Morey, your analysis is spot-on as always. Thank you! I'm putting together exhibits for these for when I send them to the league office and other places (this...
I thought hockey bases winning and losing goalies on who is in net at the time of the last lead change, similar to how winning and losing pitchers are...
Nope. Here's a reference: How are goalie wins determined? Is it based on minutes played, or which goalie is on the ice when the winning goal is scored? ...
Back in the 1970-71 season Esso Service Stations (Esso is the trade name of Imperial Oil of Canada which is mainly owned by Exxon Oil) put out a series of NHL...
Your post comes as I prepare to move houses and (once gain) pack up all my hockey memorabilia. I have enjoyed going over my stuff, and my mother's stuff from...
Dave: Being the exact same age as you, I understand where you're coming from. Here is my advice: You should sell your memorabilia if you: A) need the money;...
Dave, I wonder if history has more meaning for our generation due to the fact that when we were growing up hockey or indeed all sports were not as "available"...

Not to mention a couple of other factors. Free Agency has made it tougher to identify a player with a club and for fans to bond to the players. The thought of...
On the topic on interesting blogs, I present some good independent websites if you have or have not seen them. I list these as top priority on my Oiler fan...
Bill: Very, very well stated. I would like to be able to disagree with at least some of what you have said - but alas, I can't, as every single point you make...
Thanks for the replies... they make sense; it is not as big a deal these days, and so perhaps they aren't treasured memories to save and revisit when older....
Bill, That's much how I feel as well. People work harder to make more money to buy things more often... instead of having things last longer so we don't have...
I don't disagree with much of what was said, but would like to add this perspective. When I was in my teens and my dad was in his late-30s and early 40s, he...

but the variety of old hockey footage on youtube.com is impressive and far outperforms other sports. Here's what I've seen: Multiple videos of the WHA pretty...
It is VERY low level stuff. SPHL cuts will go here and play-- the caliber will be semi pro level play.They are playing in youth arenas and the coaches so far...
Does anyone have any information on former ACHL Mohawk Valley player Dave Lair? Both the SIHR dbase and hockeydb have 1983-84 as his final season. This guy...
For a number of years (through the 1999-2000 edition), Rick Tocchet was listed in the annual NHL Guide & Record Book with 26 assists in 1986-87, and 301...
I remember an announcement that Elias found an extra assist for Tocchet, and that they changed the official totals a few years after the fact, but I believe...

A friend of mine came across a 1975-76 Hockey News interview with Ken Hodge and in it he expressed his anger at not being named to Team Canada 72. Hodge was...
