Liberty wrestlers win Barry Knott Classic
December 31, 2013
The Liberty High School wrestling team won the Barry Knott Classic Dec. 21, sending eight wrestlers to the final. Four emerged as champions.
Nate Sjoholm (145), Jimmy Andrus (152), Conner Small (160) and Romney Noel (170) each placed first in their weight classes.

Liberty wrestlers overwhelm Juanita, 58-4
The Maywood Middle School gymnasium may not technically be the Liberty High School wrestling team's home site, but the Patriots sure looked comfortable there as they cruised to a dominant 58-4 win against Juanita on Dec. 12.
The Patriots won all but one of their matches, making a statement about the strength of this year's team, led by first-year coach Wright Noel.
Issaquah's depth too much for Eastlake
December 10, 2013
It's not unusual for a high-school wrestling team to start the season without its first-choice lineup, and that's the situation the Issaquah Eagles and Eastlake Wolves were dealing with last week.
In the season's first KingCo Conference wrestling dual, the Eagles collected pins in six of the first nine matches, and then held on for a 48-36 victory at Issaquah High School on Dec. 5.
The night's most important result might have been Issaquah senior Seth Hartman's victory over Chris Lockwood at 145 pounds. Lockwood, a senior, jumped out to a 5-0 lead and nearly had his opponent pinned. But when Lockwood overextended himself, Hartman got a reversal and completed the pin in 1 minute, 53 seconds.
"That was a 12-point swing, or it would've been tied," Eagles coach Kirk Hyatt said. "We've got a young team, and we had a couple pivotal matches that flipped, or it would've been a lot tighter than it was."

Former world champion Sammie Henson leads Skyline High School wrestling camp
For each of the past nine summers, a former American wrestling standout has been on the Sammamish Plateau to pass along his love and knowledge of the sport.
Sammie Henson connected with the Skyline High School wrestling program nearly a decade ago, and he helped draw about 75 youth wrestlers to the school for an intense, three-day skills camp last week.
Family is wrestling royalty

Skyline's Steciw brothers have each won championships
When asked how many boxes of Wheaties it took to raise three high school wrestling champions, Tammy Fullum just laughed and said, "A lot."
Buddies traverse the world of high school wrestling
March 12, 2013
When Issaquah High School's wrestling coach Kirk Hyatt gives his recruitment speech every year, he always tells his athletes the same thing: If you are going to recruit someone, recruit your best friend.
"There are going to be times when you need them, and then there are going to be times when you need them," Hyatt said.
Seniors Matt Solusod and Jerdon Helgeson know what he is talking about. The two have been wrestling since middle school, and together they have gone from dreading practice to serving as co-captains for Issaquah's varsity team.
Patriots' wrestlers leave state battered, but better
February 19, 2013
Her face was caked in sweat, her shoulders had mat burns and her nostrils were leaking red. And yet, Joanna Moreira could not stop smiling.
The Liberty High School wrestler had just defeated Angelica Vaschenko, from Franklin Pierce High School, in the second round of consolation at the state tourney in Tacoma. The win, a 12-8 tussle of wills, assured that the 137-pound Patriot from São Paulo, Brazil, would finish better at state than in 2012.
"This is a big accomplishment," she said. "I wanted to be better than I was last year."
In 2012, a freshman Moreira had lost in the second round of consolation. This year, she finished eighth. A week earlier, she had finished third at regionals in Sedro-Woolley, improving her 2012 performance by one spot.
Wrestlers end strong at state
February 19, 2013
The local 4A wrestling programs were well-represented at the 25th annual Mat Classic Feb. 15-16 where 14 area wrestlers battled the state's top athletes for a chance to medal in high school's biggest tournament.
After taking second at the Region 3 Tournament the weekend before, Skyline High School wrestlers filled eight of the 14 weight classes at the state championship. By the time the two-day tournament was about over, the excitement of having eight wrestlers make it to the final 16 had taken its toll on Gus Kiss' vocal cords. By 2 p.m. Saturday, the Skyline coach's voice was all but gone.
"We're really proud of the fact that we brought eight kids and one alternate," he said in an almost whisper. "It's a culmination of hard work and dedication, and it's nice to see the end result."
Skyline Spartans crowned wrestling champs
February 5, 2013
Not only are the Skyline High School Spartans the KingCo 4A champions but seven of their wrestlers are individual district champions as well.
At the KingCo 4A Championships Feb. 2, the Spartans won with 229 team points. Issaquah came in second with 209 points.
"Having eight in the finals and seven champs was something certainly very, very special," Skyline coach Gus Kiss said.
Eagles wrestlers wrap up rally against Roughriders
January 22, 2013
The Issaquah High School wrestling squad raised its overall mark to 6-1, when it hosted Roosevelt at the Eagle's Nest Jan. 17 and knocked the Roughriders out of their saddles with a 39-31 comeback victory.

