    RICK MIDDLETON JERSEY RETIREMENT QUOTES BOSTON BRUINS VS NEW YORK ISLANDERS Thursday, November 29, 2018 BOSTON BRUINS ALUMNUS RICK MIDDLETON On what this night means to him… It really is hard to put into words. I’ve had four months to think about it, and I hate repeating myself, but honestly, I believe it is the biggest honor that certainly a retired athlete can get in his career, and the fact that, in the last six or seven years, I’ve been seeing that it’s not out there; nobody’s wearing it. All of a sudden, it happened. In July, a phone call in July; I never thought it would ever happen that way, but I just have to thank Cam [Neely] so much for doing it. He started it six or seven years ago. It culminated tonight. On if he ever looked up at the rafters and wondered if his number would be there some day… Oh sure. You know, I didn’t know a lot about them, so when I got the call for this, I looked up Dit Clapper. I didn’t really know a lot about – he was the first guy to play 20 years in the NHL. He had a great career, and he played two positions and made the all-star team at forward and defense. Sometimes the guys who are way back, you don’t look at, but I’m so proud to be just a part of the 10 guys that are up there. On how emotional it will be… Well, I’m not emotional because I have to get through my speech, but I think, if it’s going to happen, it will be when the banner is going up.

    REGIONALISM AND PROFESSIONAL HOCKEY Submitted to The Lethbridge Herald for publication by Reginald W. Bibby, Deparment of Sociology, The University of Lethbridge, January 17, 1977. BIOGRAPHICAL NOTE: R. W. BIBBY Reginald Bibby was born in Edmonton and received his B.A. from the University of Alberta, M.A. from the University of Calgary, and Ph.D. from Washington State University (1974). 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.

His current interests include Canadian Society and the Sociology of Sport. c c 1 "The best way you can help the manufacturers of Canada is to fill up the prairie regions of Manitoba and the Northwest with a prosperous and contented people who will be consumers of the manufactured goods of the east." -W.S. 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.

  • 2019 Stanley Cup Final
    2019 STANLEY CUP FINAL: EXPERIENCE MEETS NEWCOMERS A total of 45 players have appeared in at least one game for the Bruins (23) and Blues (22) during the 2019 Stanley Cup Playoffs, including 37 who have yet to play in the Stanley Cup Final (82.2%). * Five of the six Bruins with a Stanley Cup won with the team in 2011: Patrice Bergeron, Zdeno Chara, David Krejci, Brad Marchand and Tuukka Rask. The sixth is offseason acquisition Joakim Nordstrom, who won the Cup with the 2015 Blackhawks but did not play in the 2015 Stanley Cup Final. * After helping the expansion Golden Knights achieve unprecedented success in 2017-18, forward David Perron now aims to help the Blues cap their historic season with the franchise’s first Stanley Cup. Perron – now in his third stint with St. Louis – is the only Blues player to skate in these playoffs with experience in the Final, tallying 1-1—2 in four games against the Capitals last year. * Blues forward Jordan Nolan, who last played in the NHL on Jan. 21, tallied 0-1—1 in six games during the 2012 Final to help the Kings capture the franchise’s first-ever Stanley Cup. He also won it again with Los Angeles two years later, but did not play in the 2014 Stanley Cup Final. * St. Louis is the seventh team in the last 35 years to enter the pinnacle series with its players accounting for 10 or fewer games of Stanley Cup Final experience, joining Philadelphia in 1985 (6 GP), Edmonton in 2006 (7 GP), Ottawa in 2007 (7 GP in 2007), Vancouver in 2011 (7 GP), San Jose in 2016 (10 GP) and Nashville in 2017 (5 GP).

    John K. Samson PO Box 83‐971 Corydon Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3M 3S3 February 23, 2013 Mr. Bill Hay, Chairman of the Board, and Members of the Selection Committee The Hockey Hall of Fame 30 Yonge Street Toronto, Ontario M5V 1X8 Dear Mr. Bill Hay, Chairman of the Board, and Members of the Selection Committee, Hockey Hall of Fame; In accordance with the Hockey Hall of Fame’s Policy Regarding Public Submission of Candidates Eligible for Election into Honoured Membership, please accept this bona‐fide submission putting forth the name Reggie Joseph Leach for your consideration. A member of the Berens River First Nation, Reggie Joseph Leach was born in 1950 in Riverton, Manitoba. While facing the injustices of racism and poverty, and playing on borrowed skates for much of his childhood, Leach’s terrific speed and honed shooting skills earned him the nickname “The Riverton Rifle.” He went on to become one of the most gifted and exciting hockey players of his generation. His pro‐hockey accomplishments are truly impressive: two‐time NHL All Star, Conn Smythe Trophy winner (the only non‐goalie from a losing team to ever win it), 1975 Stanley Cup winner, 1976 Canada Cup winner, and Regular Season Goal Scoring Leader, to name a few. His minor league record is remarkable, too. As a legendary member of the MJHL/WCJHL Flin Flon Bombers, Mr. Leach led the league in goal‐scoring twice, and was placed on the First All‐ Star team every season he played. The statistical analysis in the pages that follow, prepared by Phil Russell of Dozen Able Men Data Design (Ottawa, Ontario), makes a clear and persuasive case that Mr.

Tampa Bay claimed its third championship in franchise history, adding to titles won in 2004 and 2020, with a 1-0 victory over the Canadiens in Game 5. * In a regular season that featured strictly divisional play and the birth of new rivalries, the Lightning opened their 28th campaign with a victory against the Blackhawks on Jan. 13 and concluded by hoisting the Cup on home ice for the second time (also 2004). * The Lightning’s championship journey included the first-ever all-Florida matchup in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, a six-game victory, followed by a five-game triumph over the Discover Central Division’s top- seeded Hurricanes. In an epic final-four rematch with the Islanders, the Lightning emerged from the Stanley Cup Semifinals with their sixth all-time Game 7 victory, setting up a meeting with the Canadiens in the Final. * After winning the Stanley Cup in a “bubble” in Edmonton in 2020, Tampa Bay hoisted the trophy in front of 18,110 fans at AMALIE Arena. It was the second time the Lightning won the Cup on home ice and fourth time in the last 10 years that any team has done so. * Tampa Bay (3) is just the second Florida-based franchise to win at least three titles in either the NHL, NBA (Miami Heat: 3), NFL (Miami Dolphins: 2; Tampa Bay Buccaneers: 2) or MLB (Florida Marlins: 2).

  • 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 7-8. Introduction Contents Curriculum Overview 2 Questions and Answers 3 Teacher’s complimentary Voucher 5 Working Committee Members 5 Teacher’s Fieldtrip Checklist 6 Map 6 Evaluation Form 7 Pre-visit Activity 8 Playing Certificate 10 HOCKEY HALL OF FAME EDUCATION PROGRAM Introduction 1 Intermediate Education Program Curriculum Overview The Hockey Hall of Fame’s Intermediate Education Program was designed in conjunction with Ontario’s Intermediate Curriculum to ensure that your students receive relevant, unique and fun lessons.
