Organization: Ericsson Telecom, Stockholm, Sweden


 Face-off time for this season's World Junior Hockey Championships is soon
 upcoming, to be precise, on Saturday December 26.

 The tournament will attract a lot of interest, especially from talent
 scouts from NHL. No less than 82 (!) scouts and representatives from
 NHL will be following the young prospects in this WJHC.

 "It's the only time of the season when all the world's best young players
 gather and you can get a real picture of their talent," says Anders
 Hedberg, scout for the Toronto Maple Leafs.

 That the WJHC is an important step in recruiting players is evident since
 no less than seven NHL teams chose to have their General Managers in the
 attendance. These are: Neil Smith of the Rangers, Doug Risebrough of the
 Flames, Hartford's Brian Burke, LA Kings' Nick Beverley, Ottawa's Mel
 Bridgman, San Jose's Dean Lombardi and Tampa Bay's Phil Esposito who also
 brings along his brother Tony.

 Other prominent former players that will be watching/scouting includes
 Bobby Clarke, Vaclav Nedomansky, Jiri Hrdina and Darryl Sittler.

 Some former Swedish players are also employed as scouts by NHL teams.
 These are: already mentioned Anders Hedberg, Inge Hammarstrom, Anders
 Kallur, Dan Labraaten, Bengt Lundholm and Willy Lindstrom.

 "Most of these players are already drafted but we have to follow up and see
 how the players develop," Anders Hedberg continues.

 The organizers of the tournament are very happy to see so many scouts present.
 Special "NHL-packages" have been sold, which includes game tickets, 
 hotel arrangements, transportation and access to VIP-areas. This is
 of course financially profitable for the organizers.

 However, the scouts are not allowed to meet with the players without 
 obtaining permission from the national team's coach.

 The coach of the Swedish junior national team, Tommy Tomth, is not 
 particularly worried about the presence of all the scouts. "It has been
 working fine so far. The guys are aware of how good they are and I don't 
 think the presence of the scouts will affect their play a great deal."

From the local paper:

* Ottawa loves its Senators

They may be in last place in the NHL, but fans are still interested in seeing
more of the Ottawa Senators. The team says 97 percent of seasons tickets for
next season have been reserved.

-----

That's all there was, but I know Scott is happy 8-). Just how many is 97%
of the season tickets, Scott?

Now to make Scott unhappy, here is what it said about Hartford before its
game with TB:

Whalers update: Hartford should be thankful that Ottawa joined the Adams
Division this season. Of the Whalers' first nine victories, four of them
were against the expansion Senators.

Sorry Scott.

The only name I know for the Amiga league simulator is "Hockey
Simulator".  As far as I know it's a pretty old game (2-3 yrs.).  I
assume that the "Hockey Simulator" you've seen for the IBM is a
commercial program, any idea what software company made it?  Thanks.

Let's see what he does from now onward ... maybe he will be the next

with the Oilers but nowhere close to his brother in grit.)  Tie Domi
swept in like a hawk for a tap-in (ESPN showed the clip) ... see, he

Could Daryl or Ken or Gord please fill us in on this?  I heard that
it was unfathomably cold this past week (I've been here too long; it
was -5C here in Manhattan on the 25th/26th and I was wimping out ...)
Domi can be a big clown and I'm sure that he'll get bigger promotion
income in Winnipeg to offset the salary differential.  Was he pushing
ticket sales already?  He's fairly extroverted, but quite immature ...
probably a reason for his being underplayed and his fighting abilities
over-emphasized here in the Big Apple.

I agree with Gerald's comments, in addition, Toronto will lose such a character player like Wendel Clark, who is so much liked by the fans.  I don't think it will be a good trade for either team.  Clark is too old to fit in Edmonton's long range rebuilding plan and Murphy and Tikkanan are two loose canons.

I only predicted that he wouldn't be among the first five players chosen
...that's not slighting Kariya...Daigle, Kozlov, Pronger, and Gratton 
are just too good and bigger...and it will be essentially expansion
teams that are picking.

I agree with your article.  Press for hockey sucks.

In Minnesota we have:
   Vikings- they deserve the press and get it.
   Twins-ditto
then theres the Timberwolves, who suck and they get way more press
than the Northstars.  The Northstars are ignored.  Dennis Green-owner
has made a big deal of the lack of press for the stars.  I hope things
change.  Besides, I don't know about Illinois, but in MN the #1 sport
is hockey by a mile.

I also wish the NHL was televised more.  We used to get CBC (Canada) on 
cable and there hockey was awesome.  They should have Hockey Night in
Canada in the U.S. because they do a great job!

 As a rule the Europeans referees are much tighter on these borderline calls.
 In NHL they bend the rules a bit to avoid too many breaks (they have the
 breaks for fights instead :-), but in Europe if there's ever a doubt, they
 blow the whistle.

 Daigle wasn't very impressive in the Canada-Sweden game. The Senators 
 scouts must not have been very happy with that. The Quebec scouts, however,
 must have been smiling up to their ears (Peter Forsberg).

 Perhaps it is just you, Scott-guy :)  They usually don't bother me more

 Yes, we put up with these all year but like I said, I don't notice them at
 all. It's a matter of what you're used to, I believe. As long as they stay
 in the face off circles and they're not in many colors, they're fine with me.

 But like I reported earlier about a practice game (Swe-Fin) played in 
 Helsinki, the rink had all face off circles filled with logos in different
 colors (red, orange, blue, green). In addition the rink had 6 other circles
 (almost the size of the face off circles) filled with more ads in different
 colors. That was just a little too much for my liking but perhaps you can
 get used to that also.

I saw the goal on the highlights. It was a nice goal. Good luck Andrew!

[ Gerald says Forsberg said Canada couldn't skate and Sweden would beat them easily]

[Staffan says Forsberg isn't a cocky person, also since Tyler Wright is a
friend Forsberg wouldn't say such a thing about a friend.]

[Gerald gives what Forsberg really said.]

[Staffan correctly points out Forsberg never said the Canadians can't skate
only that the Swedes are better skaters, missing the fact that the statement
was still cocky]

Well,well turns out Forsberg is the type that makes cocky statements(ie. young,
great player and knows it,hates to lose,oh and brash), there now you've
both overstated your cases. Now shake hands and get over it already.
