<span style="font-size: large;"><b>Golden Knights Doin' it Right...</b></span><br />
<br />
I thought I'd check out the <b>Las Vegas Golden Knights</b> website just to see what's what with the NHL's newest hockey team. I was pleasantly surprised to learn the Knights made special transportation arrangements for their fans...meet the <b>Golden Knights Express bus</b>.<br />
<br />
For only four dollars, return, hockey fans from outlying areas of Las Vegas have a fun and safe ride to the Knights home games this season thanks to a partnership with Las Vegas Regional Transit (you can read all about it...link to story below) <br />
<br />
I call that doin' it right. You see, just over ten years ago, I was at another <b>NHL city</b> in the desert, <b>Phoenix, Arizona</b>. I was in town for some fun and a hockey game. The day before that game, we visited the<b> Yotes </b>arena (it was called jobbing.com Arena in those days) for a tour. I had a rental car for the loooooong drive to Glendale, the arena's location. During the tour I asked the sales rep if they had special transportation for fans due to the location and the whole, "if you build it, the fans will come mentality" Nope..they didn't, and as far as I can tell, they still don't! I couldn't believe it back then, the arena was so beautiful and new, yet starving for ticket buying fans. The rep even told me how many of their fans lived in Scottsdale. <b>SCOTTSDALE???</b> I yelled. Literally, I yelled and said, WHY DON"T YOU BUS THEM IN????<br />
<br />
Just think, if the Coyotes managed to pull off what the Knights have done with organizing transportation and making it as easy as possible for fans to actually attend games, they maybe could have avoided at least some of the hell they have endured over the years. <b>GO KNIGHTS!!!</b><br />

Recently inducted <b>Hockey Hall of Famer, Paul Kariya </b>met a special fan during the HHoF events last weekend.<br />
<br />
<b>Michelle Blackburn</b> traveled to the induction event so she could both congratulate her fave player, and thank him in person for an inspirational letter he wrote to her as she was grappling with a breast cancer diagnosis back in 2010. Michelle has also done some serious fundraising for the fight against breast cancer. She's also from my mom's hometown, Thunder Bay, Ontario, so a big shout out to Michelle. Below is the link so you can read all about her story. <b>GO MICHELLE!!

Season three of <b>Rogers Hometown Hockey</b> broadcast will include a stop in <b>Nanaimo, BC</b> on <b>Vancouver Island</b>...my hometown! Okay...my other hometown, <b>Vancouver</b>, <b>BC</b> is also a stop on the Hometown Hockey tour during the 2016/17 NHL season. However, I must give special congratulations to <b>Nanaimo</b>, a small island town forever living in the shadow of <b> BC's capital city, Victoria</b>, also located on Vancouver Island. Hooray, <b>Nanaimo</b>!<br />
<br />
I moved to Nanaimo from the mainland when I was just four years old, living there all the way up to attending the local university before moving away to take on the rest of the world. Often, when I was in Vancouver, people would ask me where I was from and the conversation usually went like this...<br />
<br />
<b>Vancouver person</b>: Where are you from?<br />
<b>Lisa:</b> The Island!<br />
<b>Vancouver person </b>(smiling): Victoria? It's so nice there...<br />
<b>Lisa: </b>No, Nanaimo!<br />
<b>Vancouver person:</b> Oh. <br />
<br />
Well, Victoria...its going to be all about Nanaimo this hockey season, and, of course, the other 23 Canadian communities selected to host the the traveling hockey show. Woot!<br />
<br />
For American readers of this blog, allow me to explain what the show is all about:<br />

<b>Rogers Sportnet</b> launched <a href="http://www.hometownhockey.com/" target="_blank"><b>Hometown Hockey</b></a> during the 2014/15 NHL hockey season as a means to connect with hockey crazy towns in Canada, from sea to shining sea. <b>The Rogers mobile studio truck </b>pulls into the hometown to broadcast a Sunday, prime time <b>NHL game</b>, as well as featuring the hometown's local hockey scene. The hometown plans the event to include a whole weekend's worth of activities leading up the NHL game broadcast. Basically, think <b>Hockey Day in America</b>, but, because this is Canada, Imagine every weekend is <b>Hockey Day in America!</b><br />
<br />
This must be in the cards for me because one of the NHL teams on the schedule for Nanaimo's stop is the <b>Florida Panthers</b>! Wow...I had a work visa in <b>South Florida</b> for several years - the Panthers became my hometown team there! On Sunday, February 26th, 2017, 7:00 pm, Eastern time, The Panthers will be playing the <b>Ottawa Senators</b>, and, during the game's broadcast, my hometown of Nanaimo will become the backdrop for the entire evening. The even crazier part...<b>Hockey and High Heels </b>headquarters are currently located in Nanaimo right now!<br />
<br />
I'm looking forward to covering this event as we lead up to the big weekend in late February, 2017.<br />

