Now, it’s the best-guess division. Who will finish first? Who will finish last? Take your best guess. In a division where a .500 record could put a team in contention for first place, it seems each of the six Patrick squads skate into the new schedule with more questions than answers. Here’s a look at the teams, in order of -1989-90- gul: finish, with finish this season: NEW YORK RANGERS As Billy Martin was to baseball, coach Roger Neilson is to hockey. Oh, Roge would never punch a marshmallow salesman. But like Martin, he seems to enjoy incredible success during his first season with a team, then loses the magic just as quickly. Bernie Nicholls plays a full season on Broadway this year, but will he enjoy the same success with the Rangers that he had in Los Angeles? If defencemen Brian Leetch, David Shaw and the rest of the wounded stay healthy, New York should put together another solid season Predicted finish: 2nd NEW JERSEY DEVILS With players from the Soviet Union, Czechoslovakia, Sweden, Finland, Haiti, the United States and Canada, Devils GM Lou Lamoriello has put together a multinational force with more passports than the one facing off against Iraq’s Saddam Hussein. New Jersey improved by 17 points last year with a Promising 37-34-9 record. This should be the year the Devils avoid disappointment. Soviets Viacheslav Fetisov and Alexei Kasatonov have jhad a year to acclimatize themselves to the punishing NHL schedule. Having Peter Stastny, a late- season arrival from Quebec, for a full year should also help. Predicted finish: Ist. WASHINGTON CAPITALS After making the NHL's Final Four for the first time, the Washington front office was all smiles last spring. But within days of losing the Wales Conference final to Boston, the Capitals were back in the news when three players were accused of sexually assaulting a teenage girl. The negative publicity from the incident left its mark. One of those involved, Geoff Courtnall, was traded to St. Louis and another, leading scorer Dino Ciccarelli, spent the summer apologizing to the Capitals’ fans. Newcomer Petr Zezel (traded for Courtnall) will fill some of the Caps’ holes and so will winger John Druce if he lives up to his playoff performance: 14 goals in 15 games Predicted finish: 5th. NEW YORK ISLANDERS Last year, Pat LaFontaine finished fifth in the Hart Trophy voting. Considering his supporting cast, he may have deserved a few more votes. Solid goaltending from Mark Fitzpatrick and Glenn Healy helped the Islanders rebound from a disastrous 1988-89 season. One of the last links to the Islanders’ glory years was severed when Bryan Trottier was released during the off-season. But the architects of those Stanley Cup teams — coach Al Arbour and GM Bill Torrey — are still around. . Predicted finish: 4th. PITTSBURGH PENGUINS Mario Lemieux’s back is causing pains for the en- tire Penguins organization. Lemieux had been skating with the team after recovering from off-season back surgery, but he recen- tly was sent back to Pittsburgh when it was decided his recovery wasn’t progressing as planned To make matters worse, No. 2 scorer Paul Coffey is unhappy with negotiations for a new contract. Predicted finish: 3rd. PHILADELPHIA FLYERS The team's most valuable players, goaltender Ron Hextall and right winger Rick Tocchet, recently signed big-money contracts. That's two headaches cured and a bunch more on the way. The Flyers have steadily deteriorated over the last five years, dropping to 71 points last season — Philadelphia's first playoff miss since 1972. General manager Bob Clarke was fired; Russ Farewell was hired. At age 34, Farwell is younger than defenceman Mark Howe, one of the many veterans still on the Flyers. Predicted finish: 6th. ADAMS DIVISION By BILL BEACON The Canadian Press Fourth overall and 93 points last season was no reason to bust up the Montreal Canadiens, but that’s just what general manager Serge Savard did. Savard sent defenceman Chris Chelios, the former Norris Trophy winner and the team’s on-ice leader, to the Chicago Blackhawks for slick centre Denis Savard. He then sent Chelios’s partner, Craig Ludwig, a steady but unspectacular defenceman, to the New Jersey Devils for defenceman Gerald Diduck. And Claude Lemieux, a talented forward with a spoiled-brat image, was dealt to New Jersey for oft-injured winger Sylvain Turgeon. The Boston Bruins beat Montreal in five games to take the division last year with a team equally strong on defence, but