The referee sending the young player to the box goes back to a time when in certain leagues or districts thru Pee Wee, players were penalized if the stick went above the shoulders. Stick blade is at the player's eye level.

I did this series a couple years ago in Canada. Sorry for the watermarks, don't have any better pictures.



Edit: Oh wow the new media function is wonderful.

This is hanging in the boardroom of my firm's office.

It was bought at silent auction for the Sens charities and was created by a local painter.

The Rideau Canal. My wife & I will always remember our two days of skating on that amazing sheet of ice.

There's a painter named Peter Shostak from Alberta who wrote & illustrated a book entitled "Hockey ... under winter skies." Beautiful winter scenes focused on childhood hockey play in that book. Much of his artwork can be viewed on his website. You can also Google "Peter Shostak winter art" to see many of his pieces.

Everybody knows Snoopy likes hockey, but I personally had no idea that Popeye played it. It makes total sense.

Early fifties Maurice Richard bread ad.

Zamboni patent and ad.

^^^ Great old ads from the early post WW2 years.... That is absolutely something else that a major baker would brand his bread after The Rocket. Never seen anything close to that elsewhere. Had the famous Wheaties boxes with pictures of various sports stars on them but still, called "Wheaties", but never a staple product like bread. Endorsements for food & drink products & so on sure but not a "title". Branded after. Not during that era & few since.... Gretzky & a few others have wines, cottage breweries have named beers after players but all of that fairly recent & named after as a lot of these guys bought wineries, or with the breweries "retro" labeling. Like Johnny Bower Pale Ale or whatever. All long retired players. Targeting the Boomer Generations. GenX .