Look what arrived in the mail...a beautiful, handcrafted, paracord <b>Vancouver Canucks bracelet </b>courtesy of my awesome hockey friend, Marie in Nashville!! Marie ordered it online from <b><a href="http://handmadebyheroes.com/">Handmadebyheroes.com</a></b>. The heroes also produce a bevy of other bracelets, along with key chains and lanyards. The collections include <b><a href="https://handmadebyheroes.com/collections/nhl" target="_blank">NHL</a></b>, <b><a href="https://handmadebyheroes.com/collections/nfl-paracord-bracelets" target="_blank">NFL</a></b>, <b><a href="https://handmadebyheroes.com/collections/mlb-teams-paracord-bracelets" target="_blank">MLB</a></b> and <a href="https://handmadebyheroes.com/collections/ncaa-teams" target="_blank"><b>NCAA</b></a> teams to cover sports enthusiasts.

The clasp is fantastic... not only is it a stunning piece of hardware, but I can easily put it on without assistance - such an important feature for anyone who has difficulty managing bracelets. The website has a video for helping shoppers determine their sizing needs.<br />
<br />
I think every NHL hockey fan should get one of these bracelets. Not only are they beautiful, the sale of each bracelet means a <b>veteran earns money</b>. As per their website, <a href="http://handmadebyheroes.com/">handmadebyheroes.com</a>...<br />

It was one year ago today that hockey writer, <b>Jan Snyder</b> passed away. Tonight, Jan's hometown team, the<b> Pittsburgh Penguins</b> begin their season on the road in Dallas, and I can imagine Jan's spirit will be right their with them, helping to kick off this year's quest for the Stanley Cup.<br />
<br />
My friendship with Jan was a double blessing. I cherish all the fun we had sharing our passion for this great game. Plus, I was so fortunate when she jumped on board to become a contributing writer for my website, Hockeyandhighheels.com. For over six years, Jan brilliantly covered all things Penguins, along with conducting some fascinating interviews with a variety of hockey celebrities. She was a consummate professional, teaching me so much about EVERYTHING.<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq16cwURONA9tzz9tHoBWE6d2sl0u5A8OKWxvUoMUhcDWlLt-4vut_bMtfcE3-tUZB-H0BI5ZxX36Sqm61rysIIo8nqhb3OgIth0yPKT-Ywjw70GtsUHYlkHTRT4-PHWSgIMivfh13nq3l/s1600/jans_pens_banner_two.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhq16cwURONA9tzz9tHoBWE6d2sl0u5A8OKWxvUoMUhcDWlLt-4vut_bMtfcE3-tUZB-H0BI5ZxX36Sqm61rysIIo8nqhb3OgIth0yPKT-Ywjw70GtsUHYlkHTRT4-PHWSgIMivfh13nq3l/s1600/jans_pens_banner_two.jpg" /></a></div>
<br />
Jan was my fabulous, long distance hockey friend. We spent countless hours talking on the phone: with me in Vancouver, Canada and Jan in Houston,Texas, our conversations drifting from hockey to life in general and back again. We actually only met in person, twice... <br />
<br />
What an awesome coincidence that she had a conference in Vancouver exactly one day before the Canucks were to play Game Seven against the Dallas Stars during the 2007 Stanley Cup Playoffs, and I had tickets. That was a loud and crazy night in Rogers Arena, but I do remember Jan yelling, "I've never been to a Game Seven of Anything!!!" With so much hockey/sports in her life, I had a hard time believing that!<br />
<br />
Our second meeting took place about six months later. I took the above photo of Jan while we were shopping for Pens merchandise in Pittsburgh when I was appearing at a Hockey and Heels event with the Pittsburgh Penguins. She flew in to support me at the event, graciously showed me around the city, and I was also lucky that she introduced me to her wonderful sister, Kim, daughter, Jen and son- in-law, Jim. What a terrific family!<br />

