This Day In Hockey History (10/29)

The snow is falling here and really it is not all that much of a big deal but the moment today is more of one as Theo Fleury was always an event whereever he played.  This moment happened ten years ago today and a milestone that Fleury still remembers to this day.  Here is the video and the moment as always on this Saturday.

BallHype: hype it up!

A slow day for us…forgive us here at The Program. However here is a moment today that was truly rare for a guy who was definitely gifted in dishing the puck rather than putting the puck in the net himself. A truly unselfish guy had a day to remember in the Boston Garden just 17 years ago today. Here is the video and moment for today.
