Keon guided a slider pasti Montreal goalie Jacques Plante at 16:35 of the second period to put Leafs ahead for good. "I was cutting in with (Terry) Harper pushing by elbow." said Keon, "I tried to move the puck out front but. didn’t have enough control. I just had enough control left to sort 0 steer it in.

It was only Canadiens’ third shot until that time. But the lead lasted only 47 seconds. Armstrong tying the score with his second goal of the series. The Leafs captain took the puck from a pileup in front of the Montreal net and drilled a 15-foot shot into the cage. Stanley put the Leafs ahead 2-1 early in the second with his first playoff goal with the Leafs t 41 , mes. spanning five Stanley Cup seasons, and only his sixth in 65 playoff games. Harper and Richard com- bined on a pretty passing play to score Montreal's final goal. Harper carried the puck into the Leafs end. passed to Rt- chard and went into the faceoff circle to the right Bower. Richard then passed back to Harper. who tired a 15-footer into the net on Bower's right.

' In the final analysis the Canadiens didn't get the breaks. especially in the final period when the puck didn't bounce their way at times and Leafs defender-s often happened to get the way at the right time. Only casualty of the game was Canadiens' Gilles Trem- blay. who suffered a cut from Pulford's elbow on the inside of his upper lip. Club officials and Tremblay said after the game that he'll probably play Satur- day. SUMMARY First period: 1. Bellveau 1 6:07; 2. Toronto. Armstrong 2 6:54. Penalties— Mahovlich 2:45. Gauthier 14:54.
