The game summary will show that Ryan Walter's second goal of the game — a 15-foot wrist shot from the fringe of the right face-off circle — produced the first victory by a home. teamin this series, and the first in nine playoff games between the Canadiens and the Nordiques. ‘ But it will not show that the triumph, which boosted Montreal into a 3-2 lead in the best-of-seven Adams Division final, was overshadowed by a third period that included a disallowed goal by each: team and a lot of heated words, especially by the Nordiques. ‘The scoring for Montreal, lest it be lost in the shuffle, eame_on a short-handed goal by Shayne Corson midway through the first period, and Walter's power-play effort at about the same point of the middle period, which served as an appetizer for his gan it . The diques got a goal by Alain Cote early in the second period and by Paul Gillis 88 seconds into the third period. But it was the goals which didn't count that made for a lively post-game ® discussion. In he 1 order, the C: were the first to be denied a goal, after Guy Carbonneau slid a shot into the net just beyond the first minute of ‘thi Kerry Fraser had his arm up to Nordiques, but wasn’t aware they which should have brought a st Fraser’s arm raised while the Nordiques had figured that Montreal was about to be penalized, skated to the Quebec bench for an extra attacker. With Malarchuk's net vacated, Carbonneau scored. “Kerry lost sight of the puck because his head was turned to watch else, and he didn't know the Nordiques had touched the puck,” said John Ashley, the supervisor of NHL officials, after the game. “In discussing it with the linesmen, it was clear to him that there should have been no goal, and he corrected himself.” With both.teams pressing for the go-ahead goal, Cote believed he had ended the tie with about three minutes to play, when he fired the puck past Montreal goaltender Brian Hayward, who was knocked down and slid back into the net, which moved slightly, but not off its Fraser ruled there was no goal because he had whistled minor penalties against Gillis and Mats Naslund of Montreal. -The pair jostled in front of Hayward, although replays seemed to indicate it was Naslund’s bump that toppled Hayward. “The play had been whistled because of the penalties and because of the net coming from its moorings,” said Ashley. “It was the right call.” ‘The Nordiques, who had the added torment of Walter's goal only 14 seconds later, begged to differ. “J thought Fraser made a very quick call,” said forward John Ogrodnick. “You see two guys going to the net and the goaltender going down often in the regular season without anything being called.” Hayward had another version of the play that led to the disallowed goal. “Gillis wasn't even looking at the puck.

Canada plays Czechoslovakia on Fri- day and Sweden on Sunday. The point it earned against the Soviets keeps Canada in contention for the gold medal. It was the first point the Soviets had relinquished in the tournament after seven straight wins. .~Team Canada, which lost 3-2 to the Soviets in opening round-robin play, nearly broke a scoreless deadlock during a power play to start the third period. Tony Tanti slapped a shot off the cross bar seconds after a shot by Craig Hartsburg zipped off a shoulder of goaltender Evegeny Beloshejkin and narrowly missed. Back at even strength, defenceman Doug Bodger dashed into the Soviet zone and passed into the crease to Dino Cicearelli, who redirected the puck off a goal post. The third period wore on and each team waited for the other to make a mistake. From the - start, Canada played cautious, clean hockey, staying out of the penalty box and avoiding the vaunted Soviet power play. Neither team took a penalty in the first period.

Defencemen Larry Murphy, James Patrick, Hartsburgh, Zarley Zalapski, Bodger and Bruce Driver were doing the job.

Tanti stole the puck off Fetisov at the side of the Soviet net and nearly scored midway through the period. The Soviets adjusted to Canada's defensive tactics at the start of the second period. They altered their passing pattern at the Canadian blue line and began penetrating the zone. Goaltender Bob Froese had to be sharp to make several saves on close-in shots. GOOD SAVE Kevin Kineen relieved the pressure with an individual rush that forced a good save from Beloshejkin in the eighth minute of the period. Dineen got another good chance on the same shift but backhanded his shot right into Beloshejkin. Froese made a huge save on a high slap shot in the 13th minute. Al Setord took the game's first nalty, at 16:09, for high-sticking Vasiliev. The Soviets had e good chances to score but their shots were wide and they over-passed with the manpower advantage.

Wood's fluke goal gives Islanders series lead PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Randy Wood was in no position to boast about a game-winning goal that kept the New York Islanders alive in the NHL playoffs. He was too busy trying to figure out how he scored. The goal snapped a 1-1 tie at 3:27 of the third period as New York beat the Philadelphia Flyers 2-1 to extend the best-of-seven Patrick Division series to a sixth game. The Flyers lead the series 3-2 with Game 6 set for Thurs day night at Nassau Coliseum. “I was tied up in front of the net,” Wood said of his game-winner. “I felt a lot of sticks hit my leg. One should have been the puck.” It was. Bryan Trottier outhustled Flyers’ defenceman Brad Marsh for the puck and shot on goal. The puck hit Wood, probably on the skate, and glanced into the net. “I was lying on top of (FLyers’ goalie Ron) Hextall,” Wood said. “I looked in the net and saw the puck. I was as surprised as anyone.” New York's first goal, which tied the score at 14:18 of the second period, also was a fluke of sorts. Rich Kromm shot the puck in from the top of the left circle under a sprawling Hextall. “Ronnie (Hextall) caught his skate on the ice and tripped when he was coming out to make the stop,” said Flyers coach Mike Keenan. The Flyers’ only goal came at 5:56 of the first period on a breakaway when Lindsay Carson beat Islanders goalie Kelly Hrudey. Hrudey turned aside 24 other shots. Returning home could be considered a disadvantage for the Islanders, how- ever. They've lost five of their last six games — and both playoff games — to the Flyers at the Coliseum. The Islanders are a 1-7-1 at home in their last nine games. By contrast, the Isles have won four of six this season, including two of three in this series, on Philadelphia ice. Andy Cowan was a close third in 20:13. In the junior men's division, Allen Boucher gecorded the fastest time of the day in 21:00 but fell short of the overall which went to Andrei Evdoki- moff for his previous three perfor- mances. In the women's division Mary Asse- lin was first in 23:19, riding in her first time trial. Lorna Newman wheeled to second in 24:00 and held on to her lead to take the overall in her class. Tree Anderson was third of the day with a time of 24:38. The Kootenay Bicycle Club rides every Sunday.
