I'm planning on attending for a bit on Saturday but am unable to make it for the Sunday practice. I will do a quick write up for what I see if I can make it there.

It should be an interesting practice with only one coach in place.

A couple of former Pats in the news

Victor Bartley has signed with the Nashville Predators.
Here's the Predators Press Release: http://predators.nhl.com/club/news.htm?id=563633&navid=DL

I would post a link to the IceGators site but it's news section isn't up-to-date but it does have a link to email him. (thanks to Gregg Drinnan @ gdrinnan.blogspot.com for this tidbit of information)

2010-11 Final Thoughts

Well it's taken me a long time to get to this. I've been having trouble coming up with something worth writing and it has been difficult. There were many ups and downs this year but in the overall picture of things the downs outmatched the ups by a fairly wide margin.

I had a huge post written up but decided to delete it as I didn't think it was fair to criticize the boys any more than they have been already. Justified or not I don't think it would be fair.

I did like a lot of the moves that Chad made and it feels like we are turning the corner.

Three years in a row without the playoffs.... First time in franchise history. Please don't make it 4!

Derek Boogaard Laid To Rest

REGINA, Saskatchewan (AP) -- Family, friends and hockey players filed into a chapel in Canada to remember New York Rangers enforcer Derek Boogaard.

The 28-year-old player was found dead in his Minneapolis apartment May 13. A medical examiner said he ingested a toxic mix of alcohol and the powerful pain killer oxycodone.

Hundreds attended the private funeral in Regina for the Saskatchewan-born Boogaard.

Rangers scout Doug Risebrough said competitors on the ice steered clear of the player known as "The Boogeyman," one of the league's most feared fighters. But Risebrough said people liked being around Boogaard off the ice because of his love of life.

Boogaard appeared in 22 games last season with the Rangers. His death came five months after he sustained a season-ending concussion.

Obituary

Boogaard, Derek
Published: 2011-05-20
Regina, SK

Derek Leendert Boogaard It is with great sadness that we announce the passing of our teddy bear and protector Derek Leendert Boogaard. Derek was born on June 23, 1982 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan to Len and Joanne Boogaard, son of Peter & Nancy Boogaard and daughter of Ted & Anna Vrouwe. Derek is survived by Peter & Nancy Boogaard (Opa & Oma), parents Len & Joanne Boogaard, sister Krysten, brothers: Aaron, Ryan (Lisa), and Curtis (Gladys, Logan, Hayden, Molly), as well as numerous Aunts, Uncles, cousins and close friends. Derek grew up in Hanley, SK before moving to Holland Landing, ON. There was then a move to Stroud, ON, where he found his passion for hockey at the tender young age of 4. In 1988 he moved to Herbert, SK where he started elementary school, there was then another move to Melfort, SK where his hockey continued. Derek gained his well known nickname in the hockey world, the Boogeyman, while playing bantam AA after he was seen fighting on the ice. It happened that Todd Ripplinger was in attendance and put him on the protected list for the Pats Hockey team of Regina. From Melfort Derek then moved to Regina and played with the Regina Capitals and then with the Regina Pats. After playing with the Pats Derek was sent to play for the Prince George Cougars for three years followed by two years with the Medicine Hat Tigers. In 2001, Derek was drafted into the NHL by the Minnesota Wild. He spent a year playing with the Louisiana Ice Gators (ECHL) and two years with Houston Aeros (AHL). From 2005-2006 he spent his first NHL season playing with the Minnesota Wild where he played for five years and gained his title of the toughest player in the NHL. Minneapolis was a home away from home for Derek where he made many great friends. He was well loved and a fan favourite for many. The 2010-2011 season he moved to the big city and played with the New York Rangers. Derek was a strong person who battled a lot of adversity. He was a hero and a role model. Derek was a larger than life gentle giant. He was caring to everyone around him and a genuine son, brother, friend and teammate to many. A private service for family and close friends will held for Derek on Saturday, May 21, 2011 at 10:00 a.m. at the RCMP Depot Chapel (please use McCarthy Boulevard entrance). Derek was heavily involved with the communities he lived in. He was a part of Defending the Blue Line which is an organization that supports military families and also donates hockey equipment to children. In lieu of flowers, donations can be made to the Boogaards Boogaurdians Memorial Fund or Defending the Blue Line, 1206 North Frontage Road, Suite B, Hastings, MN 55033. To leave an online message of condolence, please visit www.speersfuneralchapel.com

