NHL Skaters Off on 70 Game Grind

New York The six teams in
the National Hockey league get
10 more shots at the four play
off berths this season.
The league, never one to play
60 games when 70 will do, is
underway with the longer card
for this campaign. The boys
won't be off the ice until mid-
April, when a Stanley Cup win
ner will be crowned. The regu
lar season runs until March 26
to eliminate two teams. The
other four scramble for the
hardware.
Toronto's Maple Leafs, who
finished fourth last season,
have won the Stanley play
offs three straight seasons.
Experts figure their chance of
holding on is excellent, and
also pick them to move up a
couple of notches In the standings.
The Detroit Red Wings, win
ners by nine games in last year's
regular season scramble, again
are tabbed for the top. The
Wings, highest scorers in the
loop in 1948-49, have added front
line punch in Pete Babando and
Jimmy Peters from Boston. This
pair will add depth to the team
in the forward line, where lack
of reserve strength was the chief
cause of the Wings' loss to the
Leafs in the cup finals.
Throughout the rest of the
circuit, trading has been lively.
Also, a new coach, Buck Bouch
er, has taken over at Boston.
All four of the other clubs are
depending on rookies in key
spots, and behind Detroit and
Toronto it will be a scramble
lor the other two playoff spots.
The Chicago Black Hawks,
weak at goal for more than 10
years, have immeasurably
strengthened that vital spot with
the addition of Frankie Brimsek,
since 1938 the regular goal
tender for the Boston Bruins.
Brimsek, although his sen
sational play for the Bruins
had earned him the nickname
of "Mr. Zero" for all the
shutouts he racked up, was
unhappy in Boston. He want
ed to play closer to his Eve
leth, Minn., home and the
Hawks obliged by shelling out -$25,000
for his contract, al
though he now is 34 years old.
"He still has the reflexes of
a youngster," says Bill Tobin,
owner of the Hawks. "And I
think he has three more good
years left."
To aid Brimsek, Chicago has
added defensive strength from
their Kansas City farm, and the
highest scoring minor leaguer
in hockey, Ray Powell, to the
forward line. In addition, Coach
Charlie Conacher has the Hawks
in the best early-season shape
of any team in the loop. Conach
er figures condition will be vital
over the long 70-game stretch.
The departure of Brimsek
leaves the Bruins out on a limb
in the nets. Rookie Jack Geli-

neau, former McGill university
star, will attempt to get new
Coach Boucher off that precari
ous spot. The big question is:
Does he have enough experience
for' major league goaltending?
Boucher thinks so.
Boston's Babando and Peters
went to Detroit for ace Defense
man Bill Quackenbush, who won
last year's Lady Byng trophy for
gentlemanly conduct combined
I with effective play. He was the
first rear guard man ever to
capture that title. Forward Pete
Horeck came along in the deal.
Several others of the old guard
are gone and rookies must fill in.
Montreal is the good field,
no hit club of the NHL. The
once-proud Canadians have
been skidding downward for
some time and will continue
that trend unless they develop
scoring punch.
At the Madison Square Garden
home of the New York Rangers,
Coach Lynn Patrick starts his
first full season with hopes of
landing a playoff berth. This
would be a distinct novelty in
the big town, where the Rangers
have been pitiful since before
the war, going as high as fourth
but once. The splendid Chucky
Rayner is back in the Blueshirt
net, and among the proven new
comers is Norman (Bud) Poile,
purchased from Detroit. Patrick
also is high on his rookies.
