Alpha Launch of Our Website

Welcome to IceHockeyLeagues.com. We are in Alpha state as there are some exciting new statistics we will eventually incorporate into the site as resources become available.

The purpose of this site is to appreciate the story of hockey by writing about its historical roots and track how it has grown into a billion dollar business empire and worldwide sport.

Hockey started as a recreational activity that existed only during the winter months in Canada. Now it is world-wide sport where for the first time in the history of the National Hockey League, the number of Canadians has dropped below 50.0% of all active players. Some will be saddened by this. I see it as an exciting new chapter in the evolution of Hockey as a sport and cultural phenomenon.

So welcome to the site. If you wish to participate in the site through comments or to become a guest writer, you can register for an account.
