| I have been compiling a collection of former players
and their post-hockey careers. I currently have well over
300 former players and their post-NHL occupations.
You can see the list at http://www.lcshockey.com/history |

Exactly what players did Smith get...he got junk. How many midgets have hockey careers into their
thirties? Fleury is basically done...on the downside with an anchor. |
| Again karnak, you going to be the president of the czechs back up
goalies fan club for that heroic effort he did passing the water bottles
to the players that actuaslly made it over the boards ? You want to end
this whole debaucle, name me the players, its a simple task seeing as you
are so convinced that they exist, yet despite me asking, you never say who
they are but are convinced that they exist. European leagues, like the I,
the C and the A are developmental leagues where tommorows NHL stars are
currently playing, as well as a lot of people who have reached the
pinnacle of their hockey careers, as well as a few players from the NHL
who are well past thier prime. Does this make them miockey mouse ?
Perhaps this is a little harsh, burt saying that they are a distant,
distant second rate league ( w.r.t the NHL) is absolutely true. You want
to argue that the swedish elite league is better than the A or the I, go
ahead. |

Its unfair to say theres a decline in Canadian hockey players --
Lemieux, Messier and Gretzky are rare players, who emerged at
the same time - you cant expect one to arrive every year.
There are cycles of development in hockey. Currently there are a lot of
promising young Canadian players in the CHL and NHL, who simply need time to
develop into good and great players. But we must not rush their development
just because of expansion. |
| On another point. I did Midget C playoffs yesterday. I knew I was in trouble
when I found out I was doing the bronze medal game. Speaking of absolutely
no motivation to play in the last game of 3/4s of these kids careers. Had 2
fights and had to toss a coach. This coach never seems to last through the
games when I ref. Maybe its because hes loud and thinks that if his team
s, its the refs fault. Oh well, after the game during the medal
presentations, the winning teams coach decided to tell the losing teams fans
through the P.A. how well the game was officiated. Loudest boos of the game.
Another great memory of house league hockey. |
