The point is a term in ice hockey to indicate a position inside the opposition's blue line along the edges of the rink.
Description
A player in the opponent's end zone at the junction of the blue line with the boards is said to be at the point. Usually the players at the two points are the defencemen. On the power play the players playing at these positions are always known as the points, though one of the positions is sometimes played by a forward.
The point's responsibilities include attempting to keep the puck in the offensive zone when the defensive team attempts to clear (see also Offside (ice hockey)), receiving a pass from the forwards to allow the play to reset, and taking slapshots at the goal, hoping to score, create a rebound or a deflection. On the power play, one of the players playing the point is typically the "quarterback" - that is, the one who controls (through passing) where the puck goes, and also takes lots of shots.
Given the difficulty of scoring directly from the point due to the distance to the goal, goals scored from the point are typically either on screens, or are tipped goals.
WJLK (94.3 FM, "The Point") is a Hot Adult Contemporary radio station. The station broadcasts on the 94.3 FM frequency. Their variety of music stretches from bands such as Maroon 5 to Kelly Clarkson or Lady Gaga. The station is owned by Townsquare Media Group in New Jersey. Its transmitter is located near exit 100 along the Garden State Parkway in Tinton Falls, New Jersey. It is the sister station of 105.7 The Hawk and 1310 WADB.
History
WJLK was created due to a New Jersey newspaper, The Asbury Park Press, wanting to spread into the still newly forming radio business in the 1940s. Originally destined to be WDJT at 104.3, by November 1946 the call letters had changed to WJLK, to honor the late J. Lyle Kinmonth. Kinmonth had been a pioneering publisher for the Press, and died the previous year. In addition, shortly before the first broadcast, the station changed from the 104.3 to the 94.3 megacycles.
The station's first broadcast took place on November 20, 1947, Kinmonth's birthday. When WJLK opened, it was one of an estimated 75 FM radio stations nationwide. WJLK also made history as the first FCC licensed radio station in New Jersey. The station was dedicated to news, and at this time broadcast from 6:30 A.M to midnight Monday through Saturday, and 8 A.M to midnight on Sundays.
WBSU (89.1 FM) is a radio station licensed to Brockport, New York, USA, the station serves the entire western New York region and into Toronto. WBSU is known better today as 89.1 The Point. The station is currently owned by State University of New York.
History
The Radio Club began at College at Brockport in the late 1950s and, shortly thereafter, efforts began to acquire a FM frequency. Starting in 1957, the Radio Club began broadcasting via public address to the student union on the Brockport campus. On May 1, 1964, the station, then known as WBSN began transmitting to the entire campus via telephone lines. In January 1970, the station moved into its present facilities in the Seymour College Union and became WBSU-AM.
Following many years of hard work and patience, WBSU-FM was born on January 14, 1981 with 10 watts at 88.9. Thanks to the efforts of many people including the FM Task Force, Lloyd Trufelman, Dr, Melvin Smagorinsky, Edward Rothstein, Chief Engineer Bernard Lynch, Brian Issacson, Dr. Fred Powell, Martha Walstrum, Frank Filardo, Terrin Hover, Harry Goldberg, Scott Fishman and many others, the dream finally became a reality. The first General Manager was David Van Wie and he spearheaded an immediate power increase to 150 watts in May of that year. Following Van Wie four years later was Timothy Lyman who was instrumental in the May, 1989 move to 89.1 at 7,338 watts where The Point now stands.
