They placed second during the round-robin, defeated the Joliette Nationals by a 5–2 score in the semifinals, then defeated the Kanata Valley Lasers by a 5–1 score in the finals. At the Centennial Cup, the Flyers completed the round-robin with two wins and two losses, then defeated the Halifax Mooseheads by an 8–1 score to reach the finals versus the Winkler Flyers. Siciliano recalled in a 2021 interview that, Winkler was "a bigger and more physical team and wanted to wear their black sweaters" as an intimidation tactic. As the home team with the first choice of colours, Siciliano's Flyers wore dark red jerseys and forced Winkler to change into light-coloured jerseys. Siciliano felt that worked in his team's favour as Winkler took penalties early in the game, and his team won by a 10-1 score giving Siciliano a second Centennial Cup championship.https://www.chroniclejournal.com/sports/local_sports/flyers-finally-land-on-top/article_e4335e66-8119-11eb-b58b-635c904a3eb5.html Flyers finally land on top Annelin Tom March 9, 2021 The Chronicle-Journal Thunder Bay, Ontario August 8, 2021 Round Robin main WL Q none y League (Ticket) VER Vernon Lakers BCHL (Doyle Cup) THU Thunder Bay Flyers USHL (Dudley Hewitt Cup) HAL Halifax Mooseheads MJAHL (Callaghan Cup) WIN Winkler Flyers MJHL (Anavet Cup) STJ St. James Canadians MJHL (Host) 3 1 23 16 2 2 23 20 2 2 22 22 2 2 18 21 1 3 21 28 green2 Semi-final QSF QSF QSF QSF complete Results Thunder Bay Flyers defeated St. James Canadians 7-4 Winkler Flyers defeated Halifax Mooseheads 5-3 Vernon Lakers defeated Thunder Bay Flyers 5-4 in Double Overtime Halifax Mooseheads defeated Vernon Lakers 6-4 Winkler Flyers defeated St. James 8-4 Vernon Lakers defeated St. James 9-3 Thunder Bay Flyers defeated Winkler 9-2 St. James Canadians defeated Halifax 10-4 Halifax Mooseheads defeated Thunder Bay 9-3 Vernon Lakers defeated Winkler 5-3 for the Abbott Cup Semi-finals and Final Semi-final Semi-finals Centennial Cup Finals 1 Vernon Lakers 2 4 Winkler Flyers 5 2 Thunder Bay Flyers 8 3 Halifax Mooseheads 1 2 Thunder Bay Flyers 10 4 Winkler Flyers 1 Awards Most Valuable Player: Scott Longstaff (Vernon Lakers) Top Scorer: Scott Longstaff (Vernon Lakers) Most Sportsmanlike Player: Mike Figliomeni (Thunder Bay Flyers) All-Star Team Forward Scott Longstaff (Vernon Lakers) Michal Sup (Vernon Lakers) Glen Thornborough (Winkler Flyers) Defence Dane Litke (Winkler Flyers) Jason Wright (Thunder Bay Flyers) Goal Chris Burns (Thunder Bay Flyers) Roll of League Champions AJHL: Olds Grizzlys BCHL: Vernon Lakers CJHL: Kanata Valley Lasers MJHL: Winkler Flyers MJAHL: Halifax Mooseheads NOJHL: Powassan Hawks PCJHL: Prince George Spruce Kings QPJHL: Joliette Nationals SJHL: Melfort Mustangs See also Canadian Junior A Hockey League Royal Bank Cup Anavet Cup Doyle Cup Dudley Hewitt Cup Fred Page Cup Abbott Cup Mowat Cup References External links Royal Bank Cup Website 1992 Centennial Cup 1992 Cup Category:1992 in sports in Manitoba Category:1990s in Winnipeg Category:May 1992 sports events in North America
