The Flames trade Dion Phaneuf the young star/former star defender to the Toronto Maple Leafs. I thought he would have gone to the LA Kings. Seems what I said on The Jim Rome show over a year ago about Dion has helped in him being a "Mr Hollywood" type lately and very sadly coming true. Listen now! I believe this is a win situation for both teams!
Going to the Toronto Maple Leafs from the Calgary Flames go defenceman Dion Phaneuf and Keith Aulie and winger Fredrik Sjostrom. To the Calgary Flames come defenceman Ian White and forwards Matt Stajan, Niklas Hagman and Jamal Mayers. Scotty my Calgary mate a huge Flames fan likes the trade.

It has become common knowledge recently in Calgary that Dion is a "Mr Hollywood" type very sadly as Dion had been one of my favourite players in the NHL until recently. 2 years ago I thought Dion would have been on the Canadian Olympic Hockey team barring injury for sure for next months Winter Olympics. He is not. I think it is a win situation for both teams. Dion now the main defenceman at the Leafs I believe will again play many minutes each game and great aggressive hockey. I look forward to watching him play in Toronto hoping that he can live up to his great form of 2 years ago. I believe this trade has dented his ego.

Arthur's thoughts on the Flames trades!
"I am happy the Flames decided to make some moves now and not wait til to close to the deadline. I am sad to see Dion leave town but we got some good players back. They didn't really show much in their first game but I think the next couple months will help them turn it around.

I am happy to see Jokinen go, he has under achieved big time. He just didn't seem to fit in any where. I really think the Flames will make the playoffs, but where they will go is up in the air. I hope they can maybe bring in another high end player, but that is a pretty big wish. I know Brent Sutter is a good coach and I hope things work out." Arthur.

From Wed Dec 20, 09. The 2010 Canadian Mens Winter Olympic Games 23 man team is named! Below is in alphabetical order. Where the player is from in Canada and who they play for in the NHL!

Forward players.
Patrice Bergeron, L'Ancienne-Lorette, Que. (Boston Bruins)
Sidney Crosby, Cole Harbour, N.S. (Pittsburgh Penguins) Named a Alternate captain.
Ryan Getzlaf, Regina, Sask. (Anaheim Ducks)
Dany Heatley, Calgary, Alta. (San Jose Sharks)
Jarome Iginla, St. Albert, Alta. (Calgary Flames) Names a Alternate captain
Patrick Marleau, Aneroid Sask. (San Jose Sharks)
Brenden Morrow, Carlyle, Sask. (Dallas Stars)
Rick Nash, Brampton, Ont. (Columbus Blue Jackets)
Mike Richards, Kenora, Ont. (Philadelphia Flyers)
Corey Perry, Peterborough, Ont. (Anaheim Ducks)
Eric Staal, Thunder Bay, Ont. (Carolina Hurricanes)
Joe Thornton, St. Thomas, Ont. (San Jose Sharks)
Jonathan Toews, Winnipeg, Man. (Chicago Blackhawks)

Defence players.
Dan Boyle, Ottawa, Ont. (San Jose Sharks)
Drew Doughty, Ottawa, Ont. (LA Kings)
Duncan Keith, Penticton, B.C. (Chicago Blackhawks)
Scott Niedermayer, Cranbrook, B.C. (Anaheim Ducks) - Named Captain.
Chris Pronger, Dryden, Ont. (Philadelphia Flyers) - Named a Alternate captain.
Brent Seabrook, Tsawwassen, B.C. (Chicago Blackhawks)
Shea Weber, Sicamous, B.C. (Nashville Predators)

Goalies.
Roberto Luongo, Montreal, Que. (Vancouver Canucks)
Martin Brodeur, Montreal, Que. (New Jersey Devils)
Marc-Andre Fleury, Sorel, Que. (Pittsburgh Penguins)

Amazingly and sadly only 2 of these players play for Canadian NHL teams, Legend Jarome Iginla for the Calgary Flames and Roberto Luongo for the Vancouver Canucks.

Canada seem to be favored to win the Gold Medal with the Russians being their main opposition. The Mens Hockey at the upcoming Winter Olympics I will be following intensely.

Canadian Team comments from Arthur!
"It's really hard to complain when there is so much talent out there. We could easily field 2 teams with the embarrasment of riches we have. My only complaint was they couldn't find a spot for Jay Bouwmeester. I have a feeling he will end up on the taxi squad. I am happy with the forwards selected. The goalies were the easy part. I was also surprised how accurate the TSN pannel was in predicting the team that was picked. Only two mistakes, I believe they should have had Bouwmeester instead of Doughty and Carter over Richards." Arthur

I received a email yesterday from Jim Balsillie AKA Mr Blackberry entitled "To all Make It Seven supporters."!
I've been 100% supporting Jim and its disappointing that he hasn't "again" succeeded in his huge desire to own a NHL team and relocate it to Eastern Canada. On this occasion it was the seriously in debt/bankrupt Phoenix Coyotes. I'm not sure why some Canadian media don't like Jim and what he is trying to do. Maybe they just are too negative or they are jealous of the millions of dollars that he has made mainly selling Blackberry phones.

There is a huge Eastern Canadian hockey market with one terrible under achieving and rich team, the Toronto Maple Leafs. There are several US teams in cities in debt. In these cities many/most people don't even care or follow Hockey and that includes fans of other sports. Hmmm, I'm confused as to why a 7th team isn't in Canada. Below is the latest email from Jim Balsillie on the eve of the NHL season.

"To all Make It Seven supporters. From the beginning, my attempt to relocate the Coyotes to Hamilton has been about Canadian hockey fans and Canadian hockey. It was a chance to realize a dream. All I wanted was a fair chance to bring a seventh NHL team to Canada, to serve the best unserved hockey fans in the world. I believe I got that chance. I respect the court's decision, and I will not be putting forward an appeal.

Nobody can deny that we are now a big step closer to having a seventh NHL team in Canada. It doesn't matter who owns that team. When that day comes, I will be the first in line to buy a ticket to the home opener.

I want to take this opportunity to thank my family for all their love and support. I also want to thank the more than 200,000 fans who supported the bid online and the countless others who contacted me personally to show their support. This bid always was about the game we all love. Thank you." Jim Balsillie

Refer below for previouos news on Jim's desire to buy the Phoenix Coyotes.

From Sat Aug 8, 09. Champ Sidney Crosby takes The Stanley Cup to his Canadian home on his 22 birthday!
In Cole Harbour, Nova Scotia Sidney paraded The Stanley Cup in front of approximately 25,000 hockey fans on his 22 birthday. This would have been a huge highlight for the young Champ Canadian hockey player who is also the captain of the Pittsburg Penguins, the 2009 Stanley Cup Champions. Each player of the winning Stanley Cup team gets to take the famous cup to their home town. Refer above to when the famous Cup was in Kelowna and I was lucky enough to drink from it.

The Pittsburg Penguins win The Stanley Cup. They defeated the Detroit Red Wings 2-1 in Game 7 in Detroit!
What a great game it was. The Penguins were up 2-0, the Red Wings scored in the 3rd period to make it 2-1. But great defense by the Penguins and great goaltending by Penguins Marc-Andre Fleury held off the Red Wings onslaught. Canadian Champ Sidney Crosby the Captain of the Penguins knee was injured early in the 2nd Period as he was slammed into the sideboards. Sidney came back for one short shift in the 3rd period but was not able to continue.

Maxime Talbot scored both of the Penguins goals while Jonathan Ericsson scored for the Red Wings. Penguins Evgeni Malkin the big man and star forward from Russia won the Conn Smythe Trophy for the Best player in the Stanley Cup playoffs. It's a great moment in sport to see each of the winning teams players scate around the ice holding the Cup above their heads. Congratulations to the Penguins.

Gary Bettman's dig at the possible Phoenix Coyotes relocation saga as he hands the Cup to Sidney Crosby!
Gary Bettman the NHL commissioner presented The Stanley Cup to Sidney Crosby stating how it was great that the Penguins were saved several years ago after financial trouble, staying in Pittsburg and to now see them win the Cup. A obvious statement by Gary with the current Phoenix Coyotes bankruptcy and possible/hopeful relocation to Canada. Can't agree with you in the Phoenix situation though Gary. Refer below.

Thurs June 11. Game 7 of The Stanley Cup is Friday night in Detroit as the Pittsburg Penguins try to defeat the Detroit Red Wings!
Hopefully this is a great game 7. The Red Wings are favoured to win at their home arena and thus go Back to Back.

Game 6 is tonight and the Red Wings are up 3-2 thus can repeat and win the Stanley Cup. I'm hoping the Penguins can level the series and then go onto win the Cup.

From Thurs May 7. Make it seven, meaning seven NHL teams in Canada. Finally Jim Balsillie "Mr Blackberry" should get to own a NHL team! I and many other hockey fans believe the currently bankrupt Phoenix Coyotes must be relocated to Southern Ontario!
Here we go again as NHL commissioner Gary Bettman is again defending his ridiculous stance of keeping certain NHL teams in "no chance" USA markets as Gary tries to save the Phoenix Coyotes from going bankrupt. Surely this time the NHL owners will stand up to Gary and grant Jim Balsillie "Mr Blackberrry" a NHL franchise.

