50 Years Ago in Hockey - Crozier the New "Mr. Zero"

October 30th, 2014 Detroit Red Wings rookie goaler Roger Crozier earned his third shutout in only four games last night as he and his mates blanked the hapless Boston Bruins 2-0 at the Olympia in Detroit.  It was the only scheduled National Hockey League game. Wings tied for first The victory moves the Red Wings into a tie for first place in the NHL...
Does Nazem Kadri Have Superstar Potential?

Does Nazem Kadri Have Superstar Potential?

January 21st, 2014 Perhaps the Toronto Maple Leafs should think about trading Nazem Kadri a little more often. A little after a week since GM Dave Nonis said he would be "willing to trade" the 23-year-old, Kadri has scored 5 points in 3 games, producing physical, committed performances. In short, he's played like someone desperate to prove himself...
NCAA Hockey: Time to Do Away With the Fly-By Bench Celebrations

NCAA Hockey: Time to Do Away With the Fly-By Bench Celebrations

December 25th, 2013 Recently, the subject of the fly-by in the NHL has come up and some NHL players are starting to do away with the practice. In case you’re wondering what a “fly-by” is, all five players skate by their bench, high-fiving their teammates, after scoring goal. I think it’s time for the college hockey teams to do away with this...
Canucks Corner - Special Thanksgiving Edition

Canucks Corner - Special Thanksgiving Edition

November 30th, 2013 I'm not sure what to tell you, except that as of week 9 the Vancouver Canucks had just ended an eight-game losing streak after defeating the Ottawa Senators 5-2. Before Ottawa, the Canucks hadn't scored more than two goals per game in the last eight games. Roberto Luongo thus far has been standing on his head in the net, and so has Eddie...
Rogers Must Retain Don Cherry

Rogers Must Retain Don Cherry

November 27th, 2013 Grapes could be no more. Tuesday ushered in a new hockey television deal for Canadian hockey as Rogers Sportsnet and the NHL agreed to a historic 12 year, $5.2 billion deal to gain the majority of hockey media rights across Canada. Rogers also gains control of every single game in the Stanley Cup playoffs, including the Stanley Cup...
Don Cherry Unfortunately Correct On Hertl Goal

Don Cherry Unfortunately Correct On Hertl Goal

October 17th, 2013   Even the most obnoxious person can be right. Some people will self-flagellate before admitting an enemy is correct, because looking foolish is apparently preferable to making concessions.  So instead of embarrassing themselves in this manner, it's better for those unable to stomach Don Cherry to admit he was right about Tomas...
Third Liners Excelling Early

Third Liners Excelling Early

October 16th, 2013 They are known as the unglamorous. They are the guys who are expected to do the dirty work. They are more known as the checking line, more defensive blanket than dynamic scorer. They are oft-forgotten. Third line players in the NHL aren't the ones skipping the line at nightclubs around North America, but early on in the 2013-14 season...

Don Cherry's Dream: Canadian Provincial Cup

Don Cherry is known for being an outspoken advocate of Ontario hockey players, a stance which led to a well known feud with Brian Burke. The truth is Ontario does provide far and away the most players at the NHL level, but the questions still remains whether Ontario could actually put a team on the ice that would beat the other...
To Reclaim its Past Glory, Les Glorieux Must First Reclaim the Past

To Reclaim its Past Glory, Les Glorieux Must First Reclaim the Past

June 1st, 2013 Hockey is an emotional game. A game can turn on a dime from momentum swings caused by a bruising body check, a great save or even a passionate chant from the crowd. Games are determined by the final tally written on the scoreboard but ultimately, games are won and lost by the sum of all of the little victories that add up to that end...
Anthony Duclair – The Next Ones: NHL 2013 Draft Prospect Profile

Anthony Duclair – The Next Ones: NHL 2013 Draft Prospect Profile

May 8th, 2013 Watching your name drop in the rankings from month to month can never be easy.  More so if your name was being mentioned as a possible 1st round draft pick.  It's been an up and down season for Quebec's Anthony Duclair.  From an ankle injury early in the season, to getting suspended a few games by GM Patrick Roy, to being selected to...
Fighting in Hockey - A Fan's Struggle

Fighting in Hockey - A Fan's Struggle

March 11th, 2013 Twenty-six seconds into a game between Ottawa and Toronto, a hockey fight occurred (warning, this video may disturb some viewers). http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k7k1S2juFDw I've been watching hockey for close to 40 years. Growing up, players like Terry O'Reilly and Hammer Schultz were as well known as Guy Lafleur and Marcel...
The Death of the Hurry Up Face-off

The Death of the Hurry Up Face-off

February 19th, 2013   A few years ago, the NHL made a number of minor rule changes in an attempt to speed up the game.  Perhaps the most direct attempt at reducing the length of time it took to complete a contest was the introduction of the “hurry up face-off” procedure. The rule reads like this: 76.3 Procedure – As soon as the line...
Cherries of Wrath: Don Cherry Agrees with Burke Firing

Cherries of Wrath: Don Cherry Agrees with Burke Firing

January 26th, 2013 When the 2012-13 NHL Lockout came to a close, players, fans and the like were all happy to have hockey back.  But for the true north strong and  free, Canadian Hockey fan, they were happy to have 'Hockey Night in Canada' back and more importantly, they were happy to have the great media icon, Don Cherry back. On the first night...

Don Cherry Thinks Roberto Luongo Would Pass On The Maple Leafs

November 6th, 2012   With the NHL still in full lockout mode everything is pretty quiet. That is unless your name is Don Cherry! Cherry, who has managed to stay in the headlines throughout the lockout, appeared on Toronto radio station The Fan 590 today. Cherry offered up his opinion on the recent rumors that a deal for Roberto Luongo between...

The Five Most Ridiculous Jerseys of All-Time

  With the advent of the internet, most hockey fans have now seen dozens of articles listing the ugliest jerseys of all-time. We are quite familiar with the usual suspects, from the ‘fish stick guy’ Islanders jerseys to the 1970s-era Vancouver Canucks’ ‘giant V’ uniforms. In fact, it seems as if every time a top ten...
