For more than half a century, generations of hockey fans in northeast Iowa have given their allegiance to the Waterloo Black Hawks. Few realize that decades before the Black Hawks arrived, a long forgotten club captivated Waterloo during the late 1920's, playing in front of crowds even larger than those who come to the rink today and beating teams from Chicago, the Twin Cities, and Canada. Sponsored and administered by the Becker-Chapman American Legion Post, a contemporary newspaper report noted, " Hockey's] popularity eclipses any other winter sport...the game took such a foothold that the city would be lost without its regular hockey matches now." The Legion Team; Forgotten Hockey in Waterloo, 1927-1930, seeks to revive the memory of this overlooked era, detailing every game the Becker-Chapman squad played during four winters. However, beyond the wins, losses, and game details, the athletes who came to the Cedar Valley for the opportunity to play, their opponents, and Waterloo of that era, come to life.

R1,004 Discovery Miles 10 040 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

Expectations are too high for beginners in hockey. Beginners are simply not ready for team play and systems. What is missing is a transition phase from the first time a player puts on a pair of skates to that first hockey game. The Hockey Method is a methodology to fill in this missing link or gap in hockey development. It identifies skill levels that can be grading to track player proficiency. The Hockey Method consists of two parts; Book 1 - Beginner Skating and Book 2 - Beginner Puck Control. These two parts present 31 skill concepts that are so simple and easy to learn that you don't need to be a coach to teach them. What is really needed, for first timers, is one-on-one direction and instruction. Coaches or parents can do it but parents are a better choice to instruct beginners because they have the time and vested interest to dedicate the 1 on 1 instruction needed by beginners at this early age. The basic idea is to build confidence by learning to walk before you run, run before you glide, and to be able to turn the toes in and out before you are able to use edges.

My Toughest Faceoff - My Life in Hockey and My Battle with Parkinson's Disease (Paperback): Jim Diamond My Toughest Faceoff - My Life in Hockey and My Battle with Parkinson's Disease (Paperback)

R544 Discovery Miles 5 440 Ships in 10 - 15 working days

After being a first-round draft pick of the Detroit Red Wings in 1974, Brent Peterson embarked on a successful National Hockey League playing career that lasted 11 seasons. During his career, he played for Detroit, the Buffalo Sabres, Vancouver Canucks, and Hartford Whalers. When he retired as a player, Brent immediately became an assistant coach with the Whalers before moving back to Portland, Oregon to become the head coach of the Portland Winter Hawks of the Western Hockey League. After leading Portland to the Memorial Cup championship in 1998, Brent wanted to pursue his dream of becoming a head coach in the NHL, so he left Portland and took an assistant coaching position with the expansion Nashville Predators. Brent was later promoted to the position of associate head coach. Soon after that promotion, things took a turn when Brent was diagnosed with Parkinson's disease, a degenerative neurological disorder for which there is no known cure. For a year Brent and his wife Tami kept Brent's diagnosis a secret, even going so far as to borrow the money needed for medications so that they did not have to use Brent's insurance out of fear that the Predators would find out about his condition. When Brent's symptoms became more obvious to the people who were around him every day, he and Tami made the decision to go public with the information that would likely end any chances of a team hiring him to be their head coach. Brent made the news public first by telling the Predators following their elimination from the playoffs in 2004. The team rallied around the affable coach they call Petey. In addition to keeping his position as Nashville's associate head coach, Brent established the Peterson for Parkinson's Foundation in hopes of raising awareness and funding for research. Away from the ice, Brent received some counseling from Michael J. Fox, one of Parkinson's most visible faces. It was that same advice that Brent turned around and gave to former NBA star Brian Grant after he too was diagnosed with the same disease. Like Brent, Grant struggled with the emotional trauma of having been diagnosed with Parkinson's at such a young age. At Brent's urging, Grant established a foundation of his own. Early in the 2010-11 NHL season, Brent's symptoms became more and more difficult to manage. His balance was affected, making it dangerous for both him and the players to be out on the ice together. Following Nashville's elimination from the 2011 playoffs, Poile announced that the team had made the decision that Brent would no longer be a coach. The Predators kept Brent on staff though, creating the position of hockey operations advisor to tap into Brent's years of experience in working with the players. Those same symptoms that made Brent step away from behind the bench were also affecting his quality of life, and the decision was made to undergo the radical medical procedure called Deep Brain Stimulation. DBS is a series of four medical procedures that involve wires being surgically implanted into the brain and then connected to a device inside of the patient's chest. That device sends signals to the brain, and those signals mimic the effects of the chemical dopamine. The results were nearly instantaneous. The morning prior to the system being turned on, Brent needed assistance getting his shoes and socks on before traveling to the hospital. The next day, he was running on a treadmill at the Predators' practice facility. DBS is not a cure for Parkinson's, but it does replicate the effects that medication has on a patient. Brent still has Parkinson's and probably always will. The symptoms will reappear at some point and his condition will likely worsen again, but now he has a renewed outlook on life and a renewed ability to do the things that drive him; being a good husband, father, hockey man, and advocate for Parkinson's patients everywhere.
