NHL Videos and Books: Most of the popular NHL teams release their team’s videos after every season. These videos contain the highlights of their matches in the previous years, with special interviews and commentaries. If someone’s favorite team has had a successful year, then gifting him a video of his favorite team’s exploits to watch again and again is a good idea.

Picture Items: Gifts items like calendars, posters and pictures of hockey stars make a great gift for young hockey fans who adulate after their favorite hockey players.

The Debate Of Fighting In The NHL
Fighting. It’s one word that’s sparking a debate among both NHL fans and many other people who aren’t necessarily NHL fans. Some people want it left in the game, others want it banned. If you ask me, I would tell you out right that I want it kept in the game and the rules of penalties and suspensions of fighting left the way they are. There are enough penalties and suspensions about fighting already, and they are just fine the way they are now. If you change the rules on penalties and suspensions about fighting, or take out fighting all together, the game loses its appeal for fans. After all, fights create an atmosphere that makes the game fun. People want to see fights during games because it’s entertaining. Not to mention the fact that it’s been part of NHL history for as long as anybody can remember - probably even started in the early days before the NHL was created, which was around the beginning of the 20th century in the late 1890s and early 1900s. Fighting in the NHL is a tradition and if it’s taken out of the game, then a lot of hockey fans will stop going to games. If you polled fans at games about whether fighting should be kept in the game, I wouldn’t be surprised if at least half of them said that they want it left alone and not be taken out. And why should it? It creates excitement that the fans want. Not to mention, fans almost expect a fight at some point during the season whether it’s once a week, once a week, or even once a month because it’s just part of the game, and it’s fun to see the teams’ goons, as they are called, go at each other and fight. Players know the rules of the game and of fighting and they knowingly play by these rules. Not to mention the fact that if fighting is taken out of the game, you have the problem of how long a player should be out of the game if he fights even once. Do you ban him for the rest of his career? Do you make him serve a suspension worth so many games (10, 15, etc)? If fighting is banned in the NHL, it will create more of a debate and more of a problem that it already is. Plus there would probably be some questionable calls by the referees as well. A referee might call a two-minute roughing penalty on a player if he pushes and shoves someone else. A referee might also just put someone in the penalty box for instigating a fight. On the ice it’s the referee’s call on what penalties are called with the rules as of right now; but if you completely ban fighting in the NHL then you’ll have referees making more calls that are completely bogus than they are right now. Yes, players do get hurt from time to time but sometimes they get what they deserve. I do understand that. I know that there have been a lot of players who have gotten knocked unconscious, etc and there have been serious consequences from the injuries they receive. I know there are fights that erupt from players knocking each other into the boards, the glass, onto the ice, etc and have needed to be carried off on a stretcher. There is always going to be the fear of getting hurt from fights or from unnecessary hits, but most of the time players don’t always have time to think about getting into a fight and possibly getting hurt. Much of the time of time fights happen in a split second. Take the Todd Fedoruk-Derek Boogaard fight toward the beginning of the 2006-2007 season for example. The Minnesota Wild were playing the Anaheim Ducks and at some point during the game, Fedoruk was following Boogaard around the rink, trying to pick a fight with him. Boogaard didn’t want anything to do with Fedoruk but they ended up “going at it” anyway. When all was said and done, Boogaard ended up winning the fight and punching in Fedoruk’s face. Fedoruk had to be taken to the hospital and ended up getting metal plates in his face. Later in the season in late February, the Buffalo Sabres’ Chris Drury got hit in the face by the Ottawa Senators’ Chris Neil. Shortly after the hit, the Sabres’ Drew Stafford went after Neil and both of them received fighting majors, which is an automatic five-minute penalty. Lindy Ruff, the Sabres’ coach, sent out his fourth-line of Andrew Peters, Patrick Kaleta, and Adam Mair after that to face-off against Ottawa’s line of Dany Heatley, Jason Spezza and Mike Comrie. Mair went after Spezza and everything just escalated from there. As one can imagine, everybody got riled up. Players from both teams were fighting each other and even the goalies got into the action. Fighting impacts the game for everyone involved, from the player from who the coach sends out on the ice, to who gets penalties during the game, the player that gets suspended - if applicable, and of course a player that misses games due to injury. Fighting does have its consequences, but it’s something that’s a part of the game. It always has been and always should be, no matter what. The league should leave this subject alone because there are players that want it left in the game, not to mention the coaches and fans who want it left in the game as well. It’s something that fans like to see happen and if taken out, hockey will lose a big part of its tradition and background. Not to mention the fact that momentum, which can play a big part after a fight, would be lost and that the game would probably have no flow to it because players won’t have the ambition to go out and play to win. There are people that think that there should be at least some sort of regulation or punishment for fighting in the NHL and for some of the “cheap shots.” There are a number of regulations in place