Hawks fly by T’men

By DON SCHAFFER
Herald Staff Writer

The Kitimat Winterhawks
took advantage of almost all
of their scoring opportunities
while the Terrace Tim-
bermen were continually
unable to do the same in the
Winterhawks 7-2 win in the
Terrace arena Wednesday
night.

Kitimat led 3-1 after the
first period and 4-1 after the
second, but the play was
closer than (hose scores in
the first two periods.

The Timiermen missed
several open nets, couldn't
get shols away and passed
ihe puck away several times
in the first forty minutes,
and cutildn’t get back in the
game in the last twenty.

Mike Delisser go! Kitimat
a 1-0 lead on a goal-mouth
scramble al 5:25 of the first
period. Gord Kirichenko tied
the game for the Timbermen
on another serambly goal
less than a minute later, and
then at 7:47 the Winterhawks
took a lead they wouldn't
lose. Delisser beat Gerry
Lamming high to the stick
side fram right in front of the
Timbermen’s net.

Greg Kiryliuk and Brad
McDonald mixed it up at
9:41, and while they were
still sitting oul their five
minutes, Kitimat took a twa
Boal lead when Rendy
Schooley sel up Magel
Fournier for the 3-3 gual.
Sehooley lugged the puck in
aver the Terrace blueline
and was flallened by Greg
Paulson, but still managed to
get the puck to Fournier,
who beat Lamming to the
glove side.

Dino Viahadamis debated
acrosschecking penalty a bit
tao long with referee Wayne
Braid and tuok an exira lwo
for unsportsman-like con-
duct at 19:04, but the Tim-
bermen were unable to put
the powerplay to good use,
getting only one good chance
in the four minutes,

Terrace failed to clear the
puck out of their end and
gave up the 4-1 goal at 6:17 of
the second period, as Steve
Kerbrat and Derek Degoeij
combined to put Mark
Schooley alone by the side of
the Terrace net. Schooley
rade no mistakeon the play,
rapping in the shot low and in
the curner.

The Timbermen began to
look very flal as the second
period ran duwn, until Lance
Legouffe and Dan Fournier
got into a fight with 2:30 left
in the period.

Legouffe's penalty seemed
lo pick the Timbermen up,
and they put on heavy
pressure until the end of the
period but couldn't pul. the
puck in the Kitimal net,
Goalie Rey Garb made
several good stops, but was
fortunate on a couple af
occasions as the Timbermen
missed the net twice with
Garb out of position and
passed the puck away
several times.

They carried their
momentum over in the third
period until the halfway
mark when Brad Riley, who
played aggressively
throughout the game, touk a
nice pass frum Grant Casper
and got a shol away that beal
Garb while carrying a
Kitimat defender on his
hack,

After that though, it was all
Kitimat. The Winterhawks
had a goal taken away at.
11:19 when Braid ruled that
McDonald kicked the puck

in, Al 13:30, Mark Schooley
won the draw, got the puck to
Kevin Trach who shot it
acruss the nel. John Rich
was in the perfect spot to tip
it behind Lamming, which he
did, making the score 5-2, '

A minute and a half later it
was 6-2 when Ron Egan's
shat went off Lamming's
gluve into the net. Mark
Schooley finished the scoring
With 1:45 lefl as he banged in
a rebound from a
Viahadamis shol.

The Timbermen couldn't
make it back into the game
as they have done in
previous home games,
Kitimat forechecked well
and applied pressure
throughoul the game, and
although they pulled away
mustly in the last half of the
third period, they were full
marks for the victory.

Next PNWHL action is
tonight as the Granisle
Lakers travel to Houston to
meel the Luckies. Both the
Timbermen and the Win-
lterhawks are on the road this
weekend, Terrace in
Smithers and Granisle, and
Kitimat in Granisle and
Burns Lake.

Sutcliffe top NL rookie

NEW YORK (AP) — Rick
Sutcliffe, a rock-solid starter
on a troubled Los Angeles
Dodger pitching staff, was
named loday as the National
League's rookle of the year
for 1978.

Sutcliffe, who led the
Dodger staff in victories with
17 after starting spring
training with little hope of
making the baseball] team,
was an easy winner over
outfieldera Jeff Leonard of
Houston Astros and Scot
Thompson of Chicago Cubs,

The Baseball Writers’
Association of America gave
Sutcliffe 20 out of a possible
24 votes, while Leonard
received three and Thomp-
80m one.

“*T still don't belleve I won
it," said an incredulous but
happy Sutcliffe, who had a
17-10 record and a 3.46
earned-run average in the
242 innings he pitched. ‘I
didn’t think that pitchers had
as good a chance as the
everyday player because
they don't get the exposure. I

Second string
is first-rate

The way Atlanta Hawks’
second team is playing these
days, coach Hubie Brown
might consider making it his
first.

“Our second unit, just like
last night, brought us back
with an outstanding
defensive effort,’ Brown
said Wednesday night after a
106-89 National Basketball
Association victary over
Portland Trail Blazers. ‘It’s
80 beautiful to see Charlle
Criss, that little rascal, open
up the way he did. He’s
making the big splash for
us "

Criss, one of the NBA’s
amallest players at 5-foot-8,
scored 12 points for the

Hawks coming off the bench.

The suddenly-revitalized
Hawks improved their
Central Division-leading
record to 15-10 with the
victory.

Elsewhere in the NBA,
Philadelphia 76ers defeated
Washington Bullets 120-102;
New. Jersey Nets beat
Detroit Pistons 98-89; Boston
Celtics turned back Denver
Nuggets 119-97; Milwaukee
Bucks whipped Indiana
Pacers 67-78; Houston
Rockets edged Cleveland
Cavallera 113-111; San Diego
Clippers stopped Golden
State Warriors 114-108 and
Seattle SuperSonics beat
Phoenix Suns 127-116.

AN NHL FIRST

Smith scores, but loses

By NEIL STEVENS
The Canadian Presa

New York Islanders’ Billy
Smith became the first
goaltender In National
Hockey League history to be
credited with a goal but he
would have much rather
seen the Islanders take two
Points Wednesday night,

Smith's name goes into the
record books but the points
‘go to the lowly Colorado
Rockies, who defeated the
struggling Islanders 7-4.

Early in the third period,
when the Rockies pulled
goalie Bill McKenzie for a
Sixth attacker and the
Islanders skating shart-
handed on a delayed penalty,
Colorado's Rob Ramage sent
an errant pass sailing the
length of the ice inta his
team's vacant net.

Smith was credited with
the goal because he was the
Inst Islander to touch the
puck, having blocked a shot
before Ramage's pass.

“All you could do was just
laugh,” said Colorado coach
Don Cherry, “It was great
for the crowd but it's hard on
the coach's old ticker.” .

The goal was first credited
to New York defenceman
Dave Lewis but the officials
gave it to Smith after they
viewed the videotape of the
play following the game,
They ruled that Smith was
the last Islanders player to
touch the puck, making a
save, before Rampage’s
errant pasa.

Smith’s goal ended a
Boalless drought for
Koaltenders that stretched
through some 62 years ~
17,268 games including

, playoffs.

“This Is a highlight, but it
was so badly damaged by the
way we played,"’ Smith said.
“It's nice for me, but we
played so bad as a team I
didn't even have a drink to
celebrate,”

Smith has been with the
club since it entered the NHL
for the 1972-73 season. The
blue, white and orange
jerseys of the Islanders did
not exactly cause opponents
to tremble — the record was