I had a big update planned....

but things changed. I will have something soon. I'm going to post a story on Derek Boogaard and then get thing rolling on the 2010-11 review/2011-12 preview.

Update

I know I said that I would be updating the blog a lot earlier than this but things came up and I've been busy with them. I am planning on doing a wrap-up for 2010-11 (I know it's almost 2011-12 but I've still got some things to say). I'm working on some things for the weekend for an update so check back later today and there should be some form of update.

Derek Boogaard News

MINNEAPOLIS - A medical examiner in Minnesota has ruled the death of New York Rangers enforcer Derek Boogaard was an accident, due to mixing alcohol and oxycodone.

The Hennepin County Medical Examiner released Boogaard's cause of death on Friday. The medical examiner says no other data will be released.

The 28-year-old Boogaard was found dead in his Minneapolis apartment last Friday, five months after he sustained a season-ending concussion with the Rangers.

The six-foot-seven, 265-pound Saskatoon native became a fan favourite in his years with the Minnesota Wild.

He played in 255 games with the Wild from 2005-10.

Oxycodone is a powerful painkiller that can be addictive and has been blamed in some overdose deaths.

SAD NEWS!!

Former Pat Derek Boogaard has passed away. My thoughts and prayers go out to his family.

From Twitter:

RealKyper Nick Kypreos

I'm saddened to hear #Rangers Derek Boogaard was found dead early this morning. A formal announcement is expected as early as tonite.

If Blogger doesn't crash again

I will have a post or 2 in the next bit.... Hopefully by sometime this evening. I'm waiting for Blogger to get 'back to normal' before I make any big post plans.

Update

Just a quick note to those of you that are visitors to Ron "Scoreboard" Johnston's Regina Pats Alumni website.... it is now back up and running. There was a snafu and the old URL was lost in the shuffle. There will be some work done on it and hopefully everything will be up and running smoothly in the next little while. Please check it out.... Ron has put a lot of work into it.

Please note it is at a new address www.reginapatsalumni.net

I found a couple of links....

that might be of some interest to people looking for info about some of the bantam picks.....

A blog about Nathan Churchill's past couple of seasons put together by Randy Churchill (a parent perhaps).... the link is: http://nathanchurchill.blogspot.com/

One thing I must say is I think Nathan has more facial hair than lots of guys my age.

Regina Pats looking to build a winner

By Greg Harder, Leader-Post May 4, 2011 9:19 AM Be the first to post a comment

Regina Pats GM Chad Lang.Photograph by: Don Healy, Leader-Post filesThe restoration of the once-proud Regina Pats could hinge on their ability to take a complement.

Although the Pats believe the foundation of their rebuilding process begins with the players selected in last year's bantam draft, it's imperative that they follow up with additional building blocks via the 2011 draft, which takes place Thursday in Calgary.

If all goes according to plan, the new players will complement the likes of Morgan Klimchuk and Kyle Burroughs, the top two picks from the Class of 2010, thus providing continuity and minimizing gaps in the depth chart as Regina looks to build a consistent winner.

"It's really important (to have another strong draft)," offered GM Chad Lang, who was hired last summer and is overseeing his first bantam draft with the Pats. "If you want to maintain a consistency and be competitive year in and year out with the amount of parity in the league, you have to build from within and that begins with the draft.

"I know they had a real strong draft last year and we're hoping we can mirror that this year and bring in quality players - not only quality players but quality individuals. In order for an organization to be successful you need to have both."
