The Generals rallied their

they were led by Goalie Don
Campbell, who did a superb job
in the nets until painfully in
jured late in the last period.
Successive goals by Andy
Milne and Ike Scott tied it up
at 14:13 of the last period.
Neither team could score de-
spite several good opportunities
! in the 10-minute sudden-death
overtime.
Campbell received deep cut
on the back of his left hand
when, during a Washington at
tack, he lost his gloves and was
sliced by q teammates skate
while attempting to grab the
puck.
Play was suspended for 3S
minutes while Campbell, who
had an artery and a tendon
cut deep enough to require
nine stitches, was treated. He
was unable to continue in the
nets because his bandaged hand
was too large for a glove
Campbell was replaced by
Chuck Holloway.
Before leaving the game,
Campbell was credited with 81
saves, considerably more than
the average for a game. Holda-