also with a first-rate power play led by Raymond Bourque, Cam Neely and Craig Janney. The Bruins were first overall with 101 points and had the league's best road record at 23-12-5. BOSTON BRUINS The Bruins had few weaknesses, so they reinfor- ced by signing Bourque and Neely to new contracts. The Bruins practised an uncharacteristic policy of tur- ning the other cheek last season, hoping to take advan- tage of opponents’ aggression by putting their power- play, No. 2 in the league, to work. That may change with the acquisition of brawling Boston native Chris Nilan from the New York Rangers. Predicted finish: Ist. BUFFALO SABRES The Sabres folded in the playoffs — again. They haven't won a series since 1983. So ace defenceman Phil Housley went to Winnipeg'for Dale Hawerchuk, who coach Rick Dudley hopes will tkae some pressure off 21-year-old centre Pierre Turgeon, who had 106 points. It may also help big winger Dave Andreychuk, who had a career year with 40 goals. Much depends on the development of Soviet defector Alexander Mogilny, a flightly player with the talent to be a star. Predicted finish: 2nd. MONTREAL CANADIENS Savard will centre 51-goal scorer Stephane Richer and 31-goal scorer Shayne Corson on the Canadiens’ most potent line in years. But have the Canadiens given up too much? After losing the likes of leaders Bob Gainey, Larry Robinson and Rick Green in 1989, the Canadiens this year big adieu to Chelios, Smith, Naslund, Ludwig and Lemieux. Montreal is counting on 24-year-old Peter Svoboda, a veteran of six years, to anchor the defence. Predicted finish: 4th. HARTFORD WHALERS They’ve got goaltending, with Mike Liut and Peter Sidorkiewicz, and a sound defence, with Ulf Samuelsson and Dave Babych. But do the Whalers have the attack? Ron Francis and Pat Verbeek are solid up front and Hartford could become a real power if the robust Kevin Dineen can recover from back Problems and newcomer Robert Holik, a 19-year-old from Czechoslovakia, fulfills his promise. Predicted finish: 3rd QUEBEC NORDIQUES The Nordiques finished last overall for a second NHL PREVIEW: Anybody's Cup this year season and @ much-needed - house-cleaning. Pierre Page is the new general manager and Dave Chambers the new coach. Quebec had one first-rate player last season, Joe Sakic with 102 points, but hope they’ve given him equal limemates with the signing of Owen Nolan, the No. | overall draft pick, and Mets Sundin, the No. 1 pick from 1989. Craig Wolanin and Randy Velischek will help a so-so defence. SMYTHE DIVISION By BRUCE CHEADLE The Canadian Press CALGARY FLAMES New head coach Doug Riseborough, the unexpec- tedly speedy recovery of injured centre Joe Nieuwen- dyk and a roster deep enough to trade away proven, veterans all spell trouble for the rest of the division. Riseborough replaced Terry Crisp, and observers say the positive effect on player attitude is palpable. The trading of team captain Brad McCrimmon to, Detroit and veteran right winger Joe Mullen to Pity tsburgh earned Calgary draft selections. ._ Goaltenders Mike Vernon and Rick Walmsley are a solid tandem behind the Flames’ talented defence. Predicted finish: 1st. EDMONTON OILERS Goaltender Grant Fuhr’s off-season admission of long-term substance abuse and expected suspension, plus the loss of free agent Jari Kurri to Italy, cast lengthy shadows on the defending Stanley Cup cham- pions. However, in goal, Edmonton has Bill Ranford, the 1990 Conn Smythe Trophy winner as top perfor- mer in the playoffs, to fill Fuhr’s pads. And Soviet Anatoli Semenov appears poised to occupy Kurri’s vacant right-wing spot. With veterans such as Mark Messier and Glenn Anderson coming off excellent seasons and young turks Martin Gelinas, Adam Graves and Joe Murphy fresh from their first sip from Lord Stanley’s cup the loss of Kurri could be negligible. Edmonton may add promising rookie Colin Bauer to its corps of seven veteran defencemen. Predicted finish: 2nd. WINNIPEG JETS Bob Murdoch, the NHL’s 1989-90 coach of the year, continues to emphasize team speed and puck control, especially on defence where the Jets may have the slickest foursome in the league. Housley, acquired with Scott Arniel and Jeff Parker in a trade with Buffalo for Hawerchuk, joins Dave Ellett, Fredrik Olausson and Teppo Numminen on the Winnipeg blueline. Arniel will be a welcome addition to the under-« sized Winnipeg wings, as will late-season addition Paul MacDermid as he further adjusts to the Winnipeg flow-and-go