The fight in the pits between Paul Tracy and Alex Tagliani in the CHAMP Car race in San Jose is the last straw. I need hockey season to start, and I need it now. I feel like Joel Goodsen in class right now. The clock is going backwards. There wasn’t much to the Tracy/Tagliani scrap, but you know you need it to be hockey season when you jump off the couch and yell, “Here they go!” Both guys are Canadian. I wonder if they can skate. Anyway, what are the rest of you guys doing to get over the Jones? I guess I could watch my Best of Boston fight tape again, but I am pretty sure MOL would leave. Can we please skip August, and go right to September? Please? Would anyone really miss August? No?

2023-07-13The Future of the Hockey Enforcer
I get this question a lot these days, as friends and relatives are well aware of my proclivity for a good ol' professional on-ice donnybrook. While I have strong opinions as to the best answer - the true future of the NHL hockey enforcer and the fights they once graced fans with - I don't have to like it. And, frankly, I don't.Where Have All the Good Goons Gone?On the ice, are there even any classic goons left? Gone are Shawn Thornton, Trevor Gillies, Brendan Walsh and most of the other Goonblo...

We need “individuals” in open wheel racing, not robots. Lets have more passion. The actions were those of two highly competitive males brimming over with adrenaline. Paul should have kept his helmet on!
I can not believe Tracy pulled that move. A related story. I asked the Hammer if he saw the fight. He said, no, but I bet a thousand dollars Paul Tracy was involved. I guess Champ Car is looking into the whole deal.
It’s over 5 weeks to training camp. If you are Jonesin’ for a dustup or 3, you might just want to take in a few HNIB tilts. There are usually a few good brawls from up and comers looking for D-1 college scholarships.
Great tip Dennis! They are at the Salem Ice Center correct?
Right….Salem,NH and there are a few games in Chelmsford. Always a good take this time of year You will see alot of old NHL’ers in the stands who are now scouting. You might even get a Milbury sighting!
Alex Tagliani is pretty brave with a helmet on. What a coward!
