Potential Future Winter Classic Match-Ups?

Posted by admin on 3rd, 2009

So far we’ve seen the Pittsburgh Penguins face off against the Buffalo Sabres and the Detroit Red Wings take on the Chicago Blackhawks.  Now that the 2009 Winter Classic is over with, fans are left wondering;

Who could be potential future match-ups?

Before you can really start to make a list you need to think about what goes in to a good Winter Classic game.

Rivalry is the most important feature in my opinion.  Having 2 rival teams going against each other in the cold out doors seems allmost… fitting.

How about “old Vs new”?

I would love to see a match-up between the Dallas Stars and their old home-town “new team” Minnesota Wild.  While these 2 teams may not have a rivalry, this game would provide plenty of excitement for fans.

So here’s my list of top 5 Winter Classic games i would like to see.

  1. Dallas Stars @ Minnesota Wild.  This gets #1 for 2 reason; 1) i’m slightly biased being a Stars fan, but more importantly 2) because up in Minnesota people still talk about how the Stars turned their back on the fans.  Crazy i know, but for fans, this game could be huge.
  2. Montreal Canadiens @ Toronto Maple Leafs.  Is there a bigger rivalry?
  3. Washington Capitals @ New York Rangers.  The Winter Classic has seen Sid the kid, now it’s time to introduce it to Ovy.
  4. New York Rangers @ Boston Bruins.  A classic match-up if there ever was one.
  5. Philadelphia Flyers @ Pittsburgh Penguins.  The battle of Pensylvania.

Gary Bettman and the NHL seem keen on focussing on the US teams for the Winter Classic, possibly in a hope to increase ratings within the US.  While I understand the logic here, i do disagree with it.  The Habs Vs Leafs game would be fantastic to watch, even for fans of other teams.

Avery Alert: With so much news surrounding the Sean Avery situation, our new section “Avery Alert” will bring you all the news comments you need in one handy location.  Don’t worry though, this section will only last a short time and will stop once we all get sick off hearing about Avery.

  • Avery to meet with Bettman and the NHL Thursday.
    The date of the hearing has been set; this Thursday.  Avery will travel to New York to face the NHL.  Stars co-GM Brett Hull is said to be traveling with Avery.  (The Full Story on TSN)
  • No Way Out For Avery
    Ross McKeon of Yahoo! Sports breaks down the Avery situation and explains that there may be no way for Avery to come out of this in a good position. (The Full Story on Yahoo)
  • Avery Apologises to NHL, Team, Ex’s
    Avery’s publicist wasted no time in drafting a well written apology.  (The Full Story on Yahoo)
  • NHL Suspends Avery Indefinitely
    After making the “sloppy seconds” comment, the NHL quickly jumped in and indefinitely suspended the agitator. (The Full Story on TSN)

News

  • Fan injured in fall at Senators game
    A male fan was injured at Scotiabank Place on Wednesday during the Ottawa Senators’ 5-1 victory over the Atlanta Thrashers after falling from the top level of the arena.  The man, who Senators president Roy Mlakar stated was not inebriated, originally fell over in row D of the 300 level. He then plummeted into row D of the 200 level, falling on a woman who also sustained injuries.  Mlakar believes the man was not seriously hurt. (The Full Story on Yahoo)
  • Canes Sack Peter Laviolette
    Carolina fired Peter Laviolette on Wednesday. The Hurricanes brought back Paul Maurice to take over as coach, and moved assistant general manager Ron Francis behind the bench as Maurice’s associate coach. Laviolette led the team to the 2006 Stanley Cup title. He’s the career victory leader among U.S.-born coaches.

Trades & Transactions:

  • Anaheim acquired defenseman Logan Stephenson from Phoenix on Wednesday for left wing Joakim Lindstrom. Stephenson will report to Iowa of the AHL.

Injuries:

  • Brian Rolston (NJ Devils) – Expected back thursday.
  • Joe Sakic (C – Avalanche) Expected to miss 6 weeks.
  • Marian Gaborik (Wild) Not yet ready to return.

Rumours & Gossip:

  • What to do with Avery?
    Rumours are ripe that Avery has played his last game in a Stars jersey.  If that’s the case, there are a few options the team has, which include: Demoting him to the minors, buying out his contract, looking for a trade, or going through legal channals to void his contract.  Either way, if it’s true that Avery is on the out, this could mean a very positive thing for the team.
  • Havlat on the block?
    After recent changes which ended up with Martin Havlat being demoted to the teams 3rd line, speculation suggests the Hawks could be looking to move him at some stage.

Scores:

  • Pittsburgh Penguins 2 – 3 NY Rangers (Shootout)
  • Atlanta Thrashers 1 – 5 Ottawa Senators
  • St Louis Blues 0 – 4 Minnesota Wild
  • Anaheim Ducks 2 – 4 Chicago Blackhawks

NHLPA files unfair labor practice charge

  • NEW YORK (AP)—The NHL players’ association on Tuesday filed an unfair labor practice charge with the National Labor Relations Board regarding negotiations with clubs over European player releases.

    The latest move by the union followed notification that it lost a grievance challenging the NHL’s institution of defected player status on drafted and unsigned European players.

    That came about because of a lack of an International Ice Hockey Federation transfer agreement between the NHL and hockey federations in some European countries.

    The filing of the charge with the NLRB was confirmed by union spokesman Jonathan Weatherdon. The NHLPA declined to comment further because of the ongoing legal matter.

    The New York Post first reported the union’s action Tuesday on its Web site.

    In the last collective bargaining agreement between the NHL and the players’ association, the union fought for European players to have the same rights as their North American counterparts.

