CALGARY —Mark Stone of the Brandon Wheat Kings and Brandon Gormley of the
Moncton Wildcats scored in Reds 2-0 win over White in an intra-squad game at the
Canadian junior hockey teams selection camp Monday. Dont a Hightower Jersey . Phil Di Guiseppe of
the University of Michigan and Philip Danault of the Victoriaville Tigres
assisted on Stones goal. Gormleys was scored on an empty net when White pulled
goalie Tyler Bunz for an extra attacker. Di Guiseppes point was his third in a
pair of intra-squad games. Red goalies Louis Domingue of the Quebec Remparts and
Mark Visentin of the Niagara IceDogs combined to stop 25 shots for a shutout.
Domingue turned away 12 and Visentin 13. Plymouth Whalers goalie Scott Wedgewood
posted a shutout in his half of the game for White, stopping all 14 shots. Bunz
of the Medicine Hat Tigers then gave up one goal on 28 shots in front of
announced attendance of 1,776. Mondays game had more pace than the previous
nights intra-squad game, but players fanned on scoring chances several times.
“All four goaltenders played really well and I thought there was more jump than
last night,” Canadas head coach Don Hay said. “Obviously wed like to see more
goal scoring, but the goalies played really well.” Tampa Bay Lightning forward
Brett Connolly played in the game despite a “lower-body bruise” he suffered in
the previous nights intra-squad game. He knocked Moose Jaw Warriors forward
Quinton Howden hard into the boards in the second period. Howden left the ice
bent over in distress and did not return. Hay said Howden had an “upper-body
injury” and that he would be evaluated Tuesday morning. Howden suffered a
concussion during the Florida Panthers rookie camp in September. Connolly said
he wasnt trying to hurt Howden. “Its a tough play. I was just trying to finish
my check,” Connolly explained. “I feel bad now. Hopefully hes not hurt too bad.
“Definitely I could have held up a little bit. I havent talked to him yet. Ill
go and apologize.” Connolly and Howden are two of four veterans expected to play
for Canada a second straight year. “I thought Connolly was finishing his check.
It might have been a little bit late,” Hay said. “We asked (Connolly) to play a
little more physical tonight and he did that.” Forty-two players were invited to
selection camp. Hay will release some Tuesday morning. Those who remain will
face a team of university players at night. Hays final cuts Wednesday morning
will determine which 22 players will represent Canada at the upcoming world
junior hockey championship. Stone, a sixth-round draft pick of the Ottawa
Senators, was a standout at the junior teams summer camp playing on the wing of
centre Ryan Johansen and left-winger Jonathan Huberdeau. On Monday, Mark
Scheifele of the Barrie Colts was his centre and Di Guiseppe played on Stones
opposite wing. “I was a little bit nervous last night and today I had a little
more confidence with the puck,” Stone said. “I got to the net a lot more tonight
and thats what I wanted to do.” Canada opens the 2012 world junior hockey