From Thurs April 30. Ooch again! Now there is only 1 CDN team left after the 1st Playoff Round, the Vancouver Canucks!
The Calgary Flames were beaten by the Chicago Blackhawks in 6 games, 4 games to 2. The Montreal Canadians were beaten by the Boston Bruins in 4 games, 4 games to 0. The Vancouver Canucks defeated the St Louis Blues in 4 games, 4 games to 0 and advanced to Round 2. They play the ChicagoBlackhawks in the 1st game of Rd 2 tonight in Vancouver. If Canucks goalie Roberto Luongo can be great I believe the Canucks can defeat the young and very quick Blackhawks.

From Fri April 17. The NHL Playoffs have started! Only 3 Canadian teams are in, damn it!
The playoffs started on Wednesday night with a Vancouver Canucks win over the St. Louis Blues. On Thurday night the Calgary Flames blew a 2-1 lead and then lost in the 1st few seconds of overtime to the Chicago Blackhawks. The Montreal Canadians also lost the the Boston Bruins. It's unfortunately again not looking very good for a Canadian team to win The Stanley Cup. I hope I am wrong. The Vancouver Canucks I believe should win the series against the Blues while the Flames are a chance against the Blackhawks but without Robyn Regehr the excellent defender they may be in trouble.

From Feb 24. "Recent Power Plays. Rangers axe coach." Bob Bagley, hockey betting consultant.
The NHL’s longest active streak of consecutive games played ended Saturday night, February 21^st. Minnesota Wild left wingman Andrew Brunette missed the game against the Detroit Red Wings, the first game he has missed since December 31, 2001. His streak ended at 509 games. Brunette left Thursday night’s game against the Calgary Flame in the first period due to a lower-body injury. He skipped practice Friday, but skated Saturday morning before receiving additional treatments. His inability to be on the ice against Detroit was disappointing to him and the Wild.

Andrew has 13 goals and 19 assists in his return to Minnesota this year after spending the last three seasons with the Colorado Avalanche. Prior to his stint in Denver, the 13-year veteran had played 3 years with the Wild. It’s a safe hockey bet that he will begin a new streak quickly. He loves to be on the ice in the battle.

With a mere 21 games remaining in a less than glamorous season the New York Rangers have axed Head Coach Tom Renney. With the team on the brink of playoff exclusion after being on top of the Eastern Conference earlier in the season, Renney became the sacrificial lamb. Never mind that the players are so out of synch that they have lost 10 of the last 12. Never mind that Renney guided the team to the second round of the playoffs for the last two seasons. Never mind that the coach is unable to score one goal or even slap one puck… when a team loses too many games the owners always think it’s the coach’s fault.

Now, maybe, the players can suck it up and act like at team again for the “fresh blood” they’ll have in the coach’s spot… or not. Sometimes you have to get rid of players with bad attitudes… not coaches trying to make the team the best it can be. Conveniently, the Rangers can now say it was all the coach’s fault. Too bad the team’s statistics don’t back up their claim." Bob Bagley… NHL betting consultant

Green is Gold!
Last Saturday night in Tampa, Florida, Mike Green did something never done before in the NHL. He scored in his eighth straight game, a record for defensemen. Scoring from the low-slot on a power play at the 5:33 mark in the second period, he was summarily mobbed by his teammates there on the ice. Green’s goal surpassed Boston’s Mike O’Connell’s record of seven straight set in 1983-1984. His score made it 4-0 for his Washington Capitals, who went on to beat the Tampa Bay Lightning 5-1. An elated Mike Green was found covered with shaving cream after the win. “It’s incredible. I’m playing with some of the best players in the world,” the modest defenseman crowed.

The game was the fifth win in seven for the Southeast Division leading Capitals. It’s a good hockey bet that if Green continues on his streak the Caps will continue their winning ways. Coach Bruce Boudreau has been given a lot of credit for Green’s improved offensive ability. He has responded by saying: “"He could have had Mickey Mouse coaching and eventually he was going to be a great hockey player. I'm just happy I'm the one who right now is able to coach Mike." The coach posted his eighth win against the Lightning without a loss.

Also receiving the post-game shaving cream treatment was goalie Michal Neuvirth, who appeared in his first NHL start. The 20-year-old finished the game with 31 saves. "What can I say? It's unreal. An unreal feeling right now. I still can't believe that. That was my best feeling ever," he said enthusiastically.

The Capitals are playing well right now. Perhaps even more important, they seem to have that camaraderie as a team that makes them a threat every time they skate. It’s a pleasure to watch a team compete that is comprised of players who respect, and even like, one another." Bob Bagley hockey betting analyst betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/

Mike Brown is a Duck !
After getting very little time on the ice this season at Vancouver, the Canucks traded Mike Brown to the Ducks last week. He was enjoying his day off when his cell phone rang and the general manager told him to pack his bags. The Ducks were playing the Predators the next evening in Nashville and Brown needed to get there ready to suit up. He left Vancouver a little before 11:00 P.M. that night for a trip to Nashville via Toronto. Flying all night, he set down in Nashville about 9:30 the next morning. After meeting his new teammates, he took a long nap before the game that evening.

Mike played over eleven minutes in his debut game with the Ducks, which was more time on the ice than he had at Vancouver this season. In fact, he had only played in 2 games for the Canucks this year. He was pumped up and ready to play, as he tied for a game high 4 hits and had 2 shots on goal. Two nights later Brown saw extensive action again in Calgary as the Ducks beat the Flames. His first home game in Anaheim will be Wednesday, February 11^th against those same Flames.

At 23 years old Brown admits he is playing on adrenaline for his new team. A good hockey bet tip is that he will continue to produce for the Ducks as his career is taken to a new level. Coach Randy Carlyle is happy with Brown. “He’s going to go out there and provide energy, try and hit and be a physical force… I expect him to be first on the forecheck and be a physical player,” the coach said.

Mike stated he is excited about the weather in California. He used to spend summers at relatives in San Diego. “It’s good to get out of that rain and cold,” he noted, referring to Vancouver. He also stated that his new teammates and team staff have been very welcoming to him. He intends to return their hospitality by playing hard and tough for the Ducks. “I play a physical game, get under guys’ skin and I’ll fight if I need to fight… I’m always kind of looking to agitate,” he stated flatly. His record bears him out, as he had 11 fighting majors in 20 games with the Canucks this year. Good luck, Mike. Welcome to Anaheim. The Ducks have put their money on the line for you. Go out and show them they made a good investment! Bob Bagley hockey betting analyst betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/

Senators Hire and Fire Again!
After a disappointing 7-4 loss to the Washington Capitals, Ottawa once again fired its head coach. Craig Hartsburg coached only 48 games for the Senators this year, after replacing fired coach John Paddock, who lasted 64 games last season. The new coach for Ottawa is Cory Clouston, who is coaching his second season at the club’s American Hockey League affiliate in Binghamton, New York. Clouston made his coaching debut for Ottawa with a 1-0 loss to the Los Angeles Kings Tuesday night, February 3^rd. The loss makes three in a row for the Senators. Clouston is the fourth coach for the Senators since their loss to Anaheim in the 2007 finals.

In elevating Clouston to the Senators top spot, General Manager Bryan Murray stated: "He knows our players, he knows our prospects and I know he gets the maximum performance out of his players in the American Hockey League. I think he earned this job, I think he deserved this job and I want to give him a chance to be the guy here. I'm hoping he can help us and that's all I'm asking him to do. Help us make this franchise be what we thought it should be from the start of the year and that is a competitive team on a daily basis."

Murray stated that Clouston would guide the team for the rest of this season. Last season, after firing Paddock, Murray coached the team for the remaining games. The NHL odds seem to be stacked against the Senators new coach. Hopefully, Clouston is the right man for the job. Hopefully, he will be able to get the team motivated to play as a cohesive unit. Hopefully, the past is just that… the past. Good luck, Cory Clouston… you will need it!" Bob Bagley, hockey betting consultant betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/

"Lemieux is a Shark! By Bob Bagley, NHL bets betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/consultant
Claude Lemieux has returned to the NHL ice for the first time since his retirement five years ago. Once dubbed “the most hated player” in hockey by an ESPN poll, he has been playing with San Jose’s development team in Worcester, Massachusetts. He had 3 goals and 8 assists in 23 games there before being promoted to the Sharks. At 43 years old Lemieux has made his comeback in a remarkable way. After talking it over with his family and getting their support, he hired a personal trainer for the first time in his life.

After dropping 25 pounds of excess weight, he began skating in September. “At that point, it was just like training camp,” he said. His hard work was worth the effort, as he appears to be in game condition now.

