You really don’t get it???? The people that play ball hockey don’t just play b/c they want to cool like lacross players, they play b/c they love the sport of hockey. no matter what type of turf they play on, they are still playing hockey. When I first started playing, I played what they used to call street hockey, and Yes, it was on the concrete!!! Imagine that huh, hockey on cement???? Now before you cry anymore for more time to practice realize that real hockey players play no matter what b/c they love it. get over it and be a man and play hockey on the concrete who knows you might just hurt yourself.

Finally the CFL has arrived for another season! I agree, the 3 minute warning can produce 3 touchdowns.

Well, I’ll put it to you like this. He’s the captain. I don’t see him playing any style of hockey that would want to motivate me or anyone else. There’s no heart in his game, and even before the lock out, he was no where in the playoffs. A true sign that when push came to shove, he didn’t have what it takes. He never had what it took to take his team to the next level.

Ball hockey is fun. Thats all. Especially for the kids who can’t afford ice hockey. I play every week and its a great way to keep fit.
I agree with playing many sports too improve conditioning but the main point of sports is too have fun. If you want to develop skills and condition, take your own advice and try some other sports as well.

Iginla is 100 percent going to be the captain, no question about it.

Wow. Heavy, heavy outcry against Nazzy!

I think it may very well be that his time is coming to a close. And I also agree that the coach cannot be blamed for everything. But please don’t tell me that management can’t be blamed for some, and don’t tell me that Naslund is garbage.

There are a number of factors here. Firstly, he’s now verging on 35. That’s old in hockey years. Almost no one gets 100 points again after reaching 35. So he’s not a Sakic… we knew that already. But he can still contribute 25 goals a year and that’s not half-bad.

The other thing is that he has no linemate that works with him. He was very accustomed to playing alongside fellow scorers. That’s pretty important. Again, only the elite of the elite manage to score alone. Crosby, he ain’t. But the fact that he can get 25 goals without a linemate isn’t half bad.

Naslund was always well-spoken, particularly in the first year after the lockout when his team was crumbling around him. He still puts in an effort on the ice, and never comes away from a loss looking like he’s resting easy. If anything, his spirit has been defeated by witnessing a franchise go down the drain, and his career along with it. He’s old. He’s past his heyday. And he likely won’t see a Cup any time soon in Vancouver, since they’re lacking any coherent direction as a club. That, and the fact that he’s become a scapegoat, and he has every reason to be giving up on the club.

Now, I don’t blame the management for everything. In fact, most of all I blame fans and the media for beating up on a guy who’s past his prime. The team absolutely should offer him a contract — $2-3 million a year, just like any other aging star who can chip in 25 goals a year. I’d be quite proud to have him manning the second line and being put into a secondary role behind whatever superstars the new GM can conjure up… that’s what a 35-year old is supposed to do!

Comment on The Focus on Leafs Nation by Bruce Hockey

Bruce Hockey — Wed, 14 May 2008 18:40:24 +0000

I don’t get it. Leafs management has always been a joke. The problem is on top. The top now goes and fires all the middle managers when the source of the problem is themselves. It’s the structure. They are only interested in operating a successful (profitable) company. Winning has no bearing as long as the seats stay full. Any sports franchise will only win if the owner is driven to win. A committee will never have the same passion for winning as a single driven man. Sorry Toronto fans but it will be more of the same. More mediocore teams for a long time to come.

Wow, i loved watching Sean play he was really good, I was thinking about making him a page on National Hall of Records because it is free till memorial day I built a page for my grandfather that died a few years back on National Hall of Records, they are running a free campaign until Memorial Day. You might think of building a page on there too. It’s a great site! Sorry for your loss! Best Brian

Comment on Gillis was right by nebcanuck

nebcanuck — Thu, 01 May 2008 01:58:08 +0000

Yeah, I liked to hear him give such a clear-cut message, myself. It was a bit tough since we were a second-round team last year, but we are not on pace to win a Cup anytime soon. Even though I still think the Canucks are a playoff team when healthy, they aren’t in shape to keep on moving forward. San Jose fans must be getting tired of watching their team die in the second round every year; I don’t feel like cheering for a team that does the same!

I don’t know if Gillis will have much sense of which players can help or not. But Nonis clearly did not — with the exception of Luongo — and so it’s time to give someone else a chance. And, as I said, I would love to see it be someone who tells us up front what’s needed, not someone who is hush hush about everything behind the scenes.

Comment on Ravens trade again, this time up to No. 18 by Mike

Mike — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 19:15:54 +0000

As a Ravens fan I think this was the right move. Knowing they couldn’t get Ryan yet they could still get Flacco by moving down and adding more picks was smart. They need to get younger all around and the more picks, obviously the better.
