Over at huffingtonpost.com, Nancy Armour has written an enthralling piece about Head Games, the documentary movie that is to be released today.
"We've got to get past this, ‘Little kids involved in a pillow fight' mentality," concussion guru Chris Nowinski tells Armour. "If parents knew what I knew, they would not be tolerating a lot of things in the sports world that they are. We are clearly exposing children to needless risk, and we're not upset about it. And we should be."
That story is right here.

Brendan Shinnimin of the Tri-City Americans
has had more than one goaltender in his sights
in the month of February.
(Photo by John Allen / AridAcres.com)

 The Brendan Shinnimin Show played in front of 3,654 fans at the ShoWare Centre in Kent, Wash., on Sunday night.
Pick one . . . Amazing! Incredible!! Out of sight!!!
Shinnimin scored the game’s first four goals as his Tri-City Americans beat the host Seattle Thunderbirds 5-1 and moved into first place in the U.S. Division, the Western Conference and the WHL’s overall standings, all at the same time.
But first things first . . .
Shinnimin went into the game with 48 goals this season; he came out with 52, the third player in the WHL to get to 50 this season.
Shinnimin, a 20-year-old from Winnipeg, scored at 16:17 and 19:04 of the first period, and 1:21 and 11:23 of the second. The last three of those came via the PP.
He also drew an assist on a PP goal by F Adam Hughesman at 3:08 of the third period. That goal, his 38th, got Hughesman to 98 points.
The third member of that line, Patrick Holland, picked up four more assists. He has 96 points, including a WHL-leading 73 assists.
But back to Shinnimin. . . .
He now has 115 points and leads the WHL scoring race by 10 points over F Mark Stone of the Brandon Wheat Kings. With 52 goals, Shinnimin is tied with Portland Winterhawks F Ty Rattie, one behind F Emerson Etem of the Medicine Hat Tigers.
Shinnimin has career highs in goals (52), assists (63) and points (115), having reached those numbmers in 59 games. His previous highs were 34 goals, 62 assists and 96 points, all coming in 60 games last season.
Shinnimin is the first Tri-City skater to get to 50 goals in one season since Dylan Gyori in 1998-99. Gyori finished with 53.
Shinnimin also has goals in 10 straight games, with 21 goals in those games.
Now for the mind-boggling part of this . . .
In his last four games, Shinnimin has put up 19 points, including 11 goals. He has a four-goal game and two three-goal efforts. In 13 February games, Shinnimin has scored 23 goals and added 18 assists. That, folks, adds up to 41 points, which is a good season for a lot of players.
The Americans also have won each of those four games which, combined with other outcomes, has moved them back to the top of the WHL’s overall standings.
G Drew Owsley, a former teammate now with the Prince George Cougars, tweeted: “At this space, @ShinboSlice might score his 60th on me in a couple of weeks. #uhoh”
And there was this tweet from Hughesman: “Congrats to @ShinboSlice for 50 goals. Honestly speechless and have no words to describe/tweet about his month.”
Earlier in the day, Jeremy Schappert, a former Seattle skater who is from Winnipeg, tweeted: “Dear Brendan Shinnimin, How are you doing this?”

Report, was in action on the weekend.

Meanwhile, the Thunderbirds lost F Branden Troock to a cross-checking major and game misconduct at 19:05 of the second period. According to the online scoresheet, Seattle D Cason Machacek received a game misconduct — there is no explanation or accompanying penalty — at 15:40 of the third period. . . .

The Thunderbirds and Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western Washington and Alaska held their annual Hockey Challenge on Saturday and Sunday in Kent, Wash.
Included in the weekend festivities were the Thunderbirds’ two home games, along with the All-Star Game on Saturday that includes local celebrities and media personalities, along with alumni from the WHL team. And, yes, it turns out that Taking Note was represented. Garth MacBeth, who does such a remarkable job on The MacBeth Report, suited up and we have a photograph to prove it. . . . The Hockey Challenge began in 1998, according to a news release, “when hockey-playing Microsoft employees, with the help of the Thunderbirds, took an in-house rivalry public and decided to raise money the Ronald McDonald House Charities of Western Washington and Alaska (RMHC). Since inception, the Challenge has raised more than $4 million for RMHC, which provides a home-away-from-home for children and their families during medical treatment, making each day a little easier.”

