The netminder for Kalesnikotf Lumber watches as the puck bounces around the crease area. The bounced all seemed to go to Bill's Heavy Duty as the Heavy Duty squad outplayed play. By GARY KINGSTON Canadian Press VANCOUVER (CP) — The Washington Capitals found the perfect tonic Tuesday for an early-season NHL slump — an off-form goalténder.2 The slow-starting Capitals, winless in three games and just 26 on the season coming into Vancouver, scored three times on shakey Canuck netminder Kirk McLean in the first period and then got an overtime winner from Mike Ridley to beat the Canueks 4-3. % . “I hope it’s a real boost for the hockey club, a real confidence booster,” said relieved Washington coach Bryan Murray. “I think it will be. “The Canucks are a fine club and for us to beat them in their building on this occasion the way we had been going is pretty rewarding.” Ridley, off to the best start of his four-year NHL career, scored the winner at 2:55 of overtime on the power play. His eighth goal in nine games came on a quick wrist shot that beat backup Vancouver netminder Steve Weeks on the glove side. The Capitals swarmed all over the Canucks in the opening period. But if McLean had been sharper, Vancouver might have escaped unscathed. SOFT GOALS HURT Despite having one of the league's best goals against averages, the 22-year-old McLean has been victimized this season by bad goals. In the first period, he knocked the puck into his own net for the first Washington goal — credited to Dale Hunter — misplayed a soft wrist shot from the blueline by Ken Carlson and was caught out of position when Dave Christian scored from in close. Vancouver coach Bob McCammon replaced McLean with Weeks to start the second period, but was loathe to put all the blame on his young netminder. Canucks lost in OT “Washington was all over us like a blanket in the first period,” said McCammon. “Kirk -McLean obviously wasn't great, but I don’t blame him. I just took him out to . . . try to lift the hockey team.” It worked briefly as Tony Tanti scored twice in the second period to tie the score at 3-3. But the Canucks faltered in the third when they were outshot 14-7 and only some brilliant goaltending by Weeks prevented the Capitals from winning in regulation time. . “If you're going to do anything at home, you've got to be a third-period team,” said McCammon. “And in the third period we collapsed and that bothered me.” EXTEND STRING The win allowed the Capitals to extend their unbeaten string against the Canucks to 13 games over five seasons. Brian Bradley scored the other goal for Vancouver, which has been to overtime four times in 10 games this season and now is 1-5 in character. building one-goal games. For the struggling Capitals, who are two games into a five-game road swing, the win was crucial. “It's a big win for us,” said Ridley, who also had an assist. “Everybody knows we didn’t start off as well as we could have and should have. “The losses were starting to add up on each other and it’s good to get the win and hopefully we can go from here.” Canucks Notes: The 28 goals allowed by the Canucks after 10 games is the best defensive start in team history . . . The Canucks have outscored opponents 15-5 in the second period this year Captain Stan Smyl, second on the club's all-time penalty minutes list, picked up his first penalty of the season with a roughing minor in the third period. Oilers beat Kings By The Canadian Press For a guy who once bragged about having the perfect game plan to stop Wayne Gretzky, Edmonton coach Glen Sather was quite nonchalant about holding the ex-Oiler superstar scoreless for the second straight game. “It's not our plan for the entire year not to have him score against us,” Sather said Tuesday night after the Oilers edged Los Angeles 5-4 for their second win over the Kings in less than a week. “We just don’t want them to beat us. “I don't care if he scores as long as we win.” Gretzky collected a pair of assists — just as he did last Wednesday when the Oilers beat the Kings 8-6 in his first time back to Edmonton since the trade. The two Smythe Division rivals are scheduled to face off six more times this season. “I'm sure it's going to happen sooner or later,” Sather said of the possibility of Gretzky scoring against his old teammates. “Wayne's such a great player that we're not going to hold him off the boards all night. “And I know (Esa) Tikkanen is working very hard against him and the team is very aware of him every time he's on the ice. Not only did Tikkanen