Rockettes lose in semi-final By CasNews Staff Mallardville of Coquitlam dumped Spring Valley of Kelowna 155 and 156 to capture the Mount Sentinel junior girls volleyball tourn. ament at Stanley Humphries secondary school over the weekend. The Stanley Humphries Rockettes lost a best-out-of- three semi-final to Spring Valley. Other teams taking part in the tournament were McNeil Park of Penticton, Parkland of Sidney and Mt. Sentinel. Sherry McKoetoff of SHSS and Marla Verigin of Mt. Sentinel were picked as two QUEBEC SHAKEN DOWN Adams’ defence strong By TERRY SCOTT The Canadian Press The most significant developments in the Adams Division in the off-season occurred in Quebec City, where the Nordiques replaced head coach Michel Bergeron, and in Buffalo, where the Sabres pinned their hopes on the arrival of centre Pierre Turgeon, the No. 1 pick in the National Hockey League draft last June. ‘The cocky and colorful Bergeron bolted Quebec, where he was the bench boss for seven years, to accept similar employment with the Rangers in New York. His successor, Andre Savard, at 34 is the youngest coach in the NHL. Like Savard, Turgeon has skeptics. He was named the top player in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League last year, with 69 goals and 85 assists in 69 games, but some scouting reportings questioned his work ethics. The three teams that finished ahead of Quebec and Buffalo in the Adams Division standings made few moves, and it's reasonable to assume the Hartford Whalers, Montreal Canadiens and Boston Bruins will maintain their standing of last season, with the Nordiques and Sabres battling for a final playoff berth. The five teams, in order of their 1986-87 finish: Hartford Whalers (43-30-7). The return to form of goaltender Mike Liut (8.23 goals against in 59 games) was a major factor in the Whalers’ first division title last year, after finishing no better than fourth in eight previous seasons. A more confident Liut, has been helped by an un- heralded but efficient defence, headed by veteran Dave Babych and Dana Murzyn, 20, a youngster with a fine future. The Whalers had three players — defenceman Scot Kleinendorst and forwards Kevin Dineen and Slyvain Turgeon — injured in the Canada Cups tournament, but all are expected to be ready to open the season. Dineen, one of the game's better grinders, led all Hartford players with 40 goals last year and was second to centre Ron Francis in points. The Whalers had eight players with at least 20 goals last season, including Turgeon, who missed half the season with a stomach ailment. A healthy Turgeon is capable of joining Dineen as a 40-goal man. Montreal Canadiens (41-29-10). A team that was known years ago for its strength down the centre, now excels because of the strength and depth of its defence. That depth will be put to a severe test this season, with Larry Robinson, the gracefully-aging anchor of the blueline brigade, out until at least the end of November with a broken leg from an off-season polo mishap. In Chris Chelios, Rick Green and Craig Ludwig (following a rejuvenated playoff performance), the Can- adiens are still solid defensively, but they'll need improved efforts from Petr Svoboda, Gaston Gingras and Mike Lalor. The goaltending is in capable hands with Patrick Roy and Brian Hayward, the league's top tandem last season. The Montreal defence extends to its forwards, who make things happen with their close-checking style. The team still lacks a sniper, but Mats Naslund figures to score from torn ligaments in his ankle in the Canada Cup. Boston Bruins (39-84-7). ‘The Bruins had two picks in the first round of last June's amateur draft and used both to grab defencemen — Glen Wesley and Stephane Quintal. That says a lot about the Bruins, who led the division in scoring in 1966-87 but yielded too much behind the blueline. Of the top draft selections, Wesley is the most likely to stay, and the Bruins are counting on a comeback by Gord Kluzak, the No. 1 pick overall in 1982 who has missed two full seasons in the last three because of knee surgery. ‘The Bruins also moved to strengthen their goaltending by signing free agent Rejean Lemelin, a nine-year veteran who had a 8.56 goals-against average in 34 games with the Calgary Flames last year. Boston may open the season without veteran defence- man Reed Larson, nara ina salary dispute that caused him to miss training cam Quebec Nordiques (81-39-10). ‘The changes here weren't only in the coaching ranks. Veteran centre Dale Hunter, described by many as the blood and guts of the club, is gone, as is John Ogrodnick and goaltender Clint Malarchuk. Hunter and Malarchuk were sent to, the Washington Capitals for left winger Gaetan Duchesne and centre Alan Haworth, Combined, they're bound to score more than the 10 goals Hunter produced in an injury-plagued season. John Ogrodnick, the disgruntled forward who wanted a trade, was sent Wednesday to the New York Rangers along with defenceman David Shaw for forward Jeff Jackson and defenceman Terr Carkner. It is the defence that has Nordiques general manager Maurice