  • Montreal Canadiens, Detroit Red Wings Destination: Europe the Canadiens and Red Wings Become the First Teams to Play a Series of Postseason Exhibition Games in Europe
    NHL OVERSEAS HISTORY 1938: Montreal Canadiens, Detroit Red Wings Destination: Europe The Canadiens and Red Wings become the first teams to play a series of postseason exhibition games in Europe. New York Herald Tribune sportswriter Sparrow Robertson on the games played in Paris: "The professional ice hockey players of the two teams in Paris are a fine lot of players. Next week the two teams are scheduled to play in London and the hockey enthusiasts of the big city will see the fastest competition game played by humans as it should be played. It is really thrilling to witness ice hockey such as we have seen played in Paris by the Montreal Canadiens and Detroit Red Wings." May 1959: Boston Bruins, New York Rangers Destination: Europe After the 1959 season, the Boston Bruins and New York Rangers embarked on a 10-city, 23- game European tour. The Bruins had finished second in the six-team league that year, while the Rangers had placed fifth. But European fans were treated to competitive, exciting games and introduced to some of North America's brightest stars. The tour stopped in London, England; Geneva, Switzerland; Paris, France; Antwerp, Belgium; Zurich, Switzerland; Dortmund, Germany; Essen Germany; Krekfeld, Germany; Berlin, Germany and Vienna, Austria. April 1976: Washington Capitals, Kansas City Scouts Destination: Japan The second-year Scouts, who would later become the Colorado Rockies and then the New Jersey Devils, faced the Washington Capitals, also a second-year franchise, in a four-game series in Tokyo and Sapporo. The Caps, who had finished the regular season at the foot of the Wales Conference standings, handed the Scouts, the bottom team in the Campbell Conference, a 3-1 defeat in the series.

  • Master Thesis
    Master Thesis Location decisions in professional ice hockey “Is the Greater Toronto/Southern Ontario region a viable market for National Hockey League relocation?” Rijksuniversiteit Groningen Faculteit der Ruimtelijke wetenschappen Jaïr de Paauw S1573152 28-09-2007 Eerste Begeleider: Drs. P.J.M. van Steen Tweede Begeleider: Dr. P.R.A. Terpstra Preface This paper is the result of a thesis research concluding the master Economic Geography at the Rijksuniversiteit Groningen. This research has been conducted at the State University of New York at Geneseo, thanks to the partnership the between the two respective spatial sciences faculties and adds an international dimension to my master thesis. The research topic is franchise relocations in professional sports, and in particular in ice hockey. Being an avid hockey fan myself, this topic appeals to me. The phenomenon that hockey franchises could just move, and especially move from Canadian cities that breathe hockey, to Sunbelt cities has always fascinated me. By this research I was able to combine two passions; hockey and geography. While conducting my research I soon realized how complex and sometimes illogic geographical decisions made in the American sports industry are. It triggered me to continue my research with the same enthusiasm as when I started. Apart from remaining interested in this dynamic topic throughout the research, the actual research and its practical implementations caused a whole new learning experience as well. Concluding the entire thesis experience has been interesting and helpful in obtaining academic knowledge. Even though the research was conducted abroad and regularly meetings with my advisor were not possible, I remained in contact by e-mail, and the cooperation was very pleasant and productive.
