Another NW season has. been completed
with the Toronto Maple Leafs taking home all the
marble$ for the second consecutive time,
After .our prediction of several weeks ago,
we have little comment to make on the outcome.
Our only alibi would be 'that our predictions were
based on statistics over the year's play and a bit
of .sentiment .for the under-dogs.

and deserve the title of world champions.
By recent indications the officials of Maple
Leaf Gardens expect Punch's boys will continue
to reign as top dogs in the future. An announce-
ment has been made that another .6,890 seats
will be added bringing the total housing capacity
to more than 18,999. The additional seats will be
installed at the north and south end of the
dens and are expected to be in place by the start
of next season.
One oddity was produced in this NHL sea-
son. For the first time since the season of 1925-
an entire Stanley Cup elimination series was
completed in regulation time without need of
overtime.
Pursuing statistics a little further we find
that over the years the Leafs and Red Wings
have had many close and exciting battles in play-
off action. Previous to this year and since 1928
the teams had met 18 times in either a semi-final
or final set and were all tied up at nine triumphs
each.
The latest win gives the Leafs a slight
edge. Including the latest meetings of the two
arch rivals, they now have each won 45 games
in the last 25 play-off years.
How much closer can you get?
Probably the greatest NHL final ever held
was the memorable Red Wing-Leaf battle of 1942
when the Leafs came from a three-game deficit
to take four in a row. This feat has never been
equalled since.
After dropping the first three, Hap Day
then coach of the Maple Leafs benched several
of his veteran regulars and brought up a group
of rookies, Particularly prominent in helping to
post the four consecutive wins were Ernie Dick-
ens and Don Metz,
In this series, Eddie- Bush now coaching
the Hamilton juniors set a record for defencemen
that still stands. Bush scored one goal and assist-
ed on four others in the second game.
Three years later another ding-dong bat-
tle took place. This time the Leafs took the first
three games and the Wings came right back to
even the set at 3-3. The Toronto boys took the
deciding game on Detroit ice by a score of 2-1.
In the first three games of the 1945 series,
Frank McCool, ulcers and all, was at his best
keeping the Wings off the score sheet for 180
minutes.

INJURIES PLAY LARGE ROLE
Injuries were quite prevalent in the just
concluded NHL season and played an important
part in the outcome. A rundown of the schedule
reveals that only 23 players were able to go the
70-game distance. This seems like a small por-
tion of a six-man roster of upwards of 120 pros.
The New York Rangers and Detroit Red
Wings were the most durable with six members
of each club going the full distance. The Stanley
Cup winners had five "iron men", Montreal Ca-
nadiens boasted three and Chicago two. Only one
Boston Bruin and that was defenceman Ted Green
started and finished the rugged schedule.
The record for the most consecutive games
played, 580 is still held by Johnny Wilson. Wil-
son retired from pro puck chasing last year and
performed this year with an Ottawa amateur
club. The record could quite easily be broken
next year as Andy Hebenton of the Rangers is
only 20 games short of the all-time mark, Handy
Andy has completed eight straight seasons with-
out missing a single game.

Going back to the same spot
three days later, Chier Mac-

was no accident. He came home
with another good sized pike.
This one was 28 inches long
and tipped the scales at an even
five pounds.

MORE OHA CONTENDERS
In winding up the hockey season mention
should be made of two teams that were battling
for OHA laurels.
The Strathroy Rockets, after disposing of
the Hensall-Zurich Combines, went on to oust I2x-
bridge and capture the Ontario junior D title.
Of interest to local fans is that two members of
the Combines were added to the Strathroy line-
up for the final and helped bring home the tro-
phy. Bill Shaddick and Earl Wagner joined the
Rockets and played a big part in several of the
Strathroy victories
A year ago. Ken Fadeile along with Terry
Bourne were picked up by the H-Z club as they
battled the same Uxbridge team.
In game number five of the series, played
in Uxbridge with seven minutes left and the score
tied 1-1. Shaddick and Wagner were re-united
with FadeIle as a front-line combination. The trio
seemed to find each other to their liking and
were responsible for two goals in the remaining
Moments to gain a 3-1 victory and a 3.2 edge on
the round.
The added stars from Hensall-Zurich again
teamed with Fadelie in the sixth and final tilt in
Strathroy and the line was instrumental in wrap-
ping things up. Bill Shaddick, who led the Sham-
rock junior scorers over the regular schedule for
the second consecutive year, fired the insurance
goal in a 6-4 decision.
In the six-game set, Wagner and Shaddick'
Picked up ten points apiece to prove their worth
to the Strathroy, outfit. Wagner fired four goals
and picked up six assists while Shaddick blinked
the light three tunes and assisted on seven other
successful plays.
