Habs’ Big Goal Blaster, Cournoyer Eyes Ho. 200
MONTREAL— Yvan Cournoyer will soon be joining hockey’s 200-goal club, and, if he stays healthy, he’ll make the 50-goal-a-season group, too. The little guy with the big Shootin’ Iron started the season with 189 goals to his credit, then blasted two more in Habs’ opener against Rangers. His shot can be described in one word: terrifying!

That was in ‘68-69, when the schedule was increased to 76 games. He played them all that time and wound up with 43 goals and 87 points. It was his best NHL season. Friend and foe alike…
Ice Problems Foil Amerks’ Home Opener
ROCHESTER— The Rochester American: planned to have a whole new image this American Hockey League season after stumbling home in last place each of the past three campaigns. They had a new coach (Doug Adam), a bunch of new players and even a new emblem to replace the shield with stars and stripes. To help start everything off, Adam scheduled this entire training camp for the Amerks home rink—the War Memorial here. And he scheduled three exhibition games—including one against the National League Pittsburgh Penguins—for his home ice so the fans could get to know their squad before the season opened. But less than 48 hours before his skaters were to begin their pre-season workouts, the War Memorial floor was just puddles of water instead of ice. The condensers in the icemaking equipment wouldn’t cool…
