are not all equal, that if you are rich you deserve more rights, better education and better health care.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Income inequality insulting continued from page 6

about children? They have no control over their parents’ socioeconmic situation. The level of income inequality in this country is really what’s degrading and insulting. Countries with higher levels of income inequality have higher levels of social problems at all levels of income. There has been a correlation between countries’ income inequality and their performance in life expectancy, infant mortality, obesity, mental illness, children’s educational attainment, teenage pregnancy and rates of homicide. A society with truly more equal rights and opportunities is better for everyone, including your wealthy family. Amber Keane, Burnaby

Biased and uninformed Dear Editor:

I should know better by now than to be annoyed by biased and uninformed comments regarding teachers, but wish to respond to Sacha Smith’s letter (Burnaby NOW, June 17) nevertheless. Having worked in the public school system for more than 25 years and having a number of friends who teach in the private school system, my experience has been that people go into teaching by and large because they enjoy working with students, and they work very hard on behalf of those students. There is nothing magical about working in one system or the other that creates

more dedicated teachers. My (now grown) children have no burning desire to become teachers because they have witnessed how demanding and time-consuming the job is. I’m not sure why Ms. Smith feels insulted. Her motives and effort are not being questioned. D. Martin, Burnaby

Will teachers step in?

Dear Editor:

Burnaby teachers told us that it was not possible for them to protect a certain group of students from being bullied. That’s why they needed policy 5.45. Now that they have it, this, in effect, makes one group of students and staff more equal than others. Does this mean all bullying is over and done with in Burnaby schools? I doubt it! Considering our Stanley Cup “celebrations,” we should all be interested in the performance of our teachers and university professors on another level. How many of them will come forward and help the authorities identify those involved in the disgusting display of general disdain for rules, authority and other people’s property. A lot of the vandals, thieves and cheerleaders of those involved in these criminal behaviours must be known to them. I sincerely hope that they will be part of the wave of disgusted citizens who are just sick about what happened and do not need yet another policy to do what’s right in order to achieve justice!

Riots: Political fallout unfolding continued from page 6

more over relatively minor charges, the end result may not be as appealing as first thought. The other politician with some potentially large amount of political capital at stake here is Vancouver Mayor Gregor Robertson, who is perhaps in a more vulnerable position. While Robertson was also quick to correctly align himself with public opinion, the fact that his city’s police department is fending off criticism over how it handled the riot can blow back on the mayor. The premier has announced there will be an independent, external inquiry into the riot, and that will touch on such

issues as police preparedness and response. If any evidence emerges that suggests funding pressures for the police department in any way influenced the outcome of the riot, things could get very sticky for the mayor. The police have been criticized for not having enough officers on hand the night of the riot, and for their benign response, which included not helping small businesses (and their staff) while their stores were being ransacked and looted. I’m not sure when the external inquiry wraps up its work, but keep in mind Robertson and his Vision Vancouver council colleagues face an election in November. They had

all better hope nothing negative arises from that inquiry, because if something bad does emerge, it may give the rival Non-Partisan Association, which has been on life support for several years, the kind of issue it has been searching for so desperately to allow it to get back on its feet. Look for the NPA to accuse the mayor and council of being more interested in bike lanes and backyard chickens instead of taking proper precautions before the riot. It may not be a fair criticism, but there’s a good chance it will resonate with some voters. Keith Baldrey is chief political correspondent for Global B.C.

HighGate crosswalk OK’d A marked crosswalk was approved by council for the south section of Salisbury Avenue and Arcola Street near HighGate Village last Monday. Other crosswalk locations were considered across Hall and Walker avenues, but the engineering department’s studies indicated traffic was busiest along Salisbury. The marked crosswalk would include crosswalk signs, and on-street parking would not be affected, according to the report from the director of engineering, Lambert Chu. Not all the locations warranted a marked crosswalk, he said, but the higher collision rate and nearby

