a2 Castlégar News September 28, 1968 ‘SPORTS BoSox still three games away By The Canadian Press It's there, tantalizing them, teasing them, but they just can't reach out and grab hold. For the second consecutive night, the Toronto Blue Jays whipped Boston and stalled the Red Sox’ drive to the American League East division title. “There's no panic yet,” said pitcher Bob Stanley, following the 15-9 rout by the mathematically-elim. inated Blue Jays. “We're still in the driver's seat and we're pretty good drivers.” The only consglation Tuesday night came courtesy of Tom Candiotti. The Cleveland knuckleballer allowed just four hits as the Indians shut out the Detroit Tigers, 40. ‘The Tigers, who knew by way of the scoreboard at Cleveland Municipal Stadium that the Blue Jays had taken a 9-0 lead after two innings, could have moved 2 games behind Boston. Instead, they fell into a virtual tie with the New York Yankees and Milwaukee Brewers, 3" games off the lead. YZERMAN FINALLY UNTRACKED By the Canadian Press As Steve Yzerman goes, so go the Detroit Red Wings. The slick centre, who potted 50 goals last season, was having difficulty getting untracked in exhibition play this year and so was his team. But personal and team fortunes turned around Wednesday night as the Detroit captain scored his first two goals, both shorthanded, as the Red Wings defeated the Toronto Maple Leafs 4-2 for their initial win of the pre-season. Yzerman scored near identical goals 69 seconds apart late in the second period with teammate Mike O'Connell off with a five-minute major and a game misconduct for cross-checking Tom Fergus. The Detroit captain scored at 17:09, swooping past Leafs defenceman Todd Gill and stuffing his own rebound past goalie Jeff Reése. At 18:18, he moved past former teammate Darren Veitch and again scored on his own rebound to give the Wings a 2-0 lead. PENGUINS 6 OILERS 2 Mario Lemieux and Mark Kachowski scored three goals each as Pittsburgh spotted Edmonton a 2-0 first-period lead before scoring six unanswered goals to drop the defending Stanley Cup champions’ pre-season record to 2-4-2. The Penguins are 5-2. Lemieux scored the winning goal with 6:06 gone in the third period. NORDIQUES 7 FLYERS 1 Peter Stastny and Joe Sakic has two goals and an The Yankees beat the Baltimore Orioles 5-1 and Milwaukee handed the California Angels their eighth consecutive loss, 6-5, In Tuesday's other AL games, it was: Minnesota Twins 5, Oakland Athletics 0; Chicago White Sox 3, Texas Rangers 2; Seattle Mariners 10, Kansas City Royals 3. Boston's magic number remained three — any combination of Yankee losses and Boston wins adding to three gives Boston the crown, The Yankees have six games remaining compared with four for the other three teams. Slugger Don Mattingly remains hopeful. “Last night on (TV) they showed the leaders — Los Angeles, clinched; the Mets, clinched; Oakland, clinched, and next to Boston a ‘3’ that just looked huge,” . Mattingly said. “We want to make them win three games.” Ernie Whitt drove in six runs with a pair of homers and a single as Toronto took it sixth consecutive victory assist each as Quebec won for just the second time in seven pre-season starts. Stastny on a scramble late in the opening period and combined with Walt Poddubny, who later scored himself, and Michel Goulet on a power play midway through the second period for his second goal of the night. Sakic scored two spectacular goals 17 seconds apart in the third period, twice going in alone on Flyers goaltender Dominic Roussel. John Stevens scored for the Flyers. WHALERS 5 DEVILS 1 Sylvain Turgeon, Jody Hull and Scott Young scored a first-period goals Tuesday night, leading Hartford past New Jersey. Turgeon opened the scoring at 2:24 when he stole the puck from defenceman Tom Kurvers and beat Devils goalie Sean Burke from in close for his fifth goal of the pre-season. RANGERS 3 ISLANDERS 1 Goalie Mike Richter and defenceman Brian Leetch, teammates on the U.S. Olympic team last winter, helped the Rangers to their win. Richter, who is making a strong bid for a spot on the roster, had 25 saves and lost his shutout at 18:22 of the second period when Pat LaFontaine beat him on a 2-on-1 break with Brad Lauer. HAWKS 3 NORTH STARS 3 Gary Nylund’s goal midway through the final period earned the tie for Chicago. Steve Thomas and Mike Hudson got the other Blackhawk goals, while Warren Babe, Mark Hardy and Mitch Messier replied for the North Stars. FLAMES 6 TEAM CANADA 2 Calgary spotted the national team a two-goal lead before striking for six straight goals, five of them in the third period. Theoren Fleury and Joe Nieuwendyk, both former national team players, got goals for Calgary. Fleury scored twice with the other Flames goals coming from Gary Suter, Paul Ranheim and Haken Loob. in Fenway Park and 10th win in 12 meetings with Boston this year.

