The Hockey News

"The Hockey News" is a North American hockey magazine published by Transcontinental. "The Hockey News", or THN, was founded in 1947 by Ken McKenzie and Bill Cote, and has since been perhaps the most recognized hockey publication in North America. THN publishes three times per month from September to March, four times in April, twice in May, and once each in June, July and August. THN also releases their Future Watch issue in March, and Draft Preview issue in May.

The magazine principally covers the National Hockey League, relying on local beat writers to cover each team. It has readership of 225,000 people per issue. Smaller sections cover minor league, junior, college and international hockey. In addition to its weekly edition, THN also produces six special publications, such as its annual 'Yearbook' and pool guide, its prospect issue, and its "Best of Everything in Hockey" series.

THN is available through subscription in North America and Europe and digitally to the rest of the world. It is also available at many newsstands in North America.

Jason Kay is the current editor-in-chief and its senior writer is Ken Campbell. Its online writer who also contributes to the print issue is Adam Proteau.

TSN broadcaster Bob McKenzie (no relation to the founder) is a former editor-in-chief, as is TSN producer, Steve Dryden.

In 2008 the staff of THN participated in the choosing of the IIHF Centennial All-Star Team.
