Out Of Playoffs, Bruins Plan For Next Year With Recall Of Woytowich, Gilbert From AHL
BOSTON, Mass. The Bruins, as usual, are waiting ‘til next year, and while they are revving their motors they also are trying to get a line on some of the younger players in their system. The remaining games of the season, in fact, will be dedicated to the study and appraisal of young players, which explains the recent recall of 22-year-old defenseman Bob Woytowich from Hershey and center Jeannot Gilbert, 24, from Providence of the American League. The B’s now have more than a dozen under-25 players on their roster and it is around them that they are planning for the future. “Woytowich,” says Coach Milt Schmidt, “has impressed me in the few games he has played and I’m going to give Gilbert a good chance to show if he can play in…
Stratton, Lunde, Hannigan Making Bid To Finish 1-2-3 In AHL Point Scoring Race
BUFFALO, N.Y.— The chances of any line finishing 1-2-3 in the individual scoring race are prohibitive, but with a third of the American Hockey League schedule remaining the Buffalo Bisons’ top threesome of Art Stratton, Len Lunde and Pat Hannigan is making definite gestures in that direction. At this writing, Stratton, Lunde, and Hannigan, the league’s hottest line in recent weeks, occupy three of the first four places in the scoring list. Stratton was on top in total points and assists with 66 points on 12 goals and 54 assists. Lunde, second with 63 points, led the AHL in goals with 34, and had 29 assists. Hannigan was fourth, behind Rochester’s Ed Litzenberger, with 54 points, 22 goals and 32 assists. A number of forward lines have placed two men in the top three,…
Habs’ Goaling Job Pays Well, Hours Good But Security Nil
MONTREAL, Que.— There was a time, not so long ago, when the goalie for the Montreal Canadiens was looked upon with will concealed envy by other netminders in hockey. That was in the days when the team was running roughshod over the competition, and Jacques Plante ruled supreme in the Habs net. While the Canadiens piled up Stanley Cups from 1955-56 to 1959-60, Plante piled up Vezina Trophys and the extra loot that went with them. His position was unchallenged. He brooked no sloppiness on the part of his defensemen, and didn’t hesitate to blast them if they failed to clear the puck. He instructed forwards on shooting techniques. And, if he didn’t feel well and couldn’t “go on,” somebody like Charlie Hodge would be hustled into the breach,—but only temporarily. When…
