Player - of - the - Week
TORONTO. Ont.— The Toronto Maple Leafs, the hottest club in the NHL at the moment, are all smiles over the play of big Frank Mahovlich. ‘Gutch’, as he is called by his teammates, has suddenly caught fire and is ramming in goals just like the experts predicted he would when he turned pro in 1957-58. Last week the Leafs won two more, running their winning streak to three straight. In winning two last weekend, the Toronto club moved into third place behind Montreal and Chicago. The Leafs burst the Chicago balloon but good last week as they trounced the previously once beaten Hawks 8-4. The win was a big one for the Leafs and it proved Punch Imlach’s point that the scoring power on the club is not dead, just dormant. Mahovlich, long termed…

Gordon Hitching Barons Go Go Wagon To Six Rookie Horses
CLEVELAND, 0.— Jackie Gordon, a stable loaded with raw recruits and some near old age pensioners, bravely faces the American Hockey League campaign that leads to the Calder Cup for the club with the right answers. But if Gordon’s problems appear many as he launches his fifth season as coach of the Cleveland Barons, he at least can gain satisfaction from the knowledge that he doesn’t have to worry about any of his players deserting the club as one Robert Alan Bailey did last season. Gordon’s Barons are either too old to creep very far away without expiring from the exhaustion of the effort or they are too young to be permitted to venture out unchaperoned. Actually Gordon is pleasingly surprised with the manner in which his agents have started the season. Opening on the…
