One thing that Scar Bealey prides himself on is being clutch when it matters most. Throughout his career in house leagues, travel leagues, and juniors (before the SMJHL that is), he always got “up” for the big games. Games against rival teams, games against the top teams in the league, and more importantly, playoff games. Last year in the playoffs against Maine, Scar finished with 0 points and was a -9 as the Timber swept the Scarecrows. Scar vowed that would never happen again in his lifetime. He got a rematch with the Timber in this year’s playoffs, and while Maine leads St. Louis 3-1 in the series (as of press time), Maine had to win 2 games in OT and this series could be 3-1 in the Crows’ favor. And how is Scar doing? Well, he took it personally. Scar has 9 points in the 4 games so far, leading the Scarecrows (and the SMJHL) in playoff points. Using past failures was a big thing he used to fuel himself to break out in this postseason, and his desire to be the best really brought out a new level in him as he does everything he can to (hopefully) get the Scarecrows into the next level of the playoffs.
