BCBoy Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Does anybody know what happened to the Official NHL Yearbook?The first one I have was the 1994 edition with Federov on the coverthen all the way to the 2004 edition with Bertuzzi on the cover (other's had Giguere)Obviously "Faceoff" didn't come out with a 2005 edition but I was wondering if they were going to come out with a 2006 editionI don't know if I'd buy it any way because of the way they have been going downhill in the past 2/3 years, after Wordsport properties no longer was part of the productionAnybody know a website where I could find further details about the yearbook?

randyc Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 i'm sure it'll come out, just wait until around the end of September which is usually when they come out, maybe even sooner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted August 4, 2005 Author Share Posted August 4, 2005 Mmm...it'll be pretty hard to get it out that soon if they don't even know who will be on each team though. They can't really right up something about a team unless they know how much talent there is on the teams since many of the teams will/have changed drastically.Couple things about the magazine I've noticed:1. They took away the playoff review when they showed the series breakdown in each round2. Less pictures3. New font sucks, writing is very spaced out4. Overall, look doesn't have the same "YEARBOOK" feel anymore5. Price goes UP while magazine goes DOWN Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BCBoy Posted August 5, 2005 Author Share Posted August 5, 2005 The Hockey News always puts out a great one each year! Yes, I agree, I've bought there last 3 season previews and still look at them today looking at the roster changes over the years. The magazine has really improved a lot every year while the Official NHL Yearbook has gone downhill the last 2 years Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The magazine has really improved a lot every year while the Official NHL Yearbook has gone downhill the last 2 years Hockey News one is always good, I've bought that one for the last 10 years or so. The Official Yearbook always had the coolest pictures. The lighting always seemed to be perfect for their shots. First Official Yearbook I had was 1995, with *EDIT* Leetch (thanks Puckguy) on the cover...First year I really became a hockey fan. Smart is believing half of what you hear. Genius is knowing which half. Â Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puckguy14 Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 I thought Faceoff took over for the former supplier. As for the cover boys...1991-92: Brett Hull1992-93: Mark Messier1993-94: Mario Lemieux1994-95: Brian Leetch1995-96: Eric Lindros1996-97: Joe Sakic1997-98: Paul Kariya1998-99: Jaromir Jagr1999-2000: Wayne Gretzky2000-01: Chris Pronger2001-02: Joe Sakic2002-03: Niklas Lidstrom2003-04: Jean-Sebastien GiguereI liked the original format, however a refreshed design was good. 2004 San Jose Sharks 7th Man Fan of the Year San Jose Gold Miners - 4x Lombardi Cup Champions Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BCBoy Posted August 5, 2005 Author Share Posted August 5, 2005 I have different covers on the Faceoff Yearbooks than you, probably because they made a different cover for Canada.1992: Brett Hull (Inside Publisher)1993: Mario Lemieux (Inside Publisher)1994: Sergei Federov (Faceoff)1995: Doug Gilmore1996: Eric Lindros1997: Joe Sakic1998: Paul Kariya1999: Dominic Hasek2000: Wayne Gretzky2001: Chris Pronger2002: Joe Sakic2003: Jarome Iginla2004: Todd BertuzziI liked the original format, however a refreshed design was good. I'm not a fan of the refreshed design at all. I think they took out something they were great at, and that was photography. They have less of everything, but since it is so spaced out it looks like a lot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
