Quebec Major Junior Hockey League

It is hard to say that a game in the NHL has no effect on you in the playoffs. However, if there was it would have to be game one of the regular season. The game was the New York Rangers vs the Chicago Blackhawks, the pregame would be the banner raising ceremony for the 2015 Stanley Cup Champions. Then, after what seemed like a ceremony that took 2 hours long it was game time. The puck dropped and the season started, and it would be the Rangers on the board first with and goal by Oscar Lindberg,…

As we get through OTA's and begin yet another preseason in Tampa Bay, we believe we have the right guys in place on defense. With the acquisitions of Vinny Curry, J.P.P., Mitch Unrein, and Beau Allen added to the defensive line, it adds the depth we have not had in a long time! The line will consist of Gerald McCoy and Vita Vea mainly at the DT position, with Unrein and Allen likely as reserves, but those two, just might end up playing a bigger role than anyone thinks! At the DE spots, we have…

with a lot of loops. It had jumps over lakes, and it was the hardest training facility in the world. This was why it had to close down. The track was in a city in Québec. There were tons of people getting ready for this race for a long time. Callum, the mayor, called for this race because he wanted to see who was the best driver in Québec. The three main drivers were Ollie, Jack, and Jill. Anyone else could come and race but these three were the best out of the whole city. They were everyone’s…

As I read the article, “A Gay Referee Tries to Find His Place in Hockey” by Jason Buckland, it became obvious that the sport that I love so much needs to change. I had no idea that there wasn’t a single gay person in or even associated with the NHL. The NBA and the NFL have already welcomed their first gay players so why can’t the NHL? I’ve been playing hockey for the past 12 years and have often ignored the homophobic language because trash talk is so ingrained in hockey’s culture. Go on…

G- Chris Paul: 2011-Present On December 15, 2011 the entire fate of the Clippers’ franchise changed upon the acquisition of Chris Paul. His presence immediately propelled the team from an exciting team to watch into a legitimate NBA championship contender. In his five seasons with the team, the Clippers have made the Western Conference playoffs as many times as they had prior to his arrival. Paul has been an All-Star and has appeared on one of the three All-NBA Teams (3x First Team, 2x Second…

The Chicago Blackhawks are one of the most famed organizations in not only the National Hockey League, but in sports across the board. The team has a long-standing history of success, but recently the team has remained one of the most dominant groups in sports. The club has won three of the last six Stanley Cup Championships; the most recent being the 2015 championship. Unfortunately for the team, leadership and the fans that follow, the Blackhawks were unable to make it to the Stanley Cup…

Keim (2012) states that fighting is a crucial element of hockey. Since the argument claimed by the author is located in the second paragraph and the reasons are situated after the argument, the article presents a deductive organization. The three reasons provided by the author to support his thesis statement are: Physical punishment applied by the own players is an effective measure to restrain condemnable behaviour during the match; Hockey is an aggressive game by nature; Brawling solves…

In my last article, we discussed some sleeper point guards for the 2015-16 NBA season, so now it’s time to look at the shooting guard position. Shooting guards are the most difficult players for me to project in fantasy basketball. It’s so hard during the preseason to get a firm grasp on who will be starting and who’s minutes may see a decrease this season. I do in fact have some great sleeper options, though. From Monta Ellis to Zach LaVine, there are are plethora of talented guys to anchor…
