McCarthy a Titanic loss for Laval
Laval’s winning formula is to turn every Quebec League playoff game into the clash of the Titans. The ingredients are stick work, fighting, elbowing-anything goes. But when you lose the biggest Titan of them all-6-foot-4, 238-pound left winger Sandy McCarthy-the Laval style loses much of its impact. McCarthy received a two-game suspension from the league for spearing defenseman Paolo Racicot of the Trois-Rivieres Draveurs in the opening game of their best-of-seven semifinal April 12. Without McCarthy, the Titan lost the opener 2-1, then suffered an embarrassing 10-1 loss on home ice the next night. The Calgary Flames’ Ihird-round draft pick in 1991 returned for ‘Game 4 April 17 but it didn’t make a difference. Trois-Rivieres completed the series sweep. “He’s a threat every time he’s on the ice,” Laval coach Bob Hartley said. “He…
Rejuvenated Lemieux key to playoff success
The week before the Chicago Blackhawks’ playoff opener against St. Louis, Jocelyn Lemieux was told by the coaching staff how important he would be in the series.

He also helped set the tone for the series with some fierce forechecking. “I haven’t been exactly happy with my ice time this year,” Lemieux said, “but this is the playoffs and it’s time to start fresh. We’ve had some great leaders play well for us all year but if we’re going to get through the first, second and third rounds, we need everybody contributing.” Lemieux and linemates Brian Noonan and Mike Hudson were the difference in Game I. The line was…
James’ fate now up to judge and jury
Swift Current Broncos’ coach-general manager Graham James will stand trial in Moose Jaw, Man., on a charge of assault causing bodily harm. James, who allegedly struck Moose Jaw Warriors’ fan Robert Sagal with a hockey stick during a Western League game Nov. 30. appeared in Moose Jaw provincial court April 13 for a preliminary hearing. The trial is expected to be held in the fall. James had originally been charged with assault with a weapon and assault causing bodily harm but after almost four hours of testimony by eight witnesses, Judge Gerald King dismissed the charge of assault with a weapon. The maximum sentence for assault causing bodily harm is 10 years. James, who refused comment, elected to be tried by a Court of Queen’s Bench judge and jury. He was suspended 10…
