I'll try and watch closer tonight but it's going to be tough taking my eyes off Jack.

Looking forward to seeing Jack. But may be more excited to see if we can get last year's Reinhart back now.

I thought he looked pretty good. His ability to strip the puck and create turnovers is a thing of beauty.

I like the idea of Jack on the PK. Threat of a shorty looms large.

Didn't DD say yesterday that Kulikov was week-to-week? Maybe I misread that.

I'm not sure. I also don't entirely agree with this rule. I would like to see it changed whereas rather than having to play 4 full years in junior they can only play 3. That way post draft year they would still have to play in the CHL but then there's the potential to move on after that. Or each team is allotted one exception to the rule.

Feels like the eve of the regular season again.....

Bailey scored at 0.85 pts/game his post draft year. Baptiste scored at 1.37 pts/game his post draft year. Pu is at a pace of 1.83 pts/game his post draft year.

The rule is to protect the OHL (really the entire CHL for that matter). The CHL is one of the best developmental leagues and the rule is in place to keep the league competitive. Otherwise every team would sent their best prospects to the AHL. I don't love the rule and I think there should be some exceptions but that is why it is in place.

I can see if I can dig up this stat but I've watched some of London's games and he looks legit. His stats are not being propped up by secondary assists. He is their number one centre and plays top like PP and top like PK minutes. I don't have the stat handy but I believe he also has a great faceoff percentage. Edit - just found his faceoff percentage is over 64% which is pretty incredible. He's the ROR of the London Knights for sure.

Yep. He had a goal and an assist in London's Friday game and a goal in their Saturday game. He has been unbelievably consistent. He gets points in nearly every game. It's not as if a hot streak or two has skewed the stats.

You beat me to this comment!

Oh man that's close. In PPR I would probably lean Cooper but my record is garbage so I donno.

All of these conflicting reports :blink:

I was on the fence between Edelman and Adams in my flex spot. Went with Adams and it just cost me the game.

That was my exact first thought.

ROR is almost ready to go? That's good news.

*Rant* What a unwatchable product this team is right now. Yes, I know we have injuries but I'm sick of leaf fans hassling me every God Damn morning because the leafs put up 'another 6 goal game'. That's two 6 spots in a row. Has Buffalo scored 12 all season? . We were suppose to be atleast a year ahead of them in the rebuild. Have they just gone soring by us in the blink of an eye? How come they're a fun team to watch with lot's of goal scoring? What's gone wrong? Is it just injuries? What the hell is happening with this franchise??? The tank was suppose to fix all of this. Is it just injuries and things will be better in a month or two? Atleast there was direction with the tank. Now we're just wallowing in 'grind those down' mode with a lifeless team full of players that I don't give two shits about. Wasn't this suppose to be the year we take that step? What the is going on?!?!?! *Rant*

Appreciated. That does help.

Please can I get an update on how Nylander looks incredible and the skill he will bring in a year or two will be unbelievable? Like maybe we can score 2 goals (or gasp more) a game once in a while.

No chance Juolevi is involved in any trade not including Reinhart, ROR or Eichel. Kane ain't getting us near that.

Appreciated. Got pretty tight after that early Green TD. Good luck the rest of the way.

:lol: Also a reminder that Whiskey is not part of the Avatar challenge so if you find yourself in second last with him behind than you will find yourself with a new Avatar come mid December (or whenever the regular season ends).

Ya I remember Rodrigues playing a few last year. He looked alright. Can't believe it's not even Thanksgiving and the enthusiasm in this place (mine included) appears to be near an all time low. I miss Jack :cry:

Ya I'm done with drafting overweight RB's hahahahahhaa. The only picks I'm satisfied with is getting Evans in the third round and Ware in one of the last rounds. Other than that it's been another disappointing season. I'm starting to get the hang of this PPR though. WR have way more value. I knew it was more but my drafting strategy has to change.