Filion swelled with pride. He calls it “the best defence in our history.” He's probably right, with Canada Cup star Normand Rochefort and the seasoned Robert Picard and Randy Moller joining forces with talented youngsters like Steve Finn and Jeff Brown. With Malarchuk gone, much of the goaltending load falls to Mario Gosselin. And there is some doubt about whether he has the stamina to play more than 40 games. Behind him are Richard Sevigny and two rookies battling for a backup job, Ron Tugnutt and Mario Brunetta. Buffalo Sabres (28-44-8). Just when head coach Ted Sator was being hailed as miracle man last year, the Sabres self-destructed. Sator replaced Scotty Bowman last Dec. 22 and brought the club from an 18-point deficit fo a neck-and-neck struggle with the Nordiques for the last playoff spot by mid-March. Then the Sabres faded. Strike produces new players Aas ORM A SPORTS he ea October7, 1967 Castlegar News Semenko knows role with Leafs By NEIL STEVENS TORONTO (CP) -- Big Dave Semenko has no illusions about his role with the Toronto Maple Leafs. “I don’t know what label to use, but my role has been the same wherever I've played,” he says. “I go up and down my wing in an aggressive style. “When things get out of hand I step in and cool things down.” On Monday, the Leafs:signed Semenko to a one-year contract, with an option year. On Tuesday, head coach John Brophy said Semenko will start the NHL season Thursday night against the Blackhawks in Chicago on a fourth line with Vincent Damphousse and Dan Daoust. 8 says he i to be enthused about being an enforcer. The battles haven't dented his desire. t's something I've been doing for years. You know, people in the dressing room and people who know you, they appreciate what you're doing. “They don’t think you're an idiot because you do something like that or think less of you because that's your role.” Semenko played 7" seasons in Edmonton before the Oilers traded him to the Hartford Whalers last Dec- ‘ember, He, rented an apartment oan! igerramacelyed for the rest of the winter and 1977-18 when they were ‘in the old World Hockey the summer. He was ready to return to Hartford when word came that he'd been traded again. “I was surprised,” he says of his reaction to the trade to the Leafs that sent defenceman Bill Root to the Whalers, “I thought Hartford would try to trade me during the offseason and I thought a week before training camp that if nothing had happened by then I'd be back there. “Then all of a sudden, about two days before camp was to open, I got the call. 1 was.really happy to be coming here. I've always liked Toronto, “And I knew the type of coach Brophy was and I played in Edmonton with (Leaf assistance coach) Garry Lariviere. I knew my style would fit in here.” Raised in Winnipeg, Semenko, 30, is a left winger who has averaged about 150 minutes in penalties a year, mostly for fighting. His highest offensive production in any one NHL season is 12 goals. ‘The six-foot-three, 200-pounder played juntor hockey in Brandon, Man., before turning pro with the Oilers in ‘The Minnesota North Stars, who had originally draft him in 1977, reclaimed his\rights when Edmonton was admitted to the NHL in 1979, Minnesota immediately traded him back to Edmonton for the Oilers’ second- and third-round draft picks in 1979. OBTAINS BROTEN The North Stars used those picks to obtain Neal Broten, who has since become a key member of their team, and Kevin Maxwell, who no longer plays, For years, Semenko’s major role was making sure opposing heavyweights didn’t harrass Edmonton star Wayne Gretzky. With the Leafs, he'll attempt to deflect physical abuse of puck artists such as Russ Courtnall. The move from Edmonton was tough, he says, adding that he has an open invitation from the Oilers to work for the team when he retires. But that will not be for a while, he hopes. “When I came into the NHL, it wasn't long after that teams started to go for bigger players. Today, everybody is in better shape. Your fitness, your diet, everything is really monitored now. more than the 25 goals he had last year.

Lasorda, who turned 60 last month, has been a member of the Dodgers’ or- ganization for 38 years and recently completed his 11th year as the club’s manager. In addition, the Dodgers announced that executive vice-president Fred Claire would continue to handle the duties involving player per- sonnel for the team. “Tm coming back because Peter (O'Malley) wants me back. I love managing,” Las- orda said at a Dodger Stad- jum new conference. “I can't wait to go to spring training.

Both made their marks last Sunday in the Bears’ 35-3 victory over the Philadelphia Eagles. Hohensee, a former Uni- versity of Minnesota quar- terback who previously played with the Toronto Argonauts and Ottawa Rough Riders in the CFL, threw touchdown passes in the first half and Althoff, a tackle from Winona State, was the defensive standout of the game. “Don't ask me why people overlooked them,” said head coach Mike Ditka, Mid-Week Wrap-up Sets Current moted to a front-office posi- Toner tion or removed as manager.

