My personal opinion... I'd put Raffi at a lower level of dirty. He just ran guys. I would maybe compare him to Kadri-level dirty.

Cooke was cheap, dirty turtle-rat who I'd put in the same class as guys like Claude Lemieux and Bryan Marchment.

I wouldn't be surprised. His act is embarrassing the family. Even his little bro chucks 'em.

What a whole lotta good Panarin and Trouba are doing for the Rangers. Weren’t they supposed to be better managed than the Canucks?

I’m a big supporter of the Devils getting another 1st overall pick. It seems to be working out for them

That’s four years with a $3.2 AAV for Kassian, as first reported by

Great signing for the Oil. Kass takes less money than Ferkland, same term, minus the concussion issues.

BC guy right? I know he sort of grew up in both provinces but I also know you HATE BC hockey with a passion. We’re you cut from a house team back in the day? What gives?

So is Brendan Gallagher a BC guy despite the fact he identifies as one, he was born in Alberta and moved here when he was 11. What is he? I guess it depends how he’s playing... no agenda though :lol: :lol:

I don’t know how you can subscribe to Bowen having a good season plus 1 draft year? Numbers are just awful compared to last year. Awful!

I didn’t say he’s having a good year. I just wonder why you hate BC born players so much

I’m glad Byram is looking like a bust. We don’t need Colorado getting any better.

But why do you HATE BC born players?

Little soon to call him a bust yet.

It’s not looking good, Doyle.

33 games - 3 goals 18 assists 21 points

On pace for 6 goals 36 assists 42 points over 66 games

Last season

67 games - 26 goals 45 assists 71 points

Yikes! Brutal trend

So he’s a bust? Six months after he was drafted?

How do you explain his tailspin after last season? Would you describe it as similar to Juolevi’s season in London after being drafted? In fact I would suggest that Olli’s season after being drafted pales in comparison to the horridness of Byram’s season after being drafted
