lake Sliudders But His Habs Could Break Records

By ,W. R. WI-IEATLEY Canadian Press Staff Writer MONTREAL (CP)-Coach Toe

Blake brought his Montreal Ca- naidiens back home Tlhursday and shuddered visibly when it was

’ suggested his club might break

a couple of National Hockey Le - guerecords. ' 1

At the rate they’re knocking off the opposition, the league-leading Cnadiens could do a real job of shattering the record ‘of total goals for a team in a season.

‘They could also be flirting, come - season end,_with the total-points

record onra wins,-ties basis. “We don’t talk about records;

they’re never a topic of conver-

sation by the players," said

-7.Blake, glancing ex-pectantly over

his shoulder for a prowling jinx and keeping his fingers crossed.

The ‘record of 236 goals by a team was set by‘ Detroit Red

_ Wings in the 1950-51 season. In

the same season the Wings

amassed a record total of 101 points. TREMENDOUS PACE

In. 45 games so far Canadians have scored 170 goals. At the av- erage of 3.77 a game-—if it con- rtinues-they would reach 264 for -the season.

At .1 the same time they have compiled 65 points on 30 wins and five ties. If they maintain their 1.44 average per game they hit smack on the nose De- troit’s record 101. -

“Anybody likes a record, of course, but we're not thinking about records now,” said Blake. “The time to talk about records is after you’ve made them.

“Our main concern now is -to win the NHL championship. We’re playing good, sound hockey right now. The boys showed they’re playing as a unit when

St. Dunstan‘s will present pretty much the same team that was nosed out by U.N.B._in last season’s championship race with the exception of high- scoring John (Honda) Kellly. The: Saints, however, will see something of their former Ace before the season is over as he is one of the Red Raiders high point getters this season.

BOSTON (CP)—Boston’s high- scoring Ukrainian line-Bronco Horvath, Johnny Bucyk and Vic Stasiuk-clicked off three goals Thursday night as the Bruins de- feated Chicago Black Hawks 4-3 to move within two points of third place in the National Hockey League. .

Bucyk collected a goal and two assists, while Horvath and Sta- siuk’ contributed a goal and an

. assist.

Their efforts enabled the Bruins to post their first home victory since Christmas night despite a stirring 43-save performance by Black Hawk goalie Glenn Hall. The Ukes, who have scored 50 of the team’s 120‘ goals this sea- son, tallied at 14:38 of the open- ing period when Horvath stroked ‘n a rebound from a Hall stop for his 19th of the season. ' Bucyk made the score 2-1 early

Early in the game Angie Car- roll nearly put the Royals into the lead. His hard shot hit ‘Harry Sterling, the Mt. “A” goalie and almost rebounded into the open net. Sterling pounced on the rum- mer just in time, to keep the game scoreless.

About half way through the period Whitlock scored the cutest tally of the evening. He picked up the puck deep in his own zone and went all the way through to fool Sterling.

The less experienced college‘ team‘ pressed hard during the. last ; few minutes of the period’ but‘ Roper kept them at bay.

Mal Joyce of Mt. "A” scored his teams only tally early in the second when he pulled almost a repeat performance of Whitlock’s effort. Joyce’s shot found its way behind Roper to tie up the game. Angie Carroll got that one back for the Royals 23 seconds later with what proved to be the winn- ing goal.

Art Perry put the Royals into a 3-0 lead early in the third when he found the corner behind Sterl- ing. Perry was standing at the corner when he received a pass from Angie Carroll. Carroll’s pass went «right across the goal- mouth.
