BEST IN YEARS The victory clinched for New York its finest half-season per- formance since 1941-42, giving the Rangers a 17-9-6 won-lost- tied record for 32 games. Gilbert's first-period goal was followed by a 12:42 marker from Ranger defenceman Harry Howell. Detroit defenceman Howie Young, recently acquired from Los Angeles, sent a slapshot past Ranger goalkeeper Ed Giacomin at 13:29, his first goal of the season.

STANLEY STITCHED Defenceman Allan Stanley was clobbered by an unknown player's stick during practice Thursday and now is sporting six stitches between his eyes. A little later, in the same practice, a hard shot by Jim Pappin smashed into goaltender Bruce Gamble's face -- but Gamble had a mask on. "The mask saved us," said Imlach, and saved is the word, because Gamble is filling in for regular netminders Johnny Bower and Terry Sawchuk. Bower had bones in his hand 'broken Wednesday when he stopped a Frank Mahovlich slapshot. Sawchuk has been sidelined since Dec. 8 with a back injury.
