ABSTRACT This work explores the origins of hockey from a sociocultural perspective, outlining its current situation in post-industrial western society in terms of its latent symbolism, the politics of gender and power; and illustrating hockey as a cornerstone of importance in Canadian national identity.

DEDICATION To JonBoy, because he started it, and to Pie, for being there when I finished and also to food, light, air, and blessed sleep - 1 couldn’t have done it without you. ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I would like here to acknowledge the help and advice of those who helped me to finish this monumental task, and to give me the courage to continue it to the next level. Firstly, thank you to my parents, John and Janet Bell, who listened when I had problems, and tirelessly discussed solutions with me; to my various friends and acquaintances, all of whom had a piece of advice or a tidbit of information for me to follow up; to my supervisor, Brian Given, for presenting me with that unfailing source of inspiration - a deadline; and, finally, to all the sportswriters and journalists whose works I combed over and tore apart in my search for the ideal story, with a special thank you to writer Roy MacGregor, who not only provided me with places to look, but was also the voice of reason when things got out of control. Thank you, all. ii Reproduced with permission of the copyright owner. Further reproduction prohibited without permission.

INTRODUCTION MY JOURNEY THROUGH SPORT Excitement: men in rapid, hard, close physical conflict, not just with bare hands, but armed with the knife blades o f skates and the hard, fast, deft sticks which could break bones when used right. He had noticed how many women were among the spectators, and for just a moment he thought that perhaps this was why - that here actual male blood could flow, not from the crude impact o f a heavier fist but from the rapid and delicate stroke o f weapons, which, like the European rapier or the frontier pistol, reduced mere size and brawn to its proper perspective to the passion and the will. But only for a moment because he, the innocent, didn’t like that idea either. It was the excitement o f speed and grace, with the puck for catalyst, to give it reason, meaning.

  • “Butterfly”? Hockey Players As Femoroacetabular Impingement (FAI) Is Thought to Be Derived from Repetitive Microtrauma by Austin V
    TEAM PHYSICIAN XS & OS The rising popularity of the “butterfly” position in amateur hockey may be Should We Limit Time Spent attributed to its success in the National Hockey League (NHL).1,2 The position carries potential risk for injury in youth in the “Butterfly”? hockey players as femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is thought to be derived from repetitive microtrauma By Austin V. Stone MD, PhD, and Shane J. Nho, MD, MS, Division of Sports Medicine, Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Rush University Medical Center which may be incurred in the position. Even in asymptomatic youth hockey players, FAI deformities are prevalent and suggest a reactionary bone formation not seen in other youth athletes.3 The research into the effects of the position is still limited despite high profile reporting of the position’s risk in Sports Illustrated2; however, widespread concerns for butterfly position related injuries in amateur to professional hockey have appeared in the lay press.4-8 The “butterfly” position is a technique that was heavily popularized by Patrick Roy’s success.1 The technique encourages goalies to increase their internal rotation of their hips and place the knees in valgus to lower the player’s center of gravity closer to the ice while maintaining a protective spread. When assuming the butterfly position, hockey goalies may often exceed their physiologic internal rotation.9 Supraphysiologic internal rotation and knee valgus can increase the injury risk.10,11 Hockey goalies are known to have an increased rate of hip injuries in the NHL. A recent report of NHL players reported the odds risk for injury was 1.68 (95% CI: 1.18 – 2.38) as a goalie compared to position player.11 A prevalence study performed between 2006–2010 in the NHL identified 1.84 injuries per 1000 appearances in goalies compared to position players (0.34 forwards; 0.47 limit pad flexibility.
