Original Toronto Star caption: Brought to his knees: Toronto Maple Leafs, in Quebec city tonight for their first exhibition game against the Nordiques, went through a tough practice yesterday at the hands of coach John Brophy, a workout which apparently took quite a toll on veteran defenceman Borje Salming (right). Brophy's gunning to get rid of the black cloud hanging over the team.
