the Southern Ontario Junior Hockey Association and he has been more than they ex pected What can you say about that guy He has all the tools you need to be good hockey player He can shoot pass and he uses his head Cripps said The only problem is that he is so good he has attracted the at tention of pro scouts and has already received two invita tions to ro camps We ont really know where he stands

existence it isnt having any players from Toronto For the first season in long time the club is in strong bargaining position and wont be forced to pay big money to players who decide to hold out We are so strong this season that we wont have to hand out any big contracts Cripps said If players hold out well just give them their walking papers and sign the next guy in line We cant go wrong The
