	ESPN - Starting Over -- Top players - NHL
		Gretzky is the most honored player in a team sport with nine Hart Trophies and the only NHL player to score more than 200 points in a season (oh, and he did that four times).
		Orr was the first player to win three straight MVP awards, the first to tally 100 or more points in a season and the first defenseman to score 20 or more goals in a season (he did it seven straight seasons).
		Late in his career, Harvey was fllisted by the NHL for his involvement with the first attempt to form a players' union and the Canadiens didn't retire his number until 1985.

	The Sports Gaming Network - Hockey : NHL Championship 2000 (PSX) Review (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Player renderings are adequate (smooth, especially in close-ups, but a bit blocky and less distinct during play), but the animations are very good (especially the goalies).
		NHL Championship 2000 allows players to choose one of three difficulty levels: what is worth celebrating is that the veteran level offers a competitive game against a worthy opponent.
		NHL Championship is not a very flashy or extremely visually impressive game (although I've heard complaints about player renderings and animations on all of this year's Playstation hockey games).

	SI.com - Writers - Players' attack on union similar to 1989 - Friday October 6, 2006 9:03PM
		They had suspected that something was wrong, but they were stunned as they listened to a list of Eagleson's indiscretions and betrayals, a list that included a string of sweetheart agreements with the owners that provided minimal benefits for them.
		The players' attack on their union is another dramatic turn in the history of the most troubled union in sports, but there are differences between the Eagleson debacle and the current dispute.
		Although many NHL players are tired of the wrangling between their peers and their union, the dissidents are making serious claims.

	HockeyDirt.com: NHL drug testing begins (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-15)
		Indeed, the testing that NHLers began to undergo this weekend is based not on the WADA list, but on a Prohibited List to "negotiated by the NHL and NHLPA." Notably, NHL players are not being tested for stimulants, the testing will focus on steroids and growth hormones.
		The failure to include stimulants in the testing protocol is surprising in light of the rumoured use of ephedrine by NHL players.
		He also suggested that HockeyDirt.com ask the NHL "what substances on the WADA list the league believes players should be able to use." HockeyDirt.com emailed both the NHL and the NHLPA seeking a response to this and other issues raised by Pound.

	NHL set to unveil new uniforms after three years of work \| CP
		There will surely still be critics - some players may be resistant to change - but the shock value dissipated when the original idea of tucked-in jerseys went by the wayside after the players politely gave them the thumbs-down.
		Originally slated to be in use for this season, the NHL wisely held off as Reebok modified and tested with players to get it right.
		The players were not involved in testing and ultimately the complaints prompted the league to switch back to the old ball.

		When the startling news broke in 1980 that Czechoslovakia player of the year, Peter Stastny, and his brother Anton, had defected to Canada to play with the Quebec Nordiques, it represented a watershed moment in professional hockey as one of the first major stars of Eastern bloc hockey to join the NHL.
		Note: Wayne Gretzky had 137 points in his first year in the NHL (1979-80), but was not considered a "rookie", due to his time spent with the World Hockey Association's Indianapolis Racers and Edmonton Oilers, where he won the rookie of the year award in that league during the 1978-79 season with 104 points.
		Recorded 1000th NHL point on October 19, 1989 with a goal against the Chicago Blackhawks, and was the second European-born player, and first trained in Europe, in NHL history to do so.

		With the 2006-07 NHL season set to begin Wednesday, the New Jersey Devils are still awaiting word from the NHL regarding cap relief from the contracts of forward Alexander Mogilny and defenseman Vladimir Malakhov.
		He cited bad knees as one reason leading to his retirement, but the Devils probably won't be able to use that as an excuse to get out of contract due to the circumstances surrounding his departure from the club last season.
		His lingering hip ailment is attributable to NHL service thus placing him on the long-term injury list for this season.

		Oshie was just one of the players that had their big day at the NHL entry draft in Ottawa last year.
		If Oshie turns out to be the kind of player that Kekäläinen and his scouting organization are betting on, getting the rights to sign him to a lucrative contract is worth every cent they invested in finding him, and other hockey protégés.
		The way the NHL organizations generally work the draft is using “The List.” After all the player evaluations and interviews, Kekäläinen and his team draw up a list of players they would want to draft.
