Modern Ice Hockey was devised in the mid-1850´s by British soldiers stationed in Canada. Rules were set by students at McGill University in Montréal, Canada, in 1879, and several amateur clubs and leagues were established in Canada by the late 1880´s. The game is believed to have been first played in the United States in 1893. By the beginning of the 20th century the sport had spread to Great Britain and other parts of Europe. The modern game developed in Canada, and nowadays is very popular in North America and East Europe.

Another Interesting fact is that the first puck was actually a frozen lacrosse ball. When they found it to difficult to play with, they cut it into thirds, and used the center portion. After the development of vulcanization, we have the modern hockey puck.

Oh ya...

1996 World Cup of Hockey - Championship Game

Canada 2, United States 5



The 2004 Cup is coming up this summer.

Yeah and you forgot World Jr.'s. I think we asked the question a while back. Does anyone know that the US Jr. Team won gold in January? I think like 6 Americans know.

Americans aren't bad at hockey, and Russia pretty much sucks now. There will be some teams coming out of the woodwork. There are some pretty good Eastern European teams like the slovaks.

Anyway, Both Canada's Mens and Womens hockey teams won gold in 2002 at the olympics against the US both times. So there. biggrin:

I worry about the US team for the world cup though. The US basically has no goalie since Richter retired. They have a few guys with no experience. Your fowards are getting older and you have no one to replace them. Modano Roenic and other will be retiring sooner than later. What happens when their gone? Is Poti gonna step up? Hes been sucking it up latley. Luckiny Canada has tons of new tallent coming up.

I agree... were gonna need a Miracle - no pun intended

Although, I did watch the AHL allstar game, they have a few good americans that might make the cut in the next year or so. But, they aren't going to be outstanding from the get-go.

HAH. Come on ninty9, no one in the US really gives two shits about hockey... I'd HOPE the Canadians won both gold. Hell, they should be winning EVERY YEAR! Hockey is the only thing canucks play anyways, right? biggrin: oOo:
