Hockey Music: Stompin Tom Connors

Every week I like to give up a little Hockey Chump blog space to a worthwhile musician or song that has to do with hockey. This week’s space is going out to good ol’ Stompin’ Tom Connors.

Most Americans are probably saying to themselves, “Who the hockey puck is Stompin’ Tom Connors?”

Canadians, though, I’m sure are nodding their heads in agreement.

Connors happens to be one of Canada’s most popular and well-known folk singers. He’s had a wide range of hits throughout his career and I could start listing them but then this would turn in to a blog about music and not about hockey. So, let’s get down to the connection between the sport and his music.

There’s a song aptly named the “Hockey Song” that probably nine Canadians out of 10 know all the lyrics to, though, most people in the world have never heard it. Connors wrote it in 1973, but it didn’t get popular until the 90’s when the Senators started playing it at their games. In 2008, Connors re-released the song as the “updated” version. It’s poetic. Inspiring. More importantly, it’s about hockey.

Below is a slightly amusing, amateur video put together to his song.



It’s my new song of the moment and this blog’s song of the week.

Sing. Dance. Play hockey!

Funny Hockey Photo

Funny hockey photo from FailLOL.com

Anyone that knows anything about hockey, it’s that the sport itself is probably the least political amongst any of the majors today, and it’s been that way since the end of the Cold War.

Think about it.

If you have a problem with someone out there on the rink, you either hit them, beat them up, or one of your teammates does it for you. There’s no real reason for politics on the rink, as opposed to other sports (think soccer riots between rival countries, football’s complete lack of appeal everywhere but here in America, baseball and basketball having only one Canadian team each, and so on and so on). No, when it comes to hockey, problems get solved immediately, political lines are non-existent, and the sport itself appeals to a global audience.

All of these reasons are what make hockey so great and this photo such an EPIC FAILURE, lol. Not only did this person go out of their way to try and make a political point in a politically neutral environment, but they went out of their way to try and ruin a photo-op. It’s like, really? You’re going to do politics at a hockey game?

A cheap move like this deserves to get whistled two minutes for douchebaggery.

Hockey Quote: Don Cherry

Great hockey quote from the ever popular(ly infamous, notorious, etc.) Don Cherry, who has long been on a mission to destroy every man’s desire to ever wear a patterned suit.

Back in the day, Don Cherry was the coach for the Boston Bruins. In fact, he was part of  the team responsible for trading famed Bruin Phil Esposito to the New York Rangers.

Well, on the day that the great Espo went from Quincy Market to Broadway, he was called in to Cherry’s office to be personally informed of the news. After warming Espo up, Cherry finally let him know that was going to another team. Esposito replied:

“Okay, but if you say the New York Rangers, I am going to jump out that window.”

Cherry, ever the one with words, calmly leaned back in his chair. He looked over at his assistant and said, “Bobby, open up the window.”

:-)

Hockey Exercise: Legs

When it comes to playing the game of hockey, there’s no doubt that a player’s legs are the true “money-makers”. That’s because, during an average shift, a player is on one leg around 80% of the time. Think about it – how often do you get the chance to actually coast up and down the rink?

While skating, you get the majority of your power from one leg and then the other. The lead leg is supporting all of your weight, while the trail leg extends outward pushing you forward. If that lead leg cannot hold your body weight for an extended amount of time, your stride will become shorter and you will be a slower skater.

What’s more, when skating forward, sometimes a power turn is necessary to escape a defender. During a power turn, your inside lead leg could be exposed to 500 pounds of pressure. If your leg is not strong enough to withstand that amount of pressure, it will collapse, causing you to fall and go sliding into the boards

To help build up individual leg strength, you can do a simple workout at home. All it involves is a stair case, whether it is going up to your second floor, or down to your basement. Line up next to the stair case at a 45-degree angle so that either your left side or right side is facing the stairs. Now, stand on one leg and with your arms behind you, squat down on your one leg, and hop on to the first step. Maintain your balance and try to avoid putting down the other foot. When settled, repeat this action up to the next step. Repeat this step a third time and then prepare to go back down the stairs, reversing the action. Once you’ve reached the base, switch legs and repeat.

