Leave them the way they are. Why must everyone want to change things that don't have to be changed, then the things that NEED to be changed remain the same...

They won't change the names, why change something that isn't broken. They need to change Bettman out and get someone who is better for Hockey than him, even though he has done a hell of a job, that is something that needs a new fresh face. |

What a terrible insult to the legacies and accomplishments of the original figures, after whom the trophies were purchased, commissioned and dedicated. Art Ross, James Norris, Georges Vezina, Frank Calder, Conn Smythe, David Hart...these guys were what? Chopped liver? Too wrong for words. |

Not one person who's name would be chosen as a replacement per that list would accept the 'honor'. What a joke of an idea. |

Just to be sure, we're not lambasting Wyshynski, right? If I read that right, he's in favor of changing the division and conference names, and not the trophies. Which brings me to this point - I am ALL sorts of in favor of changing the conference and division names. |

HEY EVERYONE! Rory Boylen has a blog entry that tells people who want to change the trophy names to STFU THN.com Blog: "Hands off hockey's rich award history" I agree with the overarching point of his entry - you don't know who George Vezina or Art Ross or Conn Smythe or Jack Adams is? Git off your ass and go find out! |

Git off your ass and go find out! Couldn't agree more, Phil. Changing the names of these awards is a major chunk taken out of what is left of the game of hockey. They've tinkered with this, fucked up that and now it's, "Oh, lets trash one of the few pieces of history the game has left. It's not 'In' to see the stars of today have their names linked to old farts like Art Ross, James Norris and Conn Smythe." Fuck. You. Rename the Divisions if you like. Hell, go back to the Wales and Campbell Conf. That would be awesome. Touch the Hardware, and you're asking for a beating. People in Canada got all pissy when they were going to rename the Grey Cup a season or two ago. Magine what would happen in hockey if they fucked with these legendary names? That's just a train wreck waiting to happen. |
