  • Weekly Notes 072817
    MAJOR LEAGUE BASEBALL WEEKLY NOTES FRIDAY, JULY 28, 2017 BLACKMON WORKING TOWARD HISTORIC SEASON On Sunday afternoon against the Pittsburgh Pirates at Coors Field, Colorado Rockies All-Star outfi elder Charlie Blackmon went 3-for-5 with a pair of runs scored and his 24th home run of the season. With the round-tripper, Blackmon recorded his 57th extra-base hit on the season, which include 20 doubles, 13 triples and his aforementioned 24 home runs. Pacing the Majors in triples, Blackmon trails only his teammate, All-Star Nolan Arenado for the most extra-base hits (60) in the Majors. Blackmon is looking to become the fi rst Major League player to log at least 20 doubles, 20 triples and 20 home runs in a single season since Curtis Granderson (38-23-23) and Jimmy Rollins (38-20-30) both accomplished the feat during the 2007 season. Since 1901, there have only been seven 20-20-20 players, including Granderson, Rollins, Hall of Famers George Brett (1979) and Willie Mays (1957), Jeff Heath (1941), Hall of Famer Jim Bottomley (1928) and Frank Schulte, who did so during his MVP-winning 1911 season. Charlie would become the fi rst Rockies player in franchise history to post such a season. If the season were to end today, Blackmon’s extra-base hit line (20-13-24) has only been replicated by 34 diff erent players in MLB history with Rollins’ 2007 season being the most recent. It is the fi rst stat line of its kind in Rockies franchise history. Hall of Famer Lou Gehrig is the only player in history to post such a line in four seasons (1927-28, 30-31).

  • 1989 NFHL Season Preview
    1989 NFHL Season Preview With the 1970s a distant memory and the 1980s soon to follow, the NFHL is getting ready to kick of its 19th season. Back in 1970, it was announced that a new professional hockey league would be opening its doors, and in 1971 the first league champion was crowned, with the St. Louis Blues bringing home the inaugural SMJ Cup. Back then, there were only 16 franchises, and the regular season was a mere 60 games long. Now, nearly two decades later, and with a vastly different landscape, the NFHL is finish off the 80s and move into their 3rd decade of play. The league has now expanded four different times, up to 24 teams, and the regular season has lengthened by 25%, while the playoffs now require 16 victories, rather than 12. But before we get too far ahead of ourselves thinking about the 1990s, it’s time to break down the upcoming 1989 season, where the Montreal Canadiens seek to become the first ever three-peat champion in NFHL history. 1 New York Islanders 2 Philadelphia Flyers 3 New York Rangers 4 New Jersey Devils 5 Pittsburgh Penguins 6 Washington Capitals The cream of the crop. The Gold Standard. The most dominant team in NFHL history. For nearly two full decades, the New York Islanders, previously the California Golden Seals, have been atop the standings, while bringing home four SMJ Cups. In many ways, 1988 was a pivotal season for the Islanders. It’s no secret that the team has been getting older, and the core has stayed the same for years.

  • THE KNOWLEDGE PROJECT #49 Brent Gilchrist
    THE KNOWLEDGE PROJECT #49 Brent Gilchrist fs.blog My guest today is former professional hockey player Brent Gilchrist. Brent spent 15 years in the NHL, playing 792 games with the Montreal Canadiens, Edmonton Oilers, Dallas Stars, Detroit Red Wings, and Nashville Predators. He won a Stanley Cup with the Red Wings in 1998. In his post-playing career, he has become a mining executive with JDS Energy & Mining. In this conversation, we explore what it’s like to play in the NHL, and the habits that allowed him to have such a long playing career. We talk about the difference between good coaches and bad coaches. We also talk about how he transitioned from hockey to investing, and then venture capital and mining. Let’s get started. #ListenAndLearn Shane Parrish: Take me to the Stanley Cup final. You’re a professional hockey player at this point. This is before we get into mining and post- playing career. What is that like? Brent Gilchrist: I was fortunate enough to play in two Stanley Cup finals, and...fortunate and probably misled a little bit. My first year in the NHL I played with the Montreal Canadiens, and we had a great team. We finished second that year in the standings, and in 1989, we ended up playing the Calgary Flames in the Stanley Cup final. And we lost in six games, obviously really devastating, but as a 21-year-old kid, to play in a Stanley Cup final your first year.... And one story I remember—after we eliminated Philadelphia in the Spectrum in the conference final, I remember sitting next to Bob Gainey on the bus ride from the Spectrum to the airport.