Each time you perform this exercise, try and add another step or two to your regiment (make sure not to push yourself too early as this can be a potentially dangerous exercise). Once you begin to excel at this exercise, try and increase the speed at which you go through the reps. Trust me, concentrated exercises like this, which are so simple to do, do in fact translate on the rink and you’ll be surprised at the sudden increase in explosiveness that you gain in your legs.

Remember to be careful with this one and take your time at first. Let your body learn the exercise before you begin pushing yourself.

Good luck!

Hockey Trivia and Hockey TV Schedule

In lieu of the start of the NCAA hockey tournament, this week’s hockey tid-bit has to do with this oft-forgotten about collegiate tournament (if they could stretch the season out to April and avoid competing against college basketball’s March Madness, I guarantee you they’d get at least a little bit more coverage – but alas, that’s just a hockey chump’s humble opinion).

So let’s get down to brass tacks. Who do you think holds the record for the most appearances in the NCAA hockey championship game? Most people, especially in the northeast, would say Boston University. Others, perhaps with a bit more background knowledge of the sport, might say the University of Michigan.

Believe it or not, it’s neither. The school that holds this prestigious record is actually the University of North Dakota. They’ve made the big “skate” a  total of 12 times so far in their history, recording 7 wins and 5 losses. The rest of the list shakes out like this:

•    North Dakota - 12 (7 wins and 5 losses)
•    Michigan - 11 (9 wins and 2 losses)
•    Minnesota - 11 (5 wins and 6 losses)
•    Denver - 10 (7 wins and 3 losses)
•    Boston University - 9 (4 wins and 5 losses)

This year’s tournament features North Dakota, Michigan and Denver in it, surprisingly with Minnesota and Boston University missing out on an invite. There’s no doubt that both schools will get their programs back up to snuff; still, it’s a bit surprising to see that after so many years of domination that they fell out of competition.

Most games can be seen on either ESPN, ESPN2 and ESPN-U. Check out the site for the Frozen Four for exact date and times.

Speaking of hockey on TV, here’s a listing of upcoming NHL games that will be broadcast nationally. All times are EST. Enjoy!

Versus:
Mon: Buffalo Sabres at Boston Bruins, 7:00
Tue: Chicago Blackhawks at St. Louis Blues, 8:00
Wed: Tampa Bay Lightning at Pittsburgh Penguins, 7:30 -- in TB and PIT only
Wed: Chicago Blackhawks at Minnesota Wild, 8:00
Thur: Atlanta Thrashers at Washington Capitals, 7:00 -- blacked out in local markets

(FYI - NBC is taking a break this week to host some golf outing – boooooo!)

Great Hockey Goal: Martin St. Louis _ Hockey News: Fan Attacks Coach

This week’s goal of the week goes to Martin St. Louis of the Tampa Bay Lighting who almost-too-easily breaks through the Carolina Hurricanes’ defense to score a nifty overtime goal.

G’head and chalk this one up on St. Louis’ already long list of highlight-reel goals. Nice job man!



In other news, across the pond in Stockholm, Sweden, the fans there take overtime a losses a bit more, how do you say, seriously . . .

Check out this clip below. It comes from a game between rivals AIK and Sodertalje. Yannick Lehoux of Sodertalje scores the game-winning goal and then proceeds to mock the crowd by telling them to “hush”. One fan, who looks a little inhebriated, to say the least, gets so angry that he actually hops the glass and attacks Sodertalje’s coaching staff (albeit, calling a slight push an “attack” in the hockey world might be a bit overboard). Anyway, you be the judge. And be sure to watch beyond his attacking the coaching staff for a WWE slam by one of the 4 bald-headed, 300-pound security guards (quadruplets???)

Hockey News: Rangers, Islanders among 11 teams changing uniforms for the 2010-11 season

Came across an interesting blogumn Puck Daddy today that highlights a report from Icethetics, a site devoted to the esthetic pleasures of all things hockey (yes, such a site exists – talk about finding your niche market), that says that Reebok is rumored to be getting ready to produce new jerseys for 11 teams next season. Some will be new home jerseys; others will only be new away sweaters; and others might be a new third jersey.

An example is the New York Rangers who, clearly channeling the local fashion district (or perhaps Vogue-tern Sean Avery), got the best design minds together and came up with the novel concept of changing “Rangers” on the jersey to “New York”.

Next year's Rangers' jersey?

