Prince George, BC – Jennifer Pighin of the Lheidli T’enneh First Nation is the winner of the 2015 Canada Winter Games Medal Design Competition. Jennifer’s medal design was selected from 39 submissions from across Canada that were received over the summer of 2014 through the Canada Games Teck Medal Design Competition. “Jennifer’s design captures the essence of the 2015 Canada Winter Games,” says Stuart Ballantyne, CEO of the 2015 Canada Winter Games. “Her design will help us tell the northern story to thousands of athletes who will receive medals during the 2015 Canada Winter Games – leaving a legacy in both our community and with the athletes.” Teck, Canada’s largest diversified resource company and the exclusive metals supplier for the Canada Games, is providing the metal for every gold, silver and bronze medal for the 2015 Canada Winter Games. The majority of the metal is sourced from their metallurgical operation in Trail, British Columbia. “As a proudly Canadian company for over 100 years, Teck is honoured to help celebrate the achievements of athletes from coast to coast who inspire us through their dedication and commitment to excellence,” said Don Lindsay, President and CEO, Teck. “The medal design competition is always such an exciting initiative for every Canada Games Host Society,” says Tom Quinn, Canada Games Council Chairman. “The creativity of Jennifer’s design truly captures the Northern BC spirit and will certainly resonate with every athlete that will reach the podium at the upcoming 2015 Canada Winter Games in Prince George.” An artist and educator from Prince George, BC, Jennifer grew up near the Nechako River where she developed an enduring bond with nature—a common theme that surfaces within her work. Ms. Pighin holds a Bachelor of Arts Degree from the Emily Carr University of Art and Design as well as a Bachelor of Education Specialization in Art from the University of British Columbia. “As an emerging artist and member of the first Official Host First Nation in Canada Games history, I am truly honoured and extremely excited that my design was chosen from amongst many Canadian artists for the medals of the 2015 Canada Winter Games,” says Pighin. “We are all working hard and looking forward to hosting this event on our traditional territory and it is truly an amazing opportunity for Prince George to show all of Canada how we do winter!” ‘‘The opportunity to design the athlete’s medals for the 2015 Canada Winter Games is a rare honour for any artist,’’ says His Worship Lyn Hall, mayor, City of Prince George. ‘‘Prince George and our region are very fortunate to have a large number of talented artists to choose from, and Jennifer’s design truly exemplifies our region and the Games.

Ryane Clowe also scored and the special teams tallied twice on the power play and once short-handed as the Devils opened the post-Olympic break with a much-needed win if it wants to make the playoffs after missing last season. Patrik Elias added a goal and two assists and Cory Schneider made 17 saves as New Jersey salvaged the final game of its four-game season series with Columbus (1-2-1). Artem Anisimov scored for the Blue Jackets and set up one by Marian Gaborik. The Devils, who had the NHLs second-fewest goals (135) before the break, tallied three times in the 2:45 span early in the first period against Sergei Bobrovsky in taking the lead for good. Clowe got the Devils going with a shot from the right circle on what seemingly was a three-for-one chance. Bobrovsky saved his first shot. The second was blocked and came back to Clowe, who tallied his fourth goal of the season on his third attempt. Special teams took over from there. With James Wisniewski off for interference, Bobrovsky made an outstanding stop on a rebound attempt by Jagr. The 42-year-old Czech got the rebound and stickhandled the puck around the prone goaltender and deposited into the net at 7:31. It was his 18th goal of the season and left him one shy of becoming the NHLs seventh member of the 700-goal club. Henrique pushed the lead to 3-0 at 8:54 by deflecting an Andy Greene point shot with Ryan Johansen off for hookinng.dddddddddddd Columbus coach Todd Richards called a time out after the goal and it settled the Blue Jackets, who had been 12-5-1 since Jan. 1. Anisimov got the Blue Jackets on the board with a gift from Schneider. The Russian backhanded a shot from the right corner and Schneider lost his position on the corner of the net and allowed it to sneak in. Gaborik, who had missed Columbus last 22 games with a broken collarbone, cut the margin to 3-2 at 11:42 of the second period by knocking a puck out of the air and beating Schneider in close. The Blue Jackets had the better of the play the rest of the period and seemingly were in position to tie the game when Travis Zajac was penalized for hooking with 34 second left in the period. Columbus not only didnt tie, but it fell behind two goals. Defenceman Jack Johnson could not control the puck at the point and Elias floated an alley-oop pass over his stick to Henrique. He skated in on Bobrovsky and beat him between the pads for his 16th goal of the season. Elias scored into an empty net in the final minute. NOTES: The Devils, who were 0 for 12 on the power play in their last four games before the break, scored on their first two power plays. The Blue Jackets had killed off 23 straight penalties in their final five games before the break. ... The three-goal period was only the sixth of the season for New Jersey, one goal shy of its season high against Carolina in November. ...
