#nhldraft2022 Rankings out! Based on as much scouting as I was able to do along with some help and defaulting from guys who watched more than me! No doubt in my mind Tampa Bay snags Jagger. Who steals Nazar? You’re turn @DaPriceIsBright

Philadelphia isn’t quite a Canadian market, but it’s a bigger market than Kevin Kurz has previously covered. Because of this, he’s now finally starting to get the recognition he deserves. Remember, I called this 2 years ago.
Why is Matvei Michkov's conditioning level still an issue? His inflated body fat percentage when he arrived has made the process lengthier and more complicated -- particularly considering the kind of player he is. 🔗 https://t.co/hJnKFaNDGx

Arseny Gritsyuk is a very sneaky Calder contender this year imo. One of the more under the radar additions this year coming over from the K - could be a big factor for NJ

Lot of people haven’t heard of Jackson and thus are finding this crazy. No doubt the NHL is changing seeing contracts like this to lesser known guys, but make no mistake.. Jackson LaCombe is a young stud on the blue line.
Another big deal: the Ducks are making Jackson LaCombe the highest-paid player in franchise history. An 8x$9M AAV extension for the talented young defenceman. Ryan Getzlaf, Paul Kariya and Corey Perry had higher AAVs, but this is the most in total dollars.

Baseball players are so soft it’s insane. Duran is fine. Nothing long term. That was a nothing play.

Disclaimer: I’m still a Luzardo believer. Always have been. Having said that, let this be a sample size lesson to all the smooth brains out there. Got people crowning Mick Abel for 12 innings of pitching and demanding guys be traded bc of it. Let it play out a little more.

@BeeTEE15 @ThomasD30630662 Tocchet verbatim said it. If Tocchet comes here and tries to “reprogram” Michkov into a north south style it will literally ruin him, his best skill is his brain. I don’t think it’s a coincidence Pettersson consistently declined the more time he spent being coached by Tocchet
Tocchet said Pettersson likes to regroup and slow the game down but they want him to play a more north style and are trying to reprogram his brain. Mentions he's doing better recently. (Halford & Brough)

For those who don’t know ball, Trea Turner isn’t even that bad at defense. His defensive metrics have been fine every year here, including this year.

Frank Nazar is really good. Speed, playmaking, makes plays off the wall, takes advantage of mistakes instantly.... He fits the Hawks identity, should earn even more minutes, and hopefully have a big 2025-26 season.

Can’t imagine this community’s takes if Wheeler’s last two lines were Nola. (By the way, this is not commentary on Wheeler, his last two starts have been perfectly fine.)

Can we stop talking about the Rojas play? This is a 162 game season. He’s a great fielder. He can’t make one mistake? Relax, people.

Breaking Gretzky’s record is amazing by itself but the way Ovechkin did it is otherworldly! 42 goals in 61 games this season at 39 years old. And oh, btw, he broke his leg in the middle of it! Insane!!! One of greatest accomplishments in all of sports history.
For the first time in more than 31 years, there is a new name alone atop the NHL all-time goals list: Alex Ovechkin. #NHLStats: https://t.co/jyAMIY7Zx9
