What would you be expecting as Dudley's role (as opposed to title)? Would he fit into the new scouting structure? Maybe "player evaluation". (I know little of his previous role and expertise, so this is a general query about where people could see him fit).

One of the kids I teach has family there so visits regularly and tells me good things.

That would be awesome!

New doggo soon. Need to wait until he's 8 weeks til we pick him up (12 days from now). None of my sneak Sabres names have been accepted by Mrs and Jnr ?Dylan and Jeff(!) Were actually in contention for a while.

Vegas possibly out of contention as potential hub city. Could be all in Canada (of it still goes ahead). https://985thesportshub.com/2020/06/30/report-vegas-no-longer-a-frontrunner-as-nhl-hub-city/

Oo, tell me more....

We have an advantage of being a small and spread out country to be fair. Masks are worn on public transport. Only recently have we been allowed to meet with another families outside and with social distancing. Everyone (almost) seems to be getting on with it reasonably well. Track and trace is only coming into effect this week or last I think. First Minister has been more strict than our London overlords and looks like it has paid off. edit to add: also its been raining here since February and nothing is open so most folk have been staying at home lol.

In positive news, over here in Scotland we have had 4 days and no covid deaths!

Rossi is my hope, but I am getting good vibes on Lundell. I think he would fit perfectly into the roster with Jack and Dylan. Some great info on Lundell via Devils SBNation page (blame google). https://www.allaboutthejersey.com/2020/4/3/21199181/anton-lundell-2020-nhl-draft-prospect-profile-potentially-elite-all-around-center-out-of-liiga-hifk Highlights Kournianos likes Lundell’s defensive game as many others do, but he’s also pretty high on his offensive game, citing his strength and decisiveness which allows him to back off defenders and push through contact, even in a league where he is one of the youngest players. Will scouch Anton Lundell might not have a massive ceiling, but he could be a fantastic two-way centre who may not get fans out of their seats often, but he could be a person hockey nerds and coaches alike love. He pushes possession extremely well and should be a valuable NHLer for years, if not on boxes of cereal across the league. Over at The Hockey Writers, Chris Faria pushes back on some of the assessments that question the ceiling for Lundell. This profile emphasizes his elite hockey sense and smarts as a player that puts him in the right spots on the ice to consistently make plays.

Pickwise, if Rossi is gone as many suspect then I like what I am reading about Lundell. Needs to work on skating, but a solid and reliable 2 way C. http://www.mynhldraft.com/2020-nhl-draft/player-profiles/Anton-Lundell

The transparency is most definitely an issue.

Gonna be the Pens isn't it?

Playin team wins it!! WTAF?

Moved down wasn't it?

Rubbish

Over optimism Post alert. I think we get #1 to let RJ herald us into the playoffs with the remix.... La La La La Laaah La Lafreniere

I suppose the off-season is the time for these kind off theoreticals. It would be a brave GM that would trade Eichel. A couple of first rounders AND bona-fide star prospects..... its interesting to contemplate nonetheless.

Its also a little blasé to suggest that "X" deaths are acceptable.

Its on the ole utyoob.

I only have to endure a week and a half of online teaching until I'm on my summer holidays. Yippee.

Could they not just tell the engraver to do it in Comic Sans? Problem solved.

How does that even work. E.g the Oilers get to save 6.25M if they apply it to McDs contract? And get to save the most?

One of Scotlands finest. If you can understand him, you may be eligible for a Scottish passport!!
