Tonight while driving home I heard former player agent and Maple Leaf official Bill Watters state that the Boston Bruins of the late 60's early 70's should...
I'm hoping some one will be able to help me, I'm looking for the 2007-08 stats for the Manitoba AAA Midget Hockey League. If anyone has them I'd appreciate it...
Coaching may not have played much of a role with the Bruins. For my book "The Rangers, The Bruins, And the End of an Era" I spoke to Ed Westfall and asked him...
There is currently a trial for events that took place in a QMJHL game last year. The accused was a minor at the time of the events and so his name can't be...
While there is much to be said for the talent level of that team, I have to agree it wasn't pure coaching. I had heard this stuff about the Bruins before, one...
... official Bill Watters state that the Boston Bruins of the late 60's early 70's should have been a dynasty and won 4-5 Stanley Cups with the talent that...
Interesting that this is coming up just after the sentencing of a certain Mississauga rugby player/OHLer/NHL draftee, who killed a fellow player after a rugby...
Just to add another incident to this. Just last week, the former Victoria Salmon Kings enforcer, Robin Gomez, was acquitted for sucker punching one of the...
... No, this is a different case. In fact, the partial visor has been partly blamed for this by the defense (I didn't entirely figure that one out, but got the...
I have to take issue with some of the statements made on this subject. First, the defendant's defence was not "its all in the game." His defense was it was in...
Well I think I know the code as well as anyone having played the game, and having scouted it for 25 plus years and as well as having been a coach.and I played...
Phil Esposito has said on XM Radio that his Bruins should have won more Cups, but he says the real reason they didn't had little to do with coaching and more...
Tom, I understand that you disagree, but a rebuttal here regarding the Mississauga case. First, the defendant did say it was self-defense, but that it was all...
The OHL player in question was drafted by the Islanders. The player granted an interview to Chris Botta - the blogmaster of www.islanderspointblank.com on...

Back when I was writing the Junior Hockey Blog my masthead contained a quote I believe came from Stafford Smythe - "Hockey must be a great sport to survive the...
Hi Marc, It was a Smythe, but I am sure it was Conn Smythe and it was in the 1930s when he said it. Check Smythe's autobiography for the quote. I think it...

From today's Hamilton, (Ontario) Spectator. So from reading this can I surmise that the NHL is saying to Hamilton, get someone else to front a bid for you and...
Actually it probably is motivated by the fact that Ballsillie tried to string arm his way in.as I have said many times in the past.NEVER take these guys to...
Even in the 70s, is 8,000 a game really supporting the WHA? What helped the WHA more than anything else was the arena issue. New building in Cleveland, NHL...
... Phoenix is all about an arena issue. The NHL gets the city of Glendale to pitch in and build an arena and then they are going to let the team move five ...
Point by point James. There is more to it than the arena issue in Glendale.yes it is part of the problem but there is also a Camerone mentality (Foreign Legion...
Actually 8000 a game was pretty good for a new league. Now when you look closer at WHA attendance in Canada it is actually more impressive than that.Edmonton...
Besides hating the *Balsillie* bid, Bettman hates the Coyotes ownership group. Further, he has defecated on the city of Glendale. The current bid that Bettman...
Note, when I say that the goal is 50 % capacity I don't mean in a really small building! :-) And before one brings up the KHL.European hockey has entirely...
You don't need millions of Americans to "switch".just x number of CANADIANS who want their cities to have teams and resent Bettman. The Washington Post ...
