Huskies Road to Allan Cup Finals Still Ranks As Most Exciting Season thecarillon.com HockeyTHURSDAY, MARCH 7, 2019 Comes HomeSPECIAL FEATURE Celebrating Steinbach’s rich hockey history Huskies road to Allan Cup finals still ranks as most exciting season by WES KEATING his weekend Steinbach will be one of the 25 stops on the Rogers Hometown Hockey cross-country tour. TThe community will host a two-day hockey celebra- tion that includes live entertainment and hockey-themed activities for the whole family. The event finishes up with an outdoor viewing party of a National Hockey League broadcast, hosted live by Ron Ma- cLean and Tara Slone on Sportsnet. As part of that Hometown Hockey Night broadcast, Steinbach will be profiled and local hockey stories will be shared. With that in mind, Carillon Sports Editor Terry Frey and former Carillon staffer Wes Keating have dipped into the archives to share a few hockey memories with readers this week. At the top of the list is the oft-repeated story of the Stein- bach Huskies and their amazing spring of 1979 Allan Cup run, which still remains, after 40 years, Steinbach’s most exciting month-long hockey event for players, fans and media alike. Since a Manitoba Junior Hockey League franchise re- turned to the community in 2009, the Pistons have been creating a growing, renewed hometown excitement for the game in Steinbach, the likes of which hasn’t been seen since the glory days of senior hockey’s Steinbach Huskies during that amazing 1978-79 season. When the playoffs come around, fan frenzy for the junior hockey team nearly reaches the peak (but only nearly) of the excitement the Steinbach Huskies generated in a Cin- derella season that carried them all the way to the Allan Cup finals in Sarnia, Ontario, 40 years ago. That 1978-79 hockey season was near the end of an era when Canada’s national amateur senior hockey champion- ship was not a week-long tournament, but decided by sev- eral rounds of playoffs, climaxing with east meeting west in a best-of-seven final for the Allan Cup. Ken Krentz hands the puck to coach Bill Heindl after scoring the overtime goal against the Trail Smoke Eaters. For the Steinbach Huskies, in their second season in the Central Amateur Senior Hockey League, that meant they coach Billy Heindl and when spring rolled around, the By now, Heindl had hung up his skates and traded in his would need to win a CASH League championship, just to Huskies found themselves on the final leg of a journey to Huskies uniform for an Armani suit befitting his new role earn a ticket to the ball.

  • The 1917 Allan Cup Championship
    The 1917 Allan Cup Championship From January to February 1917 four teams strived for the championship of the Thunder Bay League who would then play for the Allan Cup against five other teams. The four Thunder Bay teams consisted of the 141st Battalion, Port Arthur, Fort William, and Schreiber. Whichever team won would then be playing from February to March 1917 for the Allan Cup, won by the 61st Winnipeg Battalion in 1916. Due to last year’s winner being overseas, they would be replaced by the Winnipeg Victorias and the 221st Winnipeg Battalion. Starting on January 1st of 1917, Port Arthur was up against Fort William in a very physical game of hockey. Fort William stayed in the lead since the beginning of the game, only giving Port Arthur one goal against them during the whole Port Arthur News Chronicle game, and won with a high score of 6-1. January 2, 1917 After Port Arthur took the win on the fourth, the 141st Battalion went head to head against Fort William, again keeping the score tied for most of the game. Luckily they did not have to go into overtime and instead, while Fort William had a lead of 3-2 in the third period of the game, the soldiers turned the play around and scored three more goals within nine minutes left of the game, ultimately defeating Fort William Three days after Port Arthur’s loss on the first they had to play the 141st Battalion in a racing fight to win. By third period they were tied 2-2 and were forced to go into overtime.
