OCTOBER 8, 1942

Gordon Drillon. slated to do his hockey chores with Montreal Can- adians this winter. is hitting the headlines daily these days. in fact has been ever since being benched in the Stanleypup playoffs against Detroit Red Wings ‘last sprung.

And here's how a Moncton col- umnist, one oz‘ Drilloris staunchest supporters. and rightly so. views the selling of the high-scoring right winger by the qbropto Club:

Whether or not the Leafs accept- ed young players. or sent Drillon to Montreal on u strictly cash basis. this 0iis:rvel' is convinced they drove a hard bargain. Leafs mah- agement would never let Drlllon izo for any bargain price. unless they figured he was throuzli.

Even then they would probably attempt a bluff that it was because he had fallen into their bad araces that they were getting rid of him. We still think. that they would have hung on to him it they had not fiz- ured the was

Somebody has said that the move should develop hefty into a. super star. He will have the incentive to hustle as he has never hustled be- fore. especially azuinst the Leafs.

Those ribald Toronto fans who used to give the big Monctonian the razzberry. even when he was scoring Leaf goals will now have ample opportunities to leer. prdbab will take great pleasure in riliril em up to fever pitch. Who wouldn't? ‘ . .

‘This is what Bnz 0‘Meara has to lay in the Montreal Star: Canad- ens ready t0 pay cash for Drillon didn't have to cough up but they will have to give several players lat- er on. These players will be agreed and they will be youngsters on Can- adiens reserve list. .

Drillon wore out his welcome at Toronto. but he will find a hearty welcome here. His type is well known. We had Nels Stewart who could score two for five in most games. Drillon the nrtistic. can do the same sort of thing. Drillon thouI-lh has somethint: that the Rift- ed Nels lacked. He can go full tilt from end to end and he has stick- hlmdling abiliiy.iii.no_ small degree.