Burnaby residents charged in riot Alfie Lau and Brent Richter staff reporter

In the aftermath of last week’s riot in downtown Vancouver after Game 7 of the Stanley Cup finals, Vancouver Police announced Monday that two Burnaby men are amongst the first people facing charges. Burnaby resident Edgar Ricardo Garcia, 20, is charged with aggravated assault after two men were stabbed in 700-block of Hornby Street. In another incident, a 22year-old Burnaby man, with no previous criminal convictions, is facing charges of assaulting a peace officer, break-and-enter, mischief and participation in a riot, after he was alleged to have thrown a water bottle at the police, broke a window and then entered a building near Library Square. Vancouver police announced that, as of Monday, 117 people have been arrested for a vari-

ety of offences, including breach of the peace, public intoxication, breach of probation, assault, mischief, theft, possession of stolen property and obstructing a peace officer. In addition, 12 people have turned themselves in to Vancouver Police and three others to police in outside jurisdictions. The charges come only days after a Burnaby youth was arrested and is facing several charges after his family recognized him in riot photos and took him to the Burnaby RCMP detachment, where he surrendered. The youth cannot be named under the Youth Criminal Justice Act. Police say the youth was involving in the looting of the Louis Vuitton store at the corner of Howe Street and West Georgia Street in Vancouver, and the destruction of a Vancouver police vehicle, which was flipped upside down during the rioting. Cpl. Rick Skolrood said

Policy talk Thursday Former Burnaby school trustee Helen Chang is hosting a forum Thursday night on the board’s recently passed policy combating homophobia. The forum features several speakers who supported the policy, including Chris Hitchcock, founder of the Burnaby Parents Gay/

Straight Alliance. “It’s a chance for people who are concerned with (the policy) or who have questions, to have an opportunity to talk openly and respectfully,” she said. The forum runs 6:30 to 8:30 p.m., June 23, at the Burnaby Multicultural Society, 6255 Nelson Ave.

the youth will appear in court in August to answer to charges of break and enter, theft, and mischief to property over $5,000. “The RCMP commend this young man for taking responsibility for his actions, and they encourage others to do the same,” the Burnaby RCMP press release states. Skolrood said some Burnaby RCMP officers were redeployed to

assist Vancouver police in Wednesday night’s Game 7 riot, but it was all quiet at public viewing areas in Burnaby. Skolrood said more local arrests are possible as many of those in the riot were from outside Vancouver. Anyone with information about participants in the Game 7 riot is asked to call the Vancouver Police Department at 604-7173321.

Back in fashion: Sandro Massullo of Massullo Music on Hastings Street, with one of the ukuleles for sale at his shop. The little four-stringed instrument has been making a comeback in the local area.

Ukuleles bring good vibrations The little four-string instrument is gaining popularity – suppliers can’t keep up with the demand Stefania Seccia staff reporter

While some people picture a luau or the recent ukulele covers of Radiohead hits by independent recording artist Amanda Palmer – there’s no telling why ukuleles have suddenly become the sought-after instrument of choice. “They’ve really taken off the last six months,” Burnaby’s Massullo Music owner, Sandro Massullo, said about his ukulele collection. “I think there’s quite a bit online available for them, for people to learn. They’re small, affordable – they’re a fad right now.” The 10-year-old music store on Hastings has sold the ukuleles on and off again but recently brought them back six months

ago. Since putting them on their storefront window, Massullo has hardly been able to keep up with the sales. “No one in the industry can put their finger on it,” he said about people’s sudden desire for them. “It’s a good seller. Better than guitars these days.” Although Massullo admits to not having mastered the four-string, sub-branch of the guitar family, he said there’s plenty of classes offered in the Lower Mainland. “For a while, the suppliers couldn’t keep up with the demand,” he added. In New Westminster, the Century House Ukulele Activity Group has been going strong with the instrument for the past three years. “It’s been really quite something,” said Shirley Miller, who started the activity group. “There’s been more and more interest in the ukulele.” Century House is a seniors’ community centre for ages 50 and up. Since the group started, it has offered programs for beginners, intermediate and has formed a performers’ group called the Century House Ukulele Ensemble.

The group, whose members are aged in its unique sound but also because it’s 60 to 70, started when Miller joined some painless to learn. friends in taking ukulele classes. “There’s only four strings, all you need With her background in playing the to know is three to four chords,” Miller piano, singing and folk dancing, it made said as to why the ukulele has become so her transition into playing the popular. ukulele easier. “Some songs you only need “They’ve really “It’s been going quite niceto know one chord. … You can taken off the last play anything.” ly,” she said. “It’s very good There are many opportunfor the brain and the soul.