effectively shadow Gretzky all night, but he also scored the decisive goal for the Oilers-with-14:68 teft to give Edmonton-a-4-3-lead. He got the puck from a faceoff, spun and fired past Los Angeles goalie Glenn Healy. Gretzky, Mike Krushelnyski and Marty McSorley were traded to the Kings in early August for Carson, 1988 first-round draft pick Martin Gelinas, three future first-round draft choices and $15 million. In other NHL games Tuesday night, it was: Toronto Maple Leafs 4, New York Islanders 3; Pittsburgh Penguins 6, Calgary Flames 1; Chicago . Blackhawks 7, Quebec Nordiques 4; Montreal Cana. diens 1; Boston Bruins 1; Buffalo Sabres 7, New Jersey Devils 4; and Washington Capitals 4, Vancouver Canucks 3 in overtime. Craig Simpson, Steve Smith, Charlie Huddy and Jimmy Carson also scored for the Oilers while Mike Krushelynski, Dave Taylor, Mike Duchesne and John Tonelli replied for the Kings. PENGUINS 6 FLAMES 1 Mario Lemieux had two goals and three assists and Steve Guenette stopped 43 shots to lead Pittsburgh to victory. Lemieux leads the league with 15 goals and 31 points in eight games. Joe Nieuwendyk scored the lone Flame goal. BLACKHAWKS 7 NORDIQUES 4 Dan Vincelette scored twice and Steve Larmer had a goal and two assists as Chicago ended a five-game losing skid while Quebec's winless streak reached four. CANADIENS 1 BRUINS 1 Shayne Corson scored on a power play at 2:26 of the second period to give Montreal a tie with Boston which now is undefeated in its last four games. LEAFS 4 ISLANDERS 3 Toronto, which now has more points (15) than all other teams in the NHL, scored four goals on four shots in the second period — including two by Ed Olezyk — and went on to beat New York which had a four-game Kalesnikoff 7-3 last night in Castlegar Gentleman's Hockey League Chaikin driven to violence NEW. YORK (AP) — Former South Carolina university football player Tommy Chaikin used body building anabolic steroids for three years and says they drove him to violence and nearly to suicide, ac cording to Sports Illustrated maga zine. “I was sitting in my room at the Roost, the athletic dorm at the University of South Carolina, with the barrel of a loaded .357 Magnum pressed under my chin,” the story, written by Chaikin and SI's Rick Telander, begins. “My finger twitched on the trig ger. I was in bad shape, very bad shape. From the steroids. It had all come down from the steroids, the crap I'd taken to get big and strong and aggressive so I could play this game that I love.” Chaikin, a six-foot-one, 250-pound defensive lineman, played from 1984 to 1987 after redshirting in 1983. He said he didn't pull the trigger because his father, who had flown to Columbia, S.C., for the game, knocked on the door and took him to hospital in Washington, D.C. In the spring of 1984, Chaikin said, “I didn’t think I was going to take steroids to get big and strong and aggressive. I finally broke down. I saw how well the guys already on steroids were doing, maybe 30 of them at that time.” QUOTES COACH He said assistant coach Jim Wash burn told him, “Do what you have to do, take what you have to take Chaikin said he went from 210 pounds to 235 in eight weeks, taking 12 injections a month. In addition to muscle growth, he said he bad acne on my back, my hair started to come out got real I was having trouble sleeping and my testicles began to shrink — all the side effects you hear about.” When he took his football physical that fall, a doctor told him he had developed high blood pressure and a heart murmur. But Chaikin said he “never heard a word about it from the coaches.” Chaikin said he takes no drugs now, “not even aspirin. I still have with my vision, but the winning streak broken despite hi the Leafs 84-18. Toronto-now is unbeaten in five games and has won five straight on the road. SABRES 7 DEVILS 4 Pierre Turgeon scored twice and Dave Andreychuk broke a tie with a goal on a one-handed deflection, also his second of the game, as Buffalo improved its record against New Jersey to 14-2-3 since the Devils moved from Colorado for the 1982 NHL season. P doctor says that should pass with time “My balance isn't what it used to be and I still feel edgy. 1 can't work full-time, because some days I have to rest.

Roger Brad ley scored from Steve McLean to make it 1-0 Trail after the first period Trail continued in the second period as Bradley scored again, this time on a play from Brett McLaren. The Rebels got their only goal of the middle frame from Lorne Kani- gan after Bryan Wilson put him in the clear.

