Hockey Summary Project (December 1, 2003)
The goal of the Hockey Summary Project is to compile hockey summaries in a database format and to provide this research to all who want it in a platform independant package.... Similar in spirit to baseball's Retrosheet project...

Too bad hockey stats are so primitive. When baseball ends and hockey starts (go Canucks!) it's like going back to kindergarten again. Can you imagine if the only baseball stats were runs, RBI, and what inning they occurred in? But whatever, hockey makes up for it by being such a great game. I like also that the hockey encyclopedias and sites like hockeydb.com carry full minor-league/junior numbers. You just can't go wrong with team names like the Swift Current Broncos, Brandon Wheat Kings, Moose Jaw Warriors, Kamloops Blazers (Western Hockey League), Laval Titan (formerly Quebec Major Junior Hockey League), Dynamo Moscow, Lokomotiv Yaroslavl, Metallurg Novokuznetsk, Elemash Elektrostal (Russia) and Slovan Bratislava (Czech Republic/Slovakia).

Tango,
That hockey db is an interesting little site... brought me back to my youth and the greatest hockey player I ever saw.
Thanks.

Halifax Mooseheads(e-mail)
(homepage)
I did a search for talk about sports as I am looking for information on where Halifax Mooseheads players lived and the history about them and their culture. We have and have had hockey players from all over the world play with the local hockey team here in Halifax, Nova Scotia, Canada. I am researching anyone who has played in the past and the present for the Halifax Mooseheads hockey team. As I was web surfing, going from one topic to the next I came upon your website as I was looking for hockey blogs, as I thought about creating a blog on the Halifax Mooseheads hockey team. Anyways I read your blog to see if you had any information on how to operate a blog.
I will be back to see if you added anything new that might help me.
Good luck with your website.
Take care and God Bless