system. Predicted finish: 3rd. VANCOUVER CANUCKS Last season’s Soviet newcomers Igor Larionov and Vladimir Krutov failed to live up to expectations. Coach Bob McCammon’s vow to treat the former Russian stars like all his other players this year means an overweight Krutov might not play. Vancouver should be improved by the addition of 18-year-old Czechoslovakian centre Peter Nedved, the NHL’s highly touted No. 2 draft pick this year. Vancouver will miss retired defenceman Paul Reinhart’s leadership on the power play and hope former Montreal Canadien Jyrki Lumme can fill the void. The Canucks are solid in goal with Kirk McLean. Predicted finish: 4th. LOS ANGELES KINGS The Kings’ fortunes this season rest on my ‘‘ifs.’” If the Wayne Gretzky-Tomas Sandstrom-Tony Granato line stays healthy, if goaltender Kelly Hrudey plays more than 52 regular-season games, if defen- cemen Steve Duchesne and Larry Robinson play up to their capabilities and if Luc Robitaille repeats his 52- goal season, they'll be contenders. - But the Kings’ lack of depth, the 80-game schedule and the team’s gruelling West Coast travel requirements make them a longshot. Predicted finish: Sth. NORRIS DIVISION By NEIL STEVENS The Canadian Press CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS Adding Czechoslovakians Dom Hasek, in goal, and Frantisek Kucera, on defence, plus the acquisition of Chelios raises the Blackhawks’ defensive capabilities several notches. Losing Savard might not be that big a deal. Savard missed 20 games and scored only 27 goals last year and Chicago still finished first. With Chelios and Kucera, Chicago’s transition game should be quicker. Predicted finish: Ist. ST. LOUIS BLUES The Blues allowed the fewest number of goals in the division last season and adding Stevens further enhances the defence. And look for rushing defen- ceman Jeff Brown to have more of an impact in this his first full season in St. Louis. Adding 35-goal-man Geoff Courtnall via the trade route pumps up the offence. The big question: can Brett Hull come close to another 72-goal season now that set-up man Pete Zezel has been traded away? Centre Adam Oates, who had 79 assists last year, might be the answer. There are a lot of average players on this team, but coach Brian Sutter seems to be able to consistently get them to play smart, disciplined hockey. Predicted finish: 3rd. TORONTO MAPLE LEAFS The Leafs were the most erratic team in the division last year. Toronto scored more goals, but allowed the most, in the Norris. Nothing has been done about the inconsistent ing and woefully i defence. Left winger Wendel Clark played only 81 games the last three years but says his ailing back feels fine. Al Iafrate, the best defenceman, begins the season with a suspect knee. If either of the two have recurrences of their problems, count the Leafs out — way out — regardless of how many goals Gary Leeman and Dan Marois score. Predicted finish: 4th. MINNESOTA NORTH STARS Bob Clarke managed the Philadelphia Flyers down the drain. Now, he’s in charge in Minnesota. What’s he do? He acquires leg-weary veterans Bobby Smith, Brian Propp and Ilkka Sinisalo — guys nobody else wanted — and names Bob Gainey head coach. Gainey was a wonderful player, but his only coaching experience was one season with a French club. Forwards Brian Bellows and Mike Modano and goaltender Jon Casey will have to carry this team. Predicted finish: Sth. DETROIT RED WINGS Bryan Murray, the new GM and head coach, provides a fresh sense of direction. Getting Brad McCrimmon from Calgary and signing free agent Rick Green will help the defence. Snaring Soviet sniper Sergei Fedorov gives the Red Wings the top group of centres in the division, in- cluding the ever-brilliant Steve Yzerman and Jimmy Carson, rarin’ to prove his worth in his first full season in Detroit. The Red Wings will have to win more games on the road and Tim Cheveldae will have to step forward as the bona fide No. 1 goalie if Detroit is to challenge for top spot. Don’t overlook the Probert Factor. Predicted finish: 2nd LIFESTYLES Expert offers recession tips By PETER HUM Ottawa Citizen OTTAWA (CP) — The recession is coming! The recession is coming! It sounds like the cry of an economic bogeyman, but more and more analysts, bolstered by a Statistics Canada report released last month, are making that prediction. What does an impending recession mean for you and your family? It doesn’t mean you'll be selling apples on the Street. But it should mean more financial caution, an end to relentless shopping and a return to penny- pinching. A recession is usually defined as six months (or two i of ini i output. According to StatsCan, we're halfway there. 