Vintage T.J. Fox Fight

I found this interesting fight of T.J. Fox when he played in the AHL for the Worcester Sharks, and figured you guys would enjoy it.

Fox played two years at Union where he was one of the best players on the team. In 66 games he totaled 21 goals, 36 assists, and 57 points. He also accumulated 88 penalty minutes.

He left Union after two years when he signed with the San Jose Sharks. He played for Worcester for two seasons where in 150 games he tallied 19 goals and 23 assists for 42 points. In the 2008-2009 season he picked up 15 penalty minutes, where at least five of those minutes came from this fight.

Fox left the US after playing the 2009-2010 season in the Pittsburgh Penguins organization, and currently plays in Germany for the Hannover Indians along with Mike Schreiber '10 and Lane Caffaro '09. He's third on the team with 14 goals and 31 points. (Fox's Career stats)

Looking back on Fox's decision to leave school early, it looks like it hasn't worked out. Maybe guys like Keith Kinkaid should talk to guys like Fox to help figure out if it's worth leaving school early.

Enjoy the fight!



I know that I've already shown this video before, but as I bonus I figured I'd show a highlight from Fox's time in Schenectady;

College Hockey Video of the Week (11/29/10): Union "Throwback" Video from 2006-2007 season

To me this is a "throwback" video because I was not at Union and neither were any of the current Dutchmen. In this video you get to see some of our favorite past Dutchmen like T.J. Fox, Justin Mrazek, and Lane Caffaro.

This is footage from overtime when Union hosted #10 Clarkson on January 20, 2007. The Golden Knights held the nation's longest unbeaten streak at the time, while the Dutchmen were en route to a last place finish in the ECAC standings. For the game recap click here.

The 2006-2007 was an awful season for Union as they finished in dead last in the ECAC standings with a 7-14-1 record... but look at Union College hockey now!

P.S. Look for a young "UnionHockeyManiac" (aka Will Friedman) at the 2:23 mark.

Union Hockey notes: 6/24/10

Former Union forward T.J. Fox has signed a contract with the Hannover Indians (Germany). He will be joining Mike Schreiber who recently signed with the Indians after a stellar senior year in Schenectady. Fox was a star in his short stint in Schenectady, but left after signing a pro contract. Since then he has been pretty disappointing and is possibly regretting his decision to leave Union early. For more on Fox go to ECAC Hockey.com.

Also, Union goaltender Keith Kinkaid has been invited to the New York Rangers Prospect Camp. According to the Rangers website Keith is the only goaltender that was invited to attend the camp. For more on the camp click here. Kinkaid was also invited to the Vancouver Canucks Prospect Camp.

Wilkes-Barre/Scranton also recalls TJ Fox

A few days after the W-B/S Penguins recalled Lane Caffaro they recalled former Union forward TJ Fox from the Wheeling Nailers. Fox, one of the greatest forwards in Union's history, has scored 11 points in 10 games for the Nailers this season.
