The Leafs’ Punisher
Orr has done a lot of hurtin’, but some of that pain has been felt by his team
If he could it again, and Colton Orr knows full well he cannot, he would keep his fingers to himself.
Underdog ’89 Petes never quit
Reunion for team on Saturday night
Canadian Olympic hockey coach Mike Babcock recently said a team which wins a championship walks together forever.
That’s exactly how members of the Peterborough Petes’ 1989 OHL championship squad feel.
While some haven’t seen each other in many years, it will be like they were never apart when the Petes honour the 20th anniversary of their victory prior to Saturday’s game against the Mississauga St. Michael’s Majors at 7 p.m. at the Memorial Centre.
Andy MacVicar, now a school liaison officer with the Halifax police, played on a line with the ’89 team’s marquee names — Mike Ricci and Tie Domi.

A day to promote good sportsmanship across the USA
Today is National Sportsmanship Day, a celebration of what’s right with sports. This is the 20th annual event as administered by the Institute for International Sport at the University of Rhode Island.
NSD theme — Competitive Self-Restraint. The theme is taken from NSD founder Dan Doyle’s highly acclaimed The Encyclopedia of Sports Parenting. Competitive self-restraint means competing hard but maintaining one’s self-control and playing within the rules.
As part of the celebration, students from elementary, middle and high schools, as well as colleges and universities, were invited to write essays of 500 words or less which address a sportsmanship theme.
The Institute estimates that around 15,000 schools will recognize Sportsmanship Day in some way.
A message to the Lloyd family
To the extended family of Jessica Lloyd,
My most sincere condolences on the untimely loss of Jessica.
A vibrant and warm lady, with a strong sense of humour and close community and family connections, whose death tragically came too soon.
It has been a BLAST!
Hi Everyone!
I want to thank everyone for all of their support. It has been a BLAST!
I especially want to thank my partner, Tuffy, who retired 13 years ago…she came back and made me look good. She put up with me for 10 weeks which believe you me, can be difficult –ha ha ha! She also sacrificed a lot to do the show, being away from her twin boys and her husband, Don.
Also, I thanked many people last night after the show and I really meant my thanks! There are a number of people that don’t get enough recognition for the tireless work that they do, which make us all look good.
Tie Domi goes home when he probably shouldn’t have
It’s with mixed emotions that we say goodbye to Tie Domi.
He should have been out weeks ago, but on Sunday, I thought a lot of good things were happening in his skate. I commented to my friend Janean before they announced the bottom 2: “Man, if it’s Tuffy and Tie vs. Dubreuil and Richer, I think Tie may actually pull it off.” On Sunday, he and Tuffy did a “Boots are Made for Walking” ode to a horrible Jessica Simpson movie BUT they were actually really good. He did some footwork. He got into the music and because he was playing a tough cow boy, his cockiness worked with the music.
Chris Neil – Apr 14, 2004
Third Period: 10:24 – Domi takes a run at Leschyshyn. Neil immediately comes over and they drop the gloves. Neil gets in a right, and it’s pretty much all Domi from here, as they start to spin a bit and Domi lands a few lefts, misses on one or two more. They go down and try to get back up, but the linesmen stop it. Pretty short bout.
Until there’s a CURE… there’s HOPE”

Diabetes Hope Foundation continues to be the only Canadian non-profit foundation dedicated to improving and enhancing the quality of life of children and young adults living with diabetes each and every day. The demand for our programs and support continues to grow each year.
