from Jim Matheson of the Edmonton Journal via Faceoff.com, At the 2002 Olympics in Salt Lake City, Team Canada trainers were draining his aching right knee of fluid and shooting the leg full of painkiller so he could get his skates on, never mind race up and down the ice. He wanted to play, so he did, but it was agony, at times, after his knee was scoped three weeks before the tournament. “I...

from Elliotte Friedman of CBC, 1. Steve Yzerman meets with his Olympic selection committee – Holland, Doug Armstrong, Kevin Lowe – this week. I don’t understand how anyone not named Marc-Andre Fleury could be Canada’s starting goaltender. He deserves the first chance to play. 2. Ken Holland told The Calgary Herald he will propose banning hits to the head from the blind side....

Between the five, their names are inscribed on the Stanley Cup 11 times. For the past two decades, these greats have left their mark. Also...

When Steve Yzerman and Hockey Canada get around to naming that final Team Canada roster for the 2010 Olympics, we may not be too surprised to see Ryan Smyth's name on the line up cards. Smyth , who has performed yeoman like for Canada over the years, was probably considered to be on that sharp line between roster status and thanks for coming platitudes, his years starting to add up it may have been...

from Michael Farber of Sports Illustrated, Mark Messier’s title with the New York Rangers is Special Assistant to the President, one of those felicitous-sounding designations that could mean almost anything. The widespread guess it best translates to “GM general in waiting.” The assumption is Blueshirts president Glen Sather will muddle on for the next few years, show Messier the...

Yes, the most offensively magical Blackhawk is hopping over the boards on the most thankless unit. What gives? Here’s what gives: This is Kane’s career at a crossroads.

from Michael Farber of Sports Illustrated, The NHL alphabet used to begin with the letter C. There was no role on a team as sacrosanct as captain. There was no responsibility, on the ice and off, that carried so much honor or weight.
