HomeMy WebLinkAboutThe Huron Expositor, 1970-11-19, Page 5SPORTS SCENE by Ding Well another fast and furious week has rolled by and here we go again. It's been a week of upsets in most major sports as both Calgary and Montreal won in football to upset the favourites. In hockey the upstart Vancouver Canucks continue to surprise the established teams and the highly rated Boston Bruins were upset twice on the week end, both times by low placed teams (Toronto and California). The Canadian Football League finals provided the major upsets this past week as both underdogs came up with big victories to reverse the edge's previously held by the favourites. The Western final saw the Stampeders from Calgary whip the highly rated Roughriders to take a one game edge in the best of three finals. The win on Saskatchewan's home field gives the Stamps a definite advantage with the second game being played in Calgary., The Eastern two game total point final saw the Allouettes from Montreal upset the Tiger-Cats to take a big ten point margin going into the second • game. This week end will provide the opponents for the Grey Cup game and since I have picked Saskatchewan and Hamilton don't be surprised if Calgary and Montreal meet in Canada's big game. Hockey also provided many serprises over the past week. It's a great feeling to see the new -..'anadian team doing so well along with Canadians from Montreal despite injuries. Now if the Leafs play a few more games like last Saturday night perhaps the Canadians can finish one, two, three. Continuing a summary of the finishers we look at the f9urth place finish this week Detroit and Pitts- burg. I have Pittsburg fourth mainly because of past record and now that they have a taste of playoff money and with "Red" Kelly coaching the Penguins are going to be difficult to keep out of the playoffs. The eastern division fourth and final playoff spot in my opinion will go to the Red Wings mainly because of their scoring power and because of an old man named Gordy Howe. With Howe still going strong at 43 years It's hard to see the Wings being pushed out of the playoffs. This moves us up to the third place finishers which we glance at next week. (New York and Minnesota) Staying with hocky it was a credit to Goderich when during this past week end the town re- opened It's Arena with new $160,000 renovations. The teams officially marking the opening event were the Seaforth Intermediates opposing the G6derich Old Timers. The outcome of the game is of small consequence compared to the emphasis placed on the necessity of continuing local rivalries at all levels and in all sports. Local talent is the backbone of all area arenas and arearivalries built up over a period of years continue to provide the best entertainment possible. Just as games.between Toronto and Montreal seem to provide the greatest interest and entertainment then so do local 'teams opposing each other. With our minor teams readying themselves for the strenuous sdhedules ahead it's up to us to get out and support all our local teams and start our own rivalries. A quick peek at a less strenuous sport. There are some very high scores recorded at the local bowling alley along with some just as high tempers as those corner pins fail to fall. There are a few openings left in a couple of leagues so if you _really want to let .ofteo.ine .Steara 110/about. Joining a local bowling league. Not all of us are satisfied at being spectators so if you really want'to become active join in the sport of your choice. ry S Down At The Lanes By •Lee Hee • .1[ THE HURON ExPgsit9 DENTIST DR.
