Upset Sends Bruins
To First Stanley Cup
Finals Since 1916
BY the Assoeiutsd Press

BOSTON. April 6.-After pro-
viding the National Hockey
League with one of its most
startling playof upsets, Boston's
Bruins were in the Stanley Cup
final round for the first time
since 1916 after eliminating the
trophy defending Detroit Red
Wings.
Before 1900 admirers, the
Bruins dethroned the Red Wings.
MIL champions the last f1ve
seasons, AZ, last night for their
fourth victory in the six games
played in the beSt-of-Seven
post-season competition.
Center Ed Sanford opened the
scoring for the Bruins during the
fourth minute of blistering ac-
ton. Then he set up the next
two Boston tallieS by feeding his
scoring wingers, Johnny Peir-
son and Fleming Mackell, in the
second and third sessions.
Red Wings Fight FuriOusIy.
With their backs to the wall
throughout, the Red Wings
fought furiously every second,
but were blanked by Goalie
Sugar Jim Henry until 1905
of the middle session. At that
point Reg Sinclair registered
from close range and during the
14th minute of the finale, Capt.
Ted Lindsay raped in from the
crease to move the Red Wings to
2-3.
Then the Wings redoubled
their furious offensive efforts, but
rookie Leo Labine broke their
hearts at 1896 by stealing the
puck out of a center-ice Scrim-
mage and soloing for an unaS-
sisted fourth Boston tally.
The Bruins, while winding up
in third place, lost 10 and tied
two of their IA regular season
games with the Red Wings, who
specialized in lopsided victories.
Now Coach Lynn Patrick and
his jubilant Boston Stickmen will
mark time until the now dead
locked Montreal Canadiens and
Chicago Black Hawks play their
seventh and final game in Mon
treal tomorrow night.
Losers Held to FL Goals.
If Montreal wins, the Canadi-
ens-BruinS series will open in the
Canadian city April 9 and II
and move to Boston for the third
and fourth games, April II and
ID. A Chicago victory would re-
suit in Boston being the size of
the first two Stanley Cup final
games Wednesday and Sunday
nights.
After his Red Wings were de-
throned Coach Tommy Ivan
cited Goalie Henry as "the
player who hurt us the most"
During the six-game series the
Red Wings outShot the Bruins
by a 228-140 margin, but despite
winning the opening game in
Detroit, TO, we're limited to 81
goals. a total the Bruins
matched.
Lynn Patrick. jubilant Boston
coach, Showered his praises on
36-year-old winger Woody Du-
Mart, the leagues Oldest player.
That veteran was assigned to
cover Gordie Howe, the super
star who topped the 1928
scorers. The canny DuMart was
so effective defenSively that
Howe was limited to a pair Of
