nuckin_futz Posted November 15, 2023 Author Share Posted November 15, 2023 "The intimidation factor was real, too. We went to Toronto one year and Pat Burns brought this guy up named Frank Bialowas from the minors. It’s all over the paper that the fight card had been set. So in the morning skate, I go over to their bench. I’ve got no shirt on, and I’m taping my stick on their bench and I’m drinking their water. Nobody said a word. I fought Frank that night, and he didn’t last long in the NHL." – Tony Twist 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Sophomore Jinx Posted December 5, 2023 Popular Post Share Posted December 5, 2023 Worlds largest hockey stick (donated by Tyler Myers) B.C. community prepares to stickhandle removal of world's largest hockey stick DUNCAN, B.C. — Vancouver Island's Cowichan Valley Regional District wants to know who is willing to take a shot at owning the world's largest hockey stick. It says the more than 62-metre wooden stick and puck that has been attached to the east side of the Cowichan Community Centre in Duncan for the past 35 years needs more than a new tape job. The regional district says the glue structure holding the giant Douglas fir replica stick together has decayed and must be removed to protect public safety. The district says a public survey about the future of the stick found few respondents calling for efforts to repair or replace the prominent landmark, which was originally constructed for Expo 86 in Vancouver. The district says its goal now is to seek expressions of interest from community organizations or individuals looking to make use of a large hockey stick. Tom Duncan, the acting chair of the Cowichan Core Recreation Commission, says in a statement that the stick has been a community icon for decades, but he's excited to see where it will play next. This report by The Canadian Press was first published Dec. 4, 2023. The Canadian Press 1 2 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post nuckin_futz Posted December 15, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted December 15, 2023 Pat Quinn went to a Boston bar after knocking out Bobby Orr in a game… For a moment, Quinn had forgotten where he was and what he had done the night before, and he thought it might be his final mistake. Quinn was a rookie with the Toronto Maple Leafs, and death threats or no death threats, was expected to fetch the beer for the bus ride. He did what was expected. Down the street from the Garden, a sportsbar was overflowing with Bruin fans, hard-nosed Bostonians who had been at the game and been angry the great Orr had not played. And the man responsible stepped through the front door - through their front door and into their bar. Quinn edged through the crowd toward the bartender when a shout came from behind him. “Hey, it’s Quinn! It’s Quinn!” The big rookie froze. How could he have been so stupid, so careless? He looked for an escape route. No chance. People were wedged six deep around him. In the tense silence, he waited for the first fist, or bottle or worse. A hand came at him, but instead of going for Quinn’s granite jaw, landed squarely on his back. Then another. “Nice hit, Patty boy. Nice hit.” The men around him smiled, and Quinn felt blessed to be Irish-Catholic in an Irish-Catholic town. “On the house,” the bartender said.

nuckin_futz Posted January 26 Author Share Posted January 26 "So I was in the locker room one day and Risto was a rookie and I was taping my stick. He comes up behind me with his jock and he puts it right in my face and i was thrown off guard so I chase him down and I reach him in the stick room. I go full on WWE wrestler and throw a choke hold on him and everything's fun and games and I think I'm not trying to hurt him until I feel his whole body going limp and I choked him out unconscious in the stick room. He was the first rounder where like the team put all the eggs in Risto's basket and I think he was a top five pick and I'm just like 'oh my gosh i just choked out the sabres first round pick'. He's laying on the floor in the stick room like choking on his tongue and I'm starting to get nervous so i rolled him on his side so he wasn't choking on his tongue and he came to seven seconds later He woke up and he was like shocked, he was like 'whoa' because he was only an 18 year old 19 year old kid and here I am this goon choking him out in the stick room it was definitely a very scary situation but it was also a learning situation for Risto" - John Scott Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
