S. and Canada PHOENIX— Sandy Hucus soft-spoken approcah to coaching is paying off with a contender for the Western Hockey League championship. The Roadrunners, who lost first place to Salt Lake City Dec. 13 and fell as much as 10 points behind on Jan. 12, have caught the Eagles with six games remaining for each team.

• MONTREAL CANADIENS will be heavy favorites to win the Stanley Cup this year. Any team that lost only 10 games in 78 starts and finished 13 points ahead of their nearest rival has to rate a favorite’s role.
