Player-of-the-Week
BUFFALO, N.Y. — Marcel Paille, the great Buffalo goaler, who was named the Most-Valuable-Player on the Bisons by Buffalo fans last week, proved them right in the first two games of the Calder Cup semi-final playoffs. in two full games, plus ten minutes of overtime, he allowed just two goals as the Bisons went out in front of the Rochester Americans by two games, in the best of seven series.

They won five of their last six home games and lost only four of their last 16 games here. They lost only three of their last 12 road games and won 15 of a possible 24 points away…