Lemieux is looking for his 5th Stanley Cup. His previous Cup wins were with the Montreal Canadiens, the New Jersey Devils (twice), and the Colorado Avalanche. He won the Conn Smythe Trophy for the most valuable player in the 1995 playoffs while playing for New Jersey.

His lifetime record over 21 NHL seasons includes 1,197 games, 379 goals, and 785 points along with a whopping 1,756 penalty minutes. He retired from the Dallas Stars in 2003. By his own admission he is “kind of a pain in the rear to play against.” That’s putting it mildly, as he is given the credit for almost single-handedly igniting the furious Colorado-Detroit rivalry. Fans remember him as a clutch hockey player with a notorious ability to agitate his opponents.

San Jose Sharks General Manager is quick to point out that Lemieux’s appearance on the team is based on merit, which implies he realizes the wide-spread notion it is based on star power to sell tickets.

He commented that Claude played well in Worcester and that he “added different ingredients… knowing when to do the right thing at the right time, his competitive nature.” Lemieux’s Phoenix neighbor, Sharks Center Jeremy Roenick, states that “By no means is this any kind of gimmick or any kind of charity…. This man can help our team.” Time will tell the verity of those statements. Love him or hate him… Claude Lemieux is back - time to get those hockey bets going!"

The Winter Classic was Classic! By Bob Bagley, NHL odds consultant
Wrigley Field lent some of its charm and aura to a venue other than baseball when The NHL Winter Classic was held there New Years Day. The only hockey game to ever see the light of day at Wrigley, this was one for the ages. Game time temperature was a balmy 32 degrees and the wind chill factor made it only 15 degrees, quite acceptable by Chicago standards.

Lottery winners for tickets out of nearly 250,000 entered, the 40,818 fans in attendance crowded into the seats. Hundreds more took it all in from rooftop vistas along the outfield and there was plenty of interest in NHL betting (betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/) from spectators and armchair fans alike. The rink was laid out with the goals roughly at first base and third base. The center ice faceoff dot was 112 feet from home plate. Chicago fans kept up their time-honored ritual of singing and clapping throughout the National Anthem. The seventh-inning stretch evolved into a mid-third period stretch. Chicago sports legends Ryne Sandberg, Bobby Hull, and Ferguson Jenkins butchered “Take Me out to the Ball Game” as so many before them have. The atmosphere for the day was electric.

Down on the ice the Detroit Red Wings and the Chicago Blackhawks faced off for a well skated contest. The combatants seemed to have an extra zing in their playing as the fresh air and wind gusts brought to mind their youthful days of playing hockey just for the fun of it. Detroit Coach Mike Babcock said “Our guys looked like they were 12 years old out there.” The Red Wings pulled down the victory, 6-4, but the NHL, Chicago and, yes, Wrigley Field all came away winners. Long live the Winter Classic!" Bob Bagley, NHL odds consultant. (betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/)

Listen now! My weekly segment on 5AA South Australian radio with Jeff Burzacott talking Sports including the Sean Avery diss to Dion and his girl. Click here

Left: I'm talking NHL Ice Hockey while shoveling snow after a huge snow fall in Calgary. Right: I'm here interviewing Mikka Kiprasoff after he starred for the Calgary Chieftains in Gaelic footy during the summer. Refer below for the TV shows.

Does Sean Avery really deserve to have the book thrown at him? from O'Dell Isaac
In case you’ve been living under a rock for the past few weeks, Avery, the former Dallas Stars forward, made a very crude public comment about his ex-girlfriends dating other hockey players (or, to be more precise, about hockey players dating his ex-girlfriends). Avery used a term that was vicious, intentionally hurtful, and ultimately incorrect (because it implies that Avery’s former girlfriends were virgins when he began dating them, which they likely were not).

The NHL hit Avery with a six-game suspension for conduct detrimental to the league, then the Stars severed ties with him altogether just as he was scheduled to return to the team. Twenty-three games into Avery’s contract with Dallas, he was out of a job. Still being paid, yes. But out of a job. Dallas Stars’ management claims that Avery’s dismissal was the result of a number of factors, citing the fact that the forward went out of his way to alienate teammates and management.

The comment about Elisha Cuthbert and Rachel Hunter (Avery’s former girlfriends who have both moved on to other hockey players) was simply the last straw. But something about it seems wrong. Didn’t Brett Hull have some idea what he was getting when he signed Avery? Didn’t he do any homework? A guy with a reputation as a cancer in the locker room usually leaves his muddy footprints all over previous teams. It will certainly have made a difference to the Stars’ standing in betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/

Didn’t he talk to the Red Wings, the Kings, or the Rangers and try to get a sense of the guy? Sean Avery’s statement was awful. It was embarrassing to the NHL and to the Stars. The guy is very likely a jerk. But Brett Hull should at least apologize to the fans for not doing his due diligence." O’Dell Isaac, consulting on betting.betfair.com/canada/hockey/

Talking NHL and the Flames to a massive USA and CDN audience on very popular Jim Rome show. Listen now for Free!
On Easter Friday I was lucky to get on The Jim Rome show. Jim has a syndicated sports radio show to many cities in the USA and several in Canada. It is believed he has a audience of several million daily listening to his 3 hr sports radio show. I met Jim in the Super Bowl Media centre during the Super Bowl XXXVII in San Diego. I believed this helped in getting through and on this great sports show. I have now added what I said to my YouTube/com Directors Channel. I talked about Calgary Flames and the Stanley Cup in the 3 minute call. Click here

The Montreal Canadians could not bring the Stanley Cup "finally" back to Canada!
There is now no Canadian teams left in the Stanley Cup race. Refer below.

From Sat May 3. Oh Canada. The Official Lyrics of O Canada. But Oh Canada, what is going on?
Below is the awesome Lyrics of the Canadian National Anthem that I love hearing being sung at the start of NHL games.

O Canada!
Our home and native land!
True patriot love in all thy sons command.

With glowing hearts we see thee rise,
The True North strong and free!

From far and wide,
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

God keep our land glorious and free!
O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

O Canada, we stand on guard for thee.

But Oh Canada! What is going on?
Hockey is the most popular game by a streak in Canada but no Canadian team has won the Stanley Cup since the Montreal Canadians in the 1992-93 season. That's 15 years ago. The obsession with winning the cup is driving many Canadian sports fans Crazy up here as per the example below with the huge 3 meter replica being made here in Calgary.

It's even worse when I see the Stanley Cup being won by these cities/states and teams the past 3 years, Anaheim Ducks in 07, Carolina Hurricanes in 06, 05 no one now that's another Crazy story and the Tampa Bay Lightning in 04. There are not that many sports fans that even care about Hockey in these cities. Good luck to the US based teams since 1993 but it's really sad that Canada has not won the Cup since 1993.

This years playoffs I'm not liking this but it yet again doesn't look good for a Canadian team. I was hoping for Canada's sake and my calmness that the Calgary Flames can go deep into the playoffs and win the Cup. Can the Montreal Canadians come from behind and now defeat the Philadelphia Flyers! Many Canadians will still watch the NHL Playoffs with or without a Canadian team in it but I won't be watching too much. I loose a lot of interest and am annoyed when it's the USA teams fighting for the Cup with many Canadian players on their teams in most cases.

05 no one won, that's another Crazy story!
I follow hockey intensely up here but this is still confusing me. There was no 04-05 NHL season. Not one game played! Why? $$$$$$ issue was the main reason with the NHL owners and the players on strike. Yet 3 years later many of the players are signing bigger contracts. I'm confused. A year of hockey lost. Why? Human Sports Stupidity! Fighting amongst rich owners and over paid players! It happened just after the Calgary Flames "finally" came good after many years of being bad.

Calgary Flames trade rumors. Kristian Huselius seems very likely. Alex Tanguay?
There has been lots of talk this week on Calgary sports radio about possible Flames being traded or let go. Its seems very likely that Kristian Huselius won't be a Flame next season. The Flames radio guys here are also predicting that the Flames will try and trade Alex Tanguay because of his $5+ million a year pay. Alex is a excellent player and if his shot in game 7 against the Sharks that hit the cross bar had gone in the Flames may have won and thus still be in the playoffs.

So today I'm going for a run along the Bow river here in Calgary and I recognized that it was Alex Tanguay walking his dog that I ran past. So I run back to my car grab a mykaussie.com business card and write on the back of it about how I stuck up for him on Sports Rage Sirius Satellite radio just before the trade deadline saying he wouldn't be traded when many of the sports media guys here were saying that he would be. I then run back and have a brief chat with him and give him my business card saying how I'm the Aussie guy reporting on many sports here in Canada and how I talked about him on Sports Rage. I obviously did not want to hassle him like some crazy fans do but it was good to meet him and especially tell him about Gabriel Morency's radio show on Sirius Satellite radio. Gabriel is from Montreal and so is Alex.