Spring is a time of renewal. Hundreds of thousands of Canadians mark this rite of passage every year by raking, pruning and planting to make their gardens beautiful.Yet for the more than four million Canadians living with arthritis, the bending, stretching and lifting that gardening entails can seem daunting. Gardening is actually an excellent form of exercise that helps maintain strength and mobility without putting additional stress on your joints.The Arthritis Society offers the following tips for smart, safe gardening: • Always be sure to stretch and warm up before working in the garden.This will help reduce stiffness and decrease your risk of injury.

handles to avoid bending or stooping. Handles should be as long as your own height. • Pad the handles of your hand tools with foam to enlarge the grip. • Wear a carpenter’s apron with large pockets for carrying frequently used tools.

• Use raised ﬂowerbeds that allow you to stand or sit comfortably while you work. • Search for garden products that have been designed for people with arthritis.Tools bearing an “arthritis friendly” logo have received a passing grade by an independent third–party research organization. • Use tools that have long

Seniors

Aging in place means planning S I M P L E T H I N G S A R O U N D T H E H O M E C A N B E C O M E N E E D L E S S C H A L L E N G E S by Tessa Holloway Peter Simpson had never thought too much about where the plugs in his house were located until he had a hernia operation. “Just a simple thing like bending over to plug in my battery charger in my cell phone, I had to take my time doing it,” said Simpson. “If that power receptacle had only been about six inches or so higher, it wouldn’t have been nearly as challenging.” For Simpson, president and CEO of the Greater Vancouver Home Builders’ Association, it was a perfect example of why his organization is pushing to educate homebuilders on how to build houses where seniors can age in place. Simpson’s problem was temporary, but for many others, the location of electrical outlets can mean the difference between independence and relying on others. Seniors’ accessibility is also a concern being raised more and more by customers, said John Friswell, owner of the North Vancouver-based CCI Renovations. “A lot of (homeowners) have had homes for a long time and they’re now looking at their house and saying, ‘Wow, I’ve got a two-storey house that’s 5,000 square feet,

how am I going to stay here?’” Friswell took a four-day Certified Ageing in Place Specialist (CAPS) course provided by the home builders’ association a few years ago so he could advise clients, and said he incorporates many of the ideas into every house he renovates. That includes making sure wood backing is installed behind shower walls so grab-bars can be screwed in later, as well as lowering the height of light switches. He also can install contrasting materials so visually impaired have an easier time navigating or wider doors and larger bathrooms for easier wheelchair access, among other changes. He also said they try to install houses with deep closets directly above one another in case homeowners decide to install a residential elevator when they’re unable to use the stairs. Simpson said some seniors are also finding they want to live closer to family, which has prompted several North Shore municipalities to investigate the idea of laneway homes in back yards, so seniors Mike Wakefield photo could live with family while maintaining John Friswell incorporates their independence. “I think more municipalities should jump “aging in place” concepts into on board with that, but of course we’ve got renovations. some resistance to that,” said Simpson.

Tone up with housework Wether you’re scrubbing a winter’s worth of grime from windows, tidying up the garage or pruning dead branches, spring cleaning gives you a work–out at the same time. Movement is crucial in the golden years, and you need look no further than around the house for ways to add some activity to your day. For someone with arthritis, mopping ﬂoors and spreading mulch can be especially helpful, as these activities maintain muscle strength and ﬂexibility.

When it comes to managing arthritis pain, every bit of movement helps, including time spent doing routine home and garden clean–up. Physical activity protects joints by strengthening the muscles around them. Strong muscles and tissues support those joints that have been weakened and damaged by arthritis.

Bringing back dance to the city The pair are hoping that locals of all ages will come out for the dance, which is a collaboration with the Vancouver Irish Ceili Society and the Capitol Hill Community Hall Association. “Good things happen when young and old and in-between can be together,” said Ward. The first dance will be in the Irish ceili tradition of simple foot-stomping group dances with live Irish music by Gaoler’s Muse. The hall is at 361 South Howard Ave. Doors open at 7 p.m. with a minilesson at 7:30. Tickets are available at the door for $15, or $12 for seniors/students/unemployed, $5 for ages six to 12, and free for up to age five.