Stan Makortoff stopped 40 of the Lalonde judges, By JIM MORRIS WINNIPEG (CP) — Sometimes it's not whether you win or lose, it's how a boxing judge perceives a fight World light heavyweight champion Donny Lalonde confidently predicts he'll knock out Sugar Ray Leonard when the two come to blows Nov. 7 in a ring set up in a parking lot behind Caesars Palace in Las Vegas. Some boxing insiders say a knockout is the only way the blue-eyed, blond-haired Canadian can retain his World Boxing Council title and grab the newly minted super middleweight crown. “Ray hasn't really knocked out a lot of guys, but he has outpointed many of the best, most of the best,” retired welterweight and former Leonard sparring partner Shawn O'Sullivan said Tuesday in an inter view from Toronto. “Donny will have to knock him out or knock him down a number of times throughout the contest.” Leonard, 32, a three-time world champion who is hoping to become the first boxer to win titles in five different weight divisions, has a record of 34 wins and one loss with 24 knockouts. But the 1976 Olympic gold medalist won't be the only opponent Lalonde must beat in the ring “Donny has a couple things he’s up against,” said O'Sullivan, who won a silver medal in the 1984 Los Angeles Olympics after a controversial loss to American Frank Tate. “Fe walk into America, and beat an American at any game, is tough went through that in ‘84. Ray is a legend, so Donny does not only have to beat him, he's got to beat a lot of his history.” DOUBTS BIAS Lalonde, 28, doubts he will be the victim of a home-town decision. “The judges see a fight as it is,” 44 shots he faced and Trail netminder Darren Miracle stopped 24 of the 29 the Rebels fired in his direction In Saturday's game, Lorne Kani gan and Jarret Watts each scored a hattrick to lead the Castlegar Rebels to a decisive 10-4 victory over the Rossland Warriors Watts opened the scoring ai the 9:30 mark in the first period. Goalie Stan Makortoff got the lone assist Just 11 seconds later, Kanigan scored from Keith Semenoff and Shawn McAdie. Kanigan got the only other goal in the period from Wayne Saliken and Duane ‘Weir as the Rebels were out in front 3-0 after one period The Warriors rebounded in the second period when Shane Jackson and Jason Read scored two quick goals under a minute apart. Ryan Lilley assisted on Jackson's goal and Jackson and Dave Yuris helped Read with his goal. But the Rebels replied with two of their own. Roger Carlson scored from Watts and Glen Ormsby and Saliken scored on an unassisted ef- fort. Rossland got the period's last goal with just 33 seconds on the clock. Brian TRarburn finished a play from Tim Bourcher and Andy Wingrove. The Rebels led 5-3 after two periods. The Rebels opened the scoring in the final period when Watts was set up by David Vecchio. The Warriors replied under half a minute later on a goal from Mike Krause. Miro Pasie got the assist on Rossland’s last goal of the game. It was all Rebels after that. Semenoff scored from McAdie and the rout was on. Watts got his third of the night after Kanigan and Jason Hughes set him up. Kanigan then got his third from McAdie and Rick Crowe and Andre Savard scored from Vecchio for the game's final goal The Rebels’ next game is Friday at the Community Complex against the Grand Forks Border Bruins. takes on Leonard Lalonde said in an interview from his Las Vegas training camp. “Ray has a way of getting people excited and creating an excitement on an emotional level. I believe I also have that. The one thing most people have never seen is Ray Leonard being beaten’on and hit very often and very effectively. I believe it's up to me to convince the judges.” Trevor Berbick, a former Canadian and WBC heavyweight champion, said the cat-quick, always elusive Leonard will keep his distance from Lalonde's lethal right hand. “He's not going to run from him, but counterpunch,” Berbick said in an interview from Miami, Fla “Leonard will be lighter, definitely quicker. Donny Lalonde will have to try to musele Leonard, get him to brawl because he's bigger and stronger, keep the pressure on, don't let Leonard use his speed.” O'Sullivan, who retired after a 1988 thrashing at the hands of Canadian welterweight champion Donovan Boucher, said his old friend Leonard also knows how to catch a e's attention. is a master at stealing rounds,” O'Sullivan chuckled “He will work for maybe a minute and a half. He will space the wark right, he'll appear to be busier and he will not let his opponent land as much on him as he lands on his opponent.” TRICK IS UP Lalonde, who has a record of 31 wins and two losses with 26 knock. outs, knows all about Leonard's ability to win rounds with a flurry of punches at the bell “When he's close enough to flurry, Til be close enough to be bombing him,” said the former Canadian light heavyweight champion who lewft Winnipeg in 1985 for New York to become a world champion manager David Wolf. under
