About

My first and only sports love is ice hockey. I got into it around the age of six and since then have been hooked. I played extensively, watched extensively, and read as much about it as I can. I am a Detroit Red Wings fan at heart, but I love the game just a tad more than I love my team.

The reason I got into blogging in the first place was just to have people to talk hockey with. I encourage you to comment on my articles or profile and let me know what you think about whatever. I'm always down for some hockey conversation.

Feel free to drop me an email at franklin.steele.writes@gmail.com.

Short List

  • Favorite Athletes

    Steve Yzerman, Henrick Zetterberg, Pavel Datsyuk, Darren Helm, Chris Stewart, Ryan Miller

  • Favorite Sports Teams

    Detroit Red Wings

  • Favorite Coaches

    Mike Babcock

  • All Time Sports Moment

    Darren McCarty dusting Ron Hextall for the Cup clinching goal to end the drought.

  • Most Memorable Game Attended

    Still waiting on this one. Being a hockey fan in Indiana is not easy, far as this goes.

  • Most Unbreakable Sports Record

    Gretzky getting to 50 goals so quickly. Ridiculous.

  • Gretzky or Orr?

    Tough question, and one that is a little before my time. I'm more seasoned for an Ovie vs. Sid debate.

  • Petty or Earnhardt?

    Ugh.

  • ACC, Big 12, Big East, Big Ten, Pac-12 or SEC?

    NHL, AHL, ECHL, QMJHL, OHL, KHL...

    Miss reading you're articles on the Wings. You seem to be one of the only writers on this site that take a sober approach and not panic, throw the team under the bus, and demand half the team should be traded when they lose one game.

    Although Sean has given you a nice little summary I suspect that you want more. Now I am not trying to be sarcastic, but the speech is in straight foreword English prose.

    If you are interested in a fantasy hockey league I need a few more owners in an established yahoo league. It's the 7th year for my H2H points based league. Live draft is tomorrow night at 7:30. All of the owners are active all season. League ID is 34284 password is 1. I look forward to seeing you.
