Hockey hockey hockey hockey hockey -- hockey all the time.

Denis Smith draws our attention to Puckstruck, a blog on the culture of hockey and vice versa with a fair share of historical sensibility.

Sample Puckstruck item, drawn from the New Yorker of November 27, 1937:
The young lady who sat behind us at last Sunday’s hockey game remained silent through the first period, evidently spellbound. Then she remarked to her escort, “I don’t know who these idiots are, but they certainly know how to skate.”
