Lakers battle for win

The Fort Frances Lakers suffered a crushing 9-0 shut-out by the Thunder Bay North Stars on November 12, above. But they have been working hard, with more narrow 5-1 and 5-2 losses in a double bill against the Red Lake Miners over the weekend. However, they were able to put another notch in the win column last night, with a 5-4 victory over visiting Dryden Ice Dogs. - Allan Bradbury photo
