Penguins Failure To Beat New Clubs Seen Disturbina For Coach Sullivan
PITTSBURGH, Pa. — Foreboding thoughts that his veteran National Hockey League players might consider the league’s expansion division a pushover, have become disturbingly real to Pittsburgh Penguins coach Red Sullivan.

Meanwhile, against the competition of the established Eastern Division, the Penguins have played like a contender In the pre-expansion days. They knocked off the Chicago Black Hawks, 4-2, and battled the Montreal Canadians and New York Rangers to the wall before losing, 2-1, and 6-4, respectively. “Some of my hockey players feel the NHL’s new division Is not quite as good as the old division and they have taken it easy when playing the newer clubs, “Sullivan said as…
