  • Flying Wasn't Fun, and for a Number of Years It Fit Right in with Everything
    F IFTY IS A BIG NUMBER Flying wasn’t fun, and for a number of years it fit right in with everything else around the team. We just weren’t enjoying the game. For all three of those years that I hit the 50 mark, it was almost like if our line didn’t score we had no chance of winning the game. Billy and Danny Daoust and Tom Fergus, the three centres I played with over those years—I had great chemistry with all of them. But a lot of nights it felt like we were on our own. And I hated losing more than I liked winning. That’s the way I was as a kid; I didn’t like losing at anything. To put those seasons in historical perspective, a number of Leafs had gotten close to 50 in years past: Frank Mahovlich had his 48 goals, and then Lanny McDonald had seasons with 46, 47 and 43; Darryl had 45 one year. And then Gary Leeman scored 51 during the 1989–90 season. Dave Andreychuk became the third Leaf to do it, in 1992–93, although there’s an asterisk of sorts next to that one because he scored 29 of the goals with Buffalo, and then 25 with the Leafs over 83 games. The next season, he scored 53, all of them with the Leafs. So, just the three of us. So far. John Tavares, the current Leafs captain, had 47 in Toronto in 2018–19, and Auston Matthews had 47 and counting in 70 games, on pace for 55, when the 2019–20 season was paused by the 97 Vaiv_9780735280298_all_5p_r1.indd 97 2020-09-09 2:00 PM CATCH 22 COVID-19 virus.

    Blues’ O’Reilly Wins Frank J. Selke Trophy St. Louis Blues center Ryan O’Reilly has won the Frank J. Selke Trophy, recognizing “the forward who best excels in the defensive aspects of the game,” as selected by the Professional Hockey Writers Association. O’Reilly garnered 1,001 voting points, including 48 first-place votes, to edge second-place right wing Mark Stone of the Vegas Golden Knights (881 voting points). Center Patrice Bergeron of the Boston Bruins, a Selke finalist for an unprecedented eighth consecutive year and owner of a record-tying four Selke wins, finished third with 809 points. O’Reilly led the NHL in face-off wins for the second consecutive season (1,086), joining Bergeron (2013-14 through 2016-17) as the only player to post 1,000+ face-off wins in four straight seasons since the statistic was introduced in 1997-98. O’Reilly’s face-off win percentage (56.9%, min. 750) ranked seventh in the NHL. He led the Blues in plus-minus (+22) and topped all St. Louis forwards in average ice time per game (20:46). The 28-year-old native of Clinton, Ont., captured the third individual NHL Trophy of his career, following his Lady Byng Memorial Trophy win in 2014 and recent Conn Smythe Trophy selection as MVP of the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs. He is the second Blues player to capture the Selke, joining Rick Meagher (1990). For a list of past Frank J. Selke Trophy winners, click here. 2018-19 Frank Selke Trophy Voting Pts.

  • 'Dear John' Video Made Waves Across Islanders Nation. Firstly, Are
    The Interview Your involvement in the ‘Dear John’ video made waves across Islanders nation. Firstly, are you aware of its impact in Canada? “Yes, I know it made Toronto media. It was brought to my attention from friends. I only wish something else of my work of doing Islanders talks and radio had made it instead of the video. (I) won’t lie when I say the video wasn’t my shining moment. As much as I don’t regret my words, the video itself was just not what I had expected. I had no involvement in the editing or creation of the video. As you said, my persona stood out the most because of the type of fan I was and they used many of my clips. To be honest, I didn’t watch the Toronto media’s take. I knew what’d they’d say and didn’t want to subject myself to any more laughter after I was getting direct messages from countless fans with messages of hate. It’s something I wish to put behind me. When they asked me to do the video they said, “Look at the camera and pretend it’s John Tavares. What would you say to him?” So I said what I’d say to him. I felt if the video had gone from a different angle like, “What do you think of Tavares and the Islanders now?” It would have been a completely different narrative.” 6 fans, including Kimmy, were recorded in front of Nassau Coliseum How do feel about the John Tavares-less New York Islanders right now? “Now I feel John Tavares’ leaving the team was probably for the best.

  • NHL Lockout: Legal Manoeuvres by League, Union Add Twist to Labour Talks Quoting Keith P
    NHL lockout: Legal manoeuvres by league, union add twist to labour talks Quoting Keith P. Burkhardt December 14, 2012 A lawsuit filed in U.S. court, a charge of unfair labour practice and a potential dissolu- tion of the National Hockey League Players’ Association may have added interesting twists to the NHL’s three-month-old lockout on Friday, but none of the three neces- sarily mean the entire season will be lost. Reports the NHLPA was moving closer to filing a disclaimer of interest — dissolving the union for the purpose of filing antitrust lawsuits against the NHL in the U.S. — led to the NHL taking pre-emptive court action. Citing the earlier reports about the NHLPA, the league said it had filed a complaint in a federal court in New York to ask the court to affirm the legality of the lockout, while also filing an unfair labour prac- tice charge with the National Labor Relations Board. With the latter, the NHL alleges “that by threatening to ‘disclaim interest,’ the NHLPA has engaged in an unlawful subversion of the collective bargaining process and conduct that constitutes bad faith bargaining.” The rattling of legal sabers puts the two sides no closer to a deal, though. “The lawsuit is entirely expected,” said Keith Burkhardt, a labour lawyer with Toronto-based Sherrard Kuzz LLP. “They presumably have had the complaint written for some time and were just waiting for a news report giving them a sufficient basis to file the suit,” said Nathaniel Grow, an assistant professor at the Terry College of Business at the University of Georgia.
