  1. Don't count in Shinkaruk, he is damaged goods (and I'm not referring to his broken hip)
  2. That can be rather easy, how is it monitored/scored/recorded/etc
  3. You are forgiven if you forget about the Saskatoon Wild this season, it seems that they are in the unenviable position of neither sucking enough to be made fun of, nor winning enough to be feared and talked about. A quick look at its roster shows more of the same, for prospect watchers there is only one draft eligible player worth notice right now, and at this time he comes with as many questions as answers. That player is Lars Strummer. After a rather uneventful Super Cup, where he averaged less then twelve minutes per game, and managed to chip in a couple of points, Strummer came into the VHLM season with question marks. He is on a team with less talent then other teams, his own practice record is spotty at best, and being the quiet guy he is, he is easy to be missed on the VHL website. While there are blemishes to his game and record, Strummer is currently leading the Wild in points with thirty-one in twenty-three games, and has been able to transfer his two way game from junior to the pro ranks in terms of his face off percentages which currently sits just under 60% efficiency. With that said, a stronger second half for Stummer should help and catch the attention of the VHL scouts. For Strummer this means picking up his physical play and continuing to get the stats scouts love seeing when doing their scouting reports. A continued progression will also help the Wild stay in the playoff hunt. Currently the Wild are both seven points ahead for the last North American playoff spot, and the same seven points away from catching the first place Minot Gladiators. Despite being a forgetabout team in the VHL, the Wild aren't worried. The great thing about the VHLM level is things can change drastically and happen in a hurry. With its current posting system and a few good bounces any team can turn the corner and become a contender, or at least that is the game plan.
  4. I spend too much time on Twitter Can that be a point tasked item?
  5. First multipoint game. Heck yes
  6. Not to be an asshole, but if it's a penalty shouldnt it be called?
  7. Wouldn't be hard to get a seven dollar cotton shirt, use a good printer and transfer it on the shirt.
  8. Guess the county has done nothing for you?
  9. If player x does not make my countries team, go everyone else #homer #fuckpatriotism
  10. A good read, my opinion from Matt Barnaby http://mattbarnabyhockey.tumblr.com/post/69429950769/december-7th-a-night-to-forget
  11. True but they are equally malicious and reckless
  12. I am in the minority that thought Neals actions are equal to Thornton. In any event I would love to see the suspensions doubled as well as fines.
  13. If the season ended today, I believe Buffalo would have the top two picks.
  14. With junior hockey bridging with IIHF tournaments. TSN could brand themselves with hockey Canada and the fact they are the gurus of the games future (ties into U-20). Probably will have to cut some staff though, but I think lots of hockey people have a special appreciation for the junior game cause its about passion and not pay cheques (to a certain point).
  15. This means more of that god awful SN panel and with all the CDN PBP guys (save Hughson) working for Bell/TSN we are left with second rate garbage quality. TSN should pick up junior hockey, wouldn't be hard to beat SN quality.
  16. The VHL hasn't been top of mind for Lars Strummer, but he has a bit if an excuse; Grey Cup 101. "My agent announced my intentions while I was partying in Regina," explains Strummer. "I havn't paid much attention, but to my defense I've kinda been drunk the last seven days. Riderville has been great, tghe people are fantastic here but I think we drank the rest of the country dry. However with the party winding down, it is time for me to get back into the hockey mode and time to get some practice time in before I play an actual game." Just who that team will be in which Strummer will play for has not been sorted out, Lars knows it will sort itself over the next few days. "I don't care where I end up, I know it's just a temporary stop gap before I get to where I truly want to be. If I play a playoff game great, if not so be it. The (VHLM) draft is just around the corner so that will be a bit of finalization for me."
