  • A Matter of Inches My Last Fight
    INDEPENDENT PUBLISHERS GROUP A Matter of Inches How I Survived in the Crease and Beyond Clint Malarchuk, Dan Robson Summary No job in the world of sports is as intimidating, exhilarating, and stress­ridden as that of a hockey goaltender. Clint Malarchuk did that job while suffering high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder and had his career nearly literally cut short by a skate across his neck, to date the most gruesome injury hockey has ever seen. This autobiography takes readers deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. When his carotid artery was slashed during a collision in the crease, Malarchuk nearly died on the ice. Forever changed, he struggled deeply with depression and a dependence on alcohol, which nearly cost him his life and left a bullet in his head. Now working as the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, Malarchuk reflects on his past as he looks forward to the future, every day grateful to have cheated death­twice. 9781629370491 Pub Date: 11/1/14 Author Bio Ship Date: 11/1/14 Clint Malarchuk was a goaltender with the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. $25.95 Hardcover Originally from Grande Prairie, Alberta, he now divides his time between Calgary, where he is the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, and his ranch in Nevada.

  • Dobber's 2010-11 Fantasy Guide
    DOBBER’S 2010-11 FANTASY GUIDE DOBBERHOCKEY.COM – HOME OF THE TOP 300 FANTASY PLAYERS I think we’re at the point in the fantasy hockey universe where DobberHockey.com is either known in a fantasy league, or the GM’s are sleeping. Besides my column in The Hockey News’ Ultimate Pool Guide, and my contributions to this year’s Score Forecaster (fifth year doing each), I put an ad in McKeen’s. That covers the big three hockey pool magazines and you should have at least one of them as part of your draft prep. The other thing you need, of course, is this Guide right here. It is not only updated throughout the summer, but I also make sure that the features/tidbits found in here are unique. I know what’s in the print mags and I have always tried to set this Guide apart from them. Once again, this is an automatic download – just pick it up in your downloads section. Look for one or two updates in August, then one or two updates between September 1st and 14th. After that, when training camp is in full swing, I will be updating every two or three days right into October. Make sure you download the latest prior to heading into your draft (and don’t ask me on one day if I’ll be updating the next day – I get so many of those that I am unable to answer them all, just download as late as you can). Any updates beyond this original release will be in bold blue.

  • Marcel Pronovost, 1930-2015
    Contact: Mike Levine Pete Albietz FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE MONDAY, APRIL 27, 2015 MARCEL PRONOVOST, 1930-2015 Newark, NJ – Marcel Pronovost, a Hall-of-Fame defenseman, five-time Stanley Cup Champion, and 11-time All-Star who served the New Jersey Devils as an Ontario-based scout since 1990, passed away Sunday afternoon at the age of 84 in his hometown of Windsor, Ontario. “The entire hockey world is saddened by the loss of Marcel Pronovost,” said Devils’ President/General Manager Lou Lamoriello. “Marcel was a caring individual who dedicated his life to his family and to the game of hockey. He was a long-time member of our Devils’ family, a lifetime friend to the hockey community, and will be missed. Our thoughts and prayers are with the entire Pronovost family.” Marcel is survived by his second wife, Eva; son Leo and his wife Tina; son Michel and his wife Marie; daughter, Brigitte Stickley and her husband Wayne; along with his three grandchildren. He was pre-deceased by his first wife, Cindy, in 1993. Funeral arrangements are pending. Pronovost joined the Devils in 1990, and was a member of the scouting staff during each of the organization’s three Stanley Cup Championships. He joined the club after five years with the NHL’s Central Scouting Bureau. Pronovost finished his 20-year career in 1969-70, including 15 seasons with Detroit and five with Toronto, appearing in 1,206 NHL regular-season games and 134 playoff games. He began his post-playing career as a player/coach with Tulsa in 1969-70, and was named CHL Coach of the Year in 1971- 72.
