Corrigan Off Regular Shift
LOS ANGELES— Developing rapidly. Don Kozak has taken Mike Corrigan’s place on right wing with the Bob Berry-Juha Widing duo on the Kings. Two seasons back, Berry was beaten out by Corrigan, 36 goals to 37, for the team’s single, season scoring record. but Corrigan is playing only in spots now. He knows the coach can’t change a winning lineup, so he is working hard, practising patience and not popping off while waiting for his chance to win back a regular role. The most explosive player on the team, Butch Goring, has been waiting three weeks since recovering from an injury fora regular role, but coach Bob Pulford just doesn’t want to tamper with what is winning for him. Pulford would like to find a place for young spare defender Neil Komadoski,…

PHILADELPHIA — The nickname-happy Flyers have a new handle for Bill Clement: Meet “Two-Goal” Clement, as in “Two-Gun”. Shooting the puck like never before. Clement had three two-goal games despite not dressing for five of the first 16 outings. Last season, when the promising young forward suited up for just half the Flyers’ regular season games some irreverent Philadelphia writers gave him another nickname: “Runway Bill”. Clement spent many games standing in runways at NHL arenas wearing civilian clothes and a forlorn expression. On their charge to the Stanley Cup the Flyers seemed to be passing by Clement, who not long ago was branded “The next Flyers’ super star” by GM Keith Allen. Of course, Allen never guessed that Rick MacLeish would emerge as a 50-goal scorer. MacLeish took one centerman’s job behind…
