Early ta ttle day his 8-year-old son, Robbie was injured playing, hockey. A skate broke his nose and he required 2Vi hours of surgery. The only bright side for the 12,274 fans was the goaltending of Rogatien Vachon and the hustle of the rookie line headed by Vic Venasky. Vachon kept the Kings in the game as he fielded his position with the agility of a major league shortstop.
