I wasn't looking to open up a can worms, just sharing my opinion on something and looking for some more info. I appreciate your posts which shed some light on the topic. Obviously, there are a lot of impassioned posts on HF and I think people get too worked up about some statements. I did used to subscribe to the RLR and, when I did, I found it to be entertaining and informative and I'm sure it hasn't changed much since then. However, I don't necessarily think of them as "competition". Their products are different than the one we provide and I think in many ways they serve a different audience - and when they don't, I think there's plenty of room for everyone. It's like reading The Hockey News and reading your local paper's hockey coverage - they don't have to be mutually exclusive. And I'll say one more thing, which I have said many times, if someone wants to get the best overall sense of players eligible for a draft, they should probably subscribe to all of the services because then you'd get different viewpoints. Of course, that might be too expensive but I've always felt that the more info you have, the better off you'll be.