already in the NHL. For example, if you start a fight, you get an instigator penalty, which is an automatic two-minute penalty. Both players get a five-minute major penalty for fighting, or it could be even longer such as a ten-minute game misconduct penalty or possibly miss the rest of the game. There could also be any combination of these, depending on the severity of the fight. There is also the possibility of a fine of $10,000, which doubles every time after, for fighting in the last five minutes of a game, which the coach has to pay. Not to mention the fact that the player who instigates a fight in the last five minutes of regulation is automatically suspended for the next game. If the league really wanted to take it a step further, and not totally eliminate fighting in the game, maybe they could re-evaluate what the penalties are for fighting. Whether it’s starting a fight, fighting in general, third-man in, game misconducts, etc and perhaps even look into what kind of suspensions they give to players who commit “cheap shots” on other players. Perhaps they should turn to the fans who actually care about the game and actually start listening to them. Fans are important to hockey and the league doesn’t seem to see that at times, especially with the topic of fighting and violence in the game. Towards the end of the season, New York Rangers’ player Ryan Hollweg got hit in the face with New York Islanders’ Chris Snow’s stick and Snow got a 25-game suspension. But when Chris Neil hit Chris Drury, who went straight down to the ice and received a concussion, he didn’t so much as get a penalty or suspension. What people might not realize is that in the official handbook for the NHL, there are a lot of different penalties, game misconducts, suspensions, and a lot of other different categories for fighting. Some of these are fighting before the drop of the puck, being the instigator, instigating in the last five minutes of regulation, match and major penalties, and fines and suspensions for aggressor, not going directly to the penalty box, and for instigator among other things. There are seven pages of rules and regulations that help regulate penalties, etc when a fight does happen. The violence and fighting that has gone on in the NHL recently, such as the incidents described above, is nothing compared to the early years of the NHL. In fact, in the early years, there were many more fights and a lot more violence in the game. Millian, who hosts The Blue Line: Hockey Talk Radio and has covered the topic extensively, told me that the critics of the sport as well as the media are looking at recent events, like the ones I mentioned earlier of the Hollweg and Drury incidents, “and say[ing] that the game is more violent than ever.” But really, if you compare today’s game to the 1960’s and the golden age of the goons, today’s modern hockey is actually tamer by comparison. What people have forgotten about hockey is that it does have a long tradition of violence behind it and that each player in the NHL was, and is, willing to play in that kind of condition. Millian also told me that if roughness, intimidation, violence, and fighting are allowed to be part of the rules “and that players knowingly play by the rules, then it [goes to show that they are] showing sportsmanship and not being mindless, violent goons.” If fighting were to be taken out of the game completely, it would be a very boring game with players not being able to hit each other. Players would just be skating around the rink with no emotion and pretty much no ambition to play because the rules have changed so much. Players would be afraid to hit anybody in fear of other players over-reacting and starting a fight. Fighting is an essential part of the game and it can happen at any time due to the emotional charge it has on players. Whether they’re getting angry about a certain hit or something happening in the game, it can change the momentum for a team. That in turn could mean that a team could come from behind and win the game. Players can get very emotional and angry when something happens to a teammate or something happens in a game. Players take their emotions and anger out on the ice sometimes and fights end up coming about. They know they can hit players on the ice with their body, like a hip check, because hockey is such a contact, as well as collision, sport where players hit each other and tempers flare. It just happens to be that that kind of sport, and is accepted as being the nature of the game whether people like it or not. Another factor of why fighting should stay in the game is that the league has already changed so much in terms of how the game is played. They added the trapezoid behind the goalie net, took away two line passes, expanded the offensive zone, and having goalie equipment being smaller than what it was before the lockout of the 2004-2005 season among other changes. The league is trying to change too much at one time and they need to step back and see the progress that they have already made since the end of the 2003-2004 season. The fans, for the most part, like the game as it stands right now and they don’t want anything changed too dramatically, and so soon. And right now, it’s the case of fighting in the NHL that they don’t want changed. Fighting should be left alone by the league and maybe in a couple years, be brought up to see whether it should have a place in the game. But don’t be surprised if people have the same kind of answer then as they do now - leave it alone and leave it in the game. Fighting, violence, roughness, intimidation - it’s all a part of the game and if that’s taken away, then you just lost the interest of the fans and hockey will become as boring as figure skating but with all the pads and such of hockey. Plus, if it’s completely banned by the league, there will be a bigger mess of how long a player should be out of the game for fighting just once. Players are willing to play by the rules and realize how violent the sport can be, and if they are willing to play under the conditions, why change a darn thing about fighting?

