Great book for any Wings fan.By sheldaniaExcellent book by the "real" creator of the Real Wings dynasty (not Ken Holland). Great inside stories of Mr. I and company; particularly on Mr. I's (RIP) early involvement in coaching changes and hiring practices. Easy read, pulls no punches, well-written. I highly recommend it to any Wings fan.I just read it in017, unfortunately book was written in 2008; so cuts out after the Wings last cup. Hope he writes an addendum one day.

  • Nhl Morning Skate – Feb
    NHL MORNING SKATE – FEB. 22, 2020 THREE HARD LAPS * The recent trend of teams putting together noteworthy performances immediately following a jersey retirement ceremony continued Friday, with Jordan Eberle scoring a hat trick after the Islanders honored John Tonelli. * Jared Spurgeon also tallied three times and joined a rare list of NHL defensemen to score a natural hat trick. * After falling behind 3-1 in the opening 3:23, the League-leading Bruins rallied to pull off a comeback win seen just six other times in NHL history. EBERLE SCORES HAT TRICK AFTER ISLANDERS RETIRE TONELLI’S No. 27 Jordan Eberle scored the third hat trick of his NHL career to help the Islanders defeat the Red Wings after they retired former forward and perennial fan favorite John Tonelli’s No. 27 in a pre-game ceremony at NYCB Live/Nassau Coliseum. * Tonelli, who skated each of his first eight NHL seasons with New York from 1978-79 to 1985- 86 (206-338—544 in 594 GP), was part of the franchise’s four Stanley Cup-winning teams which were won in consecutive fashion from 1980 to 1983. He assisted on Bobby Nystrom’s famous series-clinching overtime winner in Game 6 of the 1980 Final to help the Islanders capture their first Stanley Cup in franchise history. * Tonelli became the seventh player in franchise history to have his number retired, joining Denis Potvin (No. 5), Clark Gillies (No. 9), Bryan Trottier (No. 19), Mike Bossy (No. 22), Nystrom (No. 23) and Billy Smith (No. 31). Butch Goring (No. 91) will also receive the honor later this month on Feb.

    1 The Early Years I remember being 4 years old and playing organized hockey for the first time. It would be the equivalent of what they call Timbits Hockey today, but this was well before Tim Hortons had taken a stranglehold on naming everything in this country. Four-year-olds are small, so we were able to play three hockey games simultaneously on a single sheet of ice. At first, I enjoyed the thrill of playing as a forward and scoring goalsCOPYRIGHTED against the opposition. WhenMATERIAL I was 5 years old, we started to rotate goalies. At that stage in life, no child wants to be a goalie. Who in his right mind would want to be woken up at 5 a.m., be strapped into heavy equipment and then CC01.indd01.indd 1 113/06/123/06/12 99:10:10 AAMM 2 Th e Best Seat in the House stand in a stationary position while all his friends are skating around and having fun? Most young teams simply rotate the job of goalie after every game so that everyone can share in the misery. But for some reason, I immediately fell in love with the position. When you’re playing goal at the age of 5 or 6, it’s a pretty charmed life. The opposition players have no set plays, since most of them are still struggling with basic coordina- tion on the ice. And when they have the puck in the slot, you know they can’t beat you high glove side. Nobody could raise the puck off the ice at that point, which means I could’ve perfected the paddle-down style of goaltending before my seventh birthday.
