IIDO.

A crowd of 11.226 watched Can- ulsul turn in their most brilliant display of the series.

All goals came in a hectic out- burst in the second period, and fir; hero mantle again _fell to Gen-y Plamondott. The lelt-wlttg- q- rifled in two goals and almost equalled his three-goal hat trick that won the second game.

Mir/uric; Richard, playing a strong two-nay game, scored on l typical Richard exhibition.

Gprdie Howe, who has become Mir. Poison to Canadians in this series, scored the Wings’ lone goal. his seventh of the playoff.

Although Canadians sufiercd six of the 10 penalties, they made better use of man-power advant- age, Plamondonb first goal came while the teams were all even, but then Richard and Plamondon struck swiftly for two more while Nels Podolsky of the Wings was sitting out a cross-check penalty.

Howe scored while Canadiens were short-handed two men.

‘Throughout three periods oi spectacular drives, close checking behind the blue lines and rugged, bouncing body-checks, the mast- er-mindlng played no small part.