4 On Aug. 31, the federal agency confirmed an economic slump between April and June — a general decline for the first time since 1986, and more steep than since 1982. The report mentions several indicators of a ing : a drop in spending, rising unemployment, lagging investment by businesses and a sluggish housing market. It will take a similar assessment for July, August and September to make official the cries of recession, but some experts looking at monthly reports of economic sectors are pessimistic. Robert Kerr, chairman of the Canadian Association of Financial Planners, says we're in for a “mild but prolonged’’ recession. Canada’s last recession, which lasted from the summer of 1981 to the end of 1982, was ‘‘much more severe,’’ Kerr says. But even ‘‘the slow and uncertain times’ of a mild recession will mean job losses, lower wage in- creases and contifuing high interest rates. He Predicts it might take a year and a half before economic recovery sets in. Until then, here are a few recommendations on money management and cutting costs, with some tips on leading the good life without draining your bank account. These suggestions come from Kerr: ws © Keep your. job security. Mindful of layoffs, Kerr says a recession is a ‘‘time to work hard and solidly.’" © Delay starting up a business. * Build your cash assets. You'll want a cushion for harder times and a reserve to take ad- vantage of later opportunities. © Try to get rid of debts, especially expensive and demanding short-term loans. © Do without credit cards and major pur- chases. * Less-experienced investors should avoid the risk and volatility of the stock market. An in- creasingly sophisticated stock market makes it dif- ficult to recommend recession-proof choices. * Short-term ‘investments such as Canadian treasury bills, bank term deposits, and trust com- pany guaranteed investment certificates are more Solid choices than stocks. The Canadian Automobile Association has advice to help motorists limit their gas-guzzling: * Drive only when it’s necessary, advises the Canadian Automobile Association. Walk or cycle short distances, join car pools and take the bus. * Avoid hard braking and fast acceleration. They use about 15 per cent more gas. Drive at steady speeds and anticipate stoplights. © Plan your trips to use routes with smooth traffic flows. You'll cut down on stop-and-go driving. © Keep your tires inflated at the manufac- turer’s. maximum. Under-inflated tires reduce economy and wear down at the edges. Over- inflated tires are a safety hazard. © Turn off your ignition if you wait for more than a minute. Restarting your car is cheaper than idling. Here are tips from Ontario's Ministry of Energy: © Upgrade your insulation, especially for your roof and basement, says Ontario’s energy ministry. Ceiling insulation can save as much as 30 per cent of your fuel. Ontario Hydro says that typically 20 to 25 per cent of a home's heat loss is from the basement. © Reduce air leakage through doors and win- dows, where the average single-family home loses 25 per cent of its heat through air leaks. * Maintain your heating system at peak ef- ficiency. Keep your furnace filters clean. © Set your thermostat at about 20. For each degree more, your fuel use rises by five per cent. © After taking a bath or doing dishes, let the hot water sit to heat the room. Ontario Hydro has more tips to keep water and electricity bills down: © Take quick showers, not baths, advises On- tario Hydro. And make sure the shower head is energy-efficient — it can cut your shower’s hot water use in half. © Fix any leaking taps — one drop each second wastes about 800 litres of water a month. © Vacuum your refrigerator’s condenser coils. It works easier and uses less electricity. © Use an insulating blanket to reduce heat loss from your electric hot water heater. Both the blanket and the heater must be CSA-approved. © Hot water pipes passing through cold areas Beware of hot tub rash EDMONTON (CP) — You've Public recreation facilities. chemicals in the water. of your home can also be insulated. * Switch to fluorescent light bulbs. They can be four times more efficient than incandescent bulbs. * Choose energy-efficient appliances. Turn out lights when leaving a room.

