The International Hockey Weekly Founded in 1947 Published by W.C.C. Publishing Ltd 85 Scarsdale Road, #100, Toronto, Ontario, Canada M3B 2R2. Rendez-Vous ’87 ONLY IN THE National Hockey League, you say… Where else but the NHL would the movers and shakers—Quebec Nordique president Marcel Aubut, NHL Players’ Association executive director Alan Eagleson and NHL president John Ziegler—announce a dramatic new all-star alternative format and then add that they’re sure the whole thing will come off once everybody involved agrees to it? Hey, don’t get the wrong idea. Rendez-Vous ’87, the proposed meeting of the NHL All-Stars and a Soviet club next Feb. 9-13 in Quebec City, is a magnificent idea whose time has come.

The NHL’s Power And Glory
They are members of a most elite strike force, specialists who analyze situations faster than most computers can do long division, mercenaries who can dissect a defense with the cool precision of a neurosurgeon. Their playing time is light, the physical and mental demands of their role heavy. They must focus their attention and react with the speed of a nerve impulse, or risk squandering an opportunity that might never return—all while someone is apt to be jabbing at them with a hockey stick.