Get ready to stomp, swing and twirl in North Burnaby. A group of local residents have organized what they hope will be the first of a series of all-ages dances at Capitol Hill Hall this Friday, June 24. Ruby Johnson, 88, remembers being carried on her father’s shoulders to dances at the hall as a child. “No one had a babysitter. The kids came along and fell asleep at the back of the hall while the others kept dancing,” she said. She teamed up with Helen Ward, a fellow area resident who had been enjoying dances in Vancouver with family and friends and was keen to see something similar here in Burnaby.

TASTE Pack a picnic for Canada Day gatherings ON COOKING

Chef Dez

ow many people are tired of the same old picnic items? Do memories of bland potato salads and boring sandwiches persuade you to buy fast food or, worse yet, keep you locked indoors? Whether it’s a romantic picnic for two or a family outing, easy-to-prepare gourmet ideas will liven up your picnic basket for this holiday long weekend. One of the simplest things to pack for a romantic picnic for two is a fruit and cheese assortment, as there is virtually no preparation required. A grocery store with a delicatessen counter will be able to provide you

with a number of small cheeses and specialty meats. While you’re there, pick up an assortment of fruit like grapes, pears and local fresh berries, along with some gourmet crackers and pepper jelly. Wash the fruit but leave everything else in its original store packaging. You will want to pack a small cutting board, a couple of sharp knives and, if legally feasible, a bottle of wine. If wine is not an option, then juice in wine glasses will create the same seductive ambience. Too many family picnic gatherings are bombarded with the consistently usual potato salads and coleslaws. However, no matter what salad you choose, it will require some assembly, so one is better off expending that energy by making something different. The variations of salads are endless. A quick and easy way is to create one from the ingredients you already have in your

Continue to fill the bread with gourmet olives, sundried tomatoes, capers, fresh basil and oregano, salt, fresh cracked pepper and some extra-virgin olive oil. Put the top of the bread back on, seal it tightly with plastic wrap and refrigerate overnight with a cutting board and some heavy cans placed on top of it to press it all together combining the flavours. Dear Chef Dez: I always find potato salads bland. Any suggestions? Stephanie T. Langley, B.C. Dear Stephanie: I am so glad you asked this question, as I always use this as a topic of discussion with my students. Firstly, if you are boiling your potatoes, try steaming them instead. Potatoes being boiled will take on excess unnecessary water, and water has no flavour. Steaming them will help to prevent this,

plus they will cook faster as steam is hotter than boiling water. If you insist on boiling, then at least make sure that the water is liberally salted so the potatoes will become seasoned as they boil. The most important thing to do, however, is “taste” the salad. Dressings are usually prepared separately and then mixed with the bland potatoes. People are very careful to taste their dressings in progress and adjust the seasonings as needed, but we forget to taste the salad once it is combined. Always taste and adjust the seasonings in anything you make just before you are serving it so that you can assess it in the same form that your guests will.

Dear Tom and Ray: Goofy problem here: We were loaned a Jeep Cherokee by our daughter and son-inlaw while our vehicle is being repaired. With a catch, of course: It needed a “speed sensor” in order to pass the emissions test. We got the part, had it installed and promptly failed the emissions test. We were told that we needed to put 50 to 100 miles on the thing before they could retest the emissions. Is that standard for electronic (or computer-ish) parts? Is there some rationale I’m missing on that? Basically, I need to know so I can tell the judge why I’m driving without an inspection sticker. How are you supposed to put 100 miles on the car in order to get it inspected if you’re not supposed to drive it until it passes inspection? Thanks! – Nan RAY: Good questions, Nan. But your emissions inspector is right. TOM: Here’s how inspections work these days: A scanner gets plugged into your car’s computer port. That scanner downloads a bunch of emissions-related information that your car’s computer has monitored and stored. RAY: But if your battery dies completely, gets disconnected or the computer’s memory gets wiped out for some other reason (which I’m guessing is what happened in your case), the computer doesn’t have enough stored data to determine whether you should pass inspection. TOM: So when you drive around for those 100

