Institutional Maintenance and Disruption, and the Resultant Identity Regulation in the North American Field of Men’s Professional Ice Hockey: An Examination of Organizational Control and Preparedness for Athletic Career Retirement by Andre Michael Andrijiw A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Faculty of Kinesiology, Sport, and Recreation University of Alberta © Andre Michael Andrijiw, 2019 ii Abstract Following a significant commitment of time, energy, and role identification, athletes retiring from sport may experience any number of difficulties, including emotional distress, diminished subjective well-being, and identity disruption. These difficulties may be particularly acute for those who hold a salient athletic identity. Notwithstanding an expansive body of literature on the subject of sport career cessation, few works have examined how athletic identities have been constructed, maintained, and/or transformed by managers and organizations. Providing a compelling case for just such an examination was the North American field of men’s professional ice hockey. The field, composed of the National Hockey League, two lower-level affiliates, and a number of related organizations, has long supported the development of athletic identities. This support, despite its service to the achievement of athletic outcomes, has marginalized personal development, complicated the process of sport career cessation, and triggered the introduction of several interventions. In turn, the several questions arose: how have managers and organizations in the field regulated athletic and non-athletic identities; and how might such regulation affect preparation for the process of sport career cessation. To answer these questions, an interpretive study, informed by Alvesson and Willmott’s (2002) concept of identity regulation was undertaken. As part of the study, interviews were conducted with players/alumni (n = 3); and managers from the National Hockey League (n = 1), National Hockey League Players’ Association (n = 1), Professional Hockey Players’ Association (n = 1); Core Development and Career Enhancement Programs (n = 3); and seven National/American Hockey League teams (n = 7; N = 16). In addition, 3902 documents (primarily in the form of online articles, from the aforementioned organizations) were reviewed. iii Analysis of the data revealed that regulation entailed the construction and maintenance of a salient and bipartite athletic identity; a largely self-directed, non-sporting alternative; and a nascent merger between the two. Consistent with Alvesson and Willmott’s (2002) conceptualization, each of the identities was defined by multiple motives, sets of values and characteristics, and bodies of knowledge and skill. Building upon the conceptualization, the analysis revealed that organizations fostered identity adherence and performance, to varying degrees, through scouting, monitoring, evaluation, and enforcement; explicit conveyances; auxiliary resource allocation; exemplars; awards/rewards; routinization; and publicity. Attempts of identity disruption/change, moreover, were subject to insulative measures. The study ultimately found that the product of regulation, and the organizational practices that undergirded as much, was an eminent athletic identity, one that could continue to complicate the process of sport career cessation. To limit the deleterious nature and occurrence of transition- related difficulties, it was suggested that manager continue to challenge extant regulation practices, and/or employ as much in novel manners. In these ways, broader identities, conducive to the process of athletic career retirement, and the long-term well-being of individuals, may be developed. iv Preface This thesis is an original work by Andre Michael Andrijiw.

Den här gången var det pandemin till följd av spridningen av covid-19 som medförde att all ishockey på nationell nivå helt ställdes in den 15 mars.

The Eagles are making their AHL debut as they were welcomed as the league’s 31st team earlier this year. LAST MEETING April 22, 2018 Just as the Wolves are known for being four-time league champions, the Eagles enter this year riding the momentum of back-to-back championships in the ECHL. They have become partners with the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche this season, so their roster does not bear much resemblance to the group that claimed the 2018 Kelly Cup. Only six Eagles return, but a good chunk of Colorado’s Opening Night 0-0-0-0 0-0-0-0 roster played for San Antonio last year as the Rampage served as the Colorado Avalanche’s NHL partner.

    2018-19 Chicago Wolves Game Notes CHICAGO AT GRAND RAPIDS OCTOBER 20, 2018 6 p.m. AHLTV ONE OF THE LAST TEAMS STANDING 2018-19 For the third time in the organization’s 25-year history, the Chicago Wolves are off to a 4-0 start as TALE OF THE TAPE head coach Rocky Thompson’s team pulled off a pair of home wins last weekend against the same team the Wolves are playing this weekend. The Wolves and the Charlotte Checkers (5-0-0-0) are the REGULAR-SEASON SERIES 0-1-0-0 Grand Rapids | 1-0-0-0 Chicago only unbeaten teams left in the AHL. LAST MEETING Winning the first handful of games in October typically leads to a magical June for the Wolves. In April 22, 2018 1997-98, head coach John Anderson’s first Wolves squad started 3-0 and went on to capture the 1998 Turner Cup. In 2001-02, the Wolves won their first three games and finished the year holding the Calder Cup aloft. In 2007-08, the Wolves raced out to a 6-0 start and didn’t stop until they owned the 2008 Calder Cup. 1-4-0-0 4-0-0-0 There’s only one Wolves team that started 3-0 that didn’t win the league championship: The 2012-13 LEADING SCORERS crew that opened 4-0, but early and frequent injuries left the squad just shy of the playoffs.

  • Nhl Morning Skate – Jan. 31, 2020 Three
    NHL MORNING SKATE – JAN. 31, 2020 THREE HARDS * Filip Forsberg, Roman Josi and the Predators outlasted the Devils in a back-and-forth, 11- goal affair that featured five game-tying goals – the NHL’s fifth such contest in 2019-20. * Alex Iafallo completed his first hat trick and became the third player in NHL history to score within the opening 25 seconds of an overtime period multiple times in a single season. * After Jack Eichel’s 30th goal gave the Sabres an early lead, 36-year-old Ilya Kovalchuk and 20-year-old Nick Suzuki propelled the Canadiens to their 10th comeback win of the season. JOSI, FORSBERG PROPEL PREDATORS IN BACK-AND-FORTH AFFAIR Filip Forsberg (2-0—2) scored one of the contest’s five game-tying goals and Roman Josi (0- 2—2) eclipsed the 50-point mark as the Predators (24-19-7, 55 points) outlasted the Devils in a back-and-forth, 11-goal affair. * Forsberg, who leads the Predators with 18 goals this season, scored his 162nd and 163rd career tallies (all w/ NSH) to move within two of a franchise-best sixth 20-goal campaign. In the process, he tied Martin Erat (163-318—481 in 723 GP) for the third-most in Predators history, behind David Legwand (210-356—566 in 956 GP) and Shea Weber (166-277—443 in 763 GP). * Conversely, Josi leads the team with 14-37—51 through 50 games in 2019-20 and joined Washington’s John Carlson (13-47—60) as the second defenseman to reach the 50-point mark this season.
