First off guys, I was referring to what has gone on already when ranting about Harky. My point was if the draft was really run by the new owner did Harky make the choices or did the owner?? Either way I’m not impressed. So that leads me to believe he’ll be GM in title only, daddy will be making the big decisions. As for all you that constantly preach London is better. Does it feel good to have this happen way to often??? Tons of talent but again you get to head home far to early?!?! Imho the Hunters can’t finish even with an outstanding group of guys out there. The cockiness and arrogance keep them from greatness.
When Pinwheels showed up on the Battalion board , I found the agents name clear as day in the posters profile, it was removed a short time later. Who put it there ? no idea but make no mistake it was there !

I dont understand these millionaires interest in a fan board.Just a bunch of guys talking hockey, what would the new ownership really care.Who they should be caring about is their STH base.They are your bread an butter.Pizz them off and your in the crapper for the long term.
Good work, I thought it was owner type comments but maybe the agent thinking like a GM would bring similar type comments.
Well if someone is offering you a share of $13 million and you want to get out of the ownership business. I imagine you already know what the answer would be if the guy wanted say in the draft. Nobody is saying it's right but if you really want to sell and you're going to get a few million out of it. It's pretty easy to see what the decision would be and who wins out.
Preach London is better? Better than who? You should probably look closer. Fact is Guelph was a better team after the deadline. Including 2 very decisive victories in games played in London. The biggest surprise was that London went up 3-0 in the series not that Guelph won the series. Yes Guelph coming back 3-0 was a surprise as well. London won 15 straight games for a stretch this year and they pretty much had 1st in the division locked up after that. Meanwhile Guelph was finding their way and made some bold moves at the deadline. You could make the case Guelph had the 2 best players on the ice in Ratcliffe/Suzuki. Cockiness and arrogance doesn't have much to do with why they don't win every year.

Probably a field in the sign up process that can be left blank but they filled it in not thinking it would be public.

That's not uncommon with stuff like this. I'm assuming it wasn't the owner, but someone else already brought up?

It goes by position I don't think Foudy had the type of season that Byfield/Rossi did.

I realize it goes by position but I'd imagine you could make an argument for Foudy in there somewhere. (and no, it's not a huge deal)

Piiroinen is on Team Finland at the World Under 18s. He's back-up today in their opener against Canada.

Damn it’s gone totally quiet! No ones talking. Branch musta threw a fit. At least the wings are getting their man!!!
really, what is there to talk about.
No news about Windsor.
They sure are not playing actually hockey.
This has been like this for the last 8 years.
Wait a month or so and maybe something will happen.

The whole debacle over the pick doesn't make the team look good but it's time to move on and turn the focus to next year and if the team can improve.

LOL I tried to post some stuff about U18s, which was actual good news, but I guess people prefer drama instead.

I gave a hard fact above (and a rather good talking point). Nope, nothing. At least I tried.
