Garts Comes Home
On about a dozen occasions the past couple of years I’ve been able to listen in on conference calls arranged by the Caps with prominent members of the hockey community. Generally there are a couple of bloggers participating in the calls, and at least a half dozen members of the traditional media. I enjoy listening to all of the questions asked, and their answers. The press, it seems to me, makes a fairly limited range of inquiries of any given hockey figure, whereas the bloggers seem to bring a special spirit of inquiry to the exercise, one that’s expansive and creative and a bit outside to proverbial box.

During The Hotstove on last night’s Hockey Night in Canada’s broadcast, another rumour surfaced concerning the Washington Capitals. Per Al Strachan, “Washington is, indeed, asking around about goalies”. Adding more fuel to the fire was Scott Morrison who said that earlier in the year the Caps had a deal in place with Chicago. The particulars? Nylander and a pick for … Continue reading
The Zambonis on CNN
In May of this year, I got to meet Dave Zamboni of North America’s favorite All-Hockey Band The Zambonis. Never mind the fact that Dave is a really cool guy — he has a collection of hockey organs, I mean how cool is that — Continue reading
