    Woman became pregnant following Cup kiss
    Improbable conception after meeting 'Stanley' 20 years ago

    Stan Riley is your normal 18-year old college freshman. He is focused on his engineering classes at Carleton University in Ottawa, and in his spare time plays in men's pickup hockey games and even does some hockey officiating too. When Stan is home, he "sleeps all day and stays up all night," said his mom, Cheryl.

    But the story of how Stanley C Gordon Jeff Riley -- that's his full name -- came to be is anything but typical. It's one of heartbreak, determination and fate, and revolves around one kiss given to the most famous Stanley of them all: the Stanley Cup.

    "I thank God every day for Stanley," Cheryl said last week from her home in Haliburton, Ontario, talking about her son, and maybe just a little about the most famous trophy in sports. Cheryl speaks with such enthusiasm and detail, you would think the improbable conception of her son occurred last week, not 20 years ago.

    The memories will come rushing back Friday, when Mike Ricci and members of the 1996 Colorado Avalanche -- winners of the Cup at the center of the story -- play in the 2016 NHL Coors Light Stadium Series Alumni Game against former Detroit Red Wings players.

    It was Ricci, after all, who brought the Cup to Haliburton on Aug. 1, 1996, a day that changed the Rileys' lives forever.

    The story actually begins before Cheryl Riley was even born. Her mom, pregnant with Cheryl, took an anti-miscarriage drug and years later, Cheryl found out its effects would make it practically impossible for her to have children of her own. Cheryl and her husband, Ken, would try anyway for close to 17 years, taking fertility tests, but "nothing was working," Ken said. "We had probably given up."

    But it all changed in the summer of 1996. In June, the Avalanche won the Stanley Cup in their inaugural season in Denver. Ricci, a member of the team, had the Cup for the weekend and planned a party at his cottage, being built across the lake from the Rileys' home. That's when fate intervened.

    "I was building my cottage and we didn't have the interior done, and the Stanley Cup was coming," Ricci said. "So I was like, 'Man, we really need a deck' for this party."

    Ricci's contractor rounded up some local workers to build a quick deck, and one of them was Ken Riley. Ricci, grateful for the job they had done, invited the workers and their families to the picnic.

    "The guy who takes care of the Cup, he brought it around from the back of the cottage," Ken said. "They put it on the tailgate of a pickup truck and spent a lot of time having people getting their picture taking with it.

    "And then my wife kissed the Cup … and the rest is history."

    After leaving the party, the Rileys spent some time with friends on the lake, then went home for some private time. A few weeks later, Cheryl started feeling strange.

    "It was Aug. 1," said Cheryl, in her early 40s in the summer of 1996. "Mike [Ricci] brought the Cup up here and on Labor Day weekend we were playing some volleyball on the beach, and I realized that my fingers and ankles were getting sore. Then I discovered that I didn't like the taste of some of the foods I had been eating, and I realized these were things women complain about it when they are pregnant."

    Amazingly, improbably and incredibly, she was. And after getting over the shock of the news, Cheryl was able to pinpoint the night her child, the one she thought would never be able to have, was conceived.

    "We knew it was that night, we knew it was the day I kissed the Stanley Cup," Cheryl said.

    When they told their friends the story, some suggested calling the baby Stanley if it were a boy, but in Ken's family, all the names started with the letter K.

    "So it was going to Kirk if it was a boy and Kelly if it was a girl," Cheryl said. "But when the doctor handed the baby boy to Ken, he just said, 'All right, Stan my man.'"

    The story made its way to their hometown newspaper, and then Mike Ulmer, a writer for the Toronto Sun, happened to spot a clipping of the local story on a bulletin board in the Hockey Hall of Fame. Ulmer wrote a story for the Sun that was syndicated throughout Canada. He also included the Rileys' incredible story in a book called "If the Cup Could Talk."

    These days, Stanley C. doesn't talk much about his name, but if a new friend asks, he said he definitely doesn't get tired of it. He said he still feels a connection to the Cup and roots for the San Jose Sharks these days, because Ricci works for the club as development coach.

    He also knew Ricci during his younger years, when the Rileys would make frequent visits to Ricci's lake house, and bring with them any item they could collect that featured Ricci's picture or logos of the Avalanche and Sharks. Ricci would sign them all.

