Nevertheless, Quinn's debut had one drawback-a

Colorado jumped ott to a 1-0 lead.

Stuck to Game Plan

"I didn't think there was any reason to panic because
there was plenty of time left-two-and-one-half periods
-and I knew we had the better hockey team. I just stuck
to the game plan and I figured it would work out."

It did, too. The Flyers won the game, 6-2.
But for Quinn, it was more than just a game.
"Sure I was excited," said Quinn, whose vantage
point for hockey games was the bench during a 12-year
playing career that ended last season with the Atlanta
Flames.
"All the other times when I have been on the bench
I have had no control over the personnel, who my line-
mates are. It's a lot different."
Normally, Quinn sits in the press box watching the
game and joins the club between periods. Sometimes,
he offers advice to Shero because of the better perspec-
tive one gets higher up in the stadium.
On this Monday, the two switched jobs but Shero
only came to the locker room between the first and the
second period.

Flyers Dominate

"I guess he wanted to hear what I told the boys,"
said Quinn, who didn't have to do much yelling. By the
time the period ended, the Flyers were dominating the
game and were leading, 2-1.

Letting others coach the team is nothing new for
Shero, who occasionally had Mike Nykoluk behind the
bench before Nykoluk moved this season from assistant
coach to coordinator of player development.

"It's not so much the perspective as it is for the
good of the coach," said Shero of his decision to watch
the game from the press box. "You can't feel the emotion
up there. You can't tell when a player is tired.

"But he's a coach, too and letting him get behind
the bench for a game makes him feel he's contributing
more. That's important to the overall effort. He does
everything the way I would do it. He knows the players
as well as I do now."

Indeed, the styles of the two men seemed identical

.raRangers, Espo Face Flyers April 6

by Joe Kadlec

"Phil Esposito combined reach, strength, intelligence
and competitiveness to the degree that the only way he
can be countered is with superbly coordinated defensive
play."

That was a scouting report on the greatest scorer in
the history of the NHL a few years ago.

Esposito and the New York Rangers are the Flyers'
next opponent at The Spectrum on Thursday , 'April 6;
8:05p.m.

As as member of the Boston Bruins, Esposito set the
NHL. record for most points in a season with 152 in 78
games, playing on a line with Ken Hodge and Wayne
Cashman.

Today, Esposito is center on a Rangers' line that has
Mark Heaslip on right wing and Dan Newman on left wing.

t "It's easy playing on Esposito's line now," says Hea-
slip. "Dan and I do most of the work in the corners . We
bat the puck to death and then give it to Phil."

"Yeah," said Newman. "When we finish with the puck,
it's square."

A flashing red light. A clean crunching check. There's nothing on
ice quite like it. Except the cold, crisp taste of Pepsi-Cola.
So grab yourself a Pepsi next time you yell up a thirst. Because
Pepsi's got that breakaway flavor that beats the others cold.

ation, at least not yet. It's just that Williams and his
employers have different ideas about how much he
should be paid and they're having trouble finding the
level at which both sides can compromise. The Tiger
isn't angry at anybody, nor has he any wish to alienate
his bosses or burn any bridges behind him. On the other
hand, he owes it to himself, as a pro athlete, to stand
firm on his own self-estimate. Maybe if his agent were a
Torontonian, the problem would have been solved by
now. But since it hasn't been, The Tiger, who has no
doubts whatever about his own abilities, is confident the
Leafs will have to consider him more valuable this spring
than they did a year ago. In other words, he won't be
the one who loses on account of the delay.

And there's an obvious fact the Leafs should think
about. Williams undoubtedly has. The Tiger's toughness
and courage are assets many other NHL teams desper-
ately need.

Witnessing the growth of Tiger Williams has been
one of the pleasures to be savored while observing
the Leafs at close range the past few winters.

He wasn't welcomed into the lodge when he first
came here. He hadn't made the varsity immediately
you'll recall. He'd gone to the minors and wasn't sum-
moned to the NHL lineup until midterm. Some of the
veterans who were with the team at that time shunned
him. They let it be known they felt he was uncouth. He
might order the wrong kind of wine or sip it through a
straw, something like that. He'd tell anybody to go jump
in the lake (or words to that effect) if he felt like it. On
ice, he didn't seem to be much more than a roughneck,
with little apparent skill.

Things have changed dramatically since then.
Under Darryl Sittler's captaincy, there are no cliques
and no outcasts. The Leafs work hard at maintaining
camaraderie and enthusiasm and Williams, having
earned everybody's respect, is one of the leaders in that.
He's still no sophisticate but he knows how to read
a menu now and does own a navy pinstripe. He is bluntly
honest, without a ounce of pretense, and he's a very
