MONTREAL (CP) - A
total of 65 players were
selected in the National
Hockey League expansion
draft Wednesday, but. the
name that caused the great-
eat stir in the ballroom of a
downtown hotel was that of
leftwinger Bobby Hull.

Hull, reclaimed by

Chicago Black Hawke after -

retiring from Winnipeg Jets
of the World Hockey
Association: last. season,
returned to the Jets’ fold
when general-manager John
Ferguson selected him in the

_ third round, ninth over-all.

It was the most’ notable
move in a draft that had
‘essentially

gentlemen's agreements,
but Ferguson said he had no
choice except tu select the 40-
year-old Hull, despite there
being little likelihood of his
rejoining the Jeta.

“Bobby would love to play
in Chicago," said Ferguson,

> “but I’m not going to let him

go there if I'm going to get
theshort end of the stick. It's
a matter of business."
Coach Tom MeVie said
that Winnipeg was forced to
pick Hull. when the Black
Hawks refused to give the
Jets what they considered a
quality player in return for
Winnlpeg ignoring him in the
att

“He's a great hackey
player,” said McVie, “but
they weren't going to let the
guy go. Who knows — maybe
we can talk the guy into
playing for us. He’s the best
left winger in hockey.”

Jack: Kelley, director of
hockey operations for
Hartford Whalers, endorsed
Ferguson’s strategy, . °

“I think John did what he
had to do,”* said Kelley, “Put
in the same position, ] would
have done the -very ‘same
thing.” 6 bed

position now, Kelley replied:

. “Having a hunch what John
Tight do, { have no com-

ment.” .
Responding to a
suggestion that Hull might
be dealt to New York
Rangers to be reunited with
onetime Jets ‘line-mates
Anders Hedberg and Uif Nil-
sson, the Hartford executive

-said that:was: at: poesibility.

- Although ° ‘the’ "talent
available for drafting wasn’t
plentiful, spokesmen for the
four new franchises —
Winnipeg, Hartford, Quebec
Nordiques and Edmonton
Oilers — were unanimously
content with their acqui-
sitlons.

“We actually did better
than we had planned,” said
Larry Gordon, general
manager of the Oilers, whose
notable selections included
winger Cam Connor from
Montreal Canadiens, de-
fenceman Lee Fogolin from
Buffalo Sabres, left-winger
-Inge Hammarstrom from St.
Louls Blues and goaltender

‘Doug Favell from Colorado

Rockies.

Gordon confirmed that
Edmonton’s pick of Connor
was part of a pre-arranged
deal with the Stanley Cup
champion Canadiens. The
Oilers later announced they

‘had acquired forwards Dan

Kelley, who went heavily
‘for defensive personnel such
as Al Sims from Boston, Rick
Ley from Toronto and Nick
Beverley from Colorado,
said that the Whalers were a
lot better off than some of the
recent NHL expansion
teams. - ‘ .

“We were surprised to
pick up a guy like Sims who
can give depth to our defence
and is versatile in that he can
also kill penalties,’ Kelley
said, ,

“The only guy we really

After their three _first-

tively.

Hawks |

WINNIPEG (CP) — Left
winger Bobby Hull sald
Wednesday night he plans to
play again next season and ia
close to reaching an
agreement with Chicago
Black Hawks of the National
Hockey League. «|

Hull, who was claimed in
Wednesday’s NHL draft by
Winnipeg Jets, the team he
retired from early last
season, said the Jets should
get something in return for
him from the Black Hawks.

“] have stated, in as many
waysas I possibly could, that
1 felt Chicago should com-
pensate Winnipeg some
way,” sald Hull, who left the
Black Hawks to join the Jets
in 1972, when the World
Hockey Association was just
getting off the ground.

The 40-year-old Hull said it
was proposed that Chicago
leave Jets centre Terry Rus-
kawski alone last Friday
when the established NHL
teams drafted back players
from the four former WHA
clubs —Winnipeg, Edmonton
Oilers, Quebec Nordiques
and Hartford Whalera —
whose rights they held.

“We tried originally to saw
it off, to leave Ruskowski
alone,” said Hull, “They (the
Black Hawks) didn’t want to
hear about that.
