Frank Mahovlich of the To
ronto Maple Leafs admits, he
is finding it increasingly dif
ficult not to think about Mau
rice (Rocket) Richard's single
season record of 50 goals-and
with good reason.
Mahovlich scored a pair of
goals In the final period Sun
day night to give the Leafs a
4-1 victory over the Rangers
at New York. He now has
scored 33 goals and needs 18
more in Toronto's remaining
33 games to crack the Rock
et's National Hockey league
record
Frank had plenty of luck
Sunday night. On his first goal
of the game, which broke a
1-1 tie, the puck bounced off
goalie Lome Worslcy's glove
and ijito the cage. He scored
again late in the period when
his shot caromed off th in
side of the right post.
Rookie wing Willie O'Ree,
the only Negro player In the
NHL, scored his first goal of
the season midway through
the final period to give the
Boston Bruins a 3-2 victory
over the Montreal Canadiens
and the Chicago Black Hawks
blanked the Detroit Red
Wings,, 3-0, In Sunday's other