Kings beat Farjestad
Anze Kopitar scored with 46 seconds remaining to give the Los Angeles Kings a 4-3 win over Swedish champions Farjestad BK on Wednesday in the final of an exhibition tournament.

After a scoreless first period, Eero Somervuori and Emil Kaberg scored to give Farjestad BK a 2-0 lead, but Patrick O’Sullivan and Lubomir Visnovsky evened the score in the next five minutes.

Penguins Pushing Fleury To Improve With Signings
Marc Andre Fleury made strides last year in his quest to prove himself as an NHL caliber goalie. Judging how successful he will be based on last year’s performance is pretty hard considering that he faced more shots than he probably should have due to mental lapses by a defense that while much maligned was still better than it’s critics claim. However Fleury is by no means the Penguins goalie of the future. Yes, he made progress last year. But he still has a long road to travel. His potential is undeniable. The question is will be make the journey. In recent years the Penguins have changed net minders almost as often as Imelda Marcos changed her shoes. They have tried several different “shooting stars” between the pipes looking for “the one”. By signing Ty Conklin (G) the Penguins are letting Fleury know that he must continue to make strides this season. Conklin is an unproven talent. He’s been with three teams in his short NHL career: Edmonton, Columbus and Buffalo. Last year he had an unimpressive .892 GAA in five games with Buffalo and a .871 GAA with Columbus in 11 contests. Overall in 76 NHL games Conklin is a little better with a 30-24-7 record, .900 save percentage and a 2.65 GAA. With Thibault heading to the Sabres this season, Conklin will be needed to back up the young goalie the Penguins hope will become the phenom they are touting him as. And with the Penguins also signing Boston University MVP John Curry as well as bringing in Notre Dame product, and 2004 draft pick, Dave Brown who will be looking to make a splash in Wilkes-Barre this season, Fleury will have the hounds on his tail if he fails to continue to improve.

Wayne Gretzky - The Great One
What discussion of the great game of ice hockey does not begin and end with Wayne Gretzky? You may or may not be a fan of the Great One, but you can no easier deny his dominance and the impact he had on the game than you can convince Rosie O’Donnell that subtle is better. Growing up as a huge NBA enthusiast (my tenure as a fan began when I was about 8-10 years old with Julius Erving and ended with the retirement of Sir Charles Barkley), I was no Chicago Bulls fan, but once Michael Jordan entered the scene, you just knew you were seeing something special. And like Gretzky (indeed perhaps the only viable similarity to Gretzky), whether you loved him or hated him, you certainly had to grant the man his place in sports history. Over the years, many have been tempted to compare the likes of Wayne Gretzky’s dominance in the sport of ice hockey to Michael Jordan’s own personal statistical stranglehold on professional basketball. Still others are tempted to compare Tiger Wood’s dominance in professional golf to the statistical marvel of the Great One. Any such comparisons are done in vain. Yes, each of the aforementioned superstars dominated (or is dominating) their respective sport. But no one did it with the sheer inescapable magnitude of Wayne Gretzky over his twenty year career in professional ice hockey. To put Gretzky’s feats in perspective, if Michael Jordan were to match the Great One’s single-season scoring record—statistically speaking—he would have had to average over 70 points per game. Gretzky started playing Junior B hockey at 14 years old, winning a challenge to existing Canadian amateur hockey rules. That first season, he won rookie of the year, totaling 60 points in 28 games. As many well know, over his career in the NHL, Gretzky had more assists (1,963) than second place on the all-time POINTS list (Mark Messier with 1,887). His record of 2,857 points will never be surpassed. All said, Wayne Gretzky holds: 40 regular season records 15 playoff records 6 All-Star records He won 4 Stanley Cups (Oilers), garnered 9 MVP awards, and was the leading scorer in the NHL 10 different seasons. Not only is he the only player to ever tally more than 200 points in a single season, he accomplished the feat four times. He scored over 100 points in a season 13 consecutive times, with a total of 15. He also turned 50 hat tricks. Arguably there has never been a player with such a natural sense of puck flow, ice position, and the ability to create time and space. It was said the Great One had eyes in the back of his head. In one game, he scored on the drop of the face-off puck twice, against the same goalie. His greatest attribute, perhaps, was not exemplified by his grace with a stick and puck but rather his presence without them. No dominant force was ever so humble. Rick Reilly, senior writer for Sports Illustrated, once proclaimed the biggest challenge of interviewing Wayne Gretzky was getting him to say anything about himself. Whether you loved him or hated him, to deny him his place in history is impossible. He was an ambassador for the sport, and reinforced the notion that hockey could be (and is) a game of grace, skill, and honor. __________________________________________ Robert Guthrie is a freelance writer who spends most of his spare time chauffeuring a 15 year-old ice hockey player who can’t yet drive himself.

