Paul Terbenche You Don't Have to Be Big! Paul Terbenche Was One of an Impressive Number of Professional Hockey Players to Come from Port Hope

National Hockey League Paul Terbenche You Don't Have to be Big! Paul Terbenche was one of an impressive number of professional hockey players to come from Port Hope. Like most of the others, he played his early hockey in the area, but unlike most of them he played for two major professional hockey leagues, the World Hockey Association (WHA) and the National Hockey League (NHL). In 1963-64 Terbenche played defence for the Junior “B” Ingersoll Marlands, and the next two years for the Junior “A” St. Catharines Black Hawks. In 1966 he moved up to the St. Louis Braves of the Central Pro League. His introduction to the big stage came in the 1967-68 season when he played 68 games with the Chicago Black Hawks, only to be back in the minors for the next two seasons. His small stature, standing just 5’10” and weighing 170 pounds, will have been a factor. In 1970 the Bualo Sabres claimed Terbenche in the expansion draft, but he served mostly in the minors until 1972. From 1972 to 1974 he played 109 games with the Sabres before he made the move to the Vancouver Blazers in the rival World Hockey Association. The WHA was formed to challenge the monopoly of the NHL and began play in 1972 with twelve teams. At that time sixty-seven players jumped from the NHL to the WHA, led by star forward Bobby Hull. Terbenche played for ﬁve dierent WHA Terbenche's statistics in the two professional leagues teams, including the Vancouver Blazers, combined include: 504 games, 123 points and 112 Calgary Cowboys, Birmingham Bulls, Houston penalty minutes.

Ed Meagher Arena Unveiling
ED MEAGHER ARENA UNVEILING NOVEMBER 2013 NEWS RELEASE RENOVATED ED MEAGHER ARENA UNVEILED CONCORDIA STINGERS HIT THE ICE NHL STYLE Montreal, November 20, 2013 — Not only are the Concordia Stingers back on home ice after the reopening of the Ed Meagher Arena, they’re now competing on a brand new rink surface that conforms to National Hockey League specifications. The modernized arena features the latest and most cutting-edge technology on the market today — an eco-friendly carbon dioxide (CO2) ice refrigeration system. The technology, developed in Quebec, means the arena can operate 11 months a year, compared to seven using the former ammonia system. In addition to a new ice surface and boards, fans will appreciate the new heating system; the burning of natural gas has been replaced by recycled heat generated by the new refrigeration system. The renovations – made possible by a joint investment of $7.75 million from the Government of Quebec and Concordia — involved an expansion of 2,500 sq. ft. The new space boasts larger changing rooms, an equipment storage room, and two new changing rooms for soccer and rugby players. Other renovations include window replacements and a new ventilation and dehumidification system. ABOUT THE ED MEAGHER ARENA AND ITS ATHLETES The Ed Meagher Arena plays host to approximately 40 Stingers men’s and women’s hockey games a year. The Concordia hockey players proudly represent the university at an elite level competing against some of the best teams in North America. Over the years, many talented athletes — including Olympians and NHLers — have developed their skills as members of the Stingers or its founding institutions’ teams.

“World Hockey Association Comin' on Strong” Rememb
™ FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Contact: Laurence Kaiser [email protected] Norb Ecksl [email protected] WORLD HOCKEY ASSOCIATION 50TH ANNIVERSARY REUNION LAS VEGAS – (January 22, 2021) To commemorate a very special day in sports history, many of the remaining members of the World Hockey Association, fans and celebrities will gather to celebrate the existence of the WHA that was born 50 years before. This reunion will take place in Las Vegas, Nevada from October 7, 2022 through October 11, 2022 where great and treasured moments will be fondly remembered. “WORLD HOCKEY ASSOCIATION COMIN’ ON STRONG” “The WHA means a lot to me and it was a very important part of my life. I look forward to being there and seeing everyone,” stated hockey legend Bobby Hull. “We are getting together for this great cause so that the WHA is remembered for the things it did for the game of hockey. I will enjoy reminiscing and hope that many of you will join me to celebrate.” Hull, the Golden Jet, is committed to the cause and will be in Las Vegas for the entire celebration. We are also honoring the godfather of the WHA and the original “disruptor” of professional sports, Dennis A. Murphy, along with other luminaries. REMEMBERING “A DAY THAT CHANGED THE GAME” The WHA had a great impact in changing the game of hockey in North America and abroad when the impossible happened. The fledgling league challenged the long- established National Hockey League (NHL), and for seven seasons presented an entertaining version of our great game. It all started as the puck dropped on October 11, 1 1972, when the Alberta Oilers defeated the Ottawa Nationals, 7-4, and the Cleveland Crusaders shutout the Quebec Nordiques, 2-0.

Season IV: 1975-1976
Season IV: Jets Capture First Crown Tardif & Cloutier Scoring Stars 1975-1976 Fighting Mars League Image The World Hockey Association opened its fourth season with high hopes after Award Winners three previous seasons of steadily increasing attendance figures. Two teams would not be back for the 1975-76 campaign: the Chicago Cougars folded immediately after the previous season’s end, and the Baltimore Blades ceased operations not long after. In their places were two expansion franchises: the Cincinnati Stingers and the Denver Spurs. There was just one franchise shift: the Vancouver Blazers moved across the Rockies to Calgary, becoming the Cowboys. The fourteen teams were divided into three divisions. Calgary, Edmonton, Québec, Toronto and Winnipeg made up the Canadian Division; Cincinnati, Cleveland, Indianapolis and New England comprised the Eastern Division, Most Valuable Player Rookie of the Year Gordie Howe Trophy Lou Kaplan Trophy while the Western Division included Denver, Houston, Minnesota, Phoenix and Marc Tardif Mark Napier San Diego. Québec Toronto Denver’s Spurs could not make it to the new year; they vacated Denver at the end of December, played two home games in Ottawa in early January 1976, and disbanded altogether two weeks later. Six weeks after Ottawa’s departure, the Minnesota Fighting Saints folded, paring the league to twelve teams. The patchwork schedule used for the remainder of the season saw some teams play 81 games so that other teams could reach 80. Disparities abounded: Québec and Toronto tangled 16 times, while Winnipeg and San Diego squared off on only three occasions. Best Goaltender Best Defenseman Winnipeg and Québec fought hard for the top spot in the Canadian Division, Ben Hatskin Trophy Dennis Murphy Trophy Winnipeg squeaking ahead with 106 points, two ahead of Québec.

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).

He taught at York University in Toronto for one year prior to coming to Lethbridge, where he is an Assistant Professor in the Department of Sociology.

Fielding, Canadian Minister of Finance, turn of the century In a very real sense, eastern Canadians continue to have a colonial attitude towards the west. They assume, for example, that the most successful people in a wide variety of occupations will sooner or later gravitate to Ontario or Montreal. Thus the journalist, the broadcaster, the executive, the doctor, the lawyer, and the professor who lusts after success feels the nagging pressure to sooner or later abandon the boonies of the west and show one's peers that she or he can cut it in the heavy traffic of the eastern big-time.
