Notes

Original Toronto Star caption: 'If it get past me; it's my fault.' That's philosophy of Tony Esposito;rookie netminder of Chicago Black Hawks; who leads NHL in shutouts with 10. He feels he should be able to handle every puck fired at him in a manner shown here. He also spurns alibis; such as Hawks' tiredness in 3-2 loss to Leafs last night.