The San Jose Sharks defeat the Calgary Flames 5-3 in game 7 to advance!
The city of Calgary is in mourning today as the beloved Flames for the 3rd year in a row get defeated in the 1st round of the playoffs. Flames star goalie Miikka Kiprusoff being taken off and replaced by Curtis Joseph by coach Mike Keenan after the Flames went down 4-2 was huge talk here today on radio. With up to 13 Flames players becoming free agents next year it looks like there will be a few changes as many believed this team had the potential to make a good run for the Cup this year. I like coach Mike Keenan but I and many Flames fans thought it strange that Miikka was replaced last night in goal. It was a great series and in the end the Sharks were the better team and deserved to advance.

Now it is up to the Montreal Canadians in the NHL East to try and bring the Stanley Cup "finally" back to Canada.

The Calgary Flames defeat the San Jose Sharks 2-0 in game 6 to tie the series 3-3!
Game 7 is Tuesday night! Can't wait!

A Huge Stanley Cup replica arrives in downtown Calgary!
On Friday a 3 meter replica of the Stanley Cup was delivered to the Scotiabank on Stephen Ave in downtown Calgary. The cup was made from aluminum by Black Diamond Industries. Apparently the metal fabrication shop took 200 hours to built it with another 40 hours polishing it. Scotiabank are having a Canada national contest inviting Canadians to build Stanley Cups. This one would have to win it I presume.

The San Jose Sharks defeat the Calgary Flames 4-3 in game 5 to lead the series 3-2!
What a great game it was on Thursday night in San Jose. The Flames got out to a early lead but then the Sharks came back strongly to take a 4-1 lead. The Flames then replied with 2 goals but in the end went down 4-3.

From Wed April 15. The San Jose Sharks defeat the Calgary Flames 3-2 in game 4 to tie the series 2-2!
Flames were up for most of the night and then the Sharks won it with 7 seconds to go.

From Monday April 14. The Calgary Flames defeat the San Jose Sharks 4-3 in game 3. Can I say the Sharks are chokers are being up 3-0 after 3 minutes of play!
Wow! The Calgary Flames came back after being down 3-0 after just over 3 minutes of play to win 4-3. Champ Flames goalie Mikka Kiprosoff was replaced by Curtis Joseph after the 3 early goals. In the last few minutes former Shark Owen Nolan scored the winning goal for the Flames in a great comeback.

As I was waiting today to get on The Jim Rome show I was going to start by saying "Yeh yeh Clones I know Champ Aussie Golfer Greg Norman the Shark choked in the Masters but what about the San Jose Sharks choking last night. Soft!"

Unfortunately I didn't get on today but hopefully I can get on The Jim Rome Show next Monday and qualify for the April 25 Smack Off contest. I must have been close to getting on as they took my call and I was on hold listening in the phone box to the show for 2 1/2 hours. I nearly peed me pants it was so long. Refer below for the link to when I got through the screening system and was talking NHL Hockey on Easter Friday on the very popular Jim Rome show.

From Sat April 12. With the series tied at 1 the Calgary hockey fans are all excited as the Flames are now home to take on the Sharks in game 3 on Sunday night!
The San Jose Sharks defeated the Calgary Flames 2-0 in game 2 of the playoffs. The Calgary Flames defeated the San Jose Sharks 3-2 in game 1 of the playoffs.
Excitingly it seems the Flames can compete with the more fancied Sharks. I really do hope they can win the series as it is definitely exciting when your favorite team is in the playoffs.

What are Toronto Maple Leafs fans doing this time of year?
I presume many are still watching hockey but many will be again still crying after another year of not making the playoffs. What a badly run organization.

A CBC Hockey commercial?
I was watching a CBC NHL television commercial the other night and was a bit dumbfounded. The commercial featured legend Mark Messier going through the streets somewhere in Canada promoting the hockey playoffs "Bring Home the Stanley Cup contest." The 3 NHL jerseys they showed in the commercial were the New York Rangers, the Tampa Bay Lightning and the Colorado Avalanche. To a Canadian television audience why would they show 3 USA based teams jerseys and no Canadian teams jerseys?

On Tuesday night the Calgary Flames defeated the Edmonton Oilers 3-2! Oilers are knocked out of the playoff race!
It was another classic Battle Of Alberta. The young and talented Oilers after a great past 1+ mths have now been knocked out of the playoff race.

On Sunday night the Vancouver Canucks hammered the Calgary Flames 6-2 in Vancouver!
What a horrid lose it was for the Flames but it was a great win by the Canucks. The Western playoff race is crazy! Tonight the Flames play the Oilers again but this time it is in Edmonton.

On Saturday night the Edmonton Oilers defeated the Calgary Flames 2-1! The Oilers are amazingly still alive and a chance to make the upcoming Wild West Playoffs!
It was a great Battle Of Alberta game on Saturday night. It was a bad lose for the Flames but the win by the Oilers has kept their playoff chances alive.

From Mon March 24. The Calgary Flames defeat the Minnesota Wild 5-4 in a great game on Saturday night in Calgary. Jarome Iginla the Flames Champ captain scores a hat trick. Dion Phaneuf the Flames Champ defensemen scores a great goal!
What a great game of hockey it was on Saturday night. The goal that Dion scored was amazing. He went pass all the defencemen for the Wild and scored a great goal then ended up on the ice against the boards. It was a such a great goal that his team mates were heading of the ice for a change thinking that Dion had no chance of scoring a goal. Then Jarome Iginla scored 3 goals to set up the Flames win. I loved this especially as on Friday I talked about how great both of these guys were to a huge USA audience on The Jim Rome show.

From Sat March 22, 08. Talking NHL on The Jim Rome show on Easter Friday!
Wow! This was big yesterday. Seeing Jim introduced me as Myk in Calgary I started my sports talking about The Flames Jarome Iginla being one of the best hockey players in the World and about Dion Phaneuf and his apparent new Cwoc actress girlfriend Elisha Cuthbert.

I then also talked about NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman doing something good last year in regards to I believe helping in getting Paris Hilton locked up right at the time that the Stanley Cup was doing the rounds of LA last year so that she wouldn't be able to get her dirty rotten stinking mouth etc all over The Stanley Cup. You know what I mean? Paris just has to be in the limelight and I know she would have been hanging out with the Anaheim Mighty Donald Disney Duck players or whatever their name is and The Stanley Cup. The Fan 960 in Calgary did not broadcast this great radio show on Easter Friday and thus no Calgary sports fans heard me talking about the Flames to the massive USA audience. I am guessing that they did not want to pay for the feed seeing it was a holiday here in Calgary on Friday. Oh well I had made up my mind on the Thursday night to try and get on.

I believe Jim Rome has about 5 million listeners daily. He is the biggest sports radio guy in USA with his show going to many USA markets. Many places in Canada also carry his daily 3 hour sports radio show. I met Jim Rome at the Super Bowl Media centres in 03 and 04 and thus I believe this is a reason why I got through and thus got on his very popular sports radio show yesterday. Next time I need to slow down a bit and realize that the large USA audience is not used to my Aussie accent. I tend to get very excitable and passionate when I talk sports on USA and CDN radio especially when I talk about Aussie Rules Footy.

I just subscribed to his online pod cast to re listen and I was on for 3 minutes without him interrupting at all. He bagged me a bit after the 3 minutes saying "I didn't understand Myk, I heard about Brett Favre and Darren Bennett." but then he said "No Myk I did understand you. That was Myk for 3, 5, 8 minutes however long that was and yes we do see Myk down at Super Bowl's in the Media Centre. That was Myk Aussie in Calgary".

Michele thinks they will win it all. I say Carolina, slighty over Pittsburgh and Buffalo. Most all of the Canadian teams will make the playoffs, but I don't think Calgary. Sorry. Kiprisoff will help. But they need two more scorers to help Iginla...Unless they make a trade." Moose

I think Calgary will be good this year and I think they have enough scoring potential. We have the defence young stud of Dion Phaneuf as well. Listening to Flames new coach Mike Keenan on CBC's After Hrs interview on Saturday night was very good.

Sat, Oct 6 07 "NHL 07,08 started in London, England! Moose's report with input from Michele DeWalt! Hockey Cwoc Babe!" Myk Aussie

The Stanley Cup Champs loose season opener in London, England. The Los Angeles Kings defeated the Anaheim Ducks 4-1 last Saturday night to start the 2007-08 NHL season.

