Only a few days are left before the new KHL season begins. So, the clubs have already made public the list of new squads and are undertaking the last preparations. In this off-season period, most of the teams have made a lot of transfers. Due to this, the balance of power within the KHL may change significantly.
Ridgewood NJ, Wayne Gretzky, is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player and former head coach. He played 20 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) for four teams from 1979 to 1999. Nicknamed “The Great One”, he has been called “the greatest hockey player ever” by many sportswriters, players, and the NHL itself. He is the leading scorer in NHL history, with more goals and assists than any other player. He scored more assists than any other player scored total points, and is the only NHL player to total over 200 points in one season – a feat he accomplished four times. In addition, he tallied over 100 points in 16 professional seasons, 14 of them consecutive. At the time of his retirement in 1999, he held 61 NHL records: 40 regular-season records, 15 playoff records, and six All-Star records. As of 2014, he still holds 60 NHL records.

Hockey Preview: Ridgewood skates to strong start

THE RIDGEWOOD NEWS
Two games do not a season make, but for the Ridgewood High School ice hockey team, its first two outings did begin to paint a portrait of the 2014-15 campaign. And, judging by some of the base colors, the picture looks bright for the Maroons.
With the early November start, RHS got a pair of games in the books over Thanksgiving weekend. It opened with an 8-0 defeat of Passaic Valley/Cedar Grove on Saturday before falling to state power Ramsey, 5-2, on Sunday.
While the former result was somewhat expected, the game with Ramsey is the one that opened some eyes. The Maroons impressed many people with their effort against last season’s State Public B runner-up — including Rams head coach Bob Toy, who complimented his Ridgewood counterpart afterward.
“He [Toy] told me that he felt we’re capable of playing with the Mennen [Division] teams,” Maroon coach Mike Lucchesi said, referring to the top flight of the powerful Morris County Hockey League. “He was very complimentary, and that was really nice to hear coming from him.”
Ridgewood will get the chance to prove those words right later in the season when it plays Randolph and Morris Knolls, two Mennen Cup contenders, in non-conference games. Next up is tonight’s Big North Patriot (formerly Gold) Division meeting with River Dell/Westwood at the Ice House in Hackensack.
