Community Wins the Opportunity to Host an NHL® Pre-Season Game and $150,000 in Arena Upgrades Community Wins the Opportunity to Host an NHL® Pre-Season Game and $150,000 in Arena Upgrades PITTSBURGH & CHICAGO--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Kraft Heinz is thrilled to announce Clinton Arena in Clinton, N.Y. is the winner of Kraft Hockeyville™USA 2018. After weeks of rallying and online voting, Clinton rallied together to prove exactly why they are the most spirited hockey community in America. The Kraft Hockeyville™ USA contest, now in its fourth year and in partnership with the National Hockey League (NHL®) and the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA), is proud to award Clinton Arena in Clinton, N.Y. an opportunity to host an NHL® Pre-Season Game and $150,000 in rink upgrades. Clinton Arena is a staple of the local hockey community in Clinton, N.Y. After suffering a fire in 1949 and rebuilding from scratch six years later, this beloved gem has served generations of young hockey players for nearly 70 years. Cementing its history, Clinton Arena was proudly listed on the National Historic Register in 2010. While the venue still has many of its original fixtures intact today, the prize money from Kraft Hockeyville™ USA will go toward improvements to a number of features, including the arena’s roof, locker room and seating. “After an exciting face-off between our top four contenders, we’re thrilled to award Clinton the title of ‘Kraft Hockeyville™USA 2018,’” said Michelle St. Jacques, head of brand marketing and R&D. “Clinton brought to life the essence of this program – both on and off the rink – and showed inspiring passion to rally their community. We’re excited to celebrate this win with them later this year.” Rinks from across the country participated in this year’s bid for the title of “Kraft Hockeyville™USA 2018.” The runner-up, Brandon Valley in Brandon, S.D., will receive $30,000 to use toward rink upgrades, and George’s Pond at Hirsch Coliseum in Shreveport, La. and Memorial Sports Center in Middlebury, Vt. will each receive $10,000. In addition to the rink upgrades – and with the support of Kraft Heinz – NHLPA Goals & Dreams, the players’ charitable grassroots hockey program, will donate new hockey equipment to select Kraft Hockeyville™ USA communities, giving more disadvantaged youth the opportunity to play hockey. These donations continue the work of the players’ charitable initiative which for more than 18 years has assisted grassroots programs all around the world. Since launching in Canada in 2006, Kraft Hockeyville™ has positively impacted more than 80 communities with over $4 million donated in rink upgrades across Canada and the U.S. Previous U.S. winners include Belle Vernon, Pa. in 2017, Marquette, Mich. in 2016 and Johnstown, Pa. in 2015. “Each year, Kraft Hockeyville™ USA puts a spotlight on the importance of local ice rinks to communities all across the country," NHL Chief Brand Officer and Executive Vice President Brian Jennings said. "Community support is crucial to the growth of hockey and Kraft Heinz’s commitment to this program is making a significant impact. Congratulations to Clinton Arena in Clinton, New York and to all of this year's Kraft Hockeyville™ USA participants. The overwhelming response from cities nationwide is proof positive of the local commitment to ice rinks and the youth hockey players, coaches, parents and volunteers that call it home.” “We are proud to partner with Kraft Heinz to continue bringing the NHL into more communities across the U.S. We know this year’s Kraft Hockeyville™ USA winner, Clinton Arena in Clinton, New York will be another great host,” said Mathieu Schneider, NHLPA Special Assistant to the Executive Director. “The players who hit the ice next September are looking forward to the celebration with the passionate fans of Clinton.” For program details, visit www.KraftHockeyville.com.

    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.

    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).

    NATIONAL HOCKEY LEAGUE ALL-STAR GAME, THE WINTER CLASSIC AND THE NHL DRAFT As part of its commitment to environmental stewardship, the National Hockey League joined forces with NRDC on sustainability initiatives in 2008, when NRDC assembled an NHL Greening Advisor for each team in the league. The NRDC Greening Advisor for the NHL, like those produced by NRDC for other leagues and organizations, is a web-based resource that offers environmental guidance and strategies to promote more sustainable practices for NHL team and arena operations. “Most of our players learned to skate on outdoor rinks,” Starting in the 2010-11 season, the NHL established a says NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman. “For that magnificent league-wide initiative to work with Rock and Wrap It Up! to tradition to continue through future generations we need donate unused prepared food. All 30 NHL teams committed winter weather—and, as a league, we are uniquely positioned to pack up all prepared but unsold concession food on game to promote that message. We are thrilled to be able to work nights for redistribution to local shelters and other places with the NRDC and to draw upon its vast experience and that serve people in need. Over the course of the initiative’s expertise in greening league events and league and club first full season, NHL clubs provided 163,000 meals to operations." people in need and diverted 105 tons of food from landfills In January 2010, with support from NRDC, the NHL and incinerators across North America.