Sensor needs details miles, what the computer is doing is collecting fresh data. RAY: For instance, the computer looks for engine misfires, which can increase pollution. If there are no misfires after a certain number of miles, it checks off that box. If enough miles go by and your oxygen sensor shows no faults, the computer checks that off the list, etc. TOM: Then, when you go back for your inspection, the computer can report that it has sufficient data in all areas. And if everything is working correctly, bada bing, you get your sticker. RAY: If there’s not enough data collected, or if everything is not working correctly, then you fail your inspection. I don’t know how it works in all 50 states, but where we live, you then get a temporary “rejected” sticker, and you have 60 days to drive around, humiliated, fix the problem and get reinspected. TOM: So I’m guessing that your daughter and son-in-law failed inspection a while ago because the vehicle’s speed sensor didn’t work. And their 60 days had run out by the time they handed you the keys. So when you failed, it was for the second time, and there was no longer a grace period. RAY: But keep in mind that rejection builds character, Nan. You’ll need that character when you’re doing your 100 miles on private property, rather than on public roads, to avoid a ticket. I calculate that’ll be about 900 times around the local Walmart parking lot. ◆ Which is cheaper, buying or leasing? Should you keep a car forever or dump it after three years, before trouble starts?

28 What scouts are saying 24 Juniors drop two more 25 7-on-7 tourney to Surrey SECTION COORDINATOR Tom Berridge, 604-444-3022 • tberridge@burnabynow.com

Will he be the first B.C. No. 1? Tom Berridge sports editor

If Ryan NugentHopkins gets his wish, he’ll have less than a 145kilometre drive ahead of him to make his NHL dream come true. The 18-year-old North Burnaby star has topped nearly everyone-who’sanyone’s mock draft list to be the No. 1 selection overall heading into the pro junior lottery to be held in Minnesota Friday and Saturday. That No. 1 selection in the pro draft is currently held by the Edmonton Oilers, barring any 11thhour trading. “It’s pretty cool obviously. I remember last year listening to the Taylor (Hall)/Tyler (Seguin) thing. Now, the same thing is going on with me,” said Nugent-Hopkins in a recent phone interview. “I’m really excited with my opportunities.” The possibility of being headed to Edmonton as the Oilers’ No. 1 pick overall has not been lost on the talented 6-0, 170-pound Red Deer Rebels centre, either. “Yeah, I’d really like to get drafted by Edmonton. They’re a young and talented team and they’re a rebuilding team. I really would like to be part of a rebuilding team and take those first steps towards getting better.” That is precisely what the slick skating centre did when he broke into the Dub as an under-age 15year-old with the Red Deer Rebels. Just the previous year,

Alberta bound: Ryan Nugent-Hopkins is the concensus pick to be taken No. 1 in Friday’s NHL junior entry draft.

Red Deer was languishing at the bottom of the WHL’s Eastern Conference. He was called up from the Northwest Giants of the B.C. major midget league for his allowable five games, and quickly tallied two goals and six points in his brief stint.

The following year, he helped the Rebels make a 23-point turnaround during the regular season, helping the team earn a spot in the playoffs, while scoring nearly a point-pergame, including 24 goals in his WHL rookie-of-theyear season.

This year, NugentHopkins, as a 17-year-old, finished third in league scoring with a league-best 75 assists and 106 points. He just turned 18 in April. Earlier in the season, Nugent-Hopkins captained Team Orr to a 71 win at the Canadian

Lakers to fourth with tie

Hockey League Top Prospects game in Toronto, setting up two of the goals while winning the player of the game award along way. Later, he was also named the winner of the CHL’s top prospect of the year. As a youngster, NugentHopkins led the Burnaby Winter Club to the Western Canada bantam championships on two separate ocassions, helping win the organization’s second of three titles in 2007. The following year, Nugent-Hopkins was drafted No. 1 overall by Red Deer in the WHL bantam draft, while also being named the B.C. minor hockey player of the year. Nugent-Hopkins has also represented Canada internationally at both the under-17 and -18 levels. At the 2010 Ivan Hlinka memorial u-18 hockey championships in Slovakia, Nugent-Hopkins helped captain Canada to a gold medal, while leading all tournament scoring with five goals and two assists. He also scored the game-winning 1-0 goal against the United States in the championship final, finishing off an end-to-end break up the right-side boards with a wicked snap shot in the first period. If Nugent-Hopkins is taken first overall in the draft, the North Burnaby product would be the highest-ever B.C. player taken in the history of the NHL. Coincidentally, another Burnaby product Ryan

