What does that mean as the teams prepare for the Stan- ley Cup finals? “Not a thing,” said Flyers captain Dave Poulin, who has sufficiently recovered from a knee injury and expects to take a regular shift against the Stanley Cup defending champions. “Take our record against Edmonton this sea- son and throw it out the win- The finals, beginning Tues- day night in Philadelphia, feature the young, defensive- minded Flyers (third-best in the league in goals allowed with 241) against the explo- sive Oilers, led by Wayne Gretzky. Edmonton is doing its best to figure out a way to beat the enigmatic Flyers. “They're a puzzle to every- one,” Oilers’ scout Ace Bailey said. “T've tried to pick them apart but I just can't. “You look down their ros- ter and start counting the guys who don't seem like much. I come up with 11. “I thought it might really hurt when they lost Brad McCrimmon (with a shoulder separation), but Eddie Hos- podar has been great. Those guys on defence take every- thing in front of the net and they beat you to the puck. The whole team is so dis- ciplined. And they work. God, do they work.” The Oilers lost 5-2, 5-4 and 7-5 during the season. They have not beaten Philadelphia in eight games, dating back to November, 1982. They fin- ished second to the Flyers in the overall standings with 109 points to Philadelphia's 113. The Flyers won home-ice advantage because of a bet- ter-interconference record. “Td say right now we're underdogs,” Gretzky said. “They deserve to be favor- ites. “They had an exceptional year. They played well, they played hard, we finished sec- ond. But I know one thing: we'll be ready.” In goal, the Flyers have Pelle Lindbergh, sensational during the season and more so in the playoffs. He has al- lowed only 29 goals in 14 games and has three shut- outs. Lindbergh led the league with 40 victories this season. His counterpart, Edmon- ton’s Grant Fuhr, has been less dependable in the play- offs. Chicago bombed him for 18 goals in three semifinal games. Fuhr’s entire career has run very hot most of the time, very cold the rest. He could be the key to Edmon- ton's chances of repeating as champions. Up front, the Flyers have only three explosive scorers — Brian Propp, Tim Kerr and Ilkka Sinisalo. Kerr, though, missed the entire semifinal series with Quebec with a knee injury and his status is questionable for the finals. The Oilers counter with a bevy of bombers — Gretaky, Jari Kurri (a 70-goal scorer this season), Glenn Ander- son, Mike Krushelnyski Mark Messier (last year's most valuable player in the playoffs) and Mark Napier. The Flyers’ defence will be undermanned because of Mc- Crimmon’s absence. Mark Howe, Doug Crossman and Brad Marsh have been spec- tacular all spring, but they may be wearing down from the extra duty. They'll see plenty of pressure from the Oilers’ forwards. If Philadelphia coach Mike Keenan is forced to play Hospodar and Miro Dvorak more than he wants on the back line, it could mean problems for the Flyers. However, Thomas Eriksson's puck-carrying flair could be extra helpful against a wide- open style like that of the Oilers. Edmonton's defence is led by Paul Coffey, the best at. tacking defenceman in hock- ey. FASTBALL ROUNDUP of SHSS set a record and Curtis Ready was fifth.
