‘Canucks defencemen: let.
Harry Neale smile

_ VANCOUVER (CP) —
Harry Neale smiles slyly
when the names of three
young defenceman are

mentioned while analysing .

the recent five games in

eight days on. the road by-

Vancouver Canucks. .

. “Andy Schiiebener and
Neil Belland had an ex-
cellent trip and Michel Petit
shows signs of . coming
around,” Neale said
Monday. “They are part of
the reason why. we came
from behind three times to
win.”

Schliebener, 21, Belland,
22, and Petit, 20, all were
_ recalled during a.December
’ shakeup which saw Garth
Butcher sent to the minors
and the eventual trading of
veteran: Kevin McCarthy.

-Neale was. general
‘manager when the. three
were recalled. He now
doubles as head coach after
_ the firing last month of
_ Roger Neilson.

’ The Canucks are 5-6-2

wit .Neale'.sees: :betterdays
+vahead for the Canucks,even

though they’re fourth in the

Smythe Division, and it's

mainly because of’ the.

development of the young
defencemen.

TOP PERFORMANCE

'. “Schliebener played his
best game of the year
Sunday in Phiadelphia.and
Belland was great, too,”
Neale said. “Belland is

skating more with the puck, .

‘drawing people to him and

_ over the last 20 games of the

then feedirig the open man.
“Andy's play in our zone
ig ‘much better. His play
_with. the puck was a
weakness before; now it’s a
strength.”
Neale's

faith in

Schliebener became ob-

vious during the 6-5 win over
the Flyers | when
Schliebener. was paired with
veteran Jiri Bubla duying
the final minute of play..

'. “Sebliebener and. Belland .
- are starting to take some of
the major. shifts,” added

Neale. “We have no
hesitation to play them
against anyone.”" -

The Canucks are carrying —

seven defencemen. Doug
Halward sat out against the
Flyers with a bruised knee,
but will be ready Friday for
a home date against Pitt-
sburgh Penguins.

Neale said defence should
be a Vancouver strength in

around.

“Garth has got to make
sure at the next training
_ camp that nobody takes his
job from him. It's the first
time he’s been beaten out of
a job and we'll see how well
_he bounces back.” -
The Canucks also plan to
look at defenceman Doug
' Lidster following the Winter
Olympic Games, Lidster,
24, is a Kamloops, B.C.,
native who played U.S.
college hockey at Colorado
College and is one of the top
defenders on the Canadian
Olympic team,

“We should be able to
build quite a defence around
all these young players,”
added Neale. “Somtimes it
takes a trip to: minors to
build the confidence needed
to play in this league.
