This One Is For You Dad!

Good morning ladies and gentlemen.  The normal “This Day In Hockey History” has been replaced by a post that is just simply from the heart.  Here it goes… One would think that six years would heal a lot of old wounds.  Yes it actually does but it never really makes that little pain in the […]

Videos Before Bedtime (7/30)

Tomorrow is a rather somber day but in the meantime we have a couple more hockey videos to wet your appetite.  Yes the dog days roll on but it gets us another day closer to the coolest game on Earth.  Enjoy.         Have a good night ladies and gentlemen.

This Day In Hockey History (7/30)

Today’s moment comes straight from the “Edmonton Pipeline”.  This guy had a long and fruitful career in the NHL and was able to win a few Stanley Cups along the way.  Thirteen years ago today, we said goodbye and really it is like he never left as seen from his later endeavors in the Edmonton […]

Fantasy Hockey Zen (7/29)

Let us pray that the internet works this weekend.  Hey you never know.  Seriously we all need a little zen sometimes and here is today’s moment.     Next thing you know, fantasy hockey GM’s will start working out like the players they manage. Oh wait, some do. Have a great TGIF!

This Day In Hockey History (7/29)

Today we have a nice little moment to close out the week.  Los Angeles was coming off a rather lackluster season and needed to make a move.  Out went one of their beloved players and this is how the trade went down 17 years ago today.     July 29, 1994 L.A. Kings traded Luc […]

Fantasy Impacto: Jannik Hansen

     So that was an interesting little signing in a summer with no real arbitration hearings of note. Will Shea Weber or Zach Parise go that route?  Even that appears unlikely at this stage (it would seem).  Arbitration cases only seem to occur about 12-18% of the time in the NHL anyway and this […]

Videos Before Bedtime (7/28)

Here we go.  There will be a couple videos and then secretly while some of you go to bed, we will sneak another fantasy impacto.  Now enjoy the multimedia.         Have a great night and yet we are not done yet…..

Fantasy Impacto: Rolston To Hunter To Parise?

    What you see above is Brian Rolston’s calling card.  It is that beauty of a slapshot that when it finds the net, is pure gold.  However, most of the time Rolston is way wide and at his age now just is not the same player he was even a few seasons ago.  Some […]

This Day In Hockey History (7/28)

Well this one has to move fast ladies and gentlemen.  Picture it like a fleeting moment that just goes even faster than expected.  Today we pay a tribute to a man who retired 13 years ago today.  He was a pioneer and no that is not stuff of legend. This is a person who went […]

Videos Before Bedtime (7/27)

The last hour of the day is upon us so therefore there will be videos.  Here they are and do not forget the tip jar at the tail end of the bar on your way out.  Thanks.         A little instructional video….have a great night!

Fantasy Hockey Zen (7/27)

There were moments we could have used for today but this one just seems to fit the best.  Here you go fantasy hockey fans…..     Some goalies could learn from this video.

Fantasy Impacto: Ryan Callahan

     It is said that Ryan Callahan is ready for the next step.  The Rangers have generously signed him to a 3 year, $12.875 million dollar deal, hence avoiding arbitration.  Is he worth it?  Will he fulfill his potential based on his “breakout” season that was cut short due to a shot block?  There […]

This Day In Hockey History (7/27)

Today we bow our heads and honor a man who, without his invention, hockey would be a lot harder to play in rinks.  He may have left us 23 years ago but he left an undeniable mark on the sport and had many of us dream as kids, “I wanna drive the Zamboni!”.     […]