Beautiful shoe!
"I bought this shoe in silver to wear to a wedding. I was a little worried the silver would look cheap or tacky in person (as can be the case with glittery, silver heels), but they're gorgeous! I was seven months pregnant when I wore the shoe and made it almost the entire night without any comfort issues, although I did have the toe box stretched a bit because I have high arches. Perfect addition to a little black dress!"

Assault Charges & AVO Thrown Out of Court Despite Testimony of 'Independent' Witness
Our client is a 48 year old architect from Surry Hills, Sydney.
His home adjoins that of his neighbour, the complainant. The two have been engaged in an ongoing dispute regarding various issues, including noise.
Just after 3pm on a Tuesday, our client was moving his two wheelie bins when the the neighbour exited her front door and complained about the noise it made.
The disagreement quickly escalated into an argument, and our client allegedly threatened the complainant and pushed one of the bins hard into her thigh, causing pain.
Police were called and our client was charged with assault after statements were taken from the complainant and an independent observer, who supported the complainant's version of events.
Police also made an application for an Apprehended Violence Order ('AVO').
The case went all the way to a defended hearing in Downing Centre Local Court.
The independent witness gave testimony in court supporting the complainant's version of events.
However, through careful preparation and skilful cross-examination our Senior Lawyer Jimmy Singh was able to systematically discredit both the complainant and the independent witness on the stand.
The Presiding Magistrate ultimately found our client 'not guilty' of all charges and also dismissed the AVO that was brought against him.
It is yet another example that cases can certainly be won even if there is an 'independent witness' that backs-up the complainant's story.
Police Withdraw Charges of Low Range Drink Driving and Wilfully Alter Alcohol Concentration
Our client is a 41 year old accountant in a multi-national company.
After finishing work on a Thursday night, he drove to a nearby pub where he consumed a meal and 1 schooner of beer.
He then drove towards his home, but just before arriving had a minor collision with another car.
While police were being called, our client walked a short distance to his home to get a jacket.
While there, he consumed half a bottle of red wine. He then returned to the scene where police breath tested him, finding him to be in the low range p.c.a. (0.066).
Police then charged him with (1) low range drink driving and (2) wilfully altering concentration of blood alcohol.
The fact that police pressed the second charge suggested that they accepted our client's explanation about drinking after the collision.
Our lawyers quickly capitalised on this by requesting withdrawal of both charges on the basis that, as our client's explanation was accepted, the first charge certainly could not be proved beyond reasonable doubt.
Police then withdrew both charges.
Client Avoids Licence Disqualification and Conviction after Drug Driving
Our client was pulled over by police after he was seen veering from lane to lane without indicating.
After lowering his window, police smelt an 'overpowering scent of cannabis coming from the vehicle'.
They asked whether he had smoked anything recently, to which he replied 'Yes I smoked it 20 minutes ago, on the way to seeing you guys'.
Police asked whether there were any drugs in the vehicle, and our client handed over his remaining joint of cannabis.
As police did not have drug testing facilities, our client was transported to Hawkesbury Hospital where he provided blood and urine samples.
The analysis of those samples later revealed very high concentrations of 'THC'.
He was then charged with 'driving under the influence of alcohol / other drug', also known as 'DUI'.
Despite the fact that our client has numerous entries on his traffic record, the Magistrate in Windsor Local Court was persuaded to grant him a 'section 10' – which means that he avoids a criminal record and licence disqualification.
This was achieved through producing materials to show that our client suffers from a range of health issues, including severe hernia pain, which would have made it extremely difficult for him to catch public transport.
Living alone and on a limited income, he would likely have been unable to attend various medical appointments.
It was also pointed-out that his use of cannabis was to alleviate pain, rather than any recreational purpose or conscious desire to flout the law.
The Magistrate quite properly suggested that he find a legal form of pain relief.
Good Behaviour Bond for 12 Fraud Charges for Client Previously Convicted of Criminal Offences
Our client is a 27 year old mother from Killara who has previously been convicted of a range of criminal offences.
She was employed from November 2012 until January 2014 as an accountant a book keeper with an online company that compares the prices of online goods.
Between August and December 2013, she entered 12 invoices totalling over $64,000 into the company's accounting system which purported to pay a legitimate company for their outstanding invoices.