Even though Jan was a displaced Pittsburgh-er living in Houston, she always managed to fly home to catch the big games with her family whenever she could, including <a href="http://lisashockeylounge.blogspot.ca/2011/01/2011-winter-classic-firsthand-account.html" target="_blank">the Winter Classic at Heinz Field</a>. Of course, once little grandson, Ethan was born, she had an even better reason to fly home!<br />
<br />
She didn't limit her hockey travels to Pittsburgh: Jan traveled to several NHL All Star games over the years and even braved the elements in 2003 at the historic Heritage Classic outdoor game in Edmonton, Alberta. She was my hockey hero.<br />
<br />
I still can't believe she is gone. I get choked up from time to time thinking about her. If I ever I was going through a tough time, Jan was always just a warm, comforting phone call away. She always had the most encouraging words no matter what the situation. <i>I am always going to miss you Jan</i>. <br />
<br />
The Pens and Stars game is about to start, so, I should sign off and put on my Penguins shirt. Jan's sister, Kim emailed suggesting all friends and family don the Black and Gold today to celebrate our dear, Jan.<br />
<br />
She truly is one of hockey's greatest gifts.<br />
<br />
<br />
Go Pens, Go Jan!!<br />

Over the last few days there has been a lot of chatter regarding ticket sales for the <b><a href="http://canucks.nhl.com/club/page.htm?id=39584" target="_blank">Tim Horton's Heritage Classic Hockey Game in Vancouver</a></b> featuring the <b>Ottawa Senators</b> and the <b>Vancouver Canucks</b>. So much so, that I can hear it all the way down here in Florida! First of all, I would love to be at this game if I could. Just look at this artist's rendering of the affair...<br />

It's a spectacle, people! The recent attendance worries expressed in news articles from around the hockey world reminds me of something I have said before about Vancouver, and will say again...<br />
<br />
Vancouver is a last minute kind of city. People always seem to make plans for what they are going to do, right before they have to do it. I've done it, everyone I know has done it. RSVP's seem to flood in right at the deadline. Remember Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics? The world's media was totally second guessing us Vancouverites and our apparent lack of interest in the games leading up to the big opening day. But, we were like, "Okay, Feb.12th is tomorrow, time to bust out the Red and White," And, what did we do? We showed up...BIG TIME, just <b>"givener"</b> for 16 days straight! So, it's quite possible, this game is going to come together at the last minute, NHL event planners...don't despair!<br />
<br />
I have yet to take in an event since <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/british-columbia/bc-place-re-opens-after-563m-renovation-1.1001910" target="_blank">BC Place was remodeled and re-opened</a> back in the Fall of 2011 (that's my own fault). Man, if ever there was an event to attend for Ms. <a href="http://hockeyandhighheels.com/">Hockeyandhighheels.com</a>, it would be this one. I am comforted knowing, my cousin, Jennifer will be there reporting back to me as the day unfolds on Sunday, March 2nd, 2014. One thing that I am super happy about: this event will be broadcast on <i><b><a href="http://www.nbcsports.com/nhl/nhl-outdoors-games" target="_blank">NBC Sports Network</a>:</b></i> Hooray for temporarily displaced Canadians like me and all of the US Hockey fanatics intent on completing the entire <a href="http://www.nbcsports.com/nhl/nhl-outdoors-games" target="_blank">Stadium Series</a> on TV!<br />
<br />
Although it appears NHL event organizers are experiencing some difficulty getting people inside BC Place for the game, they are certainly making it easy for hockey fans to check out the free festival outside of the dome. Seven words...<br />
<br />
<b>Olympic gold medal-winning National Women's Team!!</b> Yes, members of Team Canada's kick ass women's hockey team will on hand to chat about <a href="http://www.ctvnews.ca/sochi/women-s-hockey-gold-creates-more-buzz-than-men-s-semi-final-win-at-sochi-olympics-1.1699094" target="_blank"><b>THAT AMAZING GAME</b></a> and other stuff, plus sign autographs during the hockey Festival that will take place between 9am and 1pm in the parking lot outside of<b> Plaza of Nations</b> which is right across the street from <b>BC Place</b>. This festival is actually called the <b>Canadian Tire NHL Spectator Plaza</b>, because, technically speaking, you can't have <b><a href="http://www.timhortons.com/ca/en/index.html" target="_blank">Tim Horton's</a> </b>without <a href="http://www.canadiantire.ca/en.html" target="_blank">Canadian Tire</a> lurking around close by.<br />
<br />
Yes, there will be a Beer Garden (hockey and beer...a marriage made in heaven, I always say) sponsored by <b>Molson's</b>, nothing shocking about that, eh? And, there is also nothing shocking about an appearance by the <a href="http://canucks.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=705830" target="_blank">Vancouver Canucks Team circa 1993-94</a> - those perennial hockey darlings responsible for our second appearance in the <b>Stanley Cup Final</b>, and the closest Canucks fans have ever come to winning a Stanley Cup. God love that team!!!<br />
<br />
But, most of all, this event truly does celebrate the history of Hockey in Canada, and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vancouver_Millionaires" target="_blank"><b>Vancouver</b></a> in particular. So much hockey has been played in this fair weather town long before the <b>Rink on Renfrew, The Garage </b>and whatever <b>Rogers Arena </b>is now nicknamed<b>...</b>another<b> Phone Booth?</b><br />
<br />
So, it does sadden me a little when I read the comments and opinions out there in hockey cyber space; the ones that are dismissing this game simply on the grounds of the current NHL standings of the Sens and the Nucks, or the other ones throwing the evil side eye because they are card carrying members of the "That's Not a Hockey Rivalry" Debating Team. It's times like these that I wish the pure love of hockey could transcend all the bullshit! <br />
<br />
Well, that's my two cents on what's going on in my hometown. Here's a Go Canucks Go for the boys this weekend! And here's hoping for the NHL's sake that on March 1st the peeps in Vancouver are like, "Hey, tomorrow's the 2nd...where's my Millionaire's jersey...dudes and dudettes...we gotta go!"L.A.

