  • Jets Enter Free Agency with Distinct Needs
    Winnipeg Sun http://www.winnipegsun.com/2017/06/29/jets-enter-free-agency-with-distinct-needs Jets enter free agency with distinct needs BY KEN WIEBE, WINNIPEG SUN Kevin Cheveldayoff is well aware the clock is ticking and the free agency bell is about to ring. The courting period has provided the Winnipeg Jets with the opportunity to express interest in several players they'd like to pursue come Saturday when the window to sign unrestricted free agents officially opens. Several players — including goalies Steve Mason and Brian Elliott and defenceman Karl Alzner, among others — have at least demonstrated some level of interest in joining the Jets. It's important to remember: for agents, the courting period is the time to drum up additional interest for the client. And a lot can happen between now and Saturday. Another team can swoop in with a bigger offer or provide an additional year or higher dollar amount to seal the deal. But the Jets go into this weekend with two distinct needs at the top of the wish list: an experienced starting goalie to share the net with Connor Hellebuyck and a defenceman who can play the left side, preferably a left-handed shooter. Historically, the Jets haven't been a team to swing for the fences or overpay to land a marquee name on July 1. Veteran centre Olli Jokinen was a place-holder and his signing in 2012 allowed Mark Scheifele to get some additional seasoning at the junior level before he was ready to be a full-time NHLer.

But subjective claims of harm are hard to prove and are often thwarted by First Amendment protections, because judges remain reluctant to regulate expressive and commercial freedom of speech based on offense.

  • An Evolutionary View on Conflict Escalation in Team Sports Competitions
    Human Ethology Bulletin 31 (2016)2: 45-51 Brief Report AN EVOLUTIONARY VIEW ON CONFLICT ESCALATION IN TEAM SPORTS COMPETITIONS Cyril C. Grueter, Liam Johnson, Michael Leaning, Ming Jay Tan, Zane Jones & Jeremy Peris School of Anatomy, Physiology and Human Biology, University of Western Australia, Perth, Australia [email protected] ABSTRACT It has been theorized that escalated aggression in animal intergroup contests is more likely to occur when the fighting ability or resource holding potential (RHP) of the two involved groups are similar. In an attempt to test this model for human intergroup contests, we investigated the effect of differences in RHP on aggression during ice hockey games. We mined data on penalty minutes accrued and differences in team ranks for professional ice hockey games (n = 1230) in the National Hockey League of Northern America (NHL). The former served as a surrogate measure of conflict escalation and the latter was used as a proxy for RHP. Using a linear mixed model approach, we found a significant but weak negative effect of differences in team ranks on penalty minutes, i.e. escalation was marginally more frequent when teams were more similar in rank. Various possible shortcomings of the study design are discussed. Key words: Resource holding potential, conflict escalation, sports contests ______________________________________________________________ INTRODUCTION In dyadic and group-level animal contests, both the relative fighting ability of the contestants and the consequences of winning or losing (i.e. the resource value at stake) are thought to influence the probability of conflict escalation and encounter outcomes (Arnott Grueter, C.C. et al.: An Evolutionary View on Conflict Escalation in Team Sports Competitions Human Ethology Bulletin 31 (2016)2: 45-51 and Elwood, 2008; Enquist and Leimar, 1987; Maynard Smith and Parker, 1976; Sherratt and Mesterton-Gibbons 2013).