However, she changed the bank account details so that the payments were made into a fake bank account that she was later shown to access.
She resigned after the anomalies were brought to her attention.
Upon her resignation, her employer located a range of items in her drawers and on her computer showing that she was clearly guilty of the offences; including manufactured documents and files stating the name of the legitimate company at the top and the fake account underneath.
The fraudulent invoices were also shown to have been entered through her log details in and submitted through her account.
The evidence against her was therefore overwhelming.
Our client saw another criminal law firm who, improperly in our view, set the matter down for a 3-day defended hearing and quoted her an exorbitant figure to represent her during that hearing.
We were instructed that she was not advised of any defence.
We were also instructed that no attempt had been made by her previous lawyers for her case to be withdrawn and that there had been no negotiations for the reduction of the charges, or the amendment of the 'police facts' – which was confirmed by the police officer in charge.
Our client came to see her just 3 weeks before the 3-day defended hearing.
When our Principal Mr U. Nedim and Senior Lawyer Jack Leitner carefully reviewed all of the evidence, it became abundantly clear that the prosecution case was overwhelming and that a defence was not available.
They immediately advised the client that she was wasting her money on such an expensive hearing and would be losing the benefit of a guilty plea.
Our client stated word to the effect of: 'I knew that was the case', 'he always said take it to hearing but never told me why', and 'I don't think he even read the documents'.
Our defence team immediately went into 'damage control mode'.
We obtained full instructions which revealed psychological issues including depression, and which went some way towards explaining the conduct – without excusing it.
We quickly engaged a psychologist to prepare a detailed report.
We managed to convince police to merge the 12 charges into a single charge and, vitally, to delete nearly two-thirds of the 'facts' (ie the document handed-up to the magistrate) so that the offence appeared much less-serious.
We then advised the court that the case would be a 'guilty plea' and to 'vacate' (cancel) the three-day hearing.
This gave our client the benefit of a 'discount on sentencing'; in other words, entitled her to a more lenient penalty.
On the day of sentencing, the Magistrate in Downing Centre Local Court praised our firm's efforts towards mitigating the case.
He gave our client a substantial sentencing discount for saving the court from having to hear a 3 day case whereby many witnesses would have to attend.
He took into consideration the positive psychological report and our detailed submissions, and released our client upon a 2 year 'section 9 good behaviour bond' – which is an outstanding result given the nature of the offence and her previous record.
Our client was extremely happy and relieved, and also thankful that our costs were far lower than what her previous lawyer wanted.
Bail for 63kg Commercial Drug Importation
Our client is a 26 year old Columbian national who, before his arrest, was in Australia on a student visa.
He is charged with importing 63 kilograms of methamphetamine from Mexico and Columbia into Australia, in contravention of section 307.1 of the Criminal Code Act.
The offence carries a maximum penalty of life imprisonment.
The shipment was detected through telephone intercepts and physical surveillance, and the drugs were intercepted by the AFP in Sydney and replaced with an innocuous substance that was found in the boot of a car in Burwood.
It is alleged that our client was involved in the importation and that the case against him is strong.
The Bail Act 2013 requires the court to consider a range of factors when deciding to release a person from custody.
Those factors include: the seriousness of the charge, the strength of the prosecution case, the person's links to the community, the risk of not turning up to court, the risk of reoffending, the time they would spend in prison if not granted bail and the need to be free to prepare for their case.
Our client was in a difficult position due to the seriousness and alleged strength of the case, his minimal links to the community and the consequent risk of failing to attend court.
However, our defence team prepared detailed written submissions to the court focusing upon (1) prosecution delays in serving evidence, (2) the fact that he would be spending a significant amount of time behind bars awaiting trial, and (3) our need to have him free to assist in the preparation of his defence.
The prosecution strongly opposed bail, and prepared it's own written submissions.
However, the Magistrate in Central Local Court ultimately acceded to our request and granted conditional bail to our client.
The next step will be for our experienced team to use our vast specialised experience in commercial drug cases to secure him the optimal outcome.

