Today we have a moment that in a word can be simply described as “status quo”.  If you do not know what I am talking about then you probably haven’t been following us much lately.  However, on this day 24 years ago, the New Jersey Devils were forever changed by one man becoming the General […]

We get a bit of a late start in the fantasy hockey “actual” drafts (not mocks as we have done plenty of those) tonight at 7pm ET with the epic SSHL draft.  It is always good to have some drafts early, some around training camp and some very close to the start of the regular […]

So trades do get amended all the time apparently.  Something we forget this until there is that classic look back into yesteryear.  However the Chicago Blackhawks and Oakland Seals completed a trade that needed to eventually be reworked a bit.  It is time to look back at a moment that happened 40 years ago today.  […]

Here are the videos and now they shall come….         Have a great night everyone….

We keep getting closer and closer to what?  Hockey season of course!  Fantasy drafts are starting this week and yes I have two of them tomorrow.  The blotter this year is also going to focus in on some of the craziest and boldest moves made during drafts.  These may be some of the mistakes you […]

The moments get a little lighter right before training camp.  They always do.  Today we found a bit of an odd one but good one hopefully.  This happened 24 years ago on this day in 1987.     September 08, 1987 New York Rangers traded Pat Price to the Minnesota North Stars in exchange for […]

Here are the videos before either we get flooded or the power goes out.  Okay maybe not in that order…..         Good night everyone….

Despite today’s latest tragedy, we learn that it is okay to mourn but even more important to cherish what is close and appreciate the happy times.  There will be no pictures, videos, or dressed up links in this post but simply a message to every single hockey fan from us here at The Program.     […]

Today is what we would like to call a little moment.  However it is one that will warm your heart at least a little bit or it should.  Now this player was more known for what he did in the red and black but not of his first team.  However, every team takes a chance […]

Here are the videos and bring on the ice!!!!         Have a great night everyone….

  There comes a time when change is inevitable. This is one of those times.  Our goal at The Program is to provide you with a different type of fantasy hockey coverage.  Whether we have our short summer shows or longer pre-season and in season shows, the same creed applies.  It is with much joy […]

Finally we found one in the inbox that was not fluff.  Here is a trade that probably few ever saw coming because ot the timing.  This moment occurred 23 years ago today and paved the way for a certain bulldog’s career.  First we will have the video and then we bring the moment like we […]

This is the end of Labor Day.  Tomorrow we all go back to work so in the meantime, we have some videos for the masses.  Enjoy.         Have a good night everyone….

  Here is a nice quick hitter from Patrick Hoffman on the pangs of the offseason…… This is what every hockey/NHL fan has been thinking ever since the offseason kicked off back in late June, early July. It is time to turn that frown upside down because folks, hockey season is just a couple of […]
