While Edmonton Oiler Dave Hunter serves time in jail for drinking and driving (see Page 16), his younger brother Mark is headed towards his finest season since entering the National Hockey League with the Montreal Canadiens in 1981.

Game Remains Fun For Lindstrom
PITTSBURGH—The closest most Pittsburgh Penguins have come to the Stanley Cup is seeing pictures of the hallowed mug. There is, however, one Penguin who has played in the past three Stanley Cup finals, drinking champagne from the trophy the last two years as a member of the winning team. He is right winger Willy Lindstrom, whom Pittsburgh picked as the first player overall in the National Hockey League waiver draft for $2,500 from Edmonton on Oct. 7. “I felt like nobody was going to pick me up at my age,” Lindstrom recalled. “I’m 34 years old.

Flames Need Peplinski To Keep Scoring
CALGARY—Start with the premise that Jim Peplinski has what’s known in the trade as bad hands. Add the fact that Peplinski hadn’t played a minute on the power play all season. Then look at his goal total (17 in 53 games), compare it to what the rest of the Calgary Flames were doing and you realize what kind of a year the 25-year-old Renfrew, Ont. native is having. It took Peplinski a little more than half the season to surpass his goal-scoring total (16) of 80 games last season. So what’s the book on Peplinski? Good penalty killer. Good two-way player. Good intangibles. Good around the net? Good grief, no. Peplinski, who led the Flames with a plus-26, isn’t the best person to ask about his development as a scorer. Shrugging his best Pierre Trudeau shrug,…
