In fact here were very few-who could picture the Wings improving on pir last place standing of: last season. These expeets may yet be proved correct but at the present time, the Detroiters are plavine great hockey. Terry Sawchuk continues to sizzle In the Wings’ net and has scored on only 15 times in 11 games. That's pretty fair net- minding and has Terry far in front'of the nearest rival Johnny Bower, of the Toronto Maple Leafs. At that Bower has stopred in one game less than Sawchuk. a THE RED WINGS have relied on defensive tactics to keep them way up in the league standings. Their goal production in the 11 games is a mere 25 goals, the second lowest in the loop. Only the cellhr dwellers, Chicago Blacks Hawks, with a paltry 16, are lower than that: / Despite this apparent lack of olfenaive power. Sid Abel has his crew in second place, just four points back of the front-runn- {ng Montreal Canadiens. And if the Red Wings could win the two mes they have in hand on the Blakemen, they would be in a t-footed tie with the Stanley Cup champions.