The Burnaby Lakers got two key outcomes in the team’s goal to earn a playoff spot in the Western Lacrosse Association. The Lakers picked up an 11-11 draw overtime in Nanaimo Sunday, following an 11-7 season-series win over Langley at home. Transition runner Chris Manwaring scored the game-tying goal with just 16 seconds remaining in extra time to earn the valuable single point. Dane Stevens scored three goals in the final two periods to pace Burnaby. Rookie goalkeeper Dan Lewis backstopped the Lakers in goal. The three points elevated the senior A Lakers into into fourth place in the standings. On Friday, Burnaby wrapped up its season series against Langley with an 11-7 win over the Thunder at the Bill Copeland Sports Centre. Lewis recorded his first WLA win, stopping 46 shots, including 16 in the final frame as the Thunder fired 20 shots on the last season’s Minto Cup star in an attempt to get back into the game. “It’s great we got the series win against Langley,” said Lewis. “We were really ready to play today. We had a real crisp warmup.”

T-Bird with star on the rise kills at NHL combines Tom Berridge sports editor

When your star is on the rise, run with it. That is the position Burnaby Minor hockey product Luke Lockhart finds himself in just days before the NHL conducts its junior entry draft in Minnesota. In his third season with the Seattle Thunderbirds of the Western Hockey League, the Burnaby centre had a breakout season with the major junior club. Lockhart’s final numbers tripled over that of his last two seasons, leaving him with 21 goals and 48 total points, fourth-best on the last-place club in the Western

Conference. If that was not enough to gain the attention of pro scouts, Lockhart turned heads at the recent NHL combines in Toronto, which are held each year prior to the draft to test the fitness and stamina of the prospective pros. While less than 5-11 in height and just over 180 pounds, Lockhart scored well in a host of top-10 categories, including vertical and long jumps, while tieing for first in the bench press and pushups. “I felt really good and in shape,” said Lockhart. “Testing is the easy part in a way. … But basically it (shows) how hard you are prepared to work.” Lockhart’s final Central

Scouting ranking among North American skaters climbed five spots from his midterm posting of 73rd, and it’s possible that his star could be burning even brighter when the draft gets under way on Friday. Nevertheless, Lockhart is not expecting to hear his name called on opening day and will be staying home, waiting close to the telephone. “I’ve been working my whole life to play in the NHL,” said Lockhart, who expressed no preference in where he would like to end up. “Being a dominant, highly thought of player in the league is something I’ve tried to T-Bird Page 24

SCOUTING AROUND

He’s not everyone’s pick, but all agree on his NHL upside

yan Nugent-Hopkins is poised to become the first player from B.C. to ever be selected first overall in the NHL entry draft. Here’s a sample of what hockey pundits are saying about the gifted 18-year-old Burnaby centre: “(Ryan Nugent-Hopkins) reminds me of Joe Sakic in his thinking and ability. Sakic was one of those guys where it didn’t matter what type of game you were playing. You always knew you could count on him and you knew he’d make a play and make a difference, and I feel exactly the same way about Nugent-Hopkins. If the Edmonton Oilers want a player who can make Taylor Hall an even better player, then Nugent-Hopkins is that guy. … I think he’s a star in the making.” – NHL Network analyst Craig Button. ◆ “I don’t think he’s the type of player you draft and put right into the NHL, it’s his pro potential you want. That upside is huge.” – Ryan Kennedy - The Hockey News. ◆ “His skills are off the chart, this type of high-end talent isn’t as widely available among other draft eligible prospects.” – Gus Katsaros - McKeen’s Hockey. ◆ “His shot is underrated. ... It’s sneaky hard, it’s accurate and his release is quick. Add that to his creativity around the net and his upside is large.” – Mark Edwards - HockeyProspect.com. ◆ “He never takes a night off and he works as hard in his own end as he does in the offensive zone. It takes a special player with special skills to be able to do that.” – Peter Sullivan - NHL Central Scouting. ◆ “The Oilers are looking for elite skill, and there is no one at the top of the draft who possesses the same kind of upside as Nugent-Hopkins,” – Hockey’sFutures.com. ◆

Walter, currently holds that honour. Walter was drafted second by the Washington Capitals in the 1978 draft. But Nugent-Hopkin’s 60, 172-pound frame may yet be a determining factor in the final decision of NHL general managers. In 2007, an equally lean Kyle Turris, a New Westminster native, was the NHL Central Scouting’s concensus No. 1 pick but went third overall to the Phoenix Coyotes. Last year, Port Moody’s

Ryan Johansen was selected fourth overall in the player draft, while Vancouver’s Evander Kane also went in the first round at No. 4 in 2009. Nugent-Hopkins admits he’ll be sitting on pins and needles before hearing his name called at the draft but aims to take whatever comes in stride and just enjoy the moment. “Yeah, I’m very excited about it,” he said. Live coverage of the NHL entry draft is available on TSN June 24 and 25.

