Alain Chevrier In Chase For Devils’ Work
NEW JERSEY DEVILS EAST RUTHERFORD—Now or never came suddenly for Alain Chevrier. With a cast of promising young goaltenders knocking at the Devils’ door, the 24-year-old Chevrier realized that this year may be his last big shot at reaching the NHL. To his credit. Chevrier is making the most of his opportunity and is considered the favorite to back up Chico Resch when the regular season opens. “I almost have a feeling that I’d better prove myself in a hurry,” said Chevrier. the Miami of Ohio graduate who gained the attention of Max McNab last season while playing goal for Fort Wayne in the International League. “The Devils have four of the best young goaltending prospects in hockey who will be coming along in the next few years or so. This may be my…
Has The Goalie Gamble Paid Off?
LOS ANGELES KINGS LOS ANGELE—They went through goaltenders the way most National Hockey League teams go through sticks, and wound up discarding them in much the same manner. For six seasons, following the departure of Rogatien Vachon to Detroit for the big bucks of free agency in 1978. the Los Angeles Kings’ last line of defense was. well, utterly defenseless.

Let’s see, there were Mario Lessard and Ron Grahame and Doug Keans and Jim Rutherford and Paul Pageau and Mike Blake and Markus Mattsson and Gary Laskoski and Marco Baron. Lessard had a couple of decent years and Laskoski played about as well as a 21-year-old…
AHL New Era Protects Old-Time Records
The American League has seen many players come and go during its first 50 seasons of existence. And with those players, there were scoring and goaltending records that were established and broken, some several times over. But there is a handful of players that set some records that have stood the test of time. One such record is that of career goal—held by Willie Marshall, who tallied 523 times in 20 AHL seasons. That, according to Marshall, may be a record that stands for eternity. “I think that because of the way the game of pro hockey is set up today, nobody, at least anybody with any scoring ability, will play as long as I did in the AHL,” said Marshall, now 54. “Anybody these days who can put the puck into the net will…