Other teams that are rumored to be changing their jerseys include: Anaheim Ducks, Buffalo Sabres, Calgary Flames, Columbus Blue Jackets, Dallas Stars, Nashville Predators, New York Islanders, Philadelphia Flyers, Pittsburgh Penguins and Toronto Maple Leafs.

A few quick highlights from the report include:

Sabres will be doing away with the slug-like Sabre logo.

So long, slugs!

Islanders likely to convert their retro thirds to their new home sweater, though rumor has it that only the road jersey will be changing (miscommunication out on the Islander – who would’ve thunk?)

The retro third jersey has proven popular in the Islanders' fan base.

Penguins are scrapping their baby blues in favor of a darker (dare I say, more maculating) blue.

I saw Blue! It was . . . well, never really all that glorious.

Hockey Music: Rob Zombie

Every Wednesday I  like to throw a shout-out to the musicians out there who support hockey. You’d be surprised by the amount of them that are out there. This week, we’re doing a Hockey Chump salute to family-friendly musician, Rob Zombie.

Zombie had this to say about his favorite hockey team, the LA Kings:

“I am like the Jack Nicholson of the Kings - every single game. If there was a game tonight I wouldn't be here. I used to play hockey. That was my original thing. My first thing, I wanted to play professional hockey.”

Not sure how the dreadlocks would’ve worked out there on the ice, but I think his music career has worked out pretty well. Here’s one of his happier songs, “Living Dead Girl.”



Sing. Dance. Play hockey!

Hockey News: NHL Board of Governors Approves Headshot Penalty

Two blogs in one day - what? Well, this is definitely worth posting - the NHL Board of Governors has (finally) approved a head shot rule.

The Board of Governors approved a penalty that would ban hits to the head (see David Booth and Marc Savard) against an unsuspecting player. The finer details are being worked out, but if all goes according to plan, this should be implemented before season's end.


David Booth getting blindly rocked by Mike Richards . . .



Marc Savard never saw Matt Cooke coming . . .




It's about time -- it's unfortunate for guys like Booth and Savard who've already been injured by this sort of play, but I suppose it's better late than never. Start weeding out the guys who make a job of this and may only the skilled ones remain.

Funny Hockey Photo

This photo just goes to prove that hockey fans are a more intelligent breed.

Football fans get dressed up for a game like its Halloween, what with the body paint, wigs, costumes and what have you. Soccer fans just riot and beat each other up. Baseball and basketball fans - they just, well, they just sit there wearing the home team's hat and jersey.

Hockey fans, on the other hand, come up with more *ahem* creative way to express themselves during a game:

Hockey Quote: Teemu Selanne

This week’s quote of the week goes to the newest member of the 600-goal club, Teemu Selanne, who scored the milestone marker against Craig Anderson and the Colorado Avalanche.



Selanne’s had an extensive, remarkable career, that which is most likely to end after this season with the Ducks. He’s had several memorable quotes all throughout his career and though this is one of the shorter ones, I think it encapsulates the sport rather well.

“You keep shooting. You hope it goes in, and you smile.”

There’s no doubt that with Selanne’s shot, he’s had plenty of reasons to smile over the years. Interestingly enough, his latest milestone has sparked a conversation comparing him to the other Finn great, Jari Kurri, especially given that Selanne has 11 games left and needs only two goals to pass Kurri for most tallies by a Finn. It’s a worthwhile discussion . . . if based on statistics only. The biggest difference? Kurri’s five Stanley Cups to Selanne’s one.

Based on that alone, Kurri’s #1 and Selanne’s a solid #2. But today, it’s about Selanne. So congrats to him . . . and keep on smiling.

Hockey Workout: Dragon Flags

If you play hockey, it’s very important to build up your core strength. This helps you to maintain your balance on your skates, gives you greater power in your shot, and will also help to increase your endurance during the game.

To strengthen your core, you want to focus on your abdominal muscles. A good workout for this area of your body is called “Dragon Flags.”

Begin by lying down on a bench with your arms above your head holding onto the bench.

 

Dragon Flags

Now bring your entire lower body up towards the ceiling until only your upper back and shoulders are touching the bench. Hold the position for one second and then reverse the order, bringing your entire lower body back down towards the bench.

If you’re just starting out with Dragon Flags, start out by crunching your knees first and then extending your legs toward the ceiling. As you develop your core, you will then be able to skip this step and instead do the exercise in one, fluid motion.

