SPORTS SLANTS - By Ray Shank Dropped over to Detroit Olympia a couple of weeks ago to see my favourite team, Montreal Canadiens, scrounge a 3-3 tie with the host Detroit Red Wings. | say scrounge' because that's exactly what the Habs did. They were lucky fo go home with the tie. Good ol' Ken Dryden was in his usual top form be- tween the Canadiens' goal posts and thanks to him the Montrealers didn't flub it. Probably the only Canadiens who played heads up hockey were rookie Steve Shutt, who has looked better every time out of late, defenceman Jacques Laperriere and Henri Richard. Frank Mahovlich, Yvan Cournoyer and defenceman Serge Savard, who are supposed to be rated among the best in the league, actually stunk. Marcel Dionne, the No. 2 amateur draft choice last season behind Canadiens' Guy Lafleur, was outstanding for Detroit. That was the game he scor- ed all three of his team's goals ... and with afittle luck could have had two or three more. Dryden saw to it that Dionne didn't pad his statistics sheet fur- ther. | don't like the little twerp (Dionne), but have to admit he's a big man in that Red Wing organiza- tion. Matter of fact, NHL statistics last week showed that in his two season with the Red Wings (as of Sunday, February 25th) he had 151 points in 138 games = an average of 1.09 per game. That, NHL statistician Ron Andrews says, is the most points ever earned by a player in his first two NHL seasons. And at that time, the Red Wings still had 16 games to go. The previous record was held by Buffalo's Gilbert Perreault, who amassed 146 points his first two seasons. At the rate he's going, Dionne will pass the 100- point mark this season, eclipsing his rookie year total of 77, also a league record. Maybe you didn't realize it, but the three-star selections made after Hockey Night in Canada games this year mean a bit of cash. This season, for the first time, Molson's Breweries put up $7,500 in awards to be presented to the most often chosen 'stars'. The season was divided into five segments with the stars getting votes on a 5-3-1 basis. At the end of each segment, the totals were produced, and the player leading the segment received $1,000. The runner-up got $500. The November winner was Ken Dryden, Jacques Leamire won it in December and another Canadien, Peter Mahovlich took the $1,000 smackers in January . Two of the main prospects for Rookie of the Year honours in the NHL this season are Detroit's Henry Boucha and Chuck Lefley of the Canadiens. Boucha, a native of Warroads, Minn. , has been a popular fellow with Red Wing fans since he started wearing a sweetband around his head to keep his long, mod hair out of his eyes. Actually, it wasn't until he donned the band that people started noticing him. Now they refer to him as The Chief and the name is appropriate, since he is of Chippewa Indian descent. He wears white headbands for home games and red headbands on the road. Recently, they started sell- ing like hotcakes ... Lefley, meanwhile, is a grad- uate member of Canada's National team, a 6' 1", 185 pounder from Winnipeg. At last count he had 19 goals and was ranked sixth in Canadien's continued page 15 ...... IEEE
