stanley cup playoff are only a week old and already three of the eight team that let out in quest of lord stanley tllverware have succumbed to the preuuret of the talk and fallen by the wayude in fact two of the aforementioned teami the toronto maple leaf and the philadelphia flyer were to badly oulcliued by their opponent the boiton bruin and st loui blue respectively that they could have been mistaken for two team out of the speytlde and district rural league the leaf were outscored by the narrow margin of 245 in their four game tenet with the bruins and the flyer scored only three timet in their series while the blue went popping 17 pucka into the philadelphia cage the third- the new york ranger managed to put forth a reasonably good effort but were not able to slop die pinpoint patting play of the highflying hab from montreal and also bit the dust in four game the leafbruin series created the most commotion and mrcel comer ditcuuion in this neck of the woods it produced little in the way of hockey but the full scale brawl that erupud in the first game in boston wu enough to attract the attention or several million tv viewer for the ret of the series the bruins of course dominated the series and it seemed that every time foster llewilt appeared at the end of a game to select the three stars his choice were limited and justly so lo members of the bruin while watching the fiasco that occurred in the first game and the minor tussle of the other three game i jotted down a list of player and officials whose words and actions deserve special mention and perhaps some form of award whether it be for something they added to the teries or for something they said or did that created excitement for bravery abovu and beyond the call of duty linesman george ashley who after being flattened by the solid right hand of leafs foibc kennedy bounced back up almost as quickly as he wenl down in a vain attempt to prevent further outbreak of fisticuffs for the most inaccurate prediction chicago black hawk defensenun pat stapleton in an interview with ward cornell between periods of the first game which the bruins led 60 well ward im going to go out on a limb and say that the leafs will come back and win tin teries that must have been a rotten limb pat for the understatement of the series television commentator brian macfarlane midst all the futswinging wrestling headbutting and wliatever other nasty little events took place during the first game perhaps for ihe benefit of late tuncrssn unfamiliar with the game this is not hockey best allround athltte- leafs mike pelyk ho demonstrated his apparent skill in the game of golf by promptly golfing the puck away eveiy time he got it for showing unusual kindness towards the opposition in the cause of good sportsmanship leah george armstrong who after making a fine check set up bruins first goal sunday night with a perfect pais to ed wewtfall consolation prize for hard luck guy of the series murray oliver of the lejfs who obviously got out of beantown too early after over 10 years of last place finishes with the bruins he finally got a taste of stanley cup playoff action only to tee his team go out in four straight at the hands of his former teammates then if that wasnt enough he was neatly knocked cold when he ran into derek sanderson high stick in the third period of sunday night game most surprising individual play of the series the cute behind the back pass eddie shack gave sanderson to set up bruins final goal on sunday night eddie who has been known more for his brawn than his brain in the nasi surprised everyone watching by passing the puck when he was in position to score himself and finally if there are still enough good solid limbs left one last prediction front this reporter most expected result of the series a wholesale thakeup in personnel on the part of the leaf management stafford smytho slatted it all off just two minutes after the