    "He would always take his time to talk to Stan," Cheryl said of Ricci, who was shocked to find Stanley will turn 19 on May 6 of this year. "He was always very gracious. He's real."

    One day Cheryl brought Ricci two copies of Ulmer's book, one for Ricci and one for him to sign for little Stanley.

    Ricci, with his inscription in the book, summed up the entire story with five little words. "To Stan, the real prize."

    Sakic set for first outdoor appearance
    Colorado GM taking part in Stadium Series Alumni Game vs. Detroit

    CENTENNIAL, Colo. -- When Joe Sakic puts on a Colorado Avalanche jersey to play against the Detroit Red Wings alumni on Feb. 26, it will be his first time on an outdoor rink.

    Sakic grew up in the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby, British Columbia, where winters are relatively mild and frozen ponds are pretty rare.

    CENTENNIAL, Colo. -- When Joe Sakic puts on a Colorado Avalanche jersey to play against the Detroit Red Wings alumni on Feb. 26, it will be his first time on an outdoor rink.

    Sakic grew up in the Vancouver suburb of Burnaby, British Columbia, where winters are relatively mild and frozen ponds are pretty rare.

    "It might freeze up for a couple weeks and you might horse around a little bit, but (there was) never an actual game," said Sakic, the Avalanche general manager.

    The alumni game is part of the 2016 Coors Light NHL Stadium Series at Coors Field where the Avalanche and Red Wings will play a regular-season game Feb. 27 (8 p.m. ET; NBC, SN, TVA Sports 2).

    "It'll be great," said Sakic, who was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2012 following a 20-season NHL career with the Quebec Nordiques and Avalanche in which he had 1,641 points (625 goals, 1,016 assists). "The real game Saturday night, I know the players are looking forward to that. Our fans are all excited about coming out to Coors Field and seeing our first outdoor game. It's exciting for the players, the city, everybody involved.

    "But the bottom line is, that game, we're looking for a 'W.' We're in a playoff spot right now, teams have games in hand. As much as the guys are excited about playing in the outdoor game, once the game starts it's all about winning."

    Sakic said he contacted Detroit GM Ken Holland about the possibility of playing an alumni game once the Red Wings were announced as the Avalanche's opponent.

    "We were all excited when we got the outdoor game," Sakic said. "That rivalry meant so much to the players and to the teams, but to both cities as well. To get all the faces together, the two teams together, one last time … the game's not going to be as intense as it used to be, but it'll be great just to get together and maybe take a group photo and acknowledge what the two teams once had."

    The Avalanche and Red Wings met five times in the Stanley Cup Playoffs from 1996-2002. Colorado won the Stanley Cup twice in that timespan (1996, 2001), Detroit won it three times (1997, 1998, 2002).

    [​IMG]

    "It was just an incredible rivalry," Sakic said. "It was great to be part of that. The further you are away, and it was a long time ago, and I know I speak for myself and probably a lot of players that were part of that, I think you look back and really appreciate being part of something like that.

    "Obviously it was heated, the two teams didn't like each other, but you had a lot of respect for everybody that was part of that because it was something special. Not only was there some ugly stuff, if you look up and down the roster, there were some great names, great hockey players on both teams. The pace of every one of our games, even in the regular season, it was a playoff atmosphere."

    Sakic and Avalanche coach Patrick Roy, who was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2006, have been working out on the ice as much as possible to prepare for the alumni game.

    "I think I've skated four or five times now," Sakic said. "The equipment feels comfortable now. I'll get maybe one more (practice) in next week before the game. I've realized in the last three or four skates that I'm not getting any better, I'm just getting more comfortable. It was a while since I put on equipment, maybe two years, but it all feels good now.

    "We're all excited to play in the game and get through it healthy and the next morning put the equipment up in the garage. We're going to want to make sure we don't embarrass ourselves and try and put on a decent show."

    Roy said he played hockey outdoors when he was 7 or 8 years old while growing up in Quebec City.

    "My dad made a rule, when it got dark you had to be back home," he said. "I always broke tho

    Roy, whose 551 NHL regular-season wins were the most by a goalie when he retired after the 2002-03 season (since surpassed by Martin Brodeur's 691), practiced as recently as Wednesday morning before the Avalanche and Montreal Canadiens played at Pepsi Center.

