Edmonton Oilers (5) Vs. Chicago Blackhawks (12).Pdf NHL STATS & INFORMATION NOTES 2020 STANLEY CUP QUALIFIERS: EDMONTON OILERS (5) VS. CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS (12) #NHLSTATS: EDMONTON OILERS * Edmonton is 5-2 in seven all-time best-of-five Stanley Cup Playoffs series, including a 4-0 mark in its last four which were all won via sweep (detailed in the PDF). The Oilers’ win percentage of .714 in best- of-five series is tied for the second-highest among current NHL franchises. * Edmonton earned an 11-2 win over Chicago in Game 1 of the 1985 Conference Finals, which at the time was a franchise record for most goals in a postseason contest. * Overall, Edmonton outscored Chicago by a 44-25 margin in the 1985 Conference Finals, including a second contest where it notched a double-digit goal total (also Game 5: 10-5 W). The Oilers’ 44 goals remain an NHL record for most in a Stanley Cup Playoffs series by one team. * Leon Draisaitl and Connor McDavid, who ranked first and second, respectively, in NHL scoring this season, each made their playoff debut in 2017. Draisaitl led Edmonton with 6-10—16 (13 GP) – highlighted by a five-point showing in Game 6 of the Second Round – while McDavid had 5-4—9 (13 GP). * Draisaitl’s five-point outing in 2017 was the 17th time an Oilers skater recorded at least five points in a playoff game and the first instance since Jari Kurri in Game 2 of the 1990 Stanley Cup Final in Boston. * Draisaitl is one of five players to record 16 or more points in his first 13 playoff games with the Oilers. * Draisaitl (2019-20) and McDavid (2016-17 & 2017-18) have combined to win the Art Ross Trophy in three of the last four seasons. The Penguins are the only other NHL team with two Art Ross Trophy winners on its current roster (Sidney Crosby: 2006-07 & 2013-14; Evgeni Malkin: 2008-09 & 2011-12). * At age 23, McDavid already is a two-time winner of the Art Ross Trophy. Outside of McDavid, who is just five seasons into his NHL career, the 14 other players to win the award multiple times have all won the Stanley Cup at least once in their career. * In addition to Draisaitl and McDavid, seven other players who dressed at least one game with Edmonton in the 2017 Stanley Cup Playoffs remain with the team: Matt Benning, Zack Kassian, Oscar Klefbom, Adam Larsson, Ryan Nugent-Hopkins, Darnell Nurse and Kris Russell. * James Neal has 55 career playoff points (31-24—55 in 104 GP), including 4-2—6 in 10 games versus Chicago. His 104 career postseason appearances, which include 11 games during the Stanley Cup Final (2017 w/ NSH: 6 GP; 2018 w/ VGK: 5 GP), are the most among current Oilers. * Mike Smith is 11-12 in 24 career playoff appearances, including a 4-2 record with the Coyotes against the Blackhawks in the 2012 Conference Quarterfinals under the guidance of now-Oilers head coach Dave Tippett. His career postseason save percentage of .938 is the highest among NHL goaltenders who have made at least 10 playoff appearances (since 1955-56 when shots on goal were officially tracked). * Smith and Neal are the only Oilers with playoff experience against the Blackhawks. Josh Archibald (2017 PIT) and Alex Chiasson (2018 WSH) are the only Stanley Cup winners currently with Edmonton. * The Oilers are 1-5-1 in seven all-time neutral-site games. Their win came during the 2016 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at Investors Group Field in Winnipeg, Man. #NHLSTATS: CHICAGO BLACKHAWKS * Four of Chicago’s cornerstone players who won the Stanley Cup three times in six seasons (2010, 2013 & 2015) remain with the team: Patrick Kane, Duncan Keith, Brent Seabrook and Jonathan Toews. * In total, players on the Blackhawks roster (min. 1 GP in 2019-20) have a combined 20 Stanley Cup rings – only the Penguins (22) and Blues (21) have more among resuming teams. * Kane has 123 career playoff points (50-73—123 in 127 GP), fourth-most in franchise history behind Stan Mikita, Denis Savard and Bobby Hull. Toews (40-70—110 in 128 GP) ranks sixth in franchise history, while Keith (18-63—81 in 126 GP) is seventh (and tops among Chicago defensemen). * Kane also owns the third-most postseason points in NHL history among U.S.