Oxbow6 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 The Arizona Coyotes are bidding on the 2018 World Junior Championships and a Frozen Four. Kevin Allen @ByKevinAllen · 3h 3 hours ago Just told the Arizona Coyotes are bidding for the 2018 WJC and are planning to bid for a future Frozen Four. Detroit is also wanting to host the 2018 World Junior Championships and Buffalo want to host again.http://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/hockey/juniors/2015/02/05/world-junior-championships-2018-nhl-detroit-buffalo-pittsburgh-florida/22920031/ Get the World Junior Championships back at the Ralph and the second arena could be Scheels Arena. A F4 @ Jobing Arena would be great. Nice rink in nice area of PHX.....and golf! Quote

Ray77 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 A couple stories I though worth sharing. NHL fines P.K. Subban $2K Evander Kane absence tied to suit Quote
darell1976 Posted February 6, 2015 Posted February 6, 2015 A couple stories I though worth sharing. NHL fines P.K. Subban $2K Evander Kane absence tied to suit Jets should deal Kane, even though he is a good player, his distraction off the ice could hurt the team in the long run. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 7, 2015 Posted February 7, 2015 At the Black Sheep in St. Paul before heading to the X. Gonna be a great atmosphere w 2 teams battling to get into playoff contention. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Wild 1-0 end of 1st. SOG 17-4 Wild. Vodkamov standing on his head already. Quote
Oxbow6 Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Good game...1-0 as Wild win 5th straight. Quote
sioux rube Posted February 8, 2015 Posted February 8, 2015 Good game...1-0 as Wild win 5th straight. Biggest crowd of the year at 19,200 plus. Dubnyk with shutout number 4 as a Wild in 9 games. Unreal. Quote
MafiaMan Posted February 8, 2015 Author Posted February 8, 2015 Get the NHL out of Miami already. Quote
Ray77 Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 ESPN's 30 for 30 episode this Sunday is "Of Miracles and Men." The preview asks the question "what if...the miracle we remember is the game they want to forget." I bet it'll be interesting. Did you happen to watch this? I DVR'd it and late last night got about halfway through but it was waaay too late and it was time to go to bed. I'll be watching later this week. Curious to hear your thoughts if you saw it. Quote
sioux rube Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Fetisov went through a lot of crap to be the first to be granted to leave the Soviet Army and basically become a free man and play in the NHL. Could of defected and didn't earlier. Opened the door for everyone else by waiting. Have a lot of respect for the guy. And Tarasov made Soviet hockey. What a great coach and a guy with a huge heart. Unorthodox training methods but they worked. Great documentary. Quote

Unorthodox training methods but they worked. Great documentary. I thought the doc. was incredible. It was amazing to see the Soviet's redefine a style of hockey. Off the ice their workouts were extreme, very impressive, probably way ahead of its time. It's funny though, with that advantage they didn't play a gritty game and the Russians still have a tendency to not, which has resulted in big losses imo throughout international play. Still crazy to see USA beat the Russians in that game. Hell, the Russians probably could have won 19 of 20 if they played a 20 game series. Quote

Per Herb Brooks: Great moments... are born from great opportunity. And that's what you have here, tonight, boys. That's what you've earned here tonight. One game. If we played 'em ten times, they might win nine. But not this game. Not tonight. Tonight, we skate with them. Tonight, we stay with them. And we shut them down because we can! Tonight, WE are the greatest hockey team in the world. You were born to be hockey players. Every one of you. And you were meant to be here tonight. This is your time. Their time is done. It's over. I'm sick and tired of hearing about what a great hockey team the Soviets have. Screw 'em. This is your time. Now go out there and take it. So that would make it 18 of 20 in a 20 game series! Quote

Shawn-O Posted February 9, 2015 Posted February 9, 2015 Get the NHL out of Miami already. Sprint Center in KC could use a tenant and would be good to go. EDIT: Owner needed. Quote

MafiaMan Posted February 10, 2015 Author Posted February 10, 2015 Did you happen to watch this? I DVR'd it and late last night got about halfway through but it was waaay too late and it was time to go to bed. I'll be watching later this week. Curious to hear your thoughts if you saw it.DVR'd it...watching it tonight or tomorrow night. Two things I have heard and am looking to verify: #1) Fetisov has not much good to say about Tikhonov #2) Sergei Fedorov was looked upon as a traitor for leaving the UCKA (pronounced sess-ka) hockey team and defecting. The acronym stands for Central Sports Club Army. Quote
sioux rube Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 6 in a row for the Wild. Win tomorrow night and it will be franchise win number 500. Quote
SiouxScore Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 6 in a row for the Wild. Win tomorrow night and it will be franchise win number 500. Tomorrow night is a big one and should be good at Winnipeg. Probably will be without Zucker and Carter since both got hurt early tonight and didn't return. Quote
sioux rube Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 Tomorrow night is a big one and should be good at Winnipeg. Probably will be without Zucker and Carter since both got hurt early tonight and didn't return. Both are out according to Russo. Kuemper more than likely in the net. Quote

The preview asks the question "what if...the miracle we remember is the game they want to forget." I bet it'll be interesting. I just watched it today (DVR) and thought it was great. I loved when they asked the one player of he saw the movie Miracle and he said why, we didn't win. Lots of red tape (no pun intended) just to get out of the Soviet Union and play in the NHL. Quote
cberkas Posted February 10, 2015 Posted February 10, 2015 If you haven't see or DVR'd ESPN 30 for 30: Of Miracles and Men. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fmdb3PkGLd0 I remember MafiaMan saying he wish he saw Lokomotiv, not sure if he's seen it yet. http://sportsworld.nbcsports.com/lokomotiv/ Quote