YANKEES 5 ORIOLES 1 Ron Guidry, 2-3, pitched seven strong innings and Mattingly hit home runs in the first and third innings for his 11th career multi-homer game.

Rangers sign Lafleur NEW YORK (AP) — Four years after retiring and three weeks after being inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, former Montreal Canadien Guy Lafleur returned to the NHL on Tuesday by signing a contract with the New York Rangers. Terms of the pact guarantee one year; the Rangers hold an option for a second. “The reason we signed him is that he made the team, not because he’s in the Hall of Fame,” coach Michel Bergeron said. “He’s one. of our four best right wings. He made the team.” Lafleur, who turned 37 on Sept. 20, agreed that he earned his chance to play again. “When I started, I didn’t know what to expect,” he said. “But I think I really deserved it. This is the most CASTLE BOWL (Under New Management) There are openings for teams in the following bowling leagues: MORNING Wednesday, 9:30 a.m. AFTERNOON Tuesday, 1:00 p.m. EVENING Tuesday {Mixed 9:00 p.m. Wednesday (Ladies), 7: Wednesday (Mixed), 9:00 p Friday (Mixed), 9:00 p.m. satisfying thing I've done since I began professional hockey.” Lafleur reitred after scoring 518 goals and 728 assists for 1,246 points to stand 11th on the all-time NHL scoring list. He played 14 seasons with the Canadiens and remains Montreal's all-time leading scorer. “This will be a new experience for me and my family,” Lafleur said. “There's not as much pressure as there was with Montreal.” Lafleur was the NHL's most feared shooter through the 1970s. He scored 50 or more goals in six straight seasons from 1974-75 to 1979-80, led the league in scoring three times and was the top gunner on Montreal's four straight Stanley Cup champion. ship teams from 1976-79. But he slumped to 27 goals in 1980-81, stayed at that Jevel for two more seasons, had 30 in 1983-84 and, after scoring just twice in the first 19 games in 1984-85, decided he'd had enough. On Nov. 26, 1984, he retired. But retirement didn't work out the way he had planned. He left the Canadiens’ front office 16 months after retiring and later was turned down when he tried to join the Canadian Olympic Team for the 1988 Winter Games in Calgary. He sought a tryout with Los Angeles after the Kings signed Wayne Gretzky, but was turned down. The Rangers, starved for scoring, extended an invitation. “I said when we invited him to camp that we'd watch him for three or four days and see how things went,” general manager Phil Espos ito said after a morning practice at the Rangers’ training camp in Rye, N.Y. “After that, we found we had to watch him closer. He may have been our best player out west during the first few exhibition games. If he can score 20-25 goals, we'd be pleased and happy.” Lafleur has one goal and assists in five exhibition games. two Brophy and players have tenuous truce TORONTO (CP) — Whether or not it’s a lull in the storm, the Toronto Maple Leafs see nothing but calm seas ahead as they sail into the 1988-89 NHL season. The atmosphere is based on a tenuous truce between the players and coach John Brophy — hockey's version of Hurricane Gilbert — and how long the treaty stays intact remains to be seen. The Leafs, who set a team record for futility last season by going 15 games without a win, haven't started losing on a regular basis yet. And that will happen. The coming season marks the 10th anniversary of the last Leaf team to finish with a better-than-.500 record (34-33-12 in 1978-79). Since coming to the Norris Division in 1981, Toronto has finished higher than fourth only once. Last season, the Leafs recorded 52 points for 20th overall in the stand. ings with a 21-49-10 record. The dismal performance saw the players recoil at the methods used by Brophy. Cantankerous owner Harold Ball ard appointed the NHL's youngest general manager, Gord Stellick. Stellick, who has limited confidence in Brophy, couldn't fire his hardnosed howling coach, but he did the next best thing — he muzzled him. “T've told Brophy his tirades have to be few and far between,” says Stellick, 31. COACH MELLOWS Brophy’s reply