Extractions: THE WEEKLY TIRADE By Scotty Kowall The NHL season has begun and this year brings more than the usual soap opera storylines. Where to start? How about in the Western Conference? The Detroit Red Wings made Cujo their sacrificial lamb after getting knocked out in the first round of the playoffs. He didn't play as well as Jean-Sebastien Giguere but except for maybe Marty Brodeur, who did? Bringing in Dominik Hasek may sooth the fan's wrath but it won't help them score goals. Their new and improved defense looks solid but losing Fedorov to the Mighty Ducks will hurt. Ray Whitney will score some goals but the challenge will be keeping his plus minus respectable. The Red Wings won't dominate the league but they will definitely not fall again in the first round of the playoffs, unless they face another hot goaltender.... Sergei Fedorov and Vaclav Prospal move to the Anaheim Mighty Ducks while Paul Kariya moves to the Avalanche. There is no reason the Ducks won't compete for a top playoff spot, at least that is what I thought until their top defenseman Keith Carney broke his foot. Giguere is as good a goalie as there is but unless the Ducks keep the shots against to a minimum they will have a difficult time repeating. Fedorov is a better two-way player than Kariya and I am inclined to believe that the loss of Steve Thomas who wanted to remain with his family out East will hurt the team more than the loss of Kariya. If Fedorov proves his worth he will keep this team competitive and he should...

Hockey PRO HOCKEY NOTES By Nancy Marrapese-Burrell, Globe Staff, 1/25/2004 When the Carolina Hurricanes were struggling along midway through the 2001-02 season, rumors were rampant that coach Paul Maurice would be fired if his club lost in Florida Dec. 8. The club rallied to win that contest, though, and many more on the way to the franchise's first appearance in the Stanley Cup finals, where the Hurricanes were defeated by the Red Wings. ADVERTISEMENT The following season was a disaster, which often happens to a team coming off a long playoff run. The roster was retooled a bit for this year, and everyone involved was hoping for a turnaround. When it didn't happen, Maurice was let go Dec. 15, in his ninth season behind the bench, and was replaced by former Bruins assistant Peter Laviolette. Prior to Mike Sullivan being hired by the Bruins last June, Maurice was the youngest bench boss in the NHL and also the longest-tenured coach. After giving himself a month off to decompress, Maurice, who turns 37 Friday, said he is back watching hockey and he even did some commentary over the weekend for Hockey Night in Canada. To illustrate just how impressive Maurice's staying power was in an industry that chews up coaches and spits them out, consider that from Nov. 6, 1995 to Dec. 15, 2003 Maurice's term as coach when the franchise was in Hartford and then Carolina Boston had six coaches.

Extractions: UKRAINIAN PRO HOCKEY UPDATE by Ihor Stelmach INTRO TO NEW SEASON There continues to be no shortage of Ukrainian representation in the ranks of the world's highest echelon of professional hockey. No less than 62 pro players of some Ukrainian background were listed on training camp rosters submitted by the 30 clubs of the National Hockey League. Training camp rosters include only players signed to NHL level or minor league contracts; they do not include many dozens more skaters of Ukrainian descent toiling away in the professional minor league ranks. The list of 61 included a player who has actually been retired for several years - goaltender Kelly Hrudey is still carried on the Calgary Flames' roster in case he desires to "unretire." Excluding the aforementioned Hrudey, the defense position is most popular among Ukrainian NHLers with 25 of the total 60 plying their trade on the blueline. Thirteen left-wingers, nine centermen and only five right-wingers fill out the forwards. Nine gutsy guys don the heavy equipment and attempt to stop speeding pucks in front of the nets. Examining the 30 NHL team lists, from a Ukrainian perspective, the "shame on you" awards for zero Ukrainians go to six clubs: Boston, Chicago, the New York Islanders, Minnesota, Nashville and Phoenix. That's right, no Bruins, Blackhawks, Isles, Wild, Predators or Coyotes for us Ukrainians to root for in the 2001-2002 season, barring minor league call-ups or trades.
