New York, Dec. 20.—(A)—One thing which the critics of modern hockey usually fail to consider when they object to the game's low scoring and dull moments is the quality of the goal-tending in the National Hockey league.
Perhaps the best example of the difference good goal-tending can make was seen in New York, where Detroit's Red Wings, leaders of the American division, Tuesday night turned back the Americans 1 to 0.
Last Sunday, with their star goalies, Roach and Worters, out of action, these teams played a 4-4 tie.
It was just a fluke that produced any scoring at all at Boston as Thompson and Kerr tried to outdo each other in the nets. Halfway through an overtime period Bob Gracie tried a pass and the result was a goal that won the game for Boston, 1-0. The puck struck Marvin Wentworth's stick and caromed past Kerr for the only goal.
Half the scoring in the 2-to-2 Chicago-Ottawa duel, which sent the Senators past the Maroons into third place in the Canadian section of the league, came in the overtime period.