Store-bought muffins cost as much as 60 cents. * Buy basics, such as baking ingredients and cereals, in bulk instead of pre-mixed or prepared items. They’re cheaper and more nutritious. * Use your microwave instead of your stove and oven. Exclusive use of a microwave oven con- sumes only a third of the energy of conventional cooking. * Check newspapers for liquidation and warehouse sales for big savings on brand-name items. © Browse at the spring and fall police auctions. Each spring and fall, everything from bicycles to radios to binoculars are up for bids, says Jim Day of the Ottawa police property section. * Hang onto hand-me-downs.

Shields says ‘‘home-grown fun" can replace more expensive entertainment options we take for granted. © Rather than renting a video and ordering a pizza, a family could make a pizza together, Shields suggests. * Try family picnics over trips to fast food restaurants. © Dust off your library card and use it for magazines as well as books.

Yolanda Ballard’s court documents also say Ballard negotiated with Tridel, a condominium developer, to build apartments on the downtown site of the Gardens. Yolanda, $7, cites her role in the talks to show she helped the hockey baron run his life.

The next day your body is covered with a nasty red rash from your shoulders to your feet. Welcome to Hot Tub Hell. The rash, which can be accom- panied by boils, has probably been caused by the pseudomonas aeruginosa bacterium — bettr known as hot tub disease. “*The rash is really quite common,” says Dr. Wanda Wenman, an infec- tious-disease specialist at the Univer- sity of Alberta. “As there are more people with their own hot tubs, doctors are seeing more cases of the rash."” Hot tubs, in which water is powered against the body, are known for stress-reducing qualities, and can also be used to ease stiff joints and other symptoms of arthritis. An estimated 100,000 are in use in Canada. But if improperly maintained, they can be a breeding ground for hot tub disease. The pseudomonas aeruginosa micro-organism thrives in water and doesn’t mind high temperatures. The bacterium ‘can be found around household taps and sinks, but in low concentrations it doesn’t pose a health threat. It also lurks in swim- ming pools and is often the cause of the minor ear infection known as swimmer’s ear. Alice Munger of the Vancouver department of health says the hot and bubbling water in hot tubs robs the body of its normal protection. “The water strips all of the natural oils and bacteria from a person's skin that protects them from infection,” she says. “And everybody's body dirt is swirling around the tub. You wouldn’t catch me in one of those things.”’ Wenman says hot tub disease poses no long-term health problems and usually disappears within three or four days. The best treatment is no treatment, other than perhaps an ointment to reduce itching, she says. If you come down with it, ‘‘don’t panic,"’ says Wenman. ‘“‘If it persists beyond three or four days or is causing great discomfort, call your doctor."’ Bill Irwin of the Edmonton board of health says about two hot tubs a month are shut down in the city because of high-bacteria counts. The board regulates 100 or so hot tubs in apartment buildings, hotels and “We get a fair number of com- plaints each month,”’ he says. ‘‘But People often don’t report it . . . we know it is very common.” Hot tub disease is more a problem in public tubs with lots of different bathers than in private homes, says Richard Hubbard of Canadian Spa and Pool Marketing magazine. “Personally, I won't get in one (a public tub) unless I know I’m the first one in that day,"’ he says. The key to a bacteria-free hot tub is maintaining a balance among the allow owners to test and control these levels. Pregnant women, people with heart Problems and small children should consult a doctor before using a hot tub because high temperatures may raise blood pressure, experts say. Excessive use of alcohol while soaking up the heat is also a no-no. A glass of wine or beer wouldn’t cause problems, Wenman says, but if you have had a lot to drink a hot tub can be hazardous. tial for capital appreciation A2Bdrm. N. Castlegar...
