Original Toronto Star caption: A Sure Goal? That would appear to be the case as Minnesota Saints' Paul Holmgren (24) has puck right in Toros' goal crease in last night's WHA game at the Gardens. But Holmgren flubbed his chance as defenceman Paul Heaver (22) dove across goalline and goalie Dave Tataryn scampered back. But Toros were far more charitable with the puck on other occasions as they lost, 5-3, before crowd of 6,243 fans.