During the slide, the defending Grey Cup champions have averaged fewer than 20 points a game while opposing teams were scoring Two months ago the Tiger-Cats had a 6-3 record and were tied with the Blue Bombers atop the Canadian Football League's Eastern Division. The team now is 6-7. In the last four games the Ticats have given up four fumbles, 11 interceptions and lost the ball seven times on downs — an average of five turnovers a game. On the takeaway side, the Ticat defence has picked off 30 passes, recovered 12 fumbles and taken the ball away on downs six times. RATING SLIPS That leaves the team with minus-10 in the give- away-takeaway department. They finished last season at plus-10 — second only to the B.C. Lions. “They're (interceptions) not things you,can easily contral,”,.said Schmitz, who was made interim head coach last week after Al Bruno suffered a mild heart attack. “Sometimes your quarterback is hot and sometimes he's not. "when he's not, you're in big trouble.” During the Ticat's early-season win streak Tom Porrs had the league's highest efficiency rating of 87.5 per cent. The rating is based on pass-completion per- centage, average gain per pass, lowest percentage of interceptions and a highest percentage of touchdown passes. Porras now is second with a respectable 79.8 per cent, less than two percentage points behind B.C.’s Roy Dewalt, and thus can’t bear all the blame. He has also hared quarterbacking duties with Mike Kerrigan the last four games. The Hamilton passing offence has been under pressure due to an injury-riddled offensive line and a poor running game before Johnnie Jone’s 91-yard effort in Sunday game. LOSE POINTS In the win over Hamilton, the Blue Bombers picked off four passes and returned two for touchdowns. They recovered a fumbled punt and took it in for another converted TD. That made 21 points given away by the Ticats. “The score should have been about 19-14,” said Schmitz after reviewing films. “That's still a loss but far less embarrassing than 47-14.” Despite deflecting criticism from his quarterbacks, Schmitz is considering Ken Hobart as a backup in Sunday's home gain against the Saskatchewan Rough- riders. The third-year quarterback has been out of action since the second game with a broken leg and torn tendons. Hobart says he’s ready by Schmitz is taking a wait-and-see approach. “It'll be a medical decision,” said Schmitz. “We wouldn't do anything that could ruin his eareer.” TORONTO COACH No pressure on Brophy TORONTO (CP) — “What pressure?” Job security? “T've coached in a lot of different leagues and I've never been fired. I don't worry about it.” Nothing seems to jolt head coach John Brophy, unless it's less than a 100-per-cent effort on the ice from his Toronto Maple Leafs or an enforcer-type from an opposing team intentionally fouling one of his players. At 53, the snowy-haired coach conducts himself as if he'd been in the National Hockey League for 20 years when, in fact, he is beginning only his second year as a head coach in the league. Did he learn anything in his first season? “Not a thing,” he says. “I'd already coached against at least one-third of the coaches in this league and I'd coached quite a few of the players on the other teams. “There's not a lot of difference between coaching in the NHL and coaching in any other league. You go out and try to win. Of course, it helps when you have good players.” PLANS TO STAY Brophy signed for three more years with the Leafs last June. After a 21-year playing career in minor-pro leagu Brophy began coaching in the mid-1970s at Hampton, Va., and then with the Cincinnati Stingers and Birmingham Bulls of the old World Hockey Association. ‘He was named WHA ‘coach of the year in 1978-79 in Birmingham. When the Alabama city’s WHA club folded, he remained there to coach the Calgary Flames’ Central Hockey League affiliate. After living in the United States for years, he returned to his native Nova Scotia to coach the Montreal Canadiens’ American Hockey League affiliate from 1981 to 1984. He was an assistant to head coach Dan Maloney with the Leafs in 1984-85 and was head coach of the Leafs’ AHL farm club, the St. Catharines Saints, in 1985-86. When maloney quit in 1986 to take a similar post with the Winnipeg Jets, Leaf owner Harold Ballard quickly named Brophy head coach of the Leafs. Brophy, a no-nonsense coach whose teams have a history of being hard-nosed, is Ballard’s kind of guy. TOTAL “I've always demanded total effort from the players on any team I've coached,” says Brophy. “If the effort is there and we lose, there isn’t much for me to complain about. Pressure? “But it’s the same in any league — you can't win without a total effort from every player.” General manager Gerry McNamara has been obtaining the type of players Brophy wants. While many NHL teams have hired coaches they feel are best suited to their players’ overall makeup, the Leafs are forming their team around Brophy’s philosophy: “Nobody is going to push us around.” Recent additions Dave Semenko and Al Secord personify Brophy's quest for big, rugged forwards. The only rookie to make the team this autumn is hardrock junior defenceman Luke Richardson from the OHL's Peterborough Petes. The No. 1 star on the club is abrasive Wendel Clark. Brophy has been involved in hockey “since I was born” and has good friends wherever he goes. The Leafs open their 1987-88 Y schedie in Chicago Thursday against the Blackhawks.
