Afternoon Delight:

Some neat stuff on Greatest Hockey Legends about hockey nicknames and small players who have been successful in the NHL. There is always some fascinating information at this site.
James Mirtle has another installment of Where Hockey Players Come From. Tough to argue with these states’ track records, but newcomers like California and Arizona will have something to say soon.
An article about Jordan Schroeder, a likely 1st round selection in this spring’s NHL Entry Draft. (Hat tip to Western College Hockey Blog) Dynamic little player.
Might Canada’s WJC team be without representation from the QMJHL? Good luck with that. Its politically dangerous to try this in Canada. Good thing Parliament isn’t in session.
Deep Thoughts by Paul Kukla. Interesting points.
The weekly Hot List from The Hockey News. Good info, as always.
It may be just a little early, but Alan Muir of SI has a mock draft up. Wow, he is way ahead of the curve. He has put some thought into the selections, however.