Lifeline: Turkey supplies at least $10M in fuel to east Libya
July 26, 2011 12:51 by Reuters
Turkish Petroleum International Company (TPIC), a subsidiary of Turkey's state-owned oil and gas exploration company Turkiye Petrolleri (TPAO), has shipped two fuel cargoes worth at least $10 million, an industry source familiar with the deal said.
Turkey is set to deliver a further 18,000 tonnes of fuel to the Libyan opposition's National Transitional Council, in addition to 10,000 tonnes it has already sent last week, Energy Minister Taner Yildiz said on Tueday.
The fuel support enables the rebel government to ease energy shortages in the east of the country, industry sources told Reuters on Monday.
Libya's civil war has damaged oil infrastructure and severely hampered the rebel government's ability to produce and sell oil, increasing its reliance on foreign aid to pay for imports of refined products.
Regular fuel supplies such as gasoline for cars and diesel used for power plants are vital to the rebels to win the war and retain popular support in a country long-accustomed to subsidised energy. A second industry source said the Turkish government was seeking to line up more suppliers and that he expected one or two more cargoes to be sent.
The supply deal is a sign of closer ties between Benghazi and Ankara, which recognised the rebel Transitional National Council earlier this month and pledged $200 million in aid.
It was not clear whether funding for these fuel deliveries was included in this sum, but the trade sources said that the fuel was being delivered for humanitarian reasons, with no payment expected.
Oil firm Vitol has until now been the rebels' main trading partner and has regularly shipped cargoes of oil products, but the oil minister said last month they have had to request payment extensions. Qatar has also supplied fuel to the rebel government.
"It's not that the Vitol deal is insufficient — this is free," said a Libyan oil industry source, working with the rebels. Other oil traders active in the Mediterranean told Reuters they were interested in supplying Libya but that banks were still blocking payments to the TNC due to sanctions.
An oil ministry source said last week that the rebels were looking for an alternative supplier and that at least one other oil firm said it was in talks with them in an early sign that the Libyan oil trade may be picking up.
Exact import requirements are unclear, but an industry source with knowledge of the Libyan market said they were around 50,000 tonnes a week.
West Libya is also suffering from fuel shortages as international sanctions and NATO cargo interceptions have deterred traders from delivering via tankers. Instead, smugglers are importing fuels overland from Algeria and Tunisia. (Reporting by Pinar Aydinli, Emma Farge and Humeyra Pamuk, Reuters)

I see where turkey wants… They are buying oil and given it for free for the rebels, and hoping they win the war. Do you know why? Libya has more then over 1500% oil reserves of Turkey.
I am very happy to see all the "ism" systems failing… The world needs balance! not "isms"!