Well, well, well; it's been far too long since I posted here at<b> Lisa's Lounge</b>. Although I have been quite busy, writing thousands of words, unfortunately, not one of those words had anything to do with hockey. I had to put my hockey musings on hold in order to write another person's book. That book has been my biggest ghost writing project to date, and it was an honor to write it. I am pleased to report the book is "in the can", so to speak!<br />
<br />
Now, I sit in front of the TV, watching the <b>Winter Classic Alumni Game</b> on <b>NBC Sports Network</b>. The first thing that caught my attention was hearing the awesome voice of Jim Hughson from <i><b>Hockey Night in Canada</b></i>! Living in Florida, well, that isn't something I hear every day, and boy, it was music to my ears and my soul.<br />
<br />
My plans for 2014 definitely include a return to my beloved hockey, and continue to share my thoughts and experiences with the game right here at <b>Lisa's Lounge</b>. But, for now, as it is New Year's Eve, I should finish watching the Alumni Game and enjoy this personal thrill of my return to hockey!<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: large;"><i><b>Happy Hockey and Happy New Year Everyone!</b></i></span><br />

<br />
It's safe to say not every birthday can be "The. Best. Birthday. Ever." I for one have had fantastic B-Day celebrations (like the one I just had on Sunday), as well as unspectacular ones. One time, I was laid off from a job on my birthday. The first two birthdays after my mother passed away were also very difficult. <br />
<br />
Today is Canucks' goal tender, Roberto Luongo's 34th birthday. Here's hoping he has a nice day and eats some delicious cake. Here's hoping he can accept being shackled by that miserable contract of his for a little while longer. <br />
<br />
If it makes Luongo feel any better, many Canuck fans feel just as imprisoned by his contract as he does.<br />
<br />
I'm sure Luongo knows the goal tending position in Vancouver has been a subject of controversy for many years. Having been nicknamed "The Goalie Graveyard" in the past, the Canucks for some reason, just can't get it right when it comes to net-minders.<br />
<br />
The Canucks actually made Luongo team captain in the fall of 2008. Who the heck makes a goalie a captain at the NHL level? Isn't that only legal in beer leagues? I thought the Canucks had officially lost their collective minds when they pulled that one out of the hat. But they didn't stop there: a year later they gave a 12 year, $64 million dollar contract to Luongo, subsequently upping the ante at the ca-razy decisions table.<br />
<br />
So, Roberto, do as you say....collect yourself and your thoughts and focus on your job as goal tender, giving 100% of yourself to the Canucks and the fans. Somehow this mess will sort itself out. And don't forget to enjoy your cake!<br />

