Politics And Current Events

This week while down in Washington I had a chance to interact with Frank Sesno (CNN, founder of Planet Forward, etc.) and he actually had a pretty good, balanced take on things and some pretty interesting perspective given how long he's followed politics. It basically boiled down to "yeah, it's a li...

Definitely not negative value. Players get sold on the potential card based on draft stock regardless of the goods...Pouliot is a more useful player than Nail Yakupov or Hunter Shinkaruk, arguably a similar level as Curtis Lazar...all of these players netted an asset even though they have shown near...

Finns, correct me if I'm wrong, are taught to hold their glove fingers up and slightly ahead of the body's plane, so to speak. They also hold it higher. Many Canadian goaltenders, particularly Quebec/Allaire influenced goalies, have the glove out to the side, fingers pointed outward because they are...
