Original Toronto Star caption: It was only an exhibition, but last night's game against the Oilers was something special for John Brophy as he runs gamut of emotions in first appearance behind the bench before the home fans. The Leafs lost the game, 8-2, and Brophy was hard-pressed to find many effective Leafs.
