  • Turnbull Hockey Pool For
    Turnbull Hockey Pool for Each year, Turnbull students participate in several fundraising initiatives, which we promote as a way to develop a sense of community, leadership and social responsibility within the students. Last year's grade 7 and 8 students put forth a great deal of effort campaigning friends and family members to join Turnbull's annual NHL hockey pool, raising a total of $1750 for a charity of their choice (the United Way). This year's group has decided to run the hockey pool for the benefit of Help Lesotho, an international development organization working in the AIDS-ravaged country of Lesotho in southern Africa. From www.helplesotho.org "Help Lesotho’s programs foster hope and motivation in those who are most in need: orphans, vulnerable children, at-risk youth and grandmothers. Our work targets root causes and community priorities, including literacy, youth leadership training, school twinning, child sponsorship and gender programming. Help Lesotho is an effective, sustainable organization that is working at the grass-roots level to support the next generation of leaders in Lesotho." Your participation in this year's NHL hockey pool is very much appreciated. We believe it will provide students and their friends and families an opportunity to have fun together while giving back to their community by raising awareness and funds for a great cause. Prizes: > Grand Prize awarded to contestant whose team accumulates the most points over the regular NHL season = 10" Samsung Galaxy Tablet > Monthly Prizes awarded to the contestants whose teams accumulate the most points over each designated period (see website) = Two Movie Passes How it Works: > Everyone in the community is welcome to join in on the fun.

  • Why Is Fighting Vanishing from the NHL? by Chris Kuc, Chicago Tribune on 02.18.16 Word Count 1,166
    Why is fighting vanishing from the NHL? By Chris Kuc, Chicago Tribune on 02.18.16 Word Count 1,166 The Philadelphia Flyers' Pierre-Edouard Bellemare (left) is charged with goalie interference on the Toronto Maple Leafs' James Reimer (right) during the second period of a game at the Wells Fargo Center in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, Jan. 19, 2016. Photo: Steven M. Falk/Philadelphia Inquirer/TNS Before he became the darling of hockey with his heartwarming tale surrounding last weekend’s NHL All-Star Game, John Scott was a polarizing figure in the league. As the last of the game’s true enforcers, teammates revered Scott for protecting them on the ice, while many fans who believe fighting should be eradicated from the game reviled him. But here’s the thing about fighting and Scott: In recent seasons he had difficulty finding anyone willing to drop the gloves with him. During his stint with the Chicago Blackhawks from 2010-12, Scott often would bemoan the fact opponents would turn down his pugilistic requests. “It has gotten even harder these days,” Scott, now with the Canadiens’ AHL affiliate, said last week. “It’s hard to find fights.” That follows a trend in the NHL, where fighting is down 16 percent from a year ago at this time, 35 percent from two seasons ago and 40 percent from the 2012-13 season. According to the NHL, through Feb. 4 there were a total of 212 fights in a combined 767 games for an average of 0.28 per contest. Through 767 games of the ’14-15 season, there were 259 fights (0.34 per game).