-born players behind Mike Modano (58-88—146 in 176 GP) and Chris Chelios (31-113—144 in 266 GP). Kane also ranks third among U.S.-born players with a 0.97 points-per-game rate in the playoffs (min. 50 GP), trailing Kevin Stevens (1.03 P/GP) and Brian Leetch (1.02 P/GP). * Kane and Toews’ career playoff point totals sum to 233, third-highest of any pair of current teammates. * Dominik Kubalik led all rookies with 30 goals in 2019-20 (30-16—46 in 68 GP). Including the regular- season and Stanley Cup Playoffs, the most goals scored by a Chicago rookie in a single season is 48 – achieved by Steve Larmer in 1982-83 (43 G in regular season, 5 G in playoffs). * The Blackhawks earned their only series win versus the Oilers via a four-game sweep in the 1992 Conference Finals. Jeremy Roenick and Larmer led all scorers with 4-4—8 apiece, powering the club to its first Stanley Cup Final appearance since 1973. * Chicago has played 43 neutral-site games in the regular season (9-24-10), including nine in 1928-29. The franchise was slated to play in the new Chicago Stadium that season, but due to construction delays the Black Hawks instead divided their home games between Chicago Coliseum, Peace Bridge Arena (Fort Erie, Ont.), Detroit Olympia (Detroit, Mich.) and Border Cities Arena (Windsor, Ont.). * From 1954-55 to 1955-56, the Black Hawks played 11 neutral-site games at St. Louis Arena (approximately 300 miles from Chicago Stadium) – a venue owned by team executive James D. Norris. NOTABLE CONNECTIONS Some notable connections between the Oilers and Blackhawks: * Patrick Kane (2015-16), Connor McDavid (2016-17 & 2017-18) and Leon Draisaitl (2019-20) have combined for four Art Ross Trophy wins over the past five seasons. * In 2014-15, McDavid and Alex DeBrincat combined for nearly 300 points across the regular season and playoffs as teammates with the Erie Otters of the OHL. McDavid was named CHL Player of the Year, while DeBrincat received CHL Rookie of the Year honors. BEST-OF-5 PLAYOFF SERIES * Edmonton won two of its five Stanley Cup championships after competing in a best-of-five series during the postseason: 1984 (DSF vs. WIN) and 1985 (vs. LAK). * Chicago also won two of its championships after competing in a best-of-five series. Both instances occurred during the 1930s, with the five-game series occurring during the Stanley Cup Final.

  • Ang National Hockey League
    ANG NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE Ang National Hockey League o NHL ay itinatag sa Canada noong 1917. Ilang koponan ang sumali at nawala, ngunit anim na koponan ang nanatiling aktibo mula pa sa mga unang araw ng liga. Ang Boston Bruins, Chicago Blackhawks, Detroit Red Wings, Montreal Canadiens, New York Rangers at Toronto Maple Leafs ay binansagan na “The Original Six”. Sa ngayon, ang NHL ay binubuo ng 30 na koponan: pito sa Canada at 23 sa U.S. Ang Liga ay nahahati sa dalawang pagpupulong: Eastern at Western. Ang bawat pagpupulong ay may dalawang pangkat. Mayroong 16 na koponan sa Eastern Conference na kinabibilangan ng pangkat ng Atlantic at Metropolitan. May 14 na koponan naman sa pagpupulong ng Western, na kinabibilangan ng mga koponan sa pangkat ng Pacific at Central. Sa karaniwang panahon, ang bawat koponan ay may 82 na laro, at hinahati sa paglalaro sa sariling bayan at pangdadayuhan. Ang katayuan sa liga ay batay sa sistema ng punto, na kung saan, ang dalawang punto ay ipinagkakaloob para sa nanalo at ang isa, para sa overtime o shootout na pagkatalo. Labing-anim na koponan ang naglalaban para sa kampeonato – na tinatawag na playoffs: ang tatlong nangungunang koponan sa bawat apat na pangkat, at ang dalawa na may pinakamataas na puntos sa bawat pagpupulong. Ang kampeon sa playoff ay siyang pinagkakalooban ng Stanley Cup – ang pinakaantigong tropeo sa palakasang-pangpropesyonal sa North America. PAGLALARO Ang mga panimula sa Hockey ay simple – mag-skate ka, lumusot ka, humataw ka at gumawa ka ng puntos. Ang mga manlalaro ay lumiligid sa loob ng arena ng yelo sa pamamagitan ng skates – boots na may dobleng talim sa gilid ng talampakan nito – na nagpapa- hintulot ng matalim at mabilis na pag-ikot.

