The name "Basil Pocklington" is stamped over on the 1983-84 Stanley Cup. The owner of the Oilers, as you are aware, put his father's name onto the trophy list, even though his father had nothing to do with the team or its victory.

Do not remove the name. Once you start down this road, the whole cup becomes meaningless.

” convicted in Michigan of 4th degree criminal sexual conduct involving a 16-year-old minor.”

So he chose a future Democrat political career over hockey

When Jimmy Saville was exposed as a sex offender they took away his British Knighthood, wiped his name from everything they could and reburied him in an unmarked grave. No comment from Jimmy since he was already dead having molested hundreds of minors while the BBC covered for him when he was alive. But there was a bright side. The BBC promised to be more vigilant in the future.

how does a hetero 16 year old get into a homo relationship with an older man? I never understand how these coaches entice a hetero young man into sex.
I’m serious. I am female but if an older lesbian teacher /whatever had approached me at 16, I would have gotten the hell out of there.
No comprende.

How did Joel Quenneville get wrapped up in this one? He was just forced out of the Florida Panthers organization over this. The world has gone mad.