Drills For Field Hockey Goalkeepers
Keep your Keeper Sharp 2-on-1 Shot Blocking To keep things fresh and interesting during this drill, make sure the shooters employ a variety of shots including but not limited to slapshots, wrist flicks, and pushes. Another great way to keep the goalkeeper on their toes is to allow the players to pass the ball between them a few times before taking a shot, which forces the goalkeeper to pay attention to the action. Dive In! To set up, place six balls in a line slightly off center anywhere from 8 to 15 yards from the top of the circle. Have one player assume the role of the shooter, who stands at the line of balls. The aim of the goalkeeper during this particular drill is to move sideways across the goal to save as many shots as possible. At the start of the drill, the goalkeeper should be standing in their ready position with knees bent, head up and shoulder relaxed next to the left post. To begin the drill, the goalkeeper shuttles sideways across the goal and taps the right post with their stick, the signal for the shooter to commence the drill. The shooter is to fire one of the balls towards the lower left hand corner of the net. As soon as the shot has been made, the goalkeeper is to shuttle sideways towards the left post and dive to make the save. Make sure to dive through the path of the ball in order to block the shot from going in. Continue in this manner until all 6 balls have been shot, then allow your goalkeeper a short rest while the drill is set up again. The second time around the direction is reverse so the shooter will be taking shots at the lower right hand corner. Make sure to emphasize that the goalkeeper keeps their head pointing towards the ball with their eye constantly following it after they’ve touched the post and given the signal. To up their chances of successfully blocking the shot, encourage the goalkeeper to save using both gloves. About The Author Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Blair_McKinney

What NHL Autographed Memorabilia You Can Find and Get
The National Hockey League is home to heroes and warriors aplenty. With each swerve and drive of the puck through the ice, sticks clash, players dash, and tempers fly. With each score, a player is hailed as a savior and hero. With each miss of the goalkeeper, groans and screams can be heard for miles. Such is the appeal of hockey, whether it is watched in its full glory live, or on television, where viewers can alternate between tearing their hair out and jumping out of their seats. Hockey, whether played on the grass or on the ice, has legions of fans and viewers. These same fans and viewers are poised to cheer any player on, whether he is the neighborhood hero or Wayne Gretzky himself. They are likewise interested, sometimes even obsessed with finding NHL autographed memorabilia at low prices. If you are interested in hockey, or if you are new to the game and are planning to collect NHL autographed memorabilia, start inquiring at your local collector’s stores on what NHL autographed memorabilia are available, or what NHL autographed memorabilia you can afford. There are also many online sites where you can buy, auction, or trade NHL autographed memorabilia. Beware of such sites, however: like many other trading sites, there are lurkers and predators aplenty that can promise you wares without sending them to you, or promise to pay you for your NHL autographed memorabilia but do not do so. Here are a few examples of NHL autographed memorabilia that you can avail of online. Although this list is by no means complete, it can give you a good idea of what most websites will offer. Prices will differ depending on the age of the NHL autographed memorabilia, who signed it, and the quality of the signed merchandise. - NHL jerseys are the most commonly traded, sold, and bought items online. Signed and autographed by the players themselves, such jerseys become gems to collectors. If you are able to avail yourself of such a jersey, do not simply stash it away or keep it in a box. Frame it, not only to display the signature, but to preserve the autograph and jersey as well. - NHL hats and caps are also attractive, as they can be used at games to proudly display the autograph of a fan’s favorite player. If you are able to buy autographed hats and caps, do not wear them too often unless you are in an air-conditioned stadium. Acidity and moisture can wear away cap quality and can damage the ink used to sign the autograph. Keep such hats and caps in a glass display box, along with some dehydrating salts, to protect them from humidity. - Many other autographed NHL memorabilia can come in the forms of photographs, posters, and books. Take care of such memorabilia by either storing them in glass cases, or covering them with protective plastic. Keep any paper away from heat, acidity, and humidity, as these can easily destroy them. Photographs should also be kept away from direct sunlight, as these can cause photographs and the inks used to sign the autograph to fade. - Hockey pucks and sticks are also available online, and, once signed by hockey players, can become so precious, their owners will refuse to use them to play any amateur game. Such autographed memorabilia should also be kept in glass cases, and should be free form moisture, since humidity can damage puck and stick materials. - Made of stronger material, signed NHL helmets can withstand humidity, but the ink used to sign the helmet can melt away or fade. Store autographed NHL helmets in glass cases or cardboard boxes, and keep them away from acids or water. ——————————————————————- Article Source: http://EzineArticles.com/?expert=Joseph_Baylon