was he'll do what- ever it takes to win. And so far in training camp, he seems to have mellowed into a gentle September breeze. “Broph seems different,” says winger Gary Leeman, “That rubs off on the guys. He's more relaxed.” To his credit, Stellick has solved a couple of problems. He shunted outspoken Miroslav Frycer off to the Detroit Red Wings To reduce a shortage of depth, Stellick signed a handful of free agents hungry for jobs. Skaters such as Craig Laughlin, Paul Gagne, Bill Reid and Doug Shedden are vying for positions. Then the GM made peace with veteran defenceman Borje Salming, who had joined Frycer in blasting Brophy. But Stellick still hasn't made a major move to indicate drastic im- provement. On the ice, the Leafs shortcomings are many. The goaltending is incon sistent, the defence is inadequate and the offence is questionable. On offence, Toronto was 19th overall in goals-for and 21st with its power-play success rate. Those same numbers could easily be repeated. The success of the Maple Leafs hinges on the health of left winger Wendel Clark, the star on the team. Clark missed 52 games with a back injury last-season and just started full workouts. Clark nor the Leafs will say whether he will start the season. Mark Osborne is recovering from mononucleosis but says he's strong enough to play. If not, that leaves slowing veteran Al Secord as the team's best left winger. Mike Blais- dell, Gagne and Scott Pearson are not front line players but can fill in. The right side is woefully weak, with Leeman, second in scoring with 30 goals and 61 points, and Laughlin leading the way, Rookie Daniel Marois has had an impressive camp. The Leafs are strong at centre with Ed Olezyk, the top scorer last season with 42 goals and 75 points, Russ Courtnall, Tom Fergus and Vince Damphousse. * The defence, the second worst in the division next to the Minnesota North Stars, remains intact. Back are Salming, Luke Richardson, Dale De- Gray, Al Iafrante, Todd Gill, Chris Kotsopoulos, and Brian Curran while Darren Veitch was picked up from Detroit. , In goal, the trio of Ken Wregget, Allan Bester and Jeff Reese finished 19th overall with a 4.26 goals-against average last season. Pirates clinch second By The Canadian Press Pittsburgh clinched second place in the National League East with a thrill Tuesday night. Bobby Bonilla hit a two-run single and Andy Van Slyke threw out the tying run at home plate in the ninth inning as the Pirates beat the St Louis Cardinals 3-2. The Montreal Expos, who were also-chasing the second-place spot, lost 5-3 to the Chicago Cubs. “AllI could do there was throw the ball as hard as I could,” Van Slyke said. “with a line drive, I didn't get a chance to set up the way I like to.” Van Slyke, who has 12 assists this season, has enough confidence in his arm to know he had a shot throwing out Jose Oquendo. “I always think I have a chance unless I'm on the warning track,” Van Slyke said. In Tuesday's other NL games, it was: Philad Phillies 5, New hits and all five runs in five innings, losing for the fifth time in seven decisions. Just 6,131 attended the game, the smallest crowd in Olympic Stadium this season. PHILLIES 5 METS 4 At Philadelphia, Tommy Barrett hit a run-scoring single to snap a ninth-inning tie. With one out, Chris James singled and took second on Greg Gross’ groundout. Barrett, pinch-hitting for Steve Jeltz, singled on a 1-1 pitch off Roger McDowell, 5-5, driving in the winning run. ASTROS 3 BRAVES 2 At Atlanta, Alex Trevino hit a run-scoring single in the 10th inning, sending Altanta to its seventh conse- cutive loss. Rafael Ramirez, a former Brave, led off with a single against Joe Boever, 0-1. Kevin Bass sacri. ficed ‘and Trevino, another former Brave, singled to left. PADRES 8 DODGERS 4 At San Diego, Eric Show pitched a six-hitter for his career-high 16th victory. Show, 16-11, struck out a season-high nine and walked three in his 13th complete game, the most for a Padres pitcher since Randy Jones had 25 in 1976. GIANTS 6 REDS 3 At San Francisco, Jose Uribe had three hits and drove in two runs as San Francisco snapped Cincinnati's eight-game winning stréak.