<br />
I didn't think this season would happen. I honestly did not expect the <b>NHL Lockout </b>to end in time for a mini season. Back in September, I put all things Lockout related on the back burner because I have begun work on my third hockey book. Aside from the occasional hockey talk with my friend, Marie in Nashville and my friend, Jan in Houston, I've kept things pretty quiet here in the lounge.<br />
<br />
I didn't know how I would react to seeing the opening day action on television today. Naturally, I was completely against the lockout. I felt <b>the owners and the players </b>were really pushing their luck this time around.<br />
<br />
Looking back to 2004, the game sorely needed the lockout. As tough as it was to deal with back then, there were so many issues on and off the ice, the Hockey men needed to sit out that year and get everything in order.<br />
<br />
But in 2012, they didn't need this break. Much of the game was doing just fine.They should have made it a goal to hammer out the deal by summer's end. I was pissed. That's another reason why I hung up my skates, and turned the other cheek on the hockey world back in September: I was pissed off!<br />
<br />
So, about 1.5 hours ago I turned on the TV to <i><b>NBC</b></i>. The <b>Pens and the Flyers</b> game was on. I was aloof, as I watched the game. Aloof, up until a stoppage in play. The camera scanned the crowd, stopping at a Pens fan and a Flyers fan seated next to each other, with ice cold beers in their hands. As they horsed around for the camera, I looked at all the fans in the seats beyond them. I felt the aloofness melt, instantly, as an old familiar feeling of warmth and comfort came over me. "I want to be there!" I thought, "I must go to a game, as soon as possible!"<br />
<br />
As they say, Hockey is Back. However, more importantly for me, its back in my heart.<br />
<br />
<i><b>Enjoy the mini season, everybody :o)</b></i><br />

<span style="font-size: x-small;"><i><b>By Lisa Ovens</b></i></span><br />
<br />
As a hockey culture enthusiast, I’m always fascinated by the artistic things
people do with hockey. I’ve draped my body over hockey stick
furniture crafted by individuals who’ve dubbed their work functional art. I’ve
gazed at more than my share of hockey paintings, too. I’ve even created my own
showing of hockey art photos. But when I came across the $20,000 hockey puck I
was instantly excited. How many artists out there work in vulcanized rubber??<br />
<br />
Vancouver artist <a href="http://rchaplin.blogspot.ca/" target="_blank"><b>Robert Chaplin</b></a> did, and I fell in love with <b>Rondelle</b> (French
for hockey puck), a carved puck inlaid with polished gold. Before I get into a
<b>“Starry Night in Canada”</b>, We should talk about Robert’s all time hockey stats. “I had the shortest hockey career ever,” says Robert “The skates hurt my
feet. I was cold. My mom said if I was going to be a baby about it I should
quit. So I did.”<br />
<br />
And that’s when Robert devoted his brain completely to art. That’s not to
say he doesn’t have hockey in his life. Rob is one of the founding fathers of
the <b>Blood Alley Road Hockey Association</b> in Gastown (an historical Vancouver neighbourhood). Although the association is
currently dormant, Robert has fond memories of playing road hockey. “When I
figured out I was actually a left-handed shot, I finally felt some joy when
playing hockey.” Beyond road hockey, Robert has one NHL ritual. “I watch one
hockey game per year,<b> the Stanley Cup Final</b>.”<br />
<br />
I did meet his brother Malcolm at one of Robert’s shows. <b>Malcolm lives in
Northern BC</b>, and plays on a recreation hockey team. Malcolm told me his team plays a
variation of the dump and chase. It’s called dump and wait. I asked Robert if he’s
ever seen dump and wait in action. “What?” was his reply. Never mind. Now for
Robert’s art stats.<br />
<br />
Robert Chaplin is an elected member of the <b>Royal Canadian Academy of the
Arts</b>, has a BA in Fine Art, is an award winning published author, an expert
sculptor, has had work sold at Christie’s in New York, and has created one of
the most beautiful object du hockey I’ve ever seen. The fact that it is also an
<b>official NHL puck</b> makes it even sweeter for this hockey fan to hold in her
hand.<br />
<br />
I slowly run my finger tip around the swirls, until I stop at each gold
inlay star. Six stars, just like a team on the ice: five skaters and one goalie. The largest
inlay is the moon, and its face makes me giggle. Yes, this puck is something to
hold. The future owner of Rondelle may have trouble putting it down.<br />
<br />
Robert may not know the finer points of dump and chase and the lesser known
dump and wait, but he has created the perfect setting for hockey on the face of
this puck – a starry night, a game to play… and the moon is your biggest fan.<br />

