Recognition Eludes Blues’ Big Man
Louisville Hockey Louisville Hockey ST. LOUIS—As of Nov. 2, St. Louis center Bernie Federko had scored at least one point in all nine of the Blues’ games this season. His streak was worth a note at the end of a newspaper story, but it didn’t seem such a big deal. Federko’s scoring consistency is something that you take for granted. With nine assists in nine games, Federko moved into a tie with Syl Apps for 49th place on the all-time assist list. With 13 points, he moved up to 55th place in all-time scoring. At 28, Federko hopes to reach two milestones—1,000 points and 750 assists—before retiring. Heading into this season, Federko had 640 points, including 414 assists. Federko is gradually bypassing some impressive names in the record book. The unfortunate thing is that his accomplishments…

Vermont, Yale Should Be Better
TROY—With most of the Eastern College Athletic Conference (ECAC) schools putting veteran teams on the ice this season, the adjective that’s going to be heard a lot this year is much-improved. Two of the teams that will definitely fall into that category are Vermont and Yale. Vermont, under the guidance of first-year coach Mike Gilligan, boasts one of the East’s top left wingers in senior Kevin Foster. Supporting Foster is a strong cast of supporting forwards, as well as good goaltending from three returning netminders, but the defense as a whole could be a problem. At Yale, Tim Taylor, who took a year off to serve as assistant coach with the U.S. Olympic team, returns just in time. “We had a sensational January and February last year,” said Taylor. “The players and the…
Bossy Dresses For Success With The Isles
LONG ISLAND—Mike Bossy accepts the adage that clothes make the man. In fact, he believes that a new wardrobe he purchased recently has helped him to gain the fastest start in his eight years with the New York Islanders. If that sounds strange, let Bossy offer his own explanation. “I don’t know whether or not playing in the Canada Cup tournament had anything to do with it, but I felt a lot younger when I walked away from that experience,” the 27-year-old right winger said. “I’m dressing younger now. I’m wearing clothes you see on 20-year-olds, and I don’t feel out of place. “I bought almost an entire new wardrobe when I got home from the Canada Cup. It wasn’t that I felt I dressed like an old man in the past, but…
