Detroit Ace Prolific Power Play Marksman
DETROIT, Mich.— Parker MacDonald doesn’t qualify for a Q.C. after his name or a K.B.E. but the Red Wings’ Sid Abel might consider tacking on a P.P.E. before MacDonald heads home to Sydney, N.S., for the summer.

He blocks a shot and you remember Doug Harvey—back in the days when the only way to put the puck past Harvey was to send it air-mail. Pierre wheels from his own zone—and you think to yourself he breaks a bit like Carl Brewer. None of this is coincidental. Monsieur Pilote is a composite of do-it-yourself defensemen who have earned his envy and admiration. There is even a chunk of Pierre Pilote in the composition—because there are some things which Monsieur Pilote feels he does quite well. Unfortunately, he has been unable to add the chassis…
