Bobby played 26 games as a Chicago Black Hawk .20 in the 1976-77 season from Oct 7th until Jan 27th. Then in the 78-79 season another 6 games from Oct 11th...
Orr played Oct. 7, 9, 10, 13, 15, 17, 24, 27, 31; Nov. 19, 27; Dec. 1; Jan. 12, 15, 16, 18, 19, 22, 23, 27. Don't know why he put himself through four games in...

Someone had a zip file of all the nhl results from 1917-2003 and I seemed to have lost the file. Could you please send it to me as I'm doing some research on...
Are you on the Hockey Summary Project list (also on Yahoo! Groups)? You can find the results in the Files section. HSP is also open to people helping out with...
Just an update on this ongoing story. Heard a legal opinion about this last night on the radio. The lawyer indicated that the "cap" on lawsuit damages is the...
Ah, yes, the neverending debate. If the question of liability is settled then the only question will be how much money Bertuzzi has to pay the Moore family. I...
Hello Everybody: I am pleased to announce that my book on the old California Golden Seals/Oakland Seals is finally available. It's called "Shorthanded: The...
Brad, Let me be the first to say congratulations! As an author of a book myself I have a good idea of how much work you put into this. This is something you ...
What is it going to take for the NHL to understand that they have to mete out their punishment in a way that discourages marginal players from taking a run at...
Leslee, Nothing will change until somebody dies and the offender goes to jail. We have seen Ted Green get his head caved in and the NHL give Wayne Maki the ...
Ahh we get back to "Craig's Crusade" alias "Todd Bertuzzi should be guillotined or sent to Devil's Island or at the very least caned 100 times live on CBC".:)...
I'd like to get people's opinions on "publicity stunt" hockey players. This has been happening more and more lately. A few examples I can think of are: * The...
I have to compare these stunts to things that have taken place in minor league baseball. The Veeck family has a history of stunts to bring in fans, many were...
... What is your opinion on counting these "players" as official "alumni" of whatever team or league? That's the basis for my dissatisfaction. Is Manute Bol a...
It's minor-league sport, and a certain amount of hucksterism is to be expected. Ditto a greater willingness to experiment than the major leagues can afford to...
In the case of the St. Louis Browns midget, whose name was Eddie Gaedel, this was in the major leagues, not the minors, and the next day, the American League...
Orpik got away light...but at the same time we criticize the NHL when it also happens in other sports too which is Craig...a FACT. In the NFL we have a guy...
I wholeheartedly agree Ralph! If a market needs this sort of thing to draw fans they don't deserve a team, It makes a sport a joke and quite frankly sickens...
I have spent quite a bit of time watching young guys work for years to get a chance to play one day of professional hockey. Most don't make it and it is a ...

In a message dated 3/9/2006 8:24:24 AM Eastern Standard Time, ... Let me state unequivocally that I agree with just about everything you say. Violence in...
... I'd not count them. I had a long, drawn-out justification written, but the bottom line is that they aren't out there for the purpose intended by the game....
Perhaps you'd better share that long, drawn-out justification, because I don't see how Gordie Howe's purpose for being in a Detroit Vipers uniform was any...
David Legwand has scored six seconds into overtime to give Nashville a victory over the Canucks. I'm wondering if this is the shortest OT game ever played; the...
Larry, I concur with your view on publicity stunts. With the AHL, and other minors having little to no national exposure (i.e. national TV rights) they have...
Today the Peoria Rivermen unvailed their 25th anniversary logo. While the name "Peoria Rivermen" has been in use since the ealy 1980s, I thought when the...
Bill. Just a couple of points here. 1. I know nothing about the Johnson or a case of beer drinking players in Minnesota. That is why I have not commented. Care...
... Technically, you're right. When a team "moves" to a different league, it is not the same franchise. The AHL Rivermen is not the same franchise as the ECHL...
