In the process, they'll have to defeat the defending IIHF World Champion Canada, who is on top of the IIHF World Ranking coming into Prague. Above, Anson Carter, who scored the dramatic overtime Gold Medal winner last year against Sweden, tries to stay in possession by screening Czech defenseman Pavel Kolarik in the semi-final game in 2003.

  • 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addition to a new ice surface and boards, fans will appreciate the new heating system; the burning of natural gas has been replaced by recycled heat generated by the new refrigeration system.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.

    Portail de l'éducation de Historica Canada Canada's Game - The Modern Era Overview This lesson plan is based on viewing the Footprints videos for Gordie Howe, Bobby Orr, Father David Bauer, Bobby Hull,Wayne Gretzky, and The Forum. Throughout hockey's history, though they are not presented in the Footprints, francophone players like Guy Lafleur, Mario Lemieux, Raymond Bourque, Jacques Lemaire, and Patrick Roy also made a significant contribution to the sport. Parents still watch their children skate around cold arenas before the sun is up and backyard rinks remain national landmarks. But hockey is no longer just Canada's game. Now played in cities better known for their golf courses than their ice rinks, hockey is an international game. Hockey superstars and hallowed ice rinks became national icons as the game matured and Canadians negotiated their role in the modern era. Aims To increase student awareness of the development of the game of hockey in Canada; to increase student recognition of the contributions made by hockey players as innovators and their contributions to the game; to examine their accomplishments in their historical context; to explore how hockey has evolved into the modern game; to understand the role of memory and commemoration in our understanding of the past and present; and to critically investigate myth-making as a way of understanding the game’s relationship to national identity. Background Frozen fans huddled in the open air and helmet-less players battled for the puck in a -28 degree Celsius wind chill. The festive celebration was the second-ever outdoor National Hockey League game, held on 22 November 2003.

  • For Immediate Release June 5, 2021 Matthews, Slavin And
    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE JUNE 5, 2021 MATTHEWS, SLAVIN AND SPURGEON VOTED LADY BYNG TROPHY FINALISTS NEW YORK (June 5, 2021) – Toronto Maple Leafs center Auston Matthews, Carolina Hurricanes defenseman Jaccob Slavin and Minnesota Wild defenseman Jared Spurgeon are the three finalists for the 2020-21 Lady Byng Memorial Trophy, awarded “to the player adjudged to have exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct combined with a high standard of playing ability,” the National Hockey League announced today. Members of the Professional Hockey Writers Association submitted ballots for the Lady Byng Trophy at the conclusion of the regular season, with the top three vote-getters designated as finalists. The winners of the 2021 NHL Awards presented by Bridgestone will be revealed during the Stanley Cup Semifinals and Stanley Cup Final, with exact dates, format and times to be announced. Following are the finalists for the Lady Byng Trophy, in alphabetical order: Auston Matthews, C, Toronto Maple Leafs Matthews posted a League-leading 41 goals, 12 game-winning goals and 222 shots on goal (41-25—66) to earn his first career Maurice “Rocket” Richard Trophy and help the Maple Leafs claim their first division title since 1999-00. Matthews, who ranked fifth among NHL forwards with 21:33 of time on ice per game and ninth among all skaters with 47 takeaways, received 10 penalty minutes during his 52 appearances – the second- fewest among the League’s top 25 scorers behind only Artemi Panarin (6 PIM in 42 GP w/ NYR). The 23-year- old Scottsdale, Ariz., native – a finalist for the second straight season after placing second in voting in 2019-20 – is vying to become the eighth different player to win the Lady Byng Trophy with Toronto and just the second to do so in the expansion era (since 1967-68), following Alexander Mogilny in 2002-03.

  • The 1917 Allan Cup Championship
    The 1917 Allan Cup Championship From January to February 1917 four teams strived for the championship of the Thunder Bay League who would then play for the Allan Cup against five other teams. The four Thunder Bay teams consisted of the 141st Battalion, Port Arthur, Fort William, and Schreiber. Whichever team won would then be playing from February to March 1917 for the Allan Cup, won by the 61st Winnipeg Battalion in 1916. Due to last year’s winner being overseas, they would be replaced by the Winnipeg Victorias and the 221st Winnipeg Battalion. Starting on January 1st of 1917, Port Arthur was up against Fort William in a very physical game of hockey. Fort William stayed in the lead since the beginning of the game, only giving Port Arthur one goal against them during the whole Port Arthur News Chronicle game, and won with a high score of 6-1. January 2, 1917 After Port Arthur took the win on the fourth, the 141st Battalion went head to head against Fort William, again keeping the score tied for most of the game. Luckily they did not have to go into overtime and instead, while Fort William had a lead of 3-2 in the third period of the game, the soldiers turned the play around and scored three more goals within nine minutes left of the game, ultimately defeating Fort William Three days after Port Arthur’s loss on the first they had to play the 141st Battalion in a racing fight to win. By third period they were tied 2-2 and were forced to go into overtime.
