SASKATOON – L.P. Dumoulin finally got the oval-track win he was looking for. The road-course ace from Trois-Rivieres, Quebec, came out on top in a wild green-white-checkered finish to the Velocity Prairie Thunder 250 Wednesday in NASCAR Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1 action at Auto Clearing Motor Speedway. Dumoulin and Joey McColm stayed out when the leaders pitted under caution inside of 10 laps to go to setup a dramatic finish on the .333-mile progressive-banked track. On the restart, new leader McColm get loose coming to the white flag and Dumoulin powered to the front. He then held off Jason Hathaway and Scott Steckly in a race to the checkered flag. It was the third career Canadian Tire Series victory for Dumoulin in the No. 47 WeatherTech Canada/Bellemare Dodge. His first two came on the road course at Ontarios Canadian Tire Motorsport Park in 2013. He also took over the championship points lead by 10 over JR Fitzpatrick. Behind Steckly, Andrew Ranger and Alex Tagliani brought home the top five. Like race winner Dumoulin, it was the best career oval finish for Tagliani. McColm salvaged a sixth-place finish, followed by Fitzpatrick, D.J. Kennington, Noel Dowler and Eric Thiering. It was shaping up to be a second straight victory at Auto Clearing for Steckly, who paced both practices and captured the pole earlier in the day. The defending event and series champion led the first 80 circuits from the pole and a race-high 153 in total. He had a commanding lead late in the race as he led 72 laps during an extended green-flag run -- putting all but five other cars down a lap -- before the final caution came out. McColm and Dumoulin had pitted much earlier in the race (Dumoulin on Lap 36) for their right side tires; drivers were allowed a maximum of two tires for this event. That left them out to fend off the challenge of Steckly and Co. on fresh tires. The race featured eight lead changes among five different drivers. Dumoulins only two laps led were the last two of the event. The Velocity Prairie Thunder 250 will premiere on TSN on Saturday, July 26 at 3 p.m. and on RDS2 on Sunday, Aug. 3 at 5 p.m. The Canadian Tire Series will return to action on Saturday, July 26 at Autodrome St. Eustache (Quebec) with the National 250.

Before the exclusion of the spin-o-rama play, most rule changes certainly werent made with a goalies best interest in mind. Smaller pads, bigger net, the dreaded trapezoid. But at least they can be thankful that the minor penalty shot rule from 1941 no longer exists. A shot which was awarded to an opposing team if a goalie committed a minor delay of game infraction.What is a minor penalty shot? The shooter was granted an open shot at the goalie from 28 feet out. Think a free kick in soccer without the wall. The shooter could skate up to the puck for their shot, so long as they didnt pass the line when they fired the puck. Brian Rolston may have wanted to lobby for reinstating this rule before his retirement.4. Goalies Cant Freeze The Puck - 1929(photo: City of Toronto Archives)There was a rule change that stated that goalies could not freeze the puck, and if they did it would result in a faceoff 10 feet away from the goal. And heres the kicker, during the faceoff, no player except for the goalie was allowed to be between the faceoff circle and the goal line. Thats right, if a goalie froze the puck, the ensuing faceoff would have all the players north of the faceoff circle except for the guy taking the faceoff and the goalie. Incredible! 3. Allowing Forward Passes - Rule Changed in 1929(photo: What Culture)This ones the rule that essentially changed everything. Hockey transformed from a bizzaro game of rugby, to the fast paced, higher scoring sport that is today. Youve got to think a rule like this caused a higher amount of offsides calls with the number of attackers trying to position themselves behind the puck. Not to mention the difficulty of correctly calling such a rulle, considering the speed of play.dddddddddddd You thought the flying V was useless before? Imagine how inffective it wouldve been with the predictability of knowing the puck had to be continuously passed backward. We gotta say, whoever originally came up with the idea of disallowing forward passes must have been a special type of Cake Eater. Tough, but fair title.2. Stand-Up Goalies Eliminated - Rule Changed in 1917(photo: SB Nation)In 1917, the rule that penalized a goalie for dropping to the ground was removed. Yes, this does indeed mean that prior to 1917, anytime a goalie dropped to the butterfly, his team received a minor penalty. Imagine how significant this rule change was and how the "hockey purists" must have been in quite the uproar. "How is anyone supposed to score with the goalies dropping to their knees like that? Youre ruining the game!" 1. Player Not Allowed to Use Goal-tending Equipment When Replacing Goalie - Rule Changed in 1937(photo: YouTube) Nowadays if a goalie commits any sort of penalty below a game misconduct, they still have the luxury of remaining on the ice and having one of their teammates serve the two to five minutes for them. However, before the 1941 season, this was not the case. If a goalie did the crime, he served the time.So what, right? You might be saying, thats what a backup goalies for. Well, before 1937, it was a position player who was tasked with replacing the penalized goalie and heres the kicker; the substitutes werent allowed to borrow any of the goal-tending equipment. No leg pads, no blocker, no glove, not even the stick. If that rule had still existed in up until 90s, wed have to wager that any team featuring Ron Hextall in net would be the most scored against in the league by a healthy sum.
