The Hockey News
The International Hockey Weekly Founded in 1947 Published by W.C.C. Publishing Ltd. 214 King St. West, Suite 314, Toronto. Ont. M5H 1K4 It’s Deja Vu IF THE HOCKEY purists out there will permit us, we would like to take this week’s time and space to talk about football. Football, you say? Football in THE HOCKEY NEWS? Just what gives, anyway, you may be wondering? Well, during the last week of February, the football world, both college and professional (that includes the National Football League and the fledgling United States Football League) joined an exclusive fraternity and stepped up to its place beside hockey.

It came with 7:06 left in the game and the Hawks trying to hold a one-goal lead in the face of a counter-attack. Not only did Paterson deliver a…
Wranglers Moving Up In Standings As Coach Sauter Alters Game Plan
CALGARY—The Calgary Wranglers are benefitting from Doug Sauter’s Christmas excursion to the Soviet Union as an assistant coach with Canada’s national junior team. “I saw a lot of interesting things in Russia,” said Sauter, coach of the Western Hockey League’s Wranglers. “For example, I noticed the way different teams line up for faceoffs.” Upon returning to Canada, Sauter began inserting various nuances into Calgary’s game plan. And the Wranglers suddenly took off, moving from fourth to second in the six-team Eastern Division. One thing Sauter did was change the way his club lines up for faceoffs in the offensive zone. He started spreading three forwards and a defenseman across the middle, leaving one defenseman back on the blueline. The center pulls the puck over to the boards, the winger flips it back to…
