Express Won’t Leave Home Without Savard
Louisville Hockey Louisville Hockey FREDERICTON—In a move that had been expected for most of the summer, the Quebec Nordiques have named veteran forward Andre Savard head coach of the Fredericton Express, their American Hockey League affiliate. Savard, 32, was introduced to the New Brunswick media two weeks before the Nordiques opened their training camp for the 1985-86 season. He replaces Earl Jessiman, who was not re-hired after two seasons. Although Quebec general manager Maurice Filion said that Savard was the only man considered for the job, the announcement was delayed until the first week of September because Savard spent the summer testing his injured left knee to determine whether it had healed sufficiently to permit his return as a player.

Petes Are The Club Most Likely To Succeed
Louisville Hockey Louisville Hockey TORONTO—Peterborough Petes pounded on the door last year. This may be the year they knock it down. While the Ontario Hockey League has gone through its yearly facelift—compulsory facial protectors, six new coaches, a new playoff format and the new 17,500-seat Copps Coliseum in Hamilton among the changes—some things never change. Dick Todd took his Peterborough club to the league finals with the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds last April and with 17 returnees and the playoff experience behind them, the Petes figure to be the class of the OHL this time around. Over in the Emms Division, Bill LaForge has been putting the finishing touches on his squad at Camp Hawk as he prepares the Steelhawks not only for the new Copps Coliseum in early December, but a run at the division…
