HOCKEY CENTRAL discusses Philadelphia Flyers captain Chris Pronger’s situation and whether he’ll retire soon.
Well Grapes has done it again. He has single handed set the hockey world on it’s head. His comments this week on Coaches Corner towards retired hockey enforcers that no longer support fighting, and feel in very short order it will no longer exist in the NHL has sparked a debate across the hockey world.

I have not seen this in a very long time so I just wanted to post it. Go Leafs Go! Alot has been made about the Leafs making the playoffs. Well as a fan it is not always about making the playoffs or winning the stanley cup. But just being proud of how your team [...]
