Original Toronto Star caption: Maple Leaf's goaltending holds the key to whatever chances the Toronto team has in Stanley Cup playoffs; according to Star hockey writer Frank Orr. The question is which goalie - or goalies - will have the opportunity to provide the superior play needed. Odds favor Ed Johnston; left; and Doug Favell; right. But coach Red Kelly has not done anything to encourage the general speculation that there will be an odd man out - Dune Wilson. The goalies confide they didn't like Kelly's rotation system but that personal friendship has prevented friction.