Important Note:

The most important thing to remember when doing this move is to keep your body stable. Having control over your core helps to strengthen it. If you are wobbly or moving all around, you are not giving the core the focused exercised need to strengthen it. Take your time and make sure you teach your body this new motion first before you try and go thru the reps quickly.

Good luck!

Hockey Trivia and Hockey TV Schedule

Did you know that the the H on the Montreal Canadiens’ sweater stands for "Hockey", not "habitant", as is commonly mistaken?

Montreal is technically the “Club de Hockey Canadien”, and were once the "Club Athletique Canadien". . . hence the "A" that once sat in place of the modern "H".

“Habitant” is a French nickname for the club, but is not the reason for the letter; also “Habs” is a slang used for the club that refers to their “habit” of winning Stanley Cups.

The Canadiens made the switch back in the 1917-18 season – since then, they’ve won 23 Stanley Cups (they won only one with the “A” in their logo) – who knew winning cups was as easy as switching a letter in a logo?

So March Madness is fully underway now, which makes it even more difficult to find hockey on TV. To make it easier on you, the ever faithful hockey fan, here’s a quick breakdown of who’s playing who, when they’re playing, and on what channels.

These are national games and all times are EST.

NBC:
March 22 at 12:30
New York Rangers at Boston Bruins

Versus:
March 22 at 7:00
Pittsburgh Penguins at Detroit Red Wings

March 23at 7:00
San Jose Sharks at Minnesota Wild

Enjoy!

Great Hockey Goal of the Week: Patrick Eaves

Better late than never . . . it’s hockey goal of the week time!

This one comes from Patrick Eaves . . . yes, that Patrick Eaves of the Detroit Red Wings against Ryan Miller and the Buffalo Sabres.

The goal is pretty sick. Miller played it right, there’s just not much you can do with a last-minute chip like that.

Tyler Myers – welcome to the NHL.



Enjoy!

Hockey News: 3D Hockey

Some local Hockey Chump news that may come to have an impact on the league a little further down the road:

The New York Times had an article today about Cablevision announcing today that next Wednesday’s Rangers v. Islanders game will be broadcast in 3-D.

Now, before you get ready to put out an extra plate setting for Sean Avery, John Tavares and company, you should know that it’s only being broadcast in 3-D at the Theater at Madison Square Garden.

As per the article, this is the first NHL game broadcast in 3-D and it’s probably an experiment to see how well the game translates to the more engaging third dimension, especially with the looming launch of in-house 3-D televisions.

Will this attract the more casual hockey fan who otherwise finds themselves disengaged from the game because of their difficulty following the puck and play? Probably not.

Is it pretty cool, though? Damn straight.

Kudos to the NHL and Cablevision for trying to generate some positive new about the sport rather than continuing to allow items about head shots and violence in the sport continue to dominate the headlines.

Hockey Music: Dropick Murphys

Since today's a great day where EVERYONE is Irish, I figure you can't go wrong with playing a little Dropkick Murphy's who performed at this year's Winter Classic in Boston.

Here's a video from the performance - enjoy!



Sing. Dance. Play hockey!

Hockey Quote: Patrick Roy and Jeremy Roenick

In the game of hockey, it’s all about talking out on the rink. The more a team talks, the more they win.

But sometimes hockey players, they can be a bit silly with some of the things they say. So each week, we devote a post to some of the more amusing lines to come from the game.

Enjoy!

In the 1996 Western Conference semi-finals between the Colorado Avalanche and the Chicago Blackhawks, Jeremy Roenick was stopped by Patrick Roy on a break-away during OT in game 4, while apparently being tackled by an Avalanche player. The referees did not call for a penalty shot on the play and the Avalanche won in triple overtime on Joe Sakic's game winning goal.




Earlier in game 3, Roenick scored on an unchallenged breakaway to tie the score at 3 and send the game to overtime; the Blackhawks ended up winning the game.

After game 4, Roenick told the media,

"It should have been a penalty shot, there's no doubt about it. I like Patrick's quote that he would've stopped me. I'd just want to know where he was in Game 3, probably getting his jock out of the rafters in the United Center maybe."

Roy retorted with his now-famous line:

“I can’t really hear what Jeremy says because I’ve got my two Stanley Cup rings plugging my ears.”

