Orr wrote a letter, thanking Parksville Mayor Ed Mayne for initiating a friendly wager that the loser of the Vancouver Island Junior Hockey League championship between the Oceanside Generals and the Peninsula Panthers would wear the victorious team’s jersey and fly the flags of the winning municipalities.
