Blake Proves Hero Of Canadiens' Win

Nets Winning Goal as Montreal Takes Stanley Cup with 6-3 Win Over Bruins

MONTREAL. April 10 (CP)—The Stanley Cup, emblematic of world hockey supremacy, today is in the hands of Montreal's fast-stepping Canadiens following their 6-3 decision over Boston Bruins last night in the fifth game of the best-of-seven series.

Canucks, who took the National Hockey League championship for three years in a row and the cup in two of them, copped the title by taking four of five games The lone Boston win came last Sunday when Bruins eked out a 3-2 overtime win on a goal by Terry Reardon. Two other games also went into overtime.

GOALIES STAR

Canadiens were the Flying Frenchmen of yore last night as they set a pace that skated both themselves and Bruins almost into the ice but they had to come from behind twice before the Boston defense broke down in the third period under the terrific strain and permitted Canadiens to run up three goals for their margin of victory.

Both Bill Durnan in the Montreal nets, and Frankie Brimsek Boston custodian, again turned up with Both Bill Durnan in the Montreal nets, and Frankie Bnmsek Boston custodian again turned up with standout performances and, the Boston loss casts no reflections on Brimsek's puck-stopping abilities as time and time again he kicked out sure goals It was not until his defense went to pieces in front or him that the contest was really decided.

FANS SHOWER ICE

The game was held up several times, once for a five-minute period, when one of the largest crowds that ever jammed itself into the Montreal Forum, showered the ice with coppers, papers, rubbers and what have you.

BLAKE GETS WINNER

Boston's Bill Cowley opened the scoring around the five-minute mark of the opening period, but four minutes later Bobby Filion evened up proceedings. Bruins again took the lead on a goal by Bobby Bauer, but before the period ended Elmer Lach and Kenny Mosdell gave Canadiens the edge.

Milt Schmidt brought the Bruins right back into the game at the 7:15 minute mark of the middle frame for the only score of the period as both teams back-checked closely and afforded their respective goalkeepers the utmost protection.

The third period was marked by the same fast, rugged hockey that characterized earlier play and the period was more than halfway over when Hector (Toe) Blake tallied what proved to be the clincher on a relay from Lach.

The Boston rearguard then broke down and Murph Chamberlain and Dutch Hiller added a pair for good measure Chamberlain's goal was unassisted while Lach set up Hiller for the final marker of the contest.