Hockey News: Ovechkin Suspended (AGAIN)!!!

Breaking from our normal schedule to announce that Washington Capitals star Alexander Ovechkin has been suspended for two games because of his absurd hit yesterday on Chicago Blackhawk’s d-man Brian Campbell.

I think he deserves it, although this raises questions about the NHL's thinking when they're willing to suspend the league's MVP but won't suspend a guy like Matt Cooke who shouldn't even be on the ice. But that was last week and this is now and anyone who has ever played hockey before (with contact) knows that when you hit someone at the goal line, you are trying to drive them in to the boards. Granted, Campbell was at an awkward position when turning which made the hit that much more dramatic, but Ovechkin knew what he was doing from the hash marks in. 

He’s had a history of lining people up like this and sometimes they’re solid, clean hits (take the Jagr shot during the Olympics). . .



and other times they’re not.



This time, it wasn’t and for that he deserves to be disciplined.

Hockey Exercise: Skater Stride

This one's called the "Skater Stride" and comes from Men's Fitness.

Loop an elastic band above your knees and spread your legs so that you feel tension on the band. Step as far as you can to one side, and then bring the other leg in closer to the lead leg (but don't lose tension on the band). That's one rep. Perform two sets of 12 - 15 reps on both legs.

Believe you me, you'll feel the burn in this one.

Good luck!

Hockey Trivia and Hockey TV Schedule

Did you know that the Calgary Flames had a chance to draft award-winning, Stanley Cup-winning, Olympic Gold-Medal Winning and all-around great goaltender Martin Brodeur but absolutely BLEW IT big time by trading with the New Jersey Devils for an earlier pick.

Who'd they choose with their earlier pick? Trevor Kidd.

Yes, that Trevor Kidd. (Roll of the eyes.)

New Jersey, ever the patient team, waited for their turn and then drafted Marty. The rest, I guess, is history as we've come to know it.

Way to go Flames, lol. 

On a side note, hockey's a great game to play, hard game to find on TV. This is especially true with the college basketball tourney going on right now. To help you get your hockey fix for the week, here's a national listing of who's playing on which channel and at what time (EST):

NBC:
March 14 at 12:30
Washington Capitals at Chicago Blackhawks

Versus:
March 15 at 7:00
Boston Bruins at (Trevor Kidd-less) New Jersey Devils

March 16 at 7:00
Montreal Canadians at New York Rangers

Great Hockey Goal of the Week: P.K. Subban

It's my favorite time of the week. Friday means weekend, friends and . . . HOCKEY GOAL OF THE WEEK!

This one comes from the AHL from a promising young forward named P.K. Subban of the Hamilton Bulldogs who's coming to make a name for himself between this goal here and the one he scored during the AHL skills competition.

Well, those two amongst a slew of others (youtube his  name and he's quick to impress).



Not sure if it's the 3rd or 7th deke that impressed me the most. Or the stop-on-the-dime-now-I'm-all-up-in-your-grill pose afterwards, but dammit, I like this kid.

Enjoy!

Hockey News: Funny Chris Chelios Lines

Each week I like to post an article to the site that is entertaining, relevant and, of course, has to do with hockey.

During my latest round of research, I came across this little gem from the Edmonton Journal. The article briefly talks about the Atlanta Thrasher's recent signing of 48-year-old Chris Chelios who has apparently found the fountain of youth and isn't telling anyone else where it's located.

What it really gets in to though, which I didn't know about and wanted to make sure to share here, is an online joke that has recently taken off about the tireless Chelios himself. The set up for the joke is "Chris Chelios is so old . . . " (and you take it from there).

Author David Staples did a great job of collecting some of the more popular one-liners which are really actually kind of clever and funny. Here are a few of my faves:

*Chris Chelios is so old .....the Zamboni at his childhood rink was steam powered.

*Chris Chelios is so old ...... I can remember as a little kid calling him "Chris Cheerios". I'm 27. Now I feel old

*Chris Chelios is so old ....... a "Chris Chelios Hat Trick" involves eating solid food, making it to the bathroom in time, and remembering your name.

Apparently these jokes are scattered all across the Web, so make sure to check out the Journal's list for the best collection of these one liners.

