Of course, Michel Plasse will always be remembered as the first professional goalie to score a goal. As a member of the Kansas City Blues of the old CHL, he...
As far as I can tell, here's a list of former players who passed in 2006: - Michel Plasse - Dr. Bobby Copp - Andrei Lomakin - Doug Buhr - George Gardner - Joe...
Joe posted this years ago. At the time, I thought Provo didn't have an indoor arena. In fact Provo did up to the early to mid 70s. (It was turned into a Reams...

Would anyone know who coined the term "Original 6" to stand for the NHL teams of 1942-67? I'm trying to figure out when the term came into use. Joseph...
Does anyone else find it odd that the NHL lists W-L-OT in their standings? Shootout losses are lumped in with OT losses. If they are going to do that, why not...
... No. It's standard practice for any league with a shootout. The third column is OT or SO losses, depending on when the "loser point" kicks in. If the point...
And apparently, you can't call it a loss, either. For example, a team plays 41 games. It wins 18, loses 17 in regulation time, and loses 6 more via overtime or...
Joe, I'm not sure who it is, but he sure did the "original" NHL a dis-service. Instead, s/he should have coined the term "Founding Four" in honour of the...
I prefer that the standings distinguish OTLs from SOLs because they are different ways of losing. Lots of OTLs means a team has trouble 4 on 4; lots of SOLs...
I searched the Globe and Mail archives, sports section only: The first use of the words were on June 26, 1969: "... each to stock two new teams, instead of the...
Can someone provide me with the definition of a "Junior A" league, along with nuances? I was under the impression that there are a number of Canadian Junior A ...

I accidently deleted the 1942-43 schedules/results for the NHL, AHL, and EHL. Does anyone have a copy that they wouldn't mind sending me? It would be most...
I don't know what that league is supposed to be. USA Hockey has a rather complicated system of rating leagues based on pay to play and calibre. There was a...
... That is correct. A Junior "A" league in Canada is one categorized as such by its Branch (and, thus, by Hockey Canada). There is generally only one Junior A...
... I seem to have stumbled into a rat's nest here. There is a hockey scout who is pushing this issue with me. He is employed by a SPHL team and a UHL team,...
Indeed, the Metro junior league was a Junior B loop until it became a renegade league and declared itself Jr. A. (Teams from that league, such as Bramalea...
Just east of Toronto, there are so many Jr. A teams it isn't funny. If there were proper stewardship, many of these would be Junior B. This season, the...
... Those leagues have had the advantage of not having any Junior A competition in their regions, making their calibre near Junior-A level. No doubt they are...
