Say What?!

www.thehockeynews.com has an interesting new feature up on their website, which should be fairly entertaining. The 'Say What?!' feature was introduced yesterday with a quote from Shane O'Brien. It wasn't exactly funny, but it definitely showed how physical of a player O'Brien is. You can RSS Feed 'Say What?!' here.

Film explores fans' passion about past, future of Whalers hockey
Published 9/17/2008 by Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy
In the Sept. 16 issue of The Hockey News (the one with Vincent Lecavalier on the cover ... check out the digital edition here), I have an article called "Longing for the Good Ol' Days" that profiles fans of some defunct teams: The Hartford Whalers, Quebec Nordiques and Winnipeg Jets. Specifically, the piece deals with the emotional bonds that remain unbroken with these franchises, and how some of these fans are determined to bring the NHL back to their cities. I never really connected the plights of Hartford and ...

The runner-up curse

Here's a zany figure from The Hockey News' editor-in-chief Jason Kay from the magazine's latest issue: Nobody has really proposed an appropriate term for the Stanley Cup loser, however. That affliction runs far deeper than a garden variety hangover. Consider the past 11 Cup finalists have combined to win one playoff round the year after losing the big one. That's not a typo. The 2001 Dallas Stars managed to beat Edmonton in the opening round of the postseason after succumbing in the final to New Jersey the previous year. The other 10 finalists either failed to qualify for the ...

Which Hockey Guy Are You?

... More money than brains.  This guy is a mediocre player who compensates for poor skating and a crappy slapshot by always having the latest, hottest gear.  Watching him suit up is like flipping through the Hockey News equipment reviews issue.  He starts by stuffing his chubby frame into skin tight UnderArmour, followed by massive, ultralight pads.  He shows up with shiny new blades every year, claiming that the last pair "just never felt right" and boasting that he feels faster because his new skates only weigh 17 nanograms.  A couple of weeks ...

... bar the six players from international competition such as future Olympic Games or World Championships. Portzline also threw out this little tidbit about Filatov-“Looked up the translation of Nikita Filatov’s name. Nikita means ‘inconquerable.’ Filat, or Filatov, means ‘God-guard.’ Inconquerable God Guard. Not a bad name.”  While it has no bearing on his ability to play hockey or to make the Jackets’ squad out of camp, it is a pretty sweet name. Much cooler than “Dan Parker” anyway. The Hockey News 2008-2009 Yearbook was released, and it predicts a ...
