Ley'’s blue-line blues

From page 24

already have him fired, if not almost immedi-
ately, certainly if the Canucks go out in the first
or second playoff rounds, This figures. It’s
show business. Selling tickets is the name of
the game, Ley’s continued presence won't do
anything for season’s ticket sales this surnmer.

‘Twas always thus. The day a ccach is hired
merely brings him one day closer to the eventu-
al day he’s fired. The onty question: did he not
do the job, or was he not given the proper

tools? Academic, really. It's the general manag- ,

er's job to supply the tools. He also hires and
fires, But a shortage of tools can be overcome
when goalies ratchet up their performances
frm good to unconscious, as Toronto's Felix
Potvin did last Sunday against the Canucks; as
Vancouver's Kirk MicLean did two years ago
on that glorious playoff run.

So, don’t give up ali hope for this team. But
don’t bet serious money on them, either.
Miracles, like lightning, setdom strike twice in

~ the same place.
