Random Hockey Book of the Week – Wk1
October 28, 2011
Week 1: Sports Illustrated The Hockey Book Trying out a new feature (and busting out some seriously mediocre Photoshopping)… picking a random interesting-looking hockey book every Friday. Some of them will be ones I’ve read, but most will be ones I hope to read someday, whenever the time-demons decide to give me some of my …
NHL Realignment Project – Week 22
October 23, 2011
Nationalism Week twenty-two in the NHL Realignment Project has a “country” flavor to it. The main thing we’re doing differently this week is how we arrived at our honorific division names. The NHL is mostly made up of North American players and European, right? So I took the two (present-day) countries from each continent that …

Pod Casting – There’s No Place Like Home (and Away) This week we go to pods for the NHL Realignment Project. The addition of the Seattle Shamrocks and the Quebec Nordiques gets our league’s team count up to (our favorite very divisible number,) 32. In an effort to not only divide the teams up the …

Champions Leage (Semi) Final So this is the final iteration of the idea started three weeks ago, that of the “Champions League”. We started with a league that consisted of only teams that had won the Cup, and then we expanded it to include teams that had made it to the Stanley Cup finals, but …

Champions League Plus Expanding on the idea that started two week ago, this week we’re expanding by six teams (à la 1967). The six teams we’ve allowed into our “Champions League” are the teams that have be able to make it to the Stanley Cup Finals, but haven’t won. They’ve earned their stripes, and now …

Champions League (Version 2) As some of you geniuses may have figured out by the title of last week’s post, we are doing a variation this week instead of a full-on new idea. Things are super-busy at work right now, and this is the way we’re gonna go. Gotta pay the bills… what can you …
