The Revelstoke Grizzlies, a junior B team that plays in the Kootenay International Junior Hockey League, raised $1,226 to help Bruin Stairs, a minor hockey player from Vernon who has some medical difficulties. . . . As a result, Troy Mick, the Grizzlies' GM/head coach, experienced a close shave. The players had agreed to shave their heads if they were able to raise more than $500, while Mick said he would climb on board if they raised $1,000. "Deep, deep down I was hoping they would get close because then we could still give them the money," said Mick. "But they went over-the-top and I'm more than happy to do it because it's for a great cause."
