What Makes a Player Perform: Does Attendance Affect Performance? The Carolina Hurricanes is North Carolina’s premier hockey team having won the Stanley Cup in 2006. This victory means the Hurricanes are the only pro sports team in North Carolina who has won a major championship.

This lack of success has fueled relocation rumors and while relocating could help, it is not…

thought to have to battle to make the playoff lineup, seems to be in now. Steve Bernier might be lacking the offensive skills of Lee, but does bring a very valuable intangible to the table. 68 career playoff games, including a 2011-12 run to the Stanley Cup finals with the New Jersey Devils. He has even pitched in with a career playoff stat line of 9-14-23. We have said before how strange this season has been. Today, when we look at the injury report, especially in the Eastern conference, we…

be molded. The K-Cup goes through a long recycling process. However, there are many errors in the recycling process for K-Cups due to their small size. K-Cups have proven to be a major contributor in the generation of plastic waste. Even The New York Times has reported that K-Cups are neither biodegradable nor fully recyclable. In my opinion, the Keurig should never have been invented due to their extremely harmful effects on the environment. During the recycling process, K-Cups are easily…

the Triwizard Cup. Similarly, the Arthurian legend of The Quest for the Holy Grail tells of a quest for the Holy Grail, which can be described as a goblet or cup. The goal of this essay is to compare and contrast the two tales and expand on how the allusion lends to Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire.

out of facts but it should also include interpretations, commentary and comments on the interpretations. In this essay, I will discuss Varsity Cup Finals and my experience there off. I will argue that the Varsity Cup is not simple a rugby game it represents the current cultural phenomena at universities especially Stellenbosch university.

Pond Hockey and Civic Duty Whether at a stadium with referees and organized periods, or a pick up game with friends on the pond behind my house, I have always enjoyed hockey. However, each of these two styles of play is quite different. A good example of this is when the goalie covers the puck by their goal. In professional hockey, the players are always taught that until the referee blows the whistle, they are to jab their stick at the goalie and his glove in an attempt to knock the puck out…

As he got older and older he won more and more trophies, scored tons of goals, and broke a lot of records. After he retired he held 61 NHL records, and…