Lakers: T-Men back to decide series’ winner continued from page 23

Burnaby outscored Langley in all three periods, holding leads of 4-2 and 6-3 after the first and second frames, respectively. Laker newcomer Jon Thompson from Ontario scored on his first shot on goal and team scoring leader Colton Clark potted his team-high 13th goal of the season to give the home team an early lead. Langley drew even, but Burnaby quickly responded on Trevor Moore’s first of two on the night. The Lakers extended that lead to 6-2, when 6-5 rookie Scott Jones got credit for his first-ever senior A goal on an unassisted play. Burnaby built up a five-goal advantage in the final period. Rory McDade tallied on the Lakers’ first shot of the third period. Shaun Dhaliwal then sent Langley’s rookie

keeper Brodie MacDonald to the bench, firing his sixth of the year from long range at the five-minute mark of the period. Joe Bell came on in relief of MacDonald. Langley’s Andrew Potter tallied three times in the final period for the Thunder. But Burnaby kept up the pace, scoring three late goals, including and empty-netter and second of the game from transition runner Cam Bergman. Burnaby hosts the Timbermen in the third game of the regular-season series on Friday at the Copeland centre. Game time is 7 p.m.

Juniors drop two more

The Burnaby Lakers’ record fell to 4-10 following a 17-11 loss to the Delta Islanders at home on Sunday. The junior A Lakers were pelted for 14 goals in the first two periods.

Logan Schuss led Delta with eight points, including six goals. Jackson Decker and Alex Millin both scored hat tricks for Burnaby. On Friday, the Lakers gave up eight goals in the first period and sputtered to an 11-9 defeat at the hands of the last-place Port Coquitlam Saints. Burnaby rallied to outscore the home team in both the second and third stanzas but could not make up the shortfall despite outshooting the Saints 33-16 over the last two periods. Decker and Drew House led the Lakers with three goals and two assists apiece. Burnaby will face Delta and PoCo again this week, starting with the Islanders on Saturday. The Lakers host the Saints on Sunday at the Copeland centre at 7 p.m.

do. I want to keep working hard and work to make it to the next level.” Still, these are exciting days for young men like Lockhart, who are anxiously hoping to get their opportunity for a chance to make the big leagues. “I’m going to give it my all,” Lockhart said, adding that today’s successes will forever be tempered by the notion that somewhere out there is another young prospect just waiting for the opportunity to take his place. “Yeah,” Lockhart added. “That’s what I was working for, to get my shot.”

7-ON-7 PASSING CHALLENGE

Surrey high school bests the best at Big Kahuna skelly tournament Tom Berridge sports editor

Lord Tweedsmuir won its firstever Big Kahuna 7-on-7 Passing Challenge Sunday. The Surrey secondary school suprised the Nooksack Valley Pioneers in the tournament final,

riding the arm of MVP quarterback Michael Messenger to a 39-23 victory over the single A Washington State school at Mercer Stadium in New Westminster. Messenger threw five touchdown passes in the final game and also picked off one of two Pioneer passes on defence in the

first half. Tweedsmuir scored four times in the first half to take a 32-7 advantage over the Pioneers. “Usually we’re a run offence a little bit. But we did well yesterday and today,” said Messenger, who admitted the Big Kahuna title was a pleasant surprise.

For Tweedsmuir head coach Kurt Thornton the initial tournament win came on the heels of the team’s 5-1 record in a spring high school 7s league. “You do what you think you can do and some of our receivers are emerging. They’ve worked in the off season and their confi-

dence has grown,” said Thornton. “Every kid on that team was able to catch the ball and make plays.” Tweedsmuir knocked off fifthplace finisher Rick Hansen en route to the final. Handsworth and Mouat placed third and fourth, respectively.