NHL Preview 2007-08 Season. What to look for in Each Conference:
Predicted Order of Finish in Each Division and Conference Playoff Teams:
Eastern Conference: Atlantic Division Order of Finish: (1) Pittsburgh*, (2) New York Islanders*, (3) Philadelphia, (4) New York Rangers, (5) New Jersey
Northeast Division: (1) Buffalo*, (2) Ottawa*, (3) Toronto*, (4) Montreal, (5) Boston
Southeast Division: (1) Carolina*, (2) Florida*, (3) Atlanta*, (4) Tampa Bay, (5) Washington
*Playoff Teams*

What to Look for in the East: Despite the best Russian player in the league [Naturally Ovenchkin!] and great passing, Washington will sink and Coach firing talks will fill the air. Carolina will dominate early but expect Lindy Ruff's always tough Buffalo Sabres and Ottawa and maybe Sid 'The Kid' Crosby's Penguins to make a late run. Prediction: Buffalo and Carolina in the East Finals, Crosby for M.V.P. again and a Carolina Stanley Cup in seven over Nashville Predators." Moose

From Michele "Western Conference: Central Division: (1) Nashville*, (2) Detroit*, (3) Columbus, (4) Saint Louis, (5) Chicago Blackhawks
Northwest Division: (1) Minnesota*, (2) Edmonton*, (3) Vancouver*, (4) Calgary, (5) Colorado
"Calgary, Vancouver 1 and 2 for me!" Myk
Pacific Division: (1) Phoenix*, (2) Anaheim*, (3) Dallas*, (4) Los Angeles, (5) San Jose *Playoff Teams* "What The Sharks 5th. A surprise pick." Myk

What to look for the in the West: Phoenix will surprise everybody but not in the playoffs! Anaheim got good and lucky late last year. But congrats to the Ducks.
Vancouver's one-and-only chance is if Luongo REALLY does replace New Jersey's Broduer as the best Goalie in the game this year. I believe he will by a whisker.

Detroit with aging Goalie Hasek will wilt in the first round of the playoffs like two years ago v. a red-hot Edmonton team. Nashville is the cream of the crop in the West with the best three young Defencemen in Shea Weber, Dan Hamhuis and Ryan Suter. This team will probably leave Music City in a year or two, but not before they win one Stanley Cup. Moose you're wrong. Nashville will play Carolina (or Lindy Ruff's Buffalo) but will cream either one in five or six. Nashville over Carolina/Buffalo is six." Michele DeWalt

Mark Messier, Scott Stevens, former Stanley Cup Carolina Hurricane Ron Francis and Al MacInnis, General Manager of the Norfolk Admirals are about to be inducted into the Pro Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto Ontario this September. I will get a chance to see there hardware when I go to Toronto this November 23rd-25th for the 95th CFL Grey Cup and the 34th CIAU Vanier Cup.

Messier was the recipient of six Stanley Cup rings. Five with the Edmonton Oilers and one more in 1994 with the New York Rangers.

Did Garry Bettman finally do something really good? I’m thinking it was he that made a phone call to the judge in LA to get Paris Hilton put back in jail. Yep, there is no doubt she would have been hanging around the players, celebrating with them in LA and putting herself all over the cup.

Moose's NHL - AHL - ECHL Hockey Report is below!

The Donald Daffy Disney Anaheim LA Ducks or whatever their name is win the Stanley Cup defeating the Ottawa Senators 6-2 in game 5! To me it was a disappointing Stanley Cup series. The Ottawa Senators did not play that well or was it as thought the West was way better than the East this year and a Western team was expected to win.

Again the Stanley Cup goes to a city where many sports fans don't really care too much about Ice Hockey. Since arriving in Canada in March 1998 I eagerly await the day that a Canadian team can again win the Cup. For the 3rd year in a row a Canadian team has lost in the Stanley Cup Final. The Crazy thing was the Senators last night scored a goal for the Ducks. The goal that came off of Ray Emery's skate after Senators defenseman Chris Phillips screwed up by loosing control of the puck was amazing, very bad, silly, a stupid mistake, sad, pitiful.

Imagine all the Edmonton Oilers fans felt last night as they watched the now Hatred Chris Pronger the "Prog Her Man" carry the Cup around the rink. I like NHL Hockey but the season goes way too long. It's summer now.

Moose's NHL - AHL - ECHL Hockey Report!

"Champions, Champions, Champions of the Hockey World! Anaheim Ducks, Hamilton Bulldogs and Idaho Steelheads!" Moose Salzer

NHL - The 89th NHL Stanley Cup was won on NBC here in the states by the Anaheim (Just) Ducks, 6-2 over the slumping Ottawa Senators, who haven't won a Stanley Cup since 1987 [the Ottawa CFL'r's haven't won a Grey Cup since 1976, also]. The Ducks, lead by the Neidermayer brothers from British Columbia were just too strong in goal with J.S Guegerre dominating and beat a worn down Ottawa team four games to one. The placement in the Stanley Cup was only the second in Ducks history and they lost, 4-3 to New Jersey in 2003, despite Guegerre's M.V.P that year. The Ducks have made the playoffs only five times now in their 14 year career.

AHL - The Hamilton Bulldogs won their second overall Calder Cup, 2-1 over the Hershey (PA) Bears, four games to one last night in Hamilton, Ontario. On Gabriel Morency's Sports Rage after hours show last Saturday a.m., morning side, a guy called in right before my Arena Footy segment from Hershey, PA from last weeks 4-2 Hamilton win. The Bulldogs won the Calder Cup Series, 4-1 like the Ducks did in the Stanley Cup Series.

I predicted both that Ottawa would make the Stanley Cup and that Hamilton would win the Calder Cup several weeks ago on Sports Rage with Gabriel Morency. Lead by ex-6.5 year Norfolk Admiral Captain A.J. Baines, who scored the winning goal, the Bulldogs took out the team that knocked our Norfolk Admirals out of the playoffs in week one. Baines, like the Neidermayer's is from Kamloops, B.C, Canada.

ECHL - Zonk's Alaska Aces are no longer the ECHL's Champions, as the Idaho Steelheads defeated the Dayton Flyers for the Kelly Cup Championship, in six games, 4-2. It was Idaho's first ever Kelly Cup win. The old Hampton Roads Admirals won the 1991, 1992 and 1998 Kelly Cups here in Norfolk, VA. [The Kelly Cup in '91 & '92 was called the Jack Riley Cup, when John Brophy coached our team. Brophy was fired after a 28 win season in Richmond earlier this spring. We have a banner for Coach Broph's accomplishments in Scope Arena]." Moose

Ottawa is in the Stanley Cup!
As I am Aussie/Canadian I will be supporting Ottawa in the Stanley Cup. Although I am in many ways Pro West Canadian and the events of two weeks ago in regards to what happened in Canadian Parliament out in the East of Canada upset me I will be supporting the Ottawa Senators against either the Disney Donald Daffey Ducks or whatever their name is or the Detroit Red Wings. The Ottawa Senator defeated the Buffalo Sabres to advance to the Stanley Cup.

Ducks defeat Red Wings 2-1! The "Pronger Man" blames Canadian Media for his 1 game suspension!
On Sunday the Disney Donald Daffey Ducks or whatever their name is defeated the Detroit Red Wings in Overtime 2-1 to lead the series 3-2. The much disliked out West of Canada Chris Pronger lived up to his name last week as he was suspended for 1 game for "Pronging" with his elbows as he hit Tomas Holmstrom a Red Wings player hard into the boards.

"NHL report! Ducks one win away from Date with Lord Stanley and Ottawa! AHL Playoff Report!" Moose Salzer
Whether or not Chris Pronger was the difference or not will NOT matter IF the J.S. Guigerre-lead Anaheim (Just) Ducks win the Western Conference and make their second Stnley Cup Finals in five seasons or not.

I am surprised that the esteemed Aussie in Calgary hasn't commented on picks of the Ottawa Senators to win the Stanley Cup and the Hamilton Bulldogs to win the Calder Cup, the two highest Championships in North American Hockey. Surely I admit I would have rather seen the Norfolk Admirals or the Manitoba Moose win in the AHL and the Hurricanes repeat in the NHL.

But dig this; the Senators original franchise in Ottawa hasn't won the Stanley Cup since 1927! The Bulldogs in the AHL since 1986! Good luck to all the teams remaining in both league's playoffs. May the best and fairest win. That's on the ice, Chris Prong-her!" Moose

"NHL - AHL Playoffs Picks and Update!" Moose Salzer
NHL Eastern Conference:
Expect the sparks to fly in the Buffalo vs Ottawa series. I am taking Ottawa in an upset. Michele is picking Buffalo in five or six.

Western Conference" Michele
Detroit, with ageless Chris Chelios, 45, v. Anaheim (The Just Ducks), or as Rich calls them, 'Those Darn Disney Ducks.' I think Detroit, made with themselves after last years flame out v. Edmonton, the number eight seed will wipe out Detriot. Rich thinks Detroit in seven.

Stanley Cup Picks - Moose
Ottawa in seven OVER Detroit
"Detroit in six or seven OVER Coach Lindy Ruff's Buffalo broken hearts. Like in 1999, it's just not a strong enough Sabres squad to take Lord Stanley's Cup. " Michele

American Hockey League Playoffs I say:
Eastern Conference:
Providence in seven OVER Manchester.
Wilkes-Barre/Scranton in six OVER Hershey, though I should be rooting for Hershey after Wilkes-Barre's Pens beat our favored Norfolk Admirals, in six.

Western Conference:
Why is it the two remaining Canadian teams have to play each other?
Manitoba OVER Hamilton in seven.
Iowa in an upset OVER Chicago.