A funny thing happened to me Wednesday night during the third period of Game Four. It was still 0-0 on the scoreboard and I was hankering for a goal. So I tweeted, "Think I'll leave the room for a bit, in hopes it will encourage a goal to be scored." I went outside for a short walk. I walked back inside, and sure enough, not one, but two goals were scored! First the Devils broke the deadlock, and then a minute or so later, <b>the Kings</b> tied it up, creating a new deadlock. <b>The Devils</b> went on to score two more, winning the game 3-1. Then <b>Phil Pritchard</b>, the guy that has one of the coolest jobs ever, packed up Stanley and headed to the airport.Yes, I guess they brought the Cup out too soon (it was still o-o when they showed Cup curator, Pritchard putting it on a table somewhere in the bowels of <b>Staples Center</b>).<br />
<br />
And speaking of Pritchard, who is also VP of the <b>Hockey Hall of Fame</b>, wouldn't this be the best contest ever...<br />
<br />
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;">Win the opportunity to be Phil Pritchard...</span></div>
<div style="font-family: Arial,Helvetica,sans-serif; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: large;"> and accompany the Stanley Cup on one of it's many journeys!!</span></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
Just another way the <b>Hockey Hall of Fame </b>could engage us. Anyway, Game Five takes place in <b>New Jersey</b> on Saturday June 9th...which seems so far away. I can imagine Kings fans will take this time to relax a bit. I can imagine everyone was on pins and needles right up until Wednesday night's game was out of reach. Hang in there, regal ones!<br />

<b>Can the New Jersey Devils Stop the Regal Ones...Even Just Once?</b></div>
<br />
As much as this is about a possible Kings sweep to win <b>Lord Stanley's Cup</b>, it is also about the <b>New Jersey Devils</b> winning their first game of the series. Devils fans, welcome to the nightmare <b>Canucks and Blues fans</b> went through in rounds one and two. It's "one game at a time", time. Although the Canucks managed to win their Game Four, the comeback came to a close early into OT of Game Five. <b>Martin Brodeur </b>is going to have to steal this game for the Devils after the 4-0 loss in Game Three. Only the 1942 <b>Toronto Maple Leafs </b>managed to climb their way out of a 0-3 hole in <b>Stanley Cup Final </b>history.<br />

Every year, during the <b>Stanley Cup Playoffs</b>, we hear how t<b>he NHL</b> prefers various non playoff NHL related news stories to be kept on a temporary "down low" so as not to take the spotlight off one of sports most grueling quests for a championship.

Now, I am going to give <b>Detroit Red Wing</b>, <b>Niklas Lidstrom</b> a pass here for announcing his retirement after 20 amazing years playing for the Wings because,well, he was such a fixture during the post season. He's a four time <b>Stanley Cup Champion</b> and the first European born player to win the <b>Con Smythe </b>Award as MVP of the 2002 S.C. Playoffs. The Wings have made the playoffs for the last 21 years in a row, making their playoff appearance streak the longest in professional team sports, and you know <b>Lidstrom</b> has something to do with that. So yes, it is just fine he announces his retirement at this point in time because everyone should know when a superstar like Lidstrom decides to hang up the skates.<br />
<br />
What don't we need to know about right now? Whatever the heck is going on with <b>Tim Thomas's</b> career!<br />
Thomas is no <b>Nik Lidstrom</b>, and shouldn't have chose this point in time to announce his "sabbatical from the game". It just shows us, once again, that Thomas has little respect for his peers, especially the ones currently playing in the <b>Stanley Cup Final</b>, a place where he was, this time last year. <b>Roberto Luongo</b>, what were you thinking "pumping this guy's tires" a year ago?L.A.

Well, we can all breathe a sigh of relief. Game One of t<b>he
Stanley Cup Final</b> round is in the books, with a sweet overtime victory for the
<b>LA Kings</b>. I’m sure the women and crew from <b>Whilethemenwatch</b> are also feeling some relief
after getting their first <b>Hockey Night in Canada </b>show under their belts. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like many, I was surprised that a show that openly discussed
topics often banned on hockey message boards was getting this kind of exposure. However,
I wasn’t one of the people to boycott the show last night. As concerned as I
was about how this show wound up on HNIC, I still planned on giving it some
time before I got into the game. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Over the last ten years I have studied women related sports
ventures and the careers of various hockey media women. In my second book, <b><i>For
the Love of Empty Net Goals</i></b>, I created a special section listing milestone
achievements, firsts, failures, female hockey jersey debacles, and issue
riddled marketing campaigns to name a few.<b> Whilethemenwatch</b> is another entry to
throw onto the research pile.</div>

