2011: 1 to 120

[hototogisu]

Have you ever thought about starting a blog, or something? I feel like these write-ups deserve more attention than just a thread on HF, where they'll probably be buried as soon as the draft is over (unfortunately).

Hmm, maybe after the draft I will want them buried. In any case, it sounds like more work and I have devoted a way too much time to this already. I thought it would get easier with the better known prospects but instead it has got that much harder. It seems that it easier to write for the underdogs or maybe that is just me. In any case, I will try and complete at least the 2nd round and the remainder of the 4th before the draft. I don't know if I can add too much to the first round as there are already lots of good write-ups about those guys.

You ever go to a Bruins game in Boston, PM I'd like to thank you personally this is so enjoyable

Christopher Ralph finally talked me into putting the write-ups on his blog site - http://hockeyspy.blogspot.com/ I have 81 to 110 up now and will put the remainder I have posted up there over the next few days. There are only minor modifications to most of the posts plus stats, videos and photos where applicable.
After the first few write-ups (where I still have edits to make but each edit seems to make things worse not better), the posts went OK. I learned to use Google Blogger (a work in progress) and Google Docs (very quirky but there still is a place for them) so at least I learned a few new tricks.

Much appreciated...Love the work you put into it.

Not to seem ungrateful, as I really enjoyed the read.. where is 111-120? Did I miss them somewhere?

Nope, saving a few spots in case someone makes it big at the Memorial Cup. e.g. Jordan Binnington

Glad to have E-Mac (aka ikelechien) on board - these write ups deserved to be captured, saved & highlighted - unique perspectives like this are golden!

I'm trying to keep up with E-Mac (aka ikelechien)!

Started a "home page of sorts" for E-Mac's Top 120 NHL 2011 Draft rankings.

E-Mac is on fire!!!

E-Mac is on fire!!!

So maybe now is a good time for him to change his HFB handle to "E-Mac" rather than his dog's name?

Nice work, guys.

Aw, Ike was a good old dog, I miss him. Maybe I should change my name to my current dog's name. However, unlike Ike, he doesn't speak French so I guess it would have to be SergeiTheDog.

Thanks, will change it, my mistake.