ASK THE COMMISSIONER:
Paul Kelly, squeezed out as executive director of College Hockey Inc., tells Kevin Paul Dupont of the Boston Globe that he isn’t sure where he’s going from here, but . . .
“Ideally, I’d like to stay in hockey,” Kelly told Dupont. “I’m grateful for the opportunity the commissioners gave me, and now I’m going to take some of the advice I’ve given to a lot of college-aged hockey players the last couple of years: back away a bit and not leap at the first thing that comes along. When you do that, it often forecloses what can be even better opportunities.
“But I know I love the game, and would equally love the chance to stay in it, be that with the NHL, a team’s front office, international hockey, wherever.
“I know we did some very good things at CHI, and I know I leave there with it in good hands. I truly believe it has the chance to thrive.’’
So, Mr. Commissioner, why doesn’t the CHL hire Kelly as its president, a move that would allow David Branch to focus entirely on his position as commissioner of the OHL?
Hey, it was just a thought!

Three cheers to the Lethbridge Hurricanes for the decision to dedicate the ENMAX Centre’s new media centre in honour of Steve Fallwell.
If you missed it, here are a few excerpts from the news release:
The Lethbridge Hurricanes Hockey Club and the Hurricanes/Bronco's Alumni Association is very proud to announce this new media centre will be dubbed the Steve (Foggy) Fallwell Media Centre.
“This was a proud decision to for the Board of Directors to make in honoring a man of Steve Fallwell's calibre,” said Dick Gibson, the chair of the Alumni Association. “Foggy was known in Lethbridge and Southern Alberta as 'the voice' of the Lethbridge Hurricanes and the Lethbridge Broncos and carries with him a sterling reputation for professionalism and integrity.”
Fallwell was the play-by-play voice of the Lethbridge Broncos for 11 seasons. . . . Following the hockey void of 1985-86, he returned as the voice of the Hurricanes in 1986-87. He continued to entertain hockey fans until midway through the 1996-97 season, when a sudden illness brought his broadcasting career to a halt.
Fallwell had several offers throughout his career to join the professional ranks, however he remained in Lethbridge to focus on the Hurricanes and Southern Alberta. His involvement in the Lethbridge sports scene extended far beyond the hockey rink as he tirelessly promoted other local sports, ranging from baseball, basketball, football, and curling to soccer, swimming, volleyball, and track and field.
Over the course of his play-by-play career Fallwell covered more than 1,400 regular -season junior hockey games. In 1996, he was inducted into the Lethbridge Sports Hall of Fame in the Special Award category. In 1998 he was inducted into the Alberta Sports Hall of Fame and received the Bell Memorial Award for Media. In 2007 Fallwell joined Steve Tambellini and Jamie McLennan as the first ever inductees into the Lethbridge Hurricanes/Broncos Alumni Hall of Fame.
Fallwell released the following statement:
"Really, there are no words that could possibly describe how I feel about this announcement. I am touched and deeply honored. I am very much looking forward to seeing the 'new’ ENMAX Centre, and of course the new Media Centre.  Also, my most sincere congratulations to the Lethbridge Hurricanes on their 25th Anniversary. My time broadcasting and travelling with the Lethbridge Broncos and the Lethbridge Hurricanes is extremely memorable. As always, I will be in the stands for the 2011-2012 season cheering them on. Again, my most sincere "Thank You" to the Lethbridge City Council, the management of the ENMAX Centre, and the Board of the Directors of the Lethbridge Hurricanes for this great honour."
