Ukes Back In Harness With Vic As Bruins New Take Charge Guy
BOSTON, Mass.— As everyone who can hear or read knows well, hockey players were at their absolute toughest in the good old days. But the Boston Bruins seem to think Vic Stasiuk hairy-chested, iron-skinned and durable enough to be classified as tough, too. Stasiuk’s qualification is having played some of his best hockey of the season with 19 stitches holding the right side of his head together. The only playing time Stasiuk missed was that required for repairs in a Chicago hospital.

A little elaboration, professor. “I figured we had to win 25 of our last 35 games.” ‘ “That’s a tidy sum, even for an optimist like you.” “Don’t forget,” Dean put in, “we always play our best on the road.” “That’s right,” noted trainer Frank Paice. “Here I’ll show you.” And he pulled out a wad of…

MONTREAL, Que.— Hull-Ottawa Canadiens and Sault Ste. Marie Thunderbirds are the two teams doing most to foster young talent that bears an imprint of future major league quality in the opinion of T-Birds’ generalmanager, Bob Wilson. Canadiens, it scarcely need be explained, masterminded by Sammy Pollock, are the Eastern Pro Loop’s link in NHL Canadiens big farm operation, while the T-Birds are sponsored by Chicago Black Hawks. Wilson, veteran scout with Chicago Hawks’ whose name has become a by word in hockey on the international scene, moved in to the Soo after the EPHL season was well underway. When the high command in Chicago decided they needed more direct supervision in their EPHL project. One of his first moves was to replace Don Grosso, the coach, by Gerry Brown, who had a background of…
