Players of the Week
ONTARIO LEAGUE Doug Evans of the Peterborough Petes went untouched in the National Hockey League draft the past two years but the 20-year-old is intent on leaving his mark in his final junior season. The Peterborough left winger was a hot shooter as he turned in the first five-goal performance of the Ontario Hockey League season while racking up eight scoring points to win the OHL’s Player of the Week. Evans scored five times in a 12-4 drubbing of North Bay. Evans, who scored 31 goals and 86 points in 1982-83, was invited to the Hartford Whalers’ framing camp this season as a free agent junior where he impressed the NHL team. WESTERN LEAGUE The Toronto Maple Leafs may have selected their goaltender of the future when they drafted Ken Wregget in 1982. The 19-year-old Brandon,…

You Readers Tell Us Where To Go (Thanks)
After THE HOCKEY NEWS invited readers to fill out and mail in Reader Survey questionnaires from our August issue, one of the suggestions we received was to “publish the results of the survey.” Well, subscribing to the motto that it’s better late than never, here is a general summary of the results we obtained from approximately 1,500 surveys that were tabulated. • The average copy of THN is read by three people in addition to the purchaser, which means that our real readership extends far beyond the ABC audited circulation figure of approximately 110,000.• The average reader of THN is a male, about 27 years old with an average household income of $37,700.• The most-read features/sections of the paper are statistics. Ninety-seven per cent of the respondents said they read THN statistics,…
Team Canada Players Get Four-Day Vacation
On Oct. 24th, we return to Calgary from Vancouver after finishing one third of our 12-game series with Team USA. There is certainly not much to choose from between the two teams at this stage (one win for us, three 3-3 ties). The situation in Calgary is much improved. We now have permanent dressing rooms and offices in the Saddledome. We have a workout area with a Hydia Gym and a complete training room. On many teams it is easy to forget the trainer and equipment man. Our trainer, Craig Gattinger is a physiotherapist and extremely important person in our situation. The equipment man. Bill (Bubbles) Stefaniuk is also exremely important. As of tomorrow night we will have played 16 games in North America in 12 different cities. It seems we…