Hockey Music: Propagandhi

It's Wednesday, which means it's time to support another band or musician out there who supports hockey. This week's group is a Canadian punk band called Propagandhi.

They did a great interview with Silver Sevens that was posted on Yahoo's Puckdaddy. In it, lead singer Chris Hannah (vocals/guitar) had this to say about playing hockey with the Winnipeg Jets when he was younger:

When I was 13 years old, I went to a practice with the Jets, me and some other kids. I can't remember who the back-up goalie was, but we were doing these come out of the corner, take the puck at the top of the circle and take a shot on an NHL goalie. He was just kicking away everything, easily, and I... I [expletive] slipped one by him! He went, "[Expletive!]" Then, I peed myself a little bit and skated to the bench, and just sat on the bench shaking. 

I was so excited and he was mad. I also went on two 2-on-1s with Paul MacLean and scored both times.

A story like that, how could you not be a fan? Especially with music like this . . .



The name of the song is "Dear Coach's Corner" about, what else? Hockey! Enjoy.

Sing. Dance. Play Hockey.

Hockey Quote: Pavel Bure and Radek Dvorak

So each week we go through the Web and dig up some of the best hockey quotes around. This week, to start things off right, we've got two quotes from two different players. Why? Well, we kind of feel like this shows the difference between an elite NHL player and a mediocre one. Enjoy!


"When I look at the net I don't see a goalie.” - Pavel Bure

"When I look at the net I see 2 or 3 goalies.” - Radek Dvorak.

Let's give Dvorak some credit . . . at least he's got a sense of humor :-)

Funny Hockey Photo

If you've ever been to a hockey game where they're giving out free beer, you'd have the same reaction, too.

 

Kudos to the ref for trying to be the first on line to get his Molson Ice on. We here at 5 Hole Hockey salute you!

Hockey Workout: Wood Chopper

Hockey Workout of the Week:

This one's called "The Wood Chopper."

All you need is a dumbbell.

Simply hold the with your hands and raise the ball on your shoudler of choice.

Bring it below and across your torso finding it next to your opposite hip.

Start off by doing 10-per-set. Finish the set and change sides to do the same exercise.

Essentially, this is a great core workout and helps increase your shot power.

More next week!

Hockey Trivia and Hockey TV Schedule

Did you know that the first NHL goalie to wear a mask was actually Clint Benedict?

He wore this makeshift leather mask when he returned to the net from a bad facial injury, towards the end of the 1929-30 season.

On a different note, hockey’s hard enough to find on the TV – to help you get your fix for the week, here’s a national listing of who’s playing on which channel at what time (EST).

NBC
March 7 at 12:30
Detroit Red Wings at Chicago Blackhawks

Versus
March 8 at 7:00
Dallas Stars at Washington Capitals

March 9 at 7:30
NY Islanders at Philadelphia Flyers

Great Hockey Goal of the Week: Chris Drury

Okay, so the obvious choice would've been Sidney Crosby's gold medal clinching overtime goal for the U.S. but we felt like that's kind of the obvious choice. Zach Parise's game tying goal just a few minutes earlier is also a nice choice, but again, a fairly obvious one.

We were going between the two, weighing our allegiance to the U.S. against the overall awesomeness of Crosby's goal when last night Captain America himself, Chris Drury, pulled this amazing goal off and made our choice for goal of the week an easy one. Enjoy!

Hockey News: 2010 NHL Trade Deadline - Winners and Losers

The deadline itself was a bit of a disappointment since no real blockbuster trades went down, but there were enough roster shakeups to keep my interest throughout the day.

Hockey Chump’s winner? The Washington Capitals. Already a beast in the East, they just become a monster in the NHL by acquiring Eric Belanger, Scott Walker, Milan Jurcina and Joe Corvo who account for size, muscle and veteran leadership, all key elements to making a legitimate run to the Stanley Cup.

Hockey Chump’s loser? The Philadelphia Flyers. You’re only legitimate goaltender has season-ending surgery and you make no moves? I don’t know what the front office was thinking but there’s no way this team is going anywhere any time soon with Boucher and Leighton as their goaltending duo.


Check out the rest of the assessment here.

Hockey Music: Bare Naked Ladies

Every Wednesday, we support a musician or group who also supports hockey. This week, we're showcasing the Bare Naked Ladies as they perform the TSN Hockey Theme.
