  • Laine Loses Teenager Tag
    Winnipeg Free Press https://www.winnipegfreepress.com/sports/hockey/jets/laine-loses-teenager-tag- 480309243.html Laine loses teenager tag By: Mike McIntyre Nobody gave Patrik Laine the bumps. And there was no rousing rendition of Happy Birthday sung in the locker room. But Matt Hendricks did give Laine a shaving cream pie to the face, while Nikolaj Ehlers offered up a barb about the gift he was planning to give his buddy. "My company. It’s pretty priceless," Ehlers deadpanned. Laine said goodbye to his teens on Thursday by turning 20. He had no big plans to mark the occasion, save for spending some time with family in town and playing some video games, of course. "We gave him a couple hugs and high-fives. He's not a teenager anymore, so that's positive," said forward Bryan Little. So does Laine feel any wiser now that he's one year older? "I don’t think so. I’ve always been wise. It’s not going to just change for the day. I’m still wise. I like it this way," said Laine, who sits third all-time for regular-season goals scored by a teenager with 80. "I’m happy with my numbers as a teenager. Now I’m disappointed that it’s over but I’m happy what I was able to do before my 20th birthday. It’s nice to be here," Laine said Thursday. He's got two goals already in this playoff series and said he's looking forward to lighting the lamp for a first time as a 20-year-old.

  • Blind Faith and a Pig in a Poke: How the Ottawa Civics Briefly Ruled
    Blind Faith and a Pig in a Poke: How the Ottawa Civics Briefly Ruled Canada’s Capital The hockey-starved citizens of Ottawa were ready and willing… but unable to support their second World Hockey Association franchise by Steve Currier During the World Hockey Association’s rocky seven-year jaunt into the realm of big-time professional sports, many franchises came and went; most of them were bloodsuckers rather than cash cows. Remember the Michigan Stags? How about the Jersey Knights? Or the Minnesota Fighting Saints (both versions of them)? Although none of the aforementioned clubs would ever rival the Montreal Canadiens or even the Columbus Blue Jackets as model franchises, they were world-beaters compared to the subject of this paper, the Ottawa Civics. The Civics weren’t particularly bad, and fans were so enthused about their new team that they lined up around the block for tickets and even snarled up downtown traffic. So what happened for the Civics to last just two weeks in Canada’s capital? The Civics started their life as the Denver Spurs, a Western Hockey League expansion franchise that sputtered its way through six (mostly) terrible seasons. The one exception was 1971/72, when the Spurs finished first overall in the WHL standings, and won the league’s Lester Patrick Cup. By 1974, the WHL had folded, and the Spurs were on their way to the Central Hockey League, where they would finish the year 36-29-13. While that was all well and good, the people of Denver craved NHL hockey, and for a while, it seemed as though the struggling California Golden Seals would move to the Mile High City.