    * All four teams involved were among the top four in their conference in 2019-20: Colorado (No. 2) and Vegas (No. 3) in the Western Conference, and Boston (No. 1) and Philadelphia (No. 4) in the Eastern Conference. They all advanced to at least the Second Round of the 2020 Stanley Cup Playoffs. * These four teams are led by two of the longest-serving and two of the newest captains in the NHL. Philadelphia’s Claude Giroux and Colorado’s Gabriel Landeskog each received the “C” in 2012-13; their nine seasons as captain trail only Sidney Crosby (14), Jonathan Toews (13), Alex Ovechkin (12) and Ryan Getzlaf (11) for the longest active tenures. Vegas’ Mark Stone and Boston’s Patrice Bergeron each received the distinction this season – Stone became the first captain in Golden Knights history, while Bergeron became the first player other than Zdeno Chara to where the “C” for the Bruins since Joe Thornton in 2005-06. * Nevada will become the 13th different state (plus the District of Columbia) to host an NHL regular-season outdoor game. In 2018, Nevada became the 16th different state to host a Stanley Cup Final game since the NHL was founded in 1917-18. * The two games in the NHL Outdoors at Lake Tahoe series will be played at 6,224 feet above sea level, second-highest for an NHL regular-season outdoor game behind the 2020 Stadium Series between the Avalanche and Kings at Falcon Stadium (6,621 feet).

  • Season Like No Other Ends with Lightning
    SEASON LIKE NO OTHER ENDS WITH LIGHTNING LIFTING STANLEY CUP Nearly a full year after the opening face-off of the 2019-20 campaign and more than six months after the League hit “pause” on the regular season, the Tampa Bay Lightning won Game 6 of the Stanley Cup Final to claim their second championship. * The clinching victory came 363 days after the puck dropped on the regular season, 201 days after the pause began and 65 days after players entered “Bubbles” in Edmonton and Toronto for a postseason unlike any other in League history. * The Lightning opened their 27th season with a victory against the intrastate rival Panthers on Oct. 3, 2019, and concluded it by hoisting the Cup to avenge one of the most monumental upsets in League history. After matching the single-season NHL record for wins in 2018-19, the Lightning were swept by the Blue Jackets in the First Round. * Tampa Bay became the third team in NHL history to win the Stanley Cup after being swept in a best-of-seven series during the opening round of the previous postseason, joining the 1967 Maple Leafs and 1961 Black Hawks. * The Lightning are the first franchise to join the League in the 1990s or later and win the Stanley Cup multiple times, though the trophy presentation looked quite different this time around. Former captain Dave Andreychuk accepted the team’s first Cup on June 7, 2004 after Game 7 against the Calgary Flames in front of a crowd of 22,717 at St. Pete Times Forum, while current captain Steven Stamkos accepted the trophy alongside the entire team at center ice at Rogers Place in Edmonton.

  • Longest Matches in NHL Playoff History
    Longest Matches in NHL Playoff History In the NHL, teams play three 20-minute periods of hockey. If the score is tied at the end of the three periods then a five minute overtime period is played. If there is no score at the end of overtime period then a shoot out settles the game. During the Stanley Cup Playoffs there are no shoot outs. If two teams are tied at the end of regulation then 20-minute overtime periods are played sudden death style until a team scores a goal. Once a goal is scored in overtime the game is over. If a goal is not scored in an overtime period then additional 20-minute overtime periods are played until a team scores. This overtime process can result in some very long playoff games! A regulation NHL game is 60 minutes of actual hockey, which takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes to play when you add in timeouts and intermissions. The table below gives the longest NHL games in history. The minutes of OT (overtime) does not include the regular 60 minutes of game play.

  • September 18Th, Pioneer Pages Combined
    Rooted in tradition · Exploring the future Vol. 46 · Issue #1 Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2013 Loyalist College · Belleville, ON · Canada Stirling welcomes Hockeyville By Christopher King Kraft Hockeyville descended upon the town of Stirling-Rawdon and District for a second year on Sept. 14. Hockeyville is a program that is award- ed to the town that demonstrates its love for hockey and the ability of a community to come together to show that. Commu- nities that win are awarded $100,000 and two NHL teams host an exhibition game and Hockey Night in Canada broadcasts in the community. Last year, the NHL lockout prevented any exhibition games. This year, however, the lack of a lockout allowed the Winni- peg Jets to compete against the Washing- ton Capitals. At the Stirling-Rawdon and District Recreation Centre, Kraft Hockeyville laid out the red carpet on the ice for the Stanley Cup. Four players, two from each team, attended a question-and-answer period before families took their turn tak- ing photos of themselves with the cup. Guests wrote down questions and the NHL players responded in person at the arena. The questions varied from the players’ choice of video games to whether or not they would marry one audience member. They were asked about their routine and their favourite or least favou- rite parts about hockey. Photo by Samantha Pyear “It varies Monday through Saturday.
