The red-haired centreman ponders that question for all of two seconds then replies: just seems that everything was leaning Montreal's way If you caught on with that team you want to be anywhere else in hockey" Jarvis admits that he was a bit disappointed at first when Toronto Maple Leafs traded his rights to the Canadiens would have i been nice to play so close ISglto he says The Leafs claimed the 20-year-old Brantford native in the second round of the National Hockey League i draft and then traded him to the Canadiens a few weeks later for Greg Hubick a defenceman-left winger who had spent the past three season with Nova Scotia Voyageurs in the American League While all of this was going on Jarvis also was considering an offer from Houston Aeros who had taken him in the World Hockey Association draft On Monday he finally made up his mind Breaking into the Montreal lineup may be harder than cracking a safe Few rookies ever make it with the Flying Frenchmen who have stars coming out of their ears and several farmhands in Nova Scotia who could play for most other NHL clubs The Canadiens have always stressed speed and wide-open hockey going for colorful players who can fly and fill the net with pucks Some of them however play hockey as though on a one-way street Checking is something they do only at the airport when they want to get rid of their luggage Junior teams Blue
