The irony is astonishing.

If only there were clues I could have left behind, such as written words. If only... But who knows, maybe it's a just a mystery of the universe.

Good job, buddy! You're halfway there! Keep going, you might reach the end. I've got a participation trophy ready for you when you do.

Reading is a hard, strenuous exercise, I know.

It was time to worry about Mesar in October 2023 when he couldn't put numbers in the OHL and he had no impact whatsoever on the games. C'est la vie.

I'm biased towards the Q because I watch more games from that league than all the other leagues combined. I like Desnoyers a lot and I'd be thrilled with him. That isn't to say I prefer him to the players in the other leagues, I'm just not familiar enough with them. Wheeler having Carbonneau...

If Suzuki's your #1 and/or best center, you'll be the best team in the battle for the wild card position year over year. But if the goal's to make consistent playoff pushes? Good luck with that.

Incorrect. What you, and many here including myself, always do is set arbitrary boundaries and call those universal facts when all of this is opinion based. Suzuki is one of the 32 best centers in the league. That doesn't make him elite, that doesn't make him a franchise center, that doesn't...

By that definition, Samuel Montembault is a #1 goalie in the league considering that there are, after all, only 32 starting positions in the league and Montembault isn't 33rd on that list. You really want to play that game?

If you want to call a cat a dog and say that China's northern frontier is on the western front of Chile, then sure. By all means. In that fictional world, Suzuki is definitely a #1 center. However, since I don't subscribe to your lack of critical thought, I'll keep calling him what he actually...

A lot harder to maintain a higher level of play in January/February when your team is bereft of talent. Which is entirely normal. Still no #1 center, d-man or goalie on the current roster. It's far from being done.

You sure about that? Once upon a time, Francois Beauchemin was averaging more ice time that Niedermayer & Pronger in Anaheim. Nobody actually thought, yeah, legit first pairing player. I'd strongly argue he's playing those minutes by default because the alternative on the left side would be...

This is the guy I want in the draft: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PhL6Mrj1As

If he reaches it, maybe Pietrangelo light? But right now, after coming from Europe & missing a prime year to play in Laval, I don't know what the outlook is.

Yup. When I watched him play in Halifax, I never thought in a thousand years Marchand would become even a decent NHLer, let alone a player who might sniff the HHOF one day. hairnova & others from the region who watched the Mooseheads can attest to this, Marchand was a legendary douchebag. Brad...