Calder Cup Pick:
Manitoba in six OVER Wilkes-Barre/Scranton

In the ECHL
I like Cincinnati in seven OVER Defending Champ Alaska, who will be getting an Af2 team for Csonka's group next year." Moose Salzer

From Sat, May 5. As I said on Sports Rage last night. The Shane Doan Disgrace!
"Un, Deux, Trois! Un, Deux, Trois! Un, Deux, Trois! No not 1, not 2 but 3 goals Shane Doan the Canadian Captain scored yesterday in the 6-3 win against Belarus at the IIHF World Championships of Hockey. He obviously was very angry at the disgraceful proceedings that happened in Canadian Parliament in Ottawa this week. The umpire in a NHL that Shane was playing in several years ago was a Canadian Frenchmen. Shane was accused and cleared of calling the umpire "a Frenchman" or something similar thus a "apparent" racist remark. Many Tnucy's Quebec politicians were this week going off in Canadian Parliament as to why he was named Canadian Captain. Yet he was cleared of this! Amazing!

The Wild Wild West has been in uproar this week over this seeing that Shane is from Halkirk Alberta. The guys on the Fan 960 radio here in Calgary were going right off and I agree. With the problems that Canada has along with other countries as well how could the Tnucy Quebec politicians waste time and money on this "non issue". For non Canadians Quebec is a mainly French Province in Canada. Many French/Canadians in Quebec also want to separate from Canada.

Also from Sports Rage last night. I believe I know why Canucks star goalie Roberto Luongo missed the 1st 3+ minutes of the 2nd overtime period on Thursday night!
Roberto who is from Montreal Quebec but now a Western Canadian was I believe also so disgusted at the Quebec Tnucy politicians this week that I think he had cronic diarerra during the week and then unfortunately during the game on Thursday night. See its kind of hard to have a crap with all the hockey goalie equipment on but I'm thinking he simply had to go again to the dunny at the break after the 1st overtime period.

Well his Cleveland Browns shitta me pants was all over his hockey equipment and thus it had to be cleaned up before he could rejoin his mates in the 2nd overtime loss against the Disney Ducks. Roberto played a great game under these stressful circumstances. There has been no other explanation that I have heard yet as to why he missed the 3 minutes. The Canucks bosses did say it was a equipment issue.

I was also very Aussie patriotic and also Western Canadian patriotic after this disgrace in Canadian Parliament this week. So also went Hardcore Sports Rage on MLB for a bit last night. For MLB webWORLD Click here." Myk

From Sat, April 28 07 The Vancouver Canucks defeat the Disney Ducks in game 2 in the 2nd overtime "period" 2-1!
I enjoyed watching the game immensely last night. The injury ridden defence of the Vancouver Canucks had a great win in game 2 after getting hammered in game 1 to the Disney Ducks, I mean Anaheim Mighty Ducks. What is their real name. Maybe its the Donald Mighty Ducks of Disney land, Anaheim. I'm just not sure now, they have changed their name so much of late.

Chris "Prong Her" lived up to his name last night of being a "Pronger" but this time it was with a team mate. He pronged Teemu Selanne in the face with his stick. Not very nice but it was a accident by the Pronger man taking out the star forward for part of the game. Do you know what to "Prong Her" means to a Aussie? Read below to find out.

Wed, April 17 07 "The Flames defeat the Red Wings in Calgary 3-2! They were definitely "On Fire" and thus set off the Fire Alarm! Canucks over Stars again!" Myk Aussie

What a great game it was last night at the Pengrowth Saddledome in Calgary, the Flames defeating the Red Wings 3-2. Red Wings now lead the series 2-1.

The Flames were so hot in the 2nd "period" that they set off the Fire Alarm in the Saddledome. I could hear the alarm going off watching the CBC TV broadcast. The commentators were a bit worried for a bit as well as a evacuation of the building would have messed up their broadcast.

Just as well the security boss realized it was the Flames players "On Fire" that set off the Fire Alarm and there was no need to evacuate the building. They go at it again on Thursday night in Calgary. I'm hoping the Flames win and tie up the series at 2-2 because they are back in Detroit on Saturday. They have been horrid away from Calgary all year. What is with that?

The Calgary Flames get Hammered by the Detroit Red Wings 4-1!
As I drive around Calgary in the afternoon's I get to listen to The Fan radio with 95% Flames talk, over and over again it's often the same stuff but that's OK I suppose. Thursday night nothing changed really, the Flames absolutely suck when playing away from the Pengrowth Saddledome in Calgary. They were hammered 4-1 by the Red wings. If Flames Goalie Miikka Kiprusoff hadn't played awesome it could have been 10 goals by the Red Wings. Game 2 is Sunday morning 11am Calgary time. I'm really hoping the Flames come good and defeat the Red Wings in the 1st Round.

It's great living in a Canadian city when their NHL team goes deep into the playoffs. It sucks when they don't. I'm glad I'm not in Oiler Babes Edmonton or Gabriel Morency's Montreal or Smelly Toronto right now.

The Vancouver Canucks win game against the Dallas Stars in the 4th Over Time "Period" 5-4 but then loose game 2, 2-0!
Wow! What a game it was Wednesday night between the Canucks and the Stars at GM Place in Vancouver. I watched into the 2nd Over Time "Period" and then in the morning gladly saw how the Canucks won. Jim Rome talked about this game on his show on Thursday and how their is nothing like the NHL Playoffs with some game's going to many Over Time "Periods" and well into the night. The Canucks fans got their moneys worth but that's Crazy the game going so long, 3 at 20 minute "Periods" and then well into the 4th 20 minute Overtime. w

Canucks Brent Sopel hurts back picking up cracker!
This is funny. Canucks defenseman Brent Sobel missed game 1 of the playoffs after he reportedly strained his back picking up a cracker biscuit off of the floor. Amazing! I can't believe he admitted this is how it happened. He didn't need to lie but letting people know this, is simply a Crazy Canuck story.

Canucks defenceman, Kevin Bieka what a player!
After watching a great interview of the CBC guys interviewing Kevin a few weeks ago on After Hours I thought I better see how good he is. Kevin in his 1st full year as a Canuck defenseman is now one of my favorite players. The guy is everywhere in defense. His reading of the play is unreal. He just seems to have the uncanny knack of being in the right place on nearly all of the attaching moves by the opposition team. He likes to fight as well. Hers Kevin's profile on the Canucks site Click here

The Ottawa Senators hammer the Pittsburg Penguins in game 1, 6-3!
I'll be watching as much of this series and as many "Periods" as I can. The Senators the only Canadian team in the East versus the young Stars from the Penguins including the NHL leading scorer "Sid the Kid", Sidney Crosby

A Hockey game has 3 "Periods"!
This really freaked me out when I 1st came to Canada in March 1998. I was invited to a game at Maple Leaf Gardens and at the end of what I thought was the 3rd Quarter of the 4 Quarter Leafs vs Flames game I stayed sitting down when everyone started leaving. I couldn't believe it when my new CDN mates told me the game was over. What game has 3 terms or "Periods" they call it. Every game I know of has 4 quarters or 2 halves.

I have some fun with this 3 "Periods" in the commentary that I did recently of the Calgary Kangaroo's Aussie Rules Footy and Canadian guys playing in a Hockey Final at Olympic Oval. The tape has now been send to Vancouver for Joe to do the MYKwebTV edit. I'm looking forward to seeing the final edit of this the 1st ever hockey game that I have filmed and commentated on.

Eastern Conference:
Norfolk, Manchester, Wilkes-Barre/Scranton, Hershey, Hartford. Sixth and last spot up for grabs between: Worcester, Providence and Lowell. I predict Providence will secure it as they currently have the most wins, 41, so far.

Western Conference:
Manitoba, Hamilton (West? Hamilton? Like when Paul Tagliabue had Montreal in NFL Europe in '91-'92!), Omaha, Chicago, Milwaukee and Rochester, who Don Cherry Coached and played for!

Calder Cup Prediction: Norfolk Admirals v. the Manitoba Moose. Manitoba in six!
New Direction for 2007-08 Norfolk Admirals, now property of the Tampa Bay Lightning! Poor Coach of the AHL Year, Mike Haviland will be ostensibly out of a job, at least with our Admirals (as opposed to the Milwaukee kind!), as the Tampa Bay Lightining, who won the 2004 Stanley Cup, will be our parent team in the NHL next year. I was hoping like many others in the area that it would be the Stanley Cup Defending Champ Carolina Hurricanes (who finished ninth in the East in the NHL and didn't make the playoffs this time). Haviland Coach of the Year in the AHL Norfolk Coach Mike Haviland is the American Hockey League Coach of the Year for 2006-07, and much deserved. With six games left in the AHL reg. season, Norfolk is 48-21-6-2 with 104 points our best season in quite a while. Way to go, Coach Mike!" Moose

Flames make the playoffs "just"!
Part way through last nights game between the Flames and the Oilers the Flames got news that the Nashville Predators had defeated the Colorado Avalanche 4-2 and thus they secured the 8th spot in the West. To then loose 3-2 to the lowly Oilers was not good. The Flames now play the Detroit Redwings in the 1st Rd of the playoffs.

