  • The Amazing Rise and Fall of Bob Goodenow and the NHL Players Association (Revised and Updated), Key Porter Books, Toronto, 2006, Pp
    Reviews 117 Bruce Dowbiggin, Money Players: The Amazing Rise and Fall of Bob Goodenow and the NHL Players Association (Revised and Updated), Key Porter Books, Toronto, 2006, pp. 310, pb, US$15.95. In 2003, Bruce Dowbiggin published Money Players: How Hockey’s Greatest Stars Beat the NHL at its Own Game (Macfarlane Walter and Ross, Toronto). It provided an historical account of major issues and developments in the National Hockey League (NHL). It predicted that there would be a major battle between owners and players in forthcoming negotiations over a new collective bargaining agreement. This prediction proved to be correct. The 2004-2005 season was disrupted by a 301 day lockout as the owners sought to impose a salary cap on players. It exceeded the previous longest dispute of 234 days which had occurred in Major League Baseball in 1994-95. Amongst other things, the lockout resulted in a cancellation of the Stanley Cup. This 2006 publication, as its subtitle suggests, provides information on the various events associated with the unfolding of this dispute and the subsequent capitulation of the National Hockey League Players’ Association (NHLPA) and the abandonment of its leader Bob Goodenow. The major strength of this book is that it provides a lively account of economic and industrial relations developments in hockey (or what Australians call ice hockey). Dowbiggin is a leading sporting journalist and commentator based in Calgary. His stock-in-trade is in reporting on interviews he has had with major protagonists in the hockey world. Money Players does not contain a bibliography. Historical information that he provides draws on the works of David Cruise and Alison Griffiths, Net Worth: Exploding the Myths of Pro Hockey (Viking, Toronto, 1991); Russ Conway, Game Misconduct: Alan Eagleson and the Corruption of Hockey (Macfarlane Walter and Ross, Toronto, 1995); and Gil Stein, Power Plays: An Inside Look at the Big Business of the National Hockey League (Birch Lane Press, Secaucus, NJ, 1997).

    1 The Prague Spring It was much more than ice hockey, of course. It was a replay of a lost war. It started with an uprising, but it ended with a hockey game. Around 4:30 on the morning of August 21, 1968, a black Volga limousine, its bulbous, large headlights leading the way, sped from the Soviet embassy in Prague toward Czech Communist Party headquarters. Over the years, the black Volga limousine had become mythologized throughout Eastern Europe as the vehicle commonly involved in the abduction of citizens. In the early morning, thisCOPYRIGHTED particular Volga was trailed MATERIAL by a convoy of Soviet tanks. When the convoy arrived at Communist Party headquarters, operations forces sealed the premises and cut off all phone con- tact with the outside world. With that done, a group of Soviet troops armed with machine guns entered the offi ce of Alexander Dubcek, who just six months earlier had been selected as fi rst secretary of the Communist Party of Czechoslovakia. CC01.indd01.indd 1 33/27/12/27/12 112:032:03 PPMM 2 Breakaway Although a Soviet colonel had initially entered the offi ce, where Dubcek was meeting with members of his cabinet, it was two plainclothes offi cers—one old, one young—sporting tweed jackets and open-neck shirts who initiated the dialogue as soldiers stood by the door, machine guns in tow. “Comrade Dubcek,” they respectfully addressed him. “You are to come with us straight away.” “Who are you, what do you want?” Dubcek replied. By the time Dubcek and his colleagues were placed under arrest and escorted by KGB agents to a barracks in the Carpathian Mountains in what is now Ukraine, Operation Danube had over- taken Czechoslovakia.

INTRODUCTION Professional sports leagues make up a world of their own in which the best athletes, employed by various teams, display their talents before thousands of spectators. The National Hockey League (NHL) is undoubtedly the most popular professional sports league in Canada. The NHL is composed of thirty teams, six in Canada and twenty-four in the United States' that compete every year for the Stanley Cup, the archetypal dream of every professional hockey player. Since it was created in 1917,2 the NHL has grown into an industry that generates billions of dollars in revenues, which are shared by a handful of players and franchise owners across North America. Given the billions of dollars involved from revenues generated by spectator ticket sales, television rights, and the sale of related products, the * Mathieu Fournier is a lawyer in the province of Quebec.

    Historica Canada Education Portal 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.

The authors discuss some of the major concerns from both Title IX supporters and opponents because neither side was satisfied with the makeup and charge of the Commission. In summary, Title IX presents a critical and unbiased overview of the law, is well written, and provides a logical flow and sequence. It can be used as both a quick reference for a specific question or as an in-depth overview to broaden the understanding of Title IX and its application. Any student, academician, or practi- tioner interested in learning more about Title IX should consider adding this text to their library. References Gavora, J. (2002).

A Must for Parents and Children Involved in Any SportBy Bill EmblomHow did you spend New Year's Day? I spent mine reading this book in its entirety. I had a difficult time putting it down and I wouldn't know a blue line from a clothes line. Of course I'm aware that Bobby Orr played hockey for the Boston Bruins but this is a book for both players and parents of any sport their child participates in. Bobby Orr does not emphasize his numerous accomplishments in hockey. In fact his greatest memory of the sport is the time he spent playing the game as a child on rinks near his home at Parry Sound, Ontario. Tennyson once wrote, "I am a part of all that I have met" and Bobby Orr spends a great deal of time in recognizing those who helped him from the time he was a child throughout his career at a professional hockey player. He realizes that what we accomplish we don't do on our own without the help of significant others along the way.Orr concludes the book by giving his opinions on the state of the game today and mentions suggested rule changes he would make and the reasons for them.

The future of the University of Toronto was a major Canadian political issue in the 1840s, Friedland writes, as Reformers like Robert Baldwin tried to wrest control of the colony’s institutions from the Tory “Family Compact” and the Anglican Church, during a period of unprecedented political upheaval in the colony. On April 3rd, 1849, Robert Baldwin introduced a bill into the parliament of the province of Canada to convert King’s College into the University of Toronto. It would completely secularize the university, eliminating any publicly f unded chairs of divinity and all religious tests for any member of the university, whether student or professor. 2 “Poets are the unacknowledged legislators of the world.” - Percy Bysshe Shelley Vigil for Canadian Mosque Terror Victims by Evelyn Gigantes There is warmth in a group of humans Even at minus 17.

In re- cent seasons, the National Hockey League's (NHL)1 free agent system allowed a few key players to catapult into salary ranges closer to those regularly realized in other major league sports.2 However, salary escala- tion3 and the bargaining abilities of free agents resulted in growing labor disputes, and the once cordial relationship between players and manage- ment lapsed into the first players' strike in NHL history on April 1, 1992.' While players may choose to challenge their contracts or threaten management, the collective bargaining agreement (CBA) terms are, once bargained for, difficult, if not impossible, to flex.
