going to go in Leach 26yearold right winger from Riverton Man scored the first five Flyer goalsone in the first period three in the second and the last early in the third In the process he set one NHL

did it twice in 1946 and 1952 Leachs three second period goals also equalled the playoff record for most goals by player in one period held by several individuals TIED THE MARK And his total of 15 goals in 12 playoff games tied the marksfor most playoff goals set by Yvan Cournoyer of the Canadiens in 1973 It also was only the third time in cup history that player has scored five goals in one game Richard did it in 1944 and Darryl Sittler of Toronto Maple Leafs scored five against the Flyers in the sixth game of their quarter final series The Flyers also set an NHL record when the line of

dont have to go back to Long Island said left winger Steve Shutt who scored two goals in the win which gave the Canadiens the bestof seven semifinal 41 If we had lost tonight think they would have been pretty tough in Long Island Murray Wilson Serge Savard and Peter Mahovlich scored the other goals for Montreal who held 3323 edge in shots Garry Howatt and Bobby Nystrom replied for the Islanders For change we started right in the first period going out there full speed hitting said Shutt We started right in the first period and kept on going Its the first time this Eries we have really done PLAY FLYERS SUNDAY Had the Islanders won Thursday they would have had home ice for the sixth game But instead of heading to Uniondale NY the Canadiens will be back here final 41 think they are goin to play much like the Is an ders said Shutt The Islan ders have sort of patterned their style after the Flyers Its sort of an advantage for us playing the Islanders They do play very similar so we will bo sort of used to that defensive style Philadelphia plays Its going to be in teresting Im quite sure it will be very close checking Thats me thing Im positive it will be Will it be rougher really dont think so But we will just have to wait and see In the last two years that weve played them think weve only had one fight with them so think it will be very good series What we are going to have to do is aids with all highquality Ariens skate as hard as we can because thats how we win games After scoreless opening period the Canadiens out scored New York 31 in the secondperiod and had two more chances to score but just could not take advantage of their ortunities somethingwhtc hurt them in other games in the series think at times our lack of experience showed against this club said Islanders coach Al Arbour We cer tainly cant deny the effort our guys put forth We missed too many chances against this team We had the opportunities and we kept missing them Against club like that