For readers in the United States, here is a photo of the
set up as it looked on my computer screen. Ladies on the left, game on the

<div class="MsoNormal">
A B&W skit opened the show, with Lena and Jules channeling <b>Lucy and Ethel</b> having a telephone chat, gossiping about "these two
women who were going to be hosting a new show on HNIC". Eventually they hang up
because the game was going to start so they had to go take care of the men.Obviously this opening was their way of responding to several days of backlash. Then the real show began. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Show hosts, <b>Lena Sutherland</b> and <b>Jules Mancuso</b> had some help from producer/camera operator Sonny, as well as <b>Jamie Ordolis, Senior Producer of </b><i><b><span style="font-style: normal;">CBC Live, </span></b><span style="font-style: normal;">who</span> </i>sitting
off to the side. As you can see the set was pink with white, but instead of the
girls sipping from martini glasses, they were holding big, manly coffee mugs. There
was plenty of chatting, with Sonny either fielding hockey questions from the
hosts, or he was reining them in towards something that was going on during the
game. They all seemed to have a nice rapport going, and the host themselves seem to be very friendly women. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
At times I was distracted by the twitter feed scrolling down
the right side of my screen, but it did serve a purpose. Everyone loves prizes,
so the show became interactive, getting viewers involved by tweeting photos of them
watching the game and who they were watching the game with to be used as an
entry to win some swag. I did see some tweets from people getting involved
amongst all tweets, good and bad for <b>#whilethemenwatch. </b></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The one bit I liked was when they spoke about a cheer that had
something to do with the movie, <i><b>Scarface.</b></i> I thought the cheer sounded kind of
cool, and I even tweeted asking for the spelling of the word they cheered, but
never got a response. Wish I could share that with you.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Once the <b>Boyfriend of The Game</b> portion of their shtick
began I really wanted to stop watching, but it seemed to go on and on. For me,
it was bizarre and somewhat unpleasant to see two grown women get into such an elaborate procedure in
order to choose the best looking players on the ice. I realize the premise of
the show has been set up as if we are eavesdropping on them “while the men
watch” and they obviously had to add some props into the Boyfriend mix because
this is taking place on camera. But this kind of content, along with the "Hall Pass" game really belongs on a <b>Cougar Dating </b>website.I did find myself getting more into the game itself at this point. Couldn't help it: I love hockey, and it was hard to stay with their talking .</div>

After the game, I spent some time reading the twitter
comments directed at Jules and Lena’s show. I didn’t spend any time with the
horrible insulting tweets, because no one deserves that kind of treatment, but
instead focused on the more constructive ones written by women. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">

<div class="MsoNormal">
It is clear to me that a female run hockey show, with the
right content, could be accepted by both female and male hockey
fans. It was clear to me ten years ago when I started my <a href="http://hockeyandhighheels.com/" target="_blank"><b>Hockey and High Heels</b></a>
project. I wouldn’t have started writing my first hockey book if I didn’t
discover there was a community for it.</div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
Watching the <b>WTMW</b> debut last night did inspire me. I'm inspired to share the knowledge I've gathered from ten years of
“Watching Women Watch Sports”, and go beyond consulting with hockey teams. It inspired me to develop my own ideas for shows that I’ve written down over the years, and I encourage other female hockey content writers to do the same. If we are not pleased with a show like <b>Whilethemenwatch,</b> and know we can do better, we should make it happen. </div>

When I looked at what Jules and Lena have accomplished in
a year, I was both impressed and baffled at the same time. Myself, along with other women hockey content creators know how hard it is to get a foot in the door. In my column yesterday I asked out loud in the CBC's direction, just how did this <b>Whilethemenwatch </b>concept make it onto <b>Hockey Night in
Canada’s</b> platform? Finally I found the answer in an article posted on <b>avclub.com</b> earlier today. It
was in an interview conducted by John Semley<a href="http://www.avclub.com/toronto/articles/while-the-men-watch-creator-and-cohost-lena-suther,75805/" target="_blank"> (link is here)</a>. Here's the telling excerpt...</div>

