  • An Educational Experience
    INTRODUCTION An Educational Experience In many countries, hockey is just a game, but to Canadians it’s a thread woven into the very fabric of our society. The Hockey Hall of Fame is a museum where participants and builders of the sport are honoured and the history of hockey is preserved. Through the Education Program, students can share in the glory of great moments on the ice that are now part of our Canadian culture. The Hockey Hall of Fame has used components of the sport to support educational core curriculum. The goal of this program is to provide an arena in which students can utilize critical thinking skills and experience hands-on interactive opportunities that will assure a successful and worthwhile field trip to the Hockey Hall of Fame. The contents of this the Education Program are recommended for Grades 6-9.

Toronto Ribfest Update What’s new in Food? Variety Pack with front of the line access. The plan is to create a special opportunity for our patrons to purchase a “variety pack” of ribs and also have “premium lines” for them so they bypass the long lines. The variety pack would consist of a 1/3 rack of ribs from 3 different ribbers (the customer’s choice). They would go to the premium line at one, then to the other and to the third. The cost hasn’t been finalized yet but the idea might be to charge $30 with $22 to the ribbers and $8 back to the Club. This is a potential money maker. Gourmet Food Trucks – Hugh asked jack Fleming to talk about the food truck venture. Jack said that in addition to our 16 ribbers there will be 2 Toronto Ribfest Co-chairs Hugh Williams began gourmet food trucks this year.

  • Nhl Morning Skate: Stanley Cup Playoffs Edition – May 19, 2021
    NHL MORNING SKATE: STANLEY CUP PLAYOFFS EDITION – MAY 19, 2021 THREE HARD LAPS * With more than 9,000 fans at PPG Paints Arena in Pittsburgh, and nearly that number at T- Mobile Arena in Las Vegas, the Penguins and Golden Knights each claimed home wins to even their respective series at one game apiece. * Nikita Kucherov moved within one of 100 career playoff points as the Lightning pulled ahead 2-0 in their series with the Panthers as the clubs get set to head cross-state for Game 3 on Thursday. * The final game of the 2020-21 regular season is slated for this afternoon, with four playoff games to follow including Connor McDavid and the Oilers hosting Mark Scheifele and the Jets in the first postseason game in the Scotia North Division. FLEURY STANDS TALL YET AGAIN AS GOLDEN KNIGHTS EVEN SERIES Marc-Andre Fleury made 34 saves and Alex Tuch scored twice as the Golden Knights rallied to earn a split through two games in their best-of-seven series against the Wild. Vegas has yet to face a 2-0 series deficit in its nine all-time playoff series. * Fleury allowed one goal or fewer in a playoff start for the 36th time in his career (146 starts), surpassing Ken Dryden (35x in 112 starts) for sole possession of the 11th most such performances in Stanley Cup Playoffs history. Among active goaltenders, only Henrik Lundqvist (45x in 130 starts) has more playoff starts in which he has allowed one goal or fewer. * Tuch’s goals came after Jonathan Marchessault became the first to solve Wild goaltender Cam Talbot this postseason.