The Origin of the Red Wings dates back to 1926, when Detroit won the NHL franchise. Because the team owners bought the Victoria Cougars list of the Western Hockey League, they named their young team the Detroit Cougars. Success was elusive in those early years, so the city newspapers held a competition to change the name. The winner was the Falcons, but the new name did not change the team's fate. In 1932, the team was bought by millionaire James Norris. As a young man, he played for the MAAA Winged Wheelers, which won the first Cup in 1893. MAAA was a sports club that sponsored many sports, including cycling, which was the origin of the winged wheel logo worn by all MAAA athletes.

    PREGAME NOTES 2019 TIM HORTONS NHL HERITAGE CLASSIC WINNIPEG JETS vs. CALGARY FLAMES MOSAIC STADIUM, REGINA, SASK. – OCT. 26, 2019 JETS, FLAMES FACE OFF OUTDOORS The Winnipeg Jets and Calgary Flames face off tonight in the 2019 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic (10 p.m. ET / 8 p.m. CST, CBC, SN1, CITY, TVAS2, NBCSN) – the League’s 28th regular-season outdoor game and fifth in the Heritage Classic series. The Jets and Flames each have participated in one prior outdoor game, both under the Heritage Classic umbrella. Winnipeg played host to the 2016 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at Investors Group Field, falling 3-0 to the Edmonton Oilers. Nine Jets players who appeared in that game remain with the team: Kyle Connor, Nikolaj Ehlers, Connor Hellebuyck, Patrik Laine, Adam Lowry, Josh Morrissey, Mathieu Perreault, Mark Scheifele and Blake Wheeler. Current Calgary goaltender Cam Talbot started for Edmonton in that contest, stopping all 31 shots he faced for the third shutout in outdoor NHL game history. Current Jets forward Mark Letestu scored the winning goal (while shorthanded), as a member of the Oilers. And current Flames forward Milan Lucic recorded two penalty minutes for Edmonton. Calgary served as hosts for the 2011 Tim Hortons NHL Heritage Classic at McMahon Stadium, defeating the Montreal Canadiens 4-0. Two players who appeared in that game remain with the Flames: Mikael Backlund and Mark Giordano. Overall, the Jets feature 11 players who have participated in a prior outdoor NHL game (minimum: 1 GP in 2019-20), while the Flames have four. Talbot leads that group with four such appearances, though he served as a backup goaltender for three of them (2014 SS w/ NYR [2 GP], 2019 SS w/ PHI).

  • The Psychological and Physiological Effects of the Stanley Cup Playoffs a Review of the Literature Joe Robinson
    The Psychological and Physiological Effects of the Stanley Cup Playoffs A Review of the Literature Joe Robinson Abstract This review examines the influence of the Stanley Cup playoffs on both the players and fans of the National Hockey League. Canada’s most beloved pastime is beginning to gain widespread popularity in the United States. As a result, there has been extensive research into the sport’s psychological and physiological effects in the past few years. A recent sociological study determined that suicide rates in the Canadian province of Quebec can be influenced by the playoffs and its relationship to other factors, such as sex, age, and marital status. Other studies have analyzed the reasons for the 2011 Stanley Cup riots in Vancouver. Expert opinions on this subject vary significantly. Psychology professor Ervin Staub believes the riots were the result of a decrease in testosterone levels of dejected male fans, who used “destructive means to regain their sense of effectiveness” (Alexander). Whereas author Bill Buford explained that the fans simply found it exciting to riot. Journalists have taken a different approach to examining the effects of the NHL playoffs, opting to report on player superstitions, such as playoff beards and jinxes associated with the Stanley Cup. Even fans have contributed to the research effort by providing a unique perspective on the psychological phenomenon known as the bandwagon effect. Medical professionals have researched the physical effects of the playoffs. A 2006 study by speech pathologist William Hodgetts concluded that fans who attend a single, three hour playoff game can potentially suffer serious hearing damage.