I have to admit, I just didn’t know where to begin with this
latest hockey fan crisis involving <a href="http://whilethemenwatch.com/"><b>Whilethemenwatch</b></a> and <a href="http://www.cbc.ca/sports/?ref=cbcsports"><b>CBC’s Hockey Night inCanada</b></a>. This whole thing just seems like an April Fool’s joke. The CBC is
offering up a choice platform for two women to provide "gossip show" style
commentary during the <b>Stanley Cup Final</b>? Two women reaching out to non hockey fans that view the game more as an inconvenience that requires coping skills? Two women who went on TV, and when asked for a sample
of their work after being shown a photo of the <b>Sedin Twins</b>, said “Do the
Sedins’ curtains match the carpet?" Yep, this does feel like a prank and I so wish I was being fooled for real.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Whether
online or face to face, there are always guys and gals in the crowd that are
going to seriously question a woman's knowledge and commitment to the game. Where's the card we can flash that instantly proves our hockey cred*? "<span class="st">Logic clearly dictates that the needs of many<i><i></i> </i>outweigh the needs of the few." Yes, I'm playing the Spock quote card. </span>However, I have low expectations from Lena Sutherland and Jules Mancuso to use their new found power with <b>WTMW on CBC</b> to help us out with the credibility issue after they inadvertently catapulted us back to the Fifties. What are you gonna do?</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Like WTMW, I came out of left field with my first book <i><b>Hockey &High Heels</b></i>, so I truly knows what it is like to stick your neck out into
the world of hockey entertainment, as <b>Lena and Jules </b>are
doing with their partnership with <i><b>CBC Sports</b></i>. So It’s hard for me not to mention a
few of my own experiences as they relate to this story. In my case, along with a lot of good, I also saw some hand wringing, eye rolling and
insults because of the title (mostly from women online) and I
even had a cyber stalker for a little while. But none of that compares to what
I have read about Lena, Jules and the CBC over the last few days. Here's what I am thinking about the CBC.</div>

There are plenty of women available who have the talent to
deliver quality hockey content suitable for the masses. Hockey minded women
deserve to be working in hockey and they deserve to be a part of <b>North American</b>
hockey’s biggest event, <b>the Stanley Cup Final</b>. How Jules and Lena wound up
being the chosen ones riding the coat tails of the longest running show
in the history of sports is beyond me.</div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am well aware that the <b>CBC/NHL </b>contract expires in 2015.
We saw the CBC lose the <b>HNIC theme song</b>, what else could be on the block in the
near future? Obviously strengthening the <b>HNIC</b> brand is vital between now and
then. Although I think it is great to see <b>HNIC</b> tinker with
their presentation and content, they clearly are out of touch with, well,
everything! </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The other day I was speaking with Pens hockey writer, <a href="https://twitter.com/#%21/pensjan">Jan Snyder</a>,
and she reminded me of the sparkle/studded <b>NHL jersey crisis of 2010.</b> When
pressed, the NHL’s merchandise department admitted they didn’t really know what
women hockey fans wanted. How do two big companies like the NHL and the CBC
completely miss the mark in this day and age? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Often, women are referred to as the elusive female market or
the lucrative female market. That’s what we are. Women have this massive
purchasing power that is known and lusted after in corporate boardrooms, the
world over. Yet, for some reason, as the CBC has demonstrated, the other power
we possess is completely ignored. And by other kind of power I mean being in a position to show them what
the key looks like and how to use that key to unlock the door to this highly
desirable market. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So, I have to ask CBC... are we in this situation because of an old boys' club judgement? Or, and I highly doubt this, are the Whilethemenwatch women working for free? Don't you think it might be more beneficial to target the casual male and female hockey fans first and then tackle the ones that are forced to cope with hockey in their house?</div>

<span style="font-size: x-small;">Ten years ago this summer, I began work on a hockey book titled <i><b>Hockey and High Heels-
A Different Kind of Hockey Book</b></i>. To make a long story short, H&HH website
launched 2004, H&HH book launched
2005, added hockey blog to website in Fall 2006, did my first hockey event for women
2006 (<b>Everett Silvertips</b>) Went on to do events with the <b>Phoenix Coyotes,
Pittsburgh Penguins, Los Angeles King</b>s, plus consulted with other teams, <b>2010
Winter Olympic Blogger</b>, launched a second book, <b><i>For the Love of Empty Net
Goals- My Adventures Living Hockey</i></b>, and most recently spoke at the <b>Buffalo
Sabres Hockey n Heels</b> event March, 2012. Currently <span style="font-size: x-small;">I'm </span>learning how to walk again after seriously breaking my ankle thanks to an outdoor
skating accident in Florida. </span></div>
