“ coaches ‘although. there | are

While everyone's attention is ‘turned to: the, Russia-Canada
hockey series there are two other hockey happenings that may go
by the boards unnoticed, Unnoliced by all that aren't involved that

45.

Both are in ihe realm of ‘professional? hockey and both Involve”

the NHL and ‘thal other league’ - in one instance the WHA in par-
ticular and in the other instance,the WHAindirectly,

The first is the scheduled inter- locking league exhibition hockey
games. The WHA Players Association has glven their okay lo the

. games, after promises of a few more benefits, of course, af a total
of lwelve ‘inter-locking ‘exhibition games have been scheduled
beginning on the 26th of thls month.-

As yelil hasn-t been announced which teams will participate, but
the’series provides yet another opportunity.t8 prove-ta the NHL
that while their calibre of play maybe a little more diluted than that
of the NHL, it isn’t that far behind. They've’ already shown the
NHLers that hey were far betler prepared for the Russian invasion
than thelr "1972" counter-parla:: .

The exhibition:series may be one step towards a merging of the ©
two leagues or it’may. lead to-a furlher breaching of the gap bet-
ween the two,. If the NHL thrashes all comers in the twelve game:
exhibition seriés, they can say “Look at us. See how much better -

we are (han that other league.” Of course, if the NHL executive has® -

any brains at all, they'll schédule the weakest’ teams against. the
WHA so thal they won't have to face a possible Montreal, Boston or
Philedelphia defeat by. "that other teague’:

The other experiment has: already started and will continue
through some NHL exhibition games. It involves a couple of rule
changes that will be tried and, if accepted by all the governors of
the league al a special meeling at the start of next month, will be
put inta ‘affect. for the 1974-75 season.

The reagan. for “the rule changes is to speed up ‘the game af
hockey,.-A sentiment which seems to echo a similiar statement”.
made by the WHA: ‘That other league appears to be forcing the
NHL out of complacancy and intoa little ‘color.’ - ~

The rule changes tobe attempted are on thal would allow pla er
changesonly during play, Which would mean no more line juddiing
between a-whistle and the faceoff, Players could anly leave the ice
or get onthe ice on the fly.. The other would see free shots, rather
than penalties for players delaying the game by falling on or
trapping the puck along the boards;

The free shot: sel-upi is a little complicated, The shot would come:
from: thé face-off dot in the circles lo‘either side of the goalie. The ~

rest of thé players on both teams would be lined up along the blue.or ~

red line (I'm just not sure which one),- The referee would blow blow
"the whisle, the shooter would fire the puck and ‘the rest of the -

players would be free to skate in aflerrebounds. Which should be

just lovely for the goal tenders, who would have additional strain
_ place oni thelr nervous system during the whole rig-a-morale. :

It'll be interesting ‘to see’the outcome of both expirements. If
they don’ t become completely lost inthe WHA-Russia series 74,
