The Express iced it halfway through the third with another 2 quick goals, and held the Terriers down until time expired.
Turris was the tournament's leading scorer (combined totals) with 7 goals and 6 assists in 6 games and scored the tourney's only hat-trick
. Dennis Morrison of Fort William was the Round Robin scoring leader with 3 goals, 5 assists in 4 games. Burnaby held Morrison to a single assist in the semi-final game, possibly the reason for the demise of an impressive Fort William squad.