    The union’s loss of the grievance gives teams permanent rights to these European players as long as there is a lack of an IIHF transfer agreement between the NHL and international hockey federations. The NHLPA is trying to avoid reverting to a time when the NHL controlled the rights of European players forever.

    The charge by the players’ association against the NHL said: “Since on or about June 26, 2008, (the NHL) has failed and refused to bargain with the NHLPA over a mandatory subject of bargaining by unilaterally implementing a rule substantially modifying and restricting the manner in which players under contract to European Clubs may gain employment (in the NHL), without first providing notice to, or bargaining to agreement or good-faith impasse with the NHLPA,” the New York Post reported.

    Testimony by NHL deputy commissioner Bill Daly was crucial in the NHLPA losing its grievance. Daly and former union executive director Ted Saskin agreed in a letter on July 22, 2005, to temporarily adopt defected player status for Europeans since an IIHF transfer agreement wasn’t in place.

    That agreement expired and the union didn’t want to extend it, but the NHL sent a memo on May 19 to the 30 general managers to advise them that it was putting the defected players status back in effect, the Post said.

Devils lose Brodeur

  • Martin Brodeur will have to wait longer to break the NHL records after tearing a distal biceps in his left elbow last weekend.  He will be out for 3-4 months.  He will undergo surgery Thursday.

Trotting Along

  • Barry Trotz coached his 750th game, all with Nashville, becoming the 31st NHL coach to reach that milestone and just the 10th to do so with the same team.

oh, they’re hurt:

  • Martin Brodeur (Devils): out 3-4 months with torn distal biceps.

He shoots… the scores:

  • New York Islanders 2 – 1 New York Rangeres
  • Carolina Hurricanes 5 – 4 Toronto Maple Leafs (Overtime)
  • Ottawa Senators 2 – 1 Washington Capitals (Overtime)
  • Vancouver Canucks 4 – 0 Nashville Predators
  • Phoenix Coyotes 4 – 2 Calgary Flames
  • Anaheim Ducks 2 – 1 Los Angeles Kings (Overtime)
  • San Jose Sharks 3 – 1 Minnesota Wild

Breaking News:

  • Investigator: Hockey player had heart problems
    Alexei Cherepanov had heart problems and probably should not have been allowed to play in a game in which he collapsed and died, a regional investigator suggested Tuesday.

    Yulia Zhukova said Cherepanov, who died Monday playing for Avangard Omsk in a Continental Hockey League game outside of Moscow, apparently had chronic ischemia—a medical condition when not enough blood gets to the heart or other organs.

    “Checks will be conducted to clarify, in particular, why the sportsman with such an illness went onto the ice,” Zhukova said. (Read the full article)

    Radulov wrote the letter to KHL president Alexander Medvedev possibly to end some mixed signals on whether he wanted to return to the NHL. (read the full article)

Trades & Rumours:

From spectorshockey.net (click to view the full report):

  • TIMES ONLINE.COM: Mark Madden reports the Pittsburgh Penguins lack quality wingers for Sidney Crosby’s line and suggests Penguins management should shop center Jordan Staal “sooner, not later”. Madden raises the possibility of Staal perhaps seeing if he’ll receive a lucrative, unmatchable offer sheet from a rival club where he can play as a center rather than a winger, and suggests currently there’s “zero indication” that Staal will re-sign prior to next summer with the Penguins.

  • VANCOUVER PROVINCE: Jason Botchford reports there’s been a lull in negotiations between Canucks GM Mike Gillis and the agent for the Sedin twins. They are seeking a “no-trade” clause in their new contracts but Botchford suggests they might be willing to give Gillis some wiggle room by seeking a “no-separation” clause, meaning if they’re to be traded they’d be dealt together to the same team. Botchford also reported the Canucks lost blueline speed when Kevin Bieksa went down to a recent injury, forcing them to dress slower defensemen Shane O’Brien and Rob Davison. “When the back end is completely healthy, it’s unlikely both will play in the same game with any degree of regularity” writes Botchford, adding, “So much for those who want Kevin Bieksa traded.”
  • TORONTO SUN: reports Maple Leafs GM Cliff Fletcher denies internet rumors claiming he’s been talking with the Phoenix Coyotes about acquiring first round picks or that defenseman Ian White might be dealt to the Coyotes.
  • DENVER POST: Terry Frei reports Colorado Avalanche goalie Peter Budaj must step up his performance to sew up the starting goaltender role with the club. Frei writes the Avs have little choice but to ride out Budaj for a long as possible in part because of their public committment to him and the reality that backup Andrew Raycroft would have to flash back five years to retreive the form of his only elite NHL season. Frei raises the possibility of a trade and the name of Chicago Blackhawks goalie Nikolai Khabibulin.

  • MLIVE.COM: Ansar Khan reports Detroit Red Wings GM Ken Holland was working the phones trying to move a defenseman prior to the 3 PM deadline on Wednesday to submit final rosters to the league and be salary cap compliant. An NHL source claims Holland is shopping defenseman Kyle Quincey .
  • THE TENNESSEAN: John Glennon reports Nashville Predators GM David Poile would like to trim his roster to 22 to leave a spot open to pluck a player off waivers or acquire one via trade.
  • RALEIGH NEWS & OBSERVER: Chip Alexander reports the Carolina Hurricanes management are considering their options which could include trading for a top line winger, although GM Jim Rutherford said he wouldn’t make a trade just for the sake of doing so.
  • VANCOUVER PROVINCE: Jason Botchford reports Canucks GM Mike Gillis might wait until Wednesday’s waiver wire deadline to make his final cuts, not wishing to lose any more players via waivers after defenseman Norm McIver was plucked off waivers by the Anaheim Ducks.
