To say Dan Maloney and Jac old

Demers are lucky, is like saying
rd is a bit overweight.
' •Both coaches recen y e ew jobs a
the helmsof the Toronto Maple Leafs and
the St. Louis Blues over contract disputes.
The Blues wouldn't pay Demers the money
he wanted and the Leafs wouldn't provide
Maloney with the multi-year contract he
required to stay on.
No tsars shed here for the plight of the
Leafs the Blues.
" Both men deserved better treatment
than they were getting from their respec-
tive managements. Demers was the lowest
paid coach in the NHL, making a scant
$70,000 in leading his team to within a hair
of the Stanley Cup Finals
The poer shake that Maloney got in
Toronto goes without saying -but .I'll say it
anyway. With the media calling for his
head when the Leafs were floundering and
the spectre of Ballard constantly hanging.
over him, it'sa wonder that Maloney' stuck
. around; long enough to guide the -Leafs past
the Hawks.
• There's really no excuse for either
team's management. Both had something
good going by the end of the season, To
preserve the situation they had only to
make a few concessions. '
That they refused,is testament to 'the
poor attitude that prevails in the front. of-
fices of the two cities. Money, not winning,
seems to be the • top priority. Why else
would each let go of a successful coach just
when their teams were .getting turned
around.
It baffles me.
Luckily, it hasn't seemed to stymie
Maloney or Demers. Their solution? Take
their skills elsewhere where, they'll be
appreciated.
• In Detroit, Demers 'will get the money
that he's been looking for. And, whereas
the Blues will find it difficult to repeat the
success they enjoyed last year, the hapless
Wings have nowhere to go but up. Demers
can't lose.
Maloney was unemployed 'for less than
two days before he landed a job with John
and his Jets. It tends to make One wonder
whether he didn't have the position lined
up before he told Fat Harold, where to put
his one-year contract.
In Winnipeg, Dan will have the benefit of
a three-year pact and peace -of -mind know-
ing that Ballard will no longer be
breathing down his neck.
Besides, the Leafs, like the Blues, will be
hard-pressed to do as well as they did this
past season. If Maloney stayed on as coach
and the Leafs didn't start the season by
burning up'the league, he'd have the same
people once again calling for his head.
More power to these guys in their new
jobs. They're both cla$s acts: Theirold
teams, however, are•not. '