    "The high play, top circle, is not a concern to me," said Roy, who won the Stanley Cup four times; twice each with the Canadiens and Avalanche. "It's the close play around the net. I guess I feel my age, I feel my weight, I feel everything. Gives me a good idea why I retired."

    The days and hours are ticking down as the NHL prepares for its trade deadline.

    That deadline will hit Feb. 29 at 3 p.m. ET, and the 30 teams in the NHL have to figure out if they are buyers or sellers, contenders or waiting for next year.

    Those determinations will impact whether players are traded or held onto prior to the deadline, and it's never an easy decision.

    Contenders may be willing to give up draft choices and top minor league prospects for veteran talent. But even if they are willing, they don't know if it's the right decision.

    A veteran like Antoine Vermette helped the Chicago Blackhawks win the Stanley Cup last year, and they gave up a first-round draft pick and a minor league prospect to the Arizona Coyotes to make the acquisition at last year's trade deadline.

    Vermette helped the Blackhawks with four goals and three assists in 20 postseason games, and three of his goals proved to be game-winners. His acquisition may have been worthwhile since the Blackhawks hoisted the Stanley Cup, but what about the other so-called rental players who were not acquired by Chicago? Those moves did not appear to work out.

    Veteran players who are scheduled to become free agents in the offseason may seem the most likely players to be moved. Players like Boston's Loui Eriksson and Winnipeg's Andrew Ladd fit that description. However, trade talk by pundits and fans is just speculation at this point.

    There are several players who may be moved by the trade deadline because their names have come up in trade rumors.

    The biggest name is Montreal defenseman P.K. Subban, a former Norris Trophy winner and clearly one of the most explosive offensive defensemen in the league.

    Subban is under contract through the 2021-22 season, but the Canadiens' slump that has seen them go from first place in the Eastern Conference to a position well outside the playoffs has fueled trade talk regarding Subban.

    Louis Jean, a hockey analyst who works for the Canadian television network TVA, tweeted he had received information from one team that the Canadiens are trying to find out how much interest there is in Subban and what they could get for him:

    Subban has not endeared himself to embattled head coach Michel Therrien with some of the mistakes he has made on the ice, and that fuels the speculation further. Therrien blamed Subban for a late-game mistake in a recent road loss to the Colorado Avalanche.

    Since the Canadiens would have to turn their season around dramatically to get back to a playoff position, it seems likely that they would be willing to trade veteran players who will be unrestricted free agents after the season.

    With the trade deadline coming up on the 29th, speculation and rumors abound yet there are very few things that we know as of yet. Andrew Ladd (Captain)of the Jets was dealt to the Blackhawks and that a lot of the veteran players that become free agents this summer are ripe for the picking and can look forward to both a pay cut and a short term contract if they close a trade at all. A sidenote to that is I have worked out with Calgary Flames players and personel since they left Atlanta in the early 80's back when players were older and fitness training was something you did to pass the time between games and most players back then were slower, not as strong/fit and less talented as this generation of young players in the NHL over the last 10 or so years who are like machines with muscles on their muscles, talent and a deep seeded knowledge of the big picture of the do's and don'ts on the ice drilled into them starting in the Juniors. The veteran players too have the right stuff and have earned their spot on the roster and in the rafters but the retirement age has dropped over the last decade and isn't done yet and I can count on one hand the number of vets that can keep up with the young bucks of today and not be skated around. Luckily for these guys, the salaries have gotten out of control so they should have a pretty good nestegg to retire on. The average shift on the ice is about 30-40 seconds today compared to as long as a few minutes back in the "glory days" which is a saving grace for some of the players that are little long in the tooth.

    I still work out with them regularly but the grey hairs buy me some slack with them and I regularly hear " you're in pretty good shape for an old guy" and like I have always said, It's not what you can do but more about the amount of effort you put into it that defines you.

    WTF ... if the NHL playoffs were to start tomorrow, not one, yes thats right, not one Canadian team would make the playoffs and to add insult to injury not even my Flyers would either. What is wrong with this picture ???

    Meanwhile the Washington Capitals are still burning up the standings with 102 points, 15 more than the next best teams Chicago and Dallas.

