October 15, 2015 · 0 Comments

Rick Agar showed last Monday why the Jiffy Lube Oilers missed him dearly while he was tied up with other hockey obligations.
He made his season debut with two goals to lead Jiffy Lube to their first win of the Caledon Senior Hockey League season, a 5-4 squeaker over Heart Lake Insurance. In the other games, Rutherford Global Logistics grabbed first place by virtue of a last-minute 5-5 tie with Yale Industrial Trucks combined with a 4-2 loss by Bolton Chiropractic Centre to Fines Ford Lincoln.