Again 2 Canadian teams in the East miss the playoffs. It's disappointing that the Ottawa Senators are the only Canadian team to make the playoffs in the East.

From Sat, April 7, 07 Flames defeat the Oilers and they make the playoffs! Montreal Canadians defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs and they make the playoffs!
Flames defeat the Oilers and they make the playoffs!
With the Colorado Avalanche 3 points behind the Calgary Flames and only 2 games to go, the Flames can lock up the 8th playoff spot in the powerful NHL West tonight with a win over their number 1 rival the Edmonton Oilers. If they don't defeat the horrid of late Oilers they don't deserve to be in the playoffs.

The Flames then venture to Colorado to play the Avalanche on Sunday in what could be but shouldn't be the decider of who gets the 8th spot.

A new place to watch the Flames "hopefully" next week as well.
From Jerry Nuffy on Total-CFL Discussion today. "As the Stampeders are a part of the Flames organization, you will be able to visit one of the best bars I have every seen, Flames Central. They have 150 TV's and a great atmosphere. It will be a great place to watch CFL and all other sports. If any of you are in town it is on the Stephen Ave Mall across from the Bay." Jerry Nuffy

I just went there. It opens at 5pm today. I'm going for a watch, a few Kokanees and a gander at what the Cwoc talent is like.

Montreal Canadians defeat the Toronto Maple Leafs and they make the playoffs!
Go the Canadians! I can't believe it, again this year the Toronto Maple Leafs are a average team. They have lots of money, a huge fan base but are a average team. I was told recently that the owners don't really care if they don't win the Stanley Cup as they make so much money anyway.

I know one thing, even though Gabriel Morency is now based in Toronto with Sirius Satellite radio he will be rooting for the Montreal Canadians.

If the Toronto Maple Leafs defeat the Montreal Canadians then it will be either they or "Crying" Ryan Smith's new team the New York Islanders that will get the 8th spot in the weaker NHL East.

As I now leave here to go for a few Kokanee's and get ready to watch the Flames vs Oilers the Montreal Canadians are currently up 4-3 over the Toronto Maple Leafs!

Wed, Mar 28 07 "Moose's Pro USA NHL report! The Hockey Roo's defeat the Ice Roo's 3-0 in a Hockey final at Olympic Oval last Sunday! MYKwebTV of the game coming!" Myk Aussie

"Chris Chelios becomes the all-time leader in games played for American NHL players! Focus on Detroit, Hockeytown USA!" Moose Salzer
Forty-five year old winger Chris Chelios became the all-time leader in games played in NHL history, in the Red Wings win over the Anaheim Ducks tonight, 1-0. Chelios, who has been on two Stanley Cup winners says he plans to play 'until he's fifty.' That I'll believe when I see it! But as far as I am concerned, he's certainly NOT the best American player of all-time. Take your pick between Mike Modano or Brian Leech folkes, but don't say Chris, unless you're just talking about longevity! Focus on red-hot Detroit.

The Red Wings are now in a three way tie with Buffalo of the Eastern Conference and the West's Anaheim Ducks for the best record, with 103 points in the NHL. It is conceivable that the team that finishes second in the West, either Nashville or Detroit may end up being the fourth seed in the NHL playoffs in two weeks." Moose Salzer

Left: Cwoc Oiler Babe a definite Oiler expert. Oiler babe went on Edmonton radio several years ago after the Oiler's traded away some of their best players. She kicked butt on radio with her Hockey knowledge. She also mentioned how she was writing NHL reports for MYKwebWORLD mykaussie.com. That day I had lots of Edmonton people visit this section of MYKwebWORLD. She would have enjoyed watching the Roo's Sunday way more than watching the now "Horrid" Edmonton Oilers. Oilers have lost 11 straight now since trading "Crying" Ryan Smyth. She would have definitely been impressed with the way the Aussie's have picked up the game so quickly.

The Hockey Roo's defeat the Ice Roo's 3-0 in Sundays Hockey final at Olympic Oval!
On Sunday afternoon at Olympic Oval here in Calgary I witnessed and very luckily filmed something great in Canada.

The Hockey Roo's and the Ice Roo's teams were made up of many Calgary Kangaroo and Calgary Bear Aussie Rules Football guys. Many of these guys only started playing Ice Hockey in late 2006 and many of these guys had hardly ever even skated before. I was amazed at how well me Aussie mates had picked up Canada's game. I actually thought I would be getting some funny MYKwebTV with some of the Aussie guys going ass up but not to be, I got great footage. Both of these teams were part of a 7 team competition here in Calgary. The Ice Roo's finished top and then on Sunday lunchtime the Hockey Roo's won their semi final to get into the final.

The Hockey Roo's caused a upset winning the Big game 3-0. Winning the right to wear the magnificent Blue and White Calgary Kangaroo jerseys I believed helped somewhat. Aussies Troy Rose, Judgey, Brad Flower, Beau Toohey and Gonads were telling me how they really enjoy playing hockey, learning new things and seeing improvement in their games. Brad Copeland has been in Canada for 7-8 years now and started playing hockey when he arrived here so he was definitely one of the best Aussies.

Several of the Canadian guys that also play Aussie Rules football for the Roo's including Trevor Stewart and Smirley were telling me how they liked teaching the Aussie guys and seeing them improve.

Number 8 for the Hockey Roo's got my vote for Best on Ice. He was dominant in attack. Afterwards I found out that this guy was in fact a Aussie but he had grown up on Canada and thus played for quite a few years. The goalies on both teams were great but my 2nd Best on Ice goes to the Hockey Roo's goalie. These guys should go join Cake out in Eastern Canada in his successful Rent a Goalie business.

Even better is the Hockey Roo's and Ice Roo's often played at 11pm on a week night as this was the only Ice time available here in Calgary for them. That's keen I reckon. After working all day, settling in at home and then many nights they had to get into freezing cars to drive to play there new loved sport, Canada's game of Ice hockey. A great story! MYKwebTV coming of the Big game from the famous Olympic Stadium here in Calgary, the home of the 1988 Winter Olympics!" Myk Aussie

Sidney Crosby of the Pittsburg Penguins reaches 100 points in a season, Wow!
On Saturday night the young Super Star of the NHL Sidney Crosby scored his 100th point of the season, the 1st player to reach this mark this season. What a great effort in only his 2nd year in the NHL. He is now the youngest player in NHL history with two 100 points seasons. Sidney was built up to be the next Wayne Gretzky and he is damn well living up to all expectations and more. He had a excellent 1st year in the NHL and is now in the running for the Best Player Award in the NHL this year. The Penguins in the East Division are a chance for the Stanley Cup especially with Sidney the young Champ.

It annoyed me last year when some media people were saying he wasn't as good as Washington Capitals Alex Ovechkin. Both these guys were stars in their 1st years. But what annoyed me was if the NHL lockout hadn't occurred Alex would have played that year and thus it would have been Alex the Best 1st year the year the lockout was in effect and then Sidney Crosby last year.

Chris Simon suspended for the rest of the season including the playoffs!
The much awaited Hockey decision was made yesterday. Chris Simon was suspended for the rest of the season including playoffs for the Crazy hit on Rangers center Ryan Hollweg. He is suspended a minimum of 25 games, 14 Islanders games are now left after he missed Saturday nights game. He would serve additional games at the start of the 2007-08 regular season to satisfy the minimum term of the suspension if the Islanders do not qualify for the 2007 playoffs, or if they play fewer than 10 upcoming possible playoff games. I wonder if Ryan Smyth a new Islander is crying again over this, probably not. I like Ryan but damn that annoyed me two weeks ago when he cried on TV then next day said he was glad to be a Islander. What a load of crap.

From Sat Mar 10 Chris Simon the New York Islander and former Calgary Flame must have said something like "You smack me into the Hockey Boards and I'll use my stick and Hurt you!"

Wow that was a mean hit! It was like a good Cricket shot, a "Pull shot" or it was nearly a "Hook shot". Chris Simon has been suspended indefinitely for the hit with his hockey stick to Rangers center Ryan Hollweg. It has been Big news in sports the last few days. If you haven't seen it here it is on YouTube.com Click here

This hit is being compared to the Marty McSorley hit on Donald Brashear from a few years ago as one of the worst ever. You can hear us talking about this as the main topic we discussed the day that I was lucky enough to be on TSN's Off The Record with Michael Landsberg.

From Moose "Recently after meeting with City of Pittsburgh officials, Primary Team Owner, Mario Lemeuix is looking for the Pens to have a new home, outside of the state of Pennsylvania. Unless the City is willing to build a new state of the art Arena, the Pens are gone, probably after this year. Both the Cities of Kansas City and Las Vegas are wooing the Pens big-time. Stay tuned, unless your a fish!