    I decided to say fuck it to my pride and will start a daily report shortly before the playoffs start and will keep all 5 X'ers that are hockey fans up to date lol.:p

      Since a hockey rink is ice, shouldn't her nipples be cold or maybe that's why she's painted blue?

    Blues To Host Blackhawks In 2017 Winter Classic

    The St. Louis Blues will be the newest team to play in the Winter Classic.

    After the NHL used 10 teams through the first eight Winter Classics, the 2017 event will pit the Blues against the Chicago Blackhawks at Busch Stadium in St. Louis on Sunday, Jan. 2. The baseball stadium is home to the MLB’s St. Louis Cardinals, who have won 11 league championships in their 133-year history.

    The 2017 Winter Classic was awarded to the Blues in their 50th NHL season, which will coincidentally be the NHL’s 100th season. The Blues joined the league in 1967 along with five other teams, including the Los Angeles Kings, Philadelphia Flyers and Pittsburgh Penguins, as well as the now-defunct California Seals and Minnesota North Stars.

    Earlier in the day, the league announced that the Detroit Red Wings and Toronto Maple Leafs will play in the first annual Centennial Classic at BMO Field in Toronto, the home of Toronto FC, on Jan. 1. It’s believed that the NHL wanted to move the Winter Classic, which is usually held on New Year’s Day, to the following day because the final games of the 2016 NFL schedule will be that Sunday.

    The inaugural Winter Classic was held on Jan. 1, 2008 at Buffalo’s Ralph Wilson Stadium with the Sabres hosting the Penguins. That event drew a sellout 71,217 crowd, while being a major hit on television. The latest Winter Classic, played at Gillette Stadium in Foxborough, Mass. on Jan. 1, was played between the Bruins and Montreal Canadiens. It drew a crowd of 67,246.

    The 2017 event is expected to draw over 45,000 fans.

    What is happening in NHL right now? Give me the short version. I never seem to watch the games these days although I get a glimpse here and there and get so excited when I see them play but it just isn't a part of my life anymore and I miss it.

    Short version is that as of today in the standings no Canadian teams would be in the post season. Washington is running away with points in the eastern conference followed by Boston and New York Rangers with Florida, Tampa Bay, New York Islanders,Pittsburgh and Detroit rounding out the teams that would make theplayoffs.

    Dallas, LA, St. Louis, Chicago,Anaheim, San Jose, Nashville and Colorado would make the playoff's in the western conference. Again no Canadian Teams ... and yes that includes your beloved Canucks that are only slightly less pathetic than Calgary, Edmonton and Winnipeg.

    Oh ya ... the Leafs are a fucking joke and the worst team in the league.

    I was just looking at some of the hockey collectables I have and had to smile about the signed team Canada Olympic gold medal jersey's and a thought came to me ... isn't the object of the teams in the NHL to fight for the chance to hoist the Stanley Cup in the end and not to fight to see who gets the first overall draft pick?

    Sorry, it just sunk in that no Canadian teams are in the playoff hunt.

    *fuck me*

    You forgot the Montreal Canadians!

    If no Canadian teams are in then I have no reason to watch and I bet this takes a bit of a toll on the local pubs.

    That pub in Red Deer which is halfway between Calgary and Edmonton that has the bar divided in half with each half decked out in Flame's and Oiler's garb will suffer a double wammy.

    Hmmm, did not know that (or remember if I did know once apon a time) and the playoffs just aren't the same without the Hab's in the post season but they have an outside chance to still make it if they go on a roll and a couple other team hit the skids.

    There are ongoing talks to look at adding more Canadian teams in the near future including Saskatoon, Quebec City and another team in Southern Ontario (possibly Hamilton or St. Catharines).

    FLYERS CLIMBING

    Just as it was starting to look like the Eastern Conference playoff teams were pretty much settled, the Philadelphia Flyers have climbed back into contention. Winning six of the past seven games has put the Flyers to within two points of the Detroit Red Wings, with a game in hand.

    The Flyers have good goaltending, a defence corps that has vaulted ahead thanks to rookie Shayne Gostisbehere, and the forward group remains strong; strong enough that they've been able to continue this surge even while, for the last six of those seven games, first-line winger Jakub Voracek has been sidelined with an injury. Over those seven games, the Flyers also have 55.8% of score-adjusted possession, ranking second in the league during that brief period of time.
