I had a guy argue with me that Toronto is going to get a second team. "It would be just like the Mets and Yankees," he said. So, there's always that option.

Mayoral election October 17. The rich, conservative oil barons who own the Flames don't like Calgary's young, progressive Mayor, and want to influence Flames fans to vote for a more business-friendly candidate (read: one who'll let them build their multi-billion-dollar sports complex without spending a dime of their own money).

I tried explaining this point, that MLSE fights any other team coming close to their turf and again, he said, "They don't care about that. It doesn't bother them." I just gave up at that point.

I'm glad the Oilers didn't draft Alex DeBrincat and instead went for Tyler Benson. What's that? Benson's made of glass? Oh dear.

He's like 5'7" which was the only reason why he fell all the way to the 2nd round.

yeah if you as a player are firmly bought into that "keep your head down, play your game, do your job" hockey robot mentality then it's not a stretch to see how PK would bother that

Hand Knit posted:I mean, he was also like the 4th or 5th best forward in an insanely stacked top 6, so people were also skeptical of how much of his production was him. When he was with McDavid? He was at worst 3rd behind him and Strome. In his draft year Strome put up more points, but I'd say that DeBrincat was team MVP. He fell entirely due to size, going off production he was one of the top 2 or 3 CHLers in the 2016 draft. With that said, he's very generously listed at 5'7 and if you didn't watch him play you'd have some serious concerns. With that said, he plays a lot like Gallagher or Fleury in that he makes a point of bee-lining for the net and leaping into battles in the corner probably because of a chip on his shoulder after being told he was too small for so long. I have my doubts that he'll be a big time scorer in the NHL, but I wouldn't be surprised if he put up a Zuccarello type career and capped out in the 50-60 points a season mid-tier first liner range.

I got the impression from Blackhawks fans / writers that he wasn't really a standout at their development camp back a few months ago. That's not a great sign. Rookie games are even more meaningless than dev camps. I'm very curious to see what he does in training camp or preseason games. Wouldn't be shocked if he tears up the AHL this season but doesn't get any NHL time.

Wouldn't be shocked if he tears up the AHL this season but doesn't get any NHL time. Ditto, I personally hold him in pretty high regard but then again he's charting the same path that Corey Locke did a decade ago and he was never able to rise above the level of AHL superstar. I like the way DeBrincat plays and think he's at worst going to be a somewhat regular NHLer, but yes he's not at an NHL level yet. He needs at least 20-30 games in the AHL to prove himself and adapt to the pros first and it could very well be a rough transition. I see a guy that's incredibly talented that was drafted by a team that has haemorrhaged scoring wingers lately. He'll likely get his turn in the NHL at some point this year. I doubt he'll set the world on fire anytime soon, but every time I've watched him play I've never come across thinking there was some fatal flaw to his game. He's going to have a much tougher time doing his bullish approach against the Shea Webers of the world, but I don't expect he'll be forced to completely rebuild his game when the competition ramps up.

The question isn't really his skill set or even his size. There are enough little bulldogs now that I don't think his size will be the biggest thing holding him back. It'll be whether or not he can play a structured game where he isn't clearly better than the opposition. The more unstructured nature of his game will suit itself well to the AHL though. It'll come down to how coachable he is.
