10 no Guardian. Charlottetown, Tues. Nov. 8. 1962.. SPORTS FRONT By PICS CALLAGH KN A Different Look THERE'S a far different look to those NHL standings as cornpared to one year ago when Montreal Canadians and to Maple Leafs were battling for first place. It’s hard to believe but it's nevertheless true that those Red Wings from Detroit are breezing along undefeated in their first ten starts. They own eight victories and two ties in that space of time and are riding away ahead with 18 points. five better than second place Chicago Black Hawks who have played two more contests. SATURDAY night. viewers got their first glimpse of the Detmtters and it was quite a look. The Red Wings blasted the Leafs 7-3 before a stunned Maple Leaf Gardens. With the score 2-0 in their favor, it appeared as mough the Red Wings were out to blank the Toronto squad once again. However. Dave Keon's two quick markers changed the com- plexion of things and for a time the Leafs took over in a big way. In the third period with the score reading 3-3. Toronto swarmed all over the league leaders and it was only terrific goaltending by Sawchuk that kept things on an even keel. Then came the break with the two Toronto defencemen falling and Gordie Howe, alway the opportunist, beating Bower for the Red Wings’ fourth goal. After that the Motor City gang went to work in earnest and added three more goals to their total before e final siren. A Winning Complex THESE Wings looked like a team that halt they weren't supposed to lose any hockey games. Keon’s goals should have I started them on the way down but they refused to panic. The : Leafs never did get a lead in that contest and that told a lot of the story. Supposedly tired after that struggle and with the trip back to Detroit to add to the hardship, the Wings probably should have been sitting ducks for Chicago Sunday might but things didn't turn out that way. Again the Abelmen comment. this l time by a 3-1 score. ' Playoff Seems Sure RIGHT now there‘s little doubt that Detroit has assured it- self of a playoff spot. They lead fourth place Rangers by 10 points and the cellar~dwelling Bruins by 13.

But though Rangers or Bruins have the necessary qualificaqu to overhaul the Red Wings. - Indeed Detroit could cling on to that top rung all season long. Leafs and Canadians are showing definite weaimesses and Chicago doesn’t appear to present any great problem to the present top runners. The Wings have spirit in great abundance and they are playing the type of hockey that is really paying dividends. Marltimers are delighted that Sydney's Parker MacDonald in doing so handsomely.

The ageless wonder helped the Toronto squad Mendously these past few seasons but his 36 goals against in 11 games hardly stamp him as a Vazina trophy contender this seastm. Tenry Sawchuk has 13 scored on him in 10 games. Johnny looked bad indeed Saturday night and don’t be a bit mused if he gets a rest at Imlach’s suggestion very, very soon.

Bower was last taken from the Leaf net while healthy in Dixon (Grab With little TORONTO (Cpl—Two years ago George Dixon saw his hopes for the Eastern Football Confer- ence s c o ring championship crumble in the last game of the season. This season he has taken the honors with fewer points and just a rustle of opposition. Statistics compiled by The Ca- nadian Press show the Montreal ties lots on 15 touchdowns in 14 games, 11 points ahead of run- neru Racine of Ottawa Rough Riders. -— Back in 1960, his first year with the Alouettes Dixon en- tered the last game of the sea- son ainst’Toronto Argonauts with‘ 108 points.