The greatest American NHL player ever, Dallas Mike Modano, who dates back with the Dallas South Stars franchise to the days of the old Minnesota North Stars just scored his 500th career goal and became the highest scoring American player in NHL history in Dallas win over San Jose.

In the Eastern Conference the following teams would make the playoffs if the season ended today: (1) Buffalo, (2) New Jersey, (3) Ottawa, (4) Tampa Bay, (5) Pittsburgh, (6) Atlanta, (7) New York Islanders, (8) Defending Stanley Cup Champion Carolina.

In the Western Conference: (1) Nashville, (2) Detroit, (3) Anaheim, (4) Dallas, (5) Vancouver, (6) Minnesota, (7) San Jose, (8) Calgary." Moose Salzer

Talking NHL Flames and Oilers on Sports Rage Sirius Hardcore radio with Gabriel Morency!
Last night I was on with Morency for the 1st time since he joined Sirius late night Hardcore radio from The Team 990 out of Montreal. It was a lot of fun. He wanted me to talk about the Flames so I went Hardcore on why they are such a bad road team. Something is drastically wrong when they play away from the Calgary Saddle dome. They are terrible. The Flames have the best home record with 27 wins yet the worst road record with 7 wins.

We also talked about the Ryan Smyth trade from the Edmonton Oilers to the New York Islanders and how one day he is crying and then the next day he says he's happy to be a Islander. What a load of crap that was. I like Ryan Smyth but if he loved it in Edmonton he should have taken their very good offer. Ryan is a very good player but he's no Jarome Iginla.

From Moose "The Stanley Cup Champions the Carolina Hurricanes acquire Anson Carter from Columbus!
The Stanley Cup Champions Carolina Hurricanes picked by winger Anson Carter who has 421 career points on 219 goals and 202 assists with the Washington Capitols, Vancouver Canucks, Blue Jackets, Boston Bruins, Edmonton Oilers and the New York Rangers. Carter, from Yonge Park off Yonge street in Toronto has yet to play for his hometown Maple Leafs. Carter didn't fit with Ken Hitchcock's Columbus Blue Jackets and there drop the puck in around the net style. The Blue Jackets still are playing well but needed more scoring and recalled several players from Albany in the American Hockey League.

Around the NHL: New Jersey still leads the Eastern Conference Atlantic Division. The Northeast Division is lead by Buffalo, who's Coach Lindy Ruff (think about that name; it fits!) got a one game suspension for getting into a fight with his Sabres players recently. In the Western Conference, the Nashville Predators lead the Central Division and Northwest Division is lead by Vancouver, one of Anson Carter's former teams, the Pacific is still lead by the Amazing Anaheim (just) Ducks. In the American Hockey League, our Norfolk Admirals still lead the League with 83 points and are: 39-15-4-1, a career best for this point in the season." Moose

Wed, Feb 21 07 NHL Update! Stanley Cup Champ Hurricanes Rod Brind'Amour gets 400th career goal! Colorado's great Joe Sakic gets his 600th!" Moose Salzer

In Carolina's 5-3 win over Montreal four nights ago, Rod Brind'Amour scored his 400th career goal late in the second period. In Colorado's win one night later, the great Joe Sakic scored his 600th career goal.

The Vancouver Canucks won their late game two nights ago v. Colorado, 5-4. Henrik Sedin, one of two Sedin brothers playing in the NHL, scored the tiebreaker with 1:31 left. Bredan Morrison added his second of the contest at: 2:20 later. (Chinese lesson: Di-Di means younger brother, just for the heck of it.) In the American Hockey League, the Norfolk Admirals still have a league high 79 points and have been wheeling and dealing with the Chicago Black Hawks, their 'Big Brother' lately but it hasn't effected their play in the negative. More next week." Moose

Mon Jan 29 07 "NHL All-star Game Review, the Game is back on track! The Norfolk Admirals are tearing up the American Hockey League! First sellout in franchise history 8,784!" Moose Salzer

Don't look now Norfolk, VA, but we may have an AHL Championship in our near future! The Admirals lead the American Hockey League with a 32-10-4-1 record! Our home record is now a League leading 23-1-2 at Scope Arena. Other Division Leaders: East: Atlantic - Manchester, Western Conference: North - Rochester, West - Chicago. Rochester is second in the League with 63 points to the Admirals 69.

Current NHL Division Leaders are: Eastern Conference: Atlantic - New Jersey, Northeast - Buffalo, Southeast, still surprising Atlanta. I expect Carolina to be back in the chase soon (R.A.S.). In the Western Conference, Central - Nashville, with their second most tenured Coach in the League, Winnipeg's Barry Trotz, Northest - Calgary, who I thought was going to the Stanley Cup last year (Michele) and Pacific - Anaheim, who probably will represent the West in the Stanley Cup unless somebody (Nashville?) can catch them (R.A.S.).

The All-star game was held on Jan. 24th in Dallas, TX. The Eastern Conference was Coached by Buffalo's Lindy Ruff and Randy Carlyle of the Anaheim (Just) Ducks Coached the Western Conference. The West won, 12-9. Ynaic Perreault of Wayne Gretzky's Phoenix Coyotes scored what turned out to be the game winner off an assist from Minnesota's Brian Rolston. They teamed up for two scores. The MVP of the Game Buffalo's Daniel Brierre with one goal and four assists. The biggest change, besides the still new rules is the new uniforms worn by both Conference clubs teams.

In the last All-star game, held in 2004, the longtime Quebec/Colorado Av Joe Sakic was the M.V.P. Sakic is now in his 18th NHL season and this was his 12th straight all-star game, four off the record (Gordie HowE Mr. Hockey played in 23, but seven were in the defunct WHA). New Jersey's Martin Broduer, arguably the best goalie in the NHL today, allowed 6 scores in 16 shots in 2 periods. Boston Defenceman Zdeno Chara (Slovakia) became the tallest Pro Hockey all-star ever when he skated out on the ice. He stands 6'9". The tow most exciting players in the game were youngsters Sid Crosby (Canada) and Al Ovechkin (US-Russia)." Moose

Wed, Jan 24 07 "NHL Update! Division Leaders and how difficult it will be for the Carolina Hurricanes to repeat! " Moose Salzer

Eastern Conference Division Leaders: Southeast: Atlanta, Northeast: Buffalo, Western Conference: Central: Nashville, Northeast: Vancouver, Pacific: Anaheim Ducks or as I like to call 'Em, 'Those Darn Disney Ducks'. Nashville leads the League with 71 points (remember; Two points for a win, one point for overtime loss or shootout loss.) Second is Buffalo with 70. I will say here what I said about this time last year; Look out for Coach Lindy Ruff's Buffalo Sabres! This team is big, strong, fast and tough. It'll be darn difficult for the Carolina Hurricanes to match last year's Miracle season. Almost impossible.

The last two years, surprisingly, the Stanley Cup has been won by two American Teams with two American Coaches, of which I am proud to say, I am a contributor to USA Hockey, the Olympic Association in Colorado, who sent me a nice bronze puck with my name on it. A replica is in place at the Olympic training building in Colorado." Moose

Pro and Minor League Hockey Update. Hockey has a very fine and long history in the Virginia Beach, Norfolk and Chesapeake, VA area, in several different Leagues. Despite a lack of booming Zamboni Technology here, the first Tidewater Area team was a Red Wings affiliate known as the Tidewater Wings, in 1971-72. Later, their leading scorer, Robbie Ftorek became an AHL and later NHL Coach. He was one of Wayne (Genius) Gretzky's Coaches in Los Angeles w/ the Kings. In 1974 the area's Hockey team became the Hampton Gulls of the Southeastern Hockey League. They later moved to San Diego and died there last June, '05. They began under a very familiar named Coach, John Brophy, who is currently Coaching Richmond, VA in the ECHL. Brophy later coached our Hampton Roads Admirals to three Jack Riley Cups and even coached the Toronto Maple Leafs in the late '80's. Brophy's 15-28-3 mark would be his only losing record of his career. A banner hangs from the rafters in the soon-to-be-remodeled Scope area of Norfolk, VA where our AHL Admirals currently play.

From 1978-81 the Atlantic Coast Hockey League (ACHL)'s Hampton Roads Aces played @ Scope Arena, home of the former Norfolk Nighthawks of the Af2. Current Tampa Bay Coach John Torterella played for both the Hampton Roads team and the former Roanoke Express (who once owned the Af2's Roanoke Steam). Five years later the ACHL merged with the East Coast (now just ECHL) League.

NHL - Tidewater, VA Connection - Recently the Chicago Blackhawks fired former six-year Norfolk Admirals, AHL Coach, Trent Yawney, a resident in the offseason of Regina, Saskatchewan. Yawney had our Admirals in the playoffs six years in a row. This year the AHL Admirals have had no less than the third best record in the League all season but still have trouble with the teams from Pennsylvania. They must keep up the pace to have a chance to win with the prestigious Calder Cup at the end of the year. Good Luck Admirals!" Michelle