Cruise Deals, Information and Cruise Updates
Author: Cruise.com Wizard
24 Nov 2011
A weekend cruise is relaxing and fun and it doesn't use up your well earned vacation days! Weekend cruises are also a great opportunity to try out the experience of cruising for those who have never cruised before.
A cruise weekend offers something for everyone. You can have a romantic weekend away, family time with the kids, a girls (or guys) weekend out or a birthday or anniversary celebration or cruising just to have fun. Whatever your reason cruising is a great way to get away, leave the stress behind and have some fun.
What's it like to take a weekend cruise? Here is a sample itinerary:
You can board the ship around noon and start your weekend getaway. Change into your bathing suit and hit the pool deck. Enjoy a fabulous lunch. Make your spa appointments. Most ships leave port between 5PM and 6PM. Wave good-bye and feel your stress fade away!
Once at sea dine in one of the ships many restaurants. After dinner enjoy a show, listen to music and relax in one of the many lounges, dance the night away in the disco or try your luck at the casino.
When you wake up you arrive in port. The day is yours to do as you please. Go on one of the numerous excursions, spend the day at the beach or take in some shopping. In most cases you have the full day in port. Most cruises arrive between 8AM and 9AM and depart between 5PM and 6PM.
Once you get on the ship it's time for another exciting night. Try a different restaurant for dinner. Make your way to the different clubs, see another show or try another hand in the casino.
Wake up early (if you choose) and hit the gym. Or sleep in and relax. Perhaps order breakfast in your cabin or have breakfast in one of the restaurants. On some itineraries this day will be spent relaxing at sea or on other's you will visit the cruise line's private island. The private islands greet you with beautiful white sand beaches. There are water sports galore, activities for the kids, and beach barbeques for when you get hungry. The day is yours to send as you wish.
On your final evening have a relaxing dinner and then enjoy all of the evening entertainment that the ship has too offer.
Sadly, on Monday morning it's time to disembark. You will leave feeling refreshed, with many wonderful memories and looking forward to taking your next cruise.
A number of ports offer weekend cruises at affordable rates. Whatever port you choose to cruise from you'll find weekend cruising to be fun and a great way to leave it all behind – oh, and a little addictive too!
You can book your cruise online or call 866-257-1489!

Schumer, McCain, Obama Not Giving Up on Gun Grab
Nice as it is that the Left's gun grab stalled in the Senate, we can hardly afford to let our guard down. Freedom's enemies are like rust, endlessly eating away until everything crumbles.
The Senate will try again to pass recently defeated gun control legislation, and will be aided by increasing activism from previously neutral voters, Sen. Chuck Schumer predicted [Thursday] at a press conference.
"I think we will bring the bill back before the end of the year… lots of Senators who thought it was safe to vote against it [April 17] because of the intensity [of gun-rights supporters] are not so sure any more," Schumer told reporters at an April breakfast hosted by the Christian Science Monitor.
Remember 2006, when John "Lettuce" McCain et al. tried to ram amnesty down our throats but had to back off because the people rose up in rage? He was left for dead politically. Two years later, by some miracle of evil, he was the GOP presidential candidate. Now he is pushing amnesty again as a member of the Gang of Eight Quislings. The same strategy of backing off in the face of public fury but then continuing to advance their pernicious designs after the anger has subsided applies to gun rights.
"I do agree with Chuck that I think the issue will come back," said Sen. John McCain, who supported an amendment to expand background checks during an April 17 vote.
This indicates how far they are from giving up:
Obama's Organizing for America is using some of the staff, data and techniques form Obama's high-tech 2012 campaign to build public support for gun control.
The government can do literally whatever it wants to us once we have been disarmed. For an idea of what that has meant in the recent past, refer to the nightmare history of Soviet Russia and Nazi Germany.
In the classic movie Invasion of the Body Snatchers, malevolent aliens take over your life when you fall asleep. We are in the same situation; the instant our eyes close, Schumer, McCain, Obama and the rest will swoop in to take what's left of our country.

OS is Win7 Pro SP1 64 bit
Trying to install DWG Trueview. The sfx file appeared to download properly and has been extracted into C:\Autodesk
setup.exe is in C:\Autodesk\SetupDWGTrueView2015_ENU_64bit, the folder contents look normal
If I double click on setup.exe I get the normal "Do you want to run this file?" dialog. If I click "Run" teh dioalog disappears but nothing runs. Checking Task Manager confirms that there is no install running
If I right-click on setup.exe and choose "run as administrator" I get nothing, not even the normal "Do you want to run this file?" dialog. Again nothing runs and this is confirmed in Task Manager.
I can see in SETUP.INI "INSTALL_PATH=%ProgramFiles%\Autodesk" and confirm that this folder is NOT being created, it does not exist.
Any ideas?
Running AVG Internet Security Business Edition. I've tried temporarily disabling it and it makes no difference.
I just ran into this issue myself - when I went into C:\Autodesk\SetupDWGTrueView2015_ENU_64bit, I dug further into the x64\dwgviewr folder inside and tried to run the dwgviewr.exe file. I immediately got an error saying that I needed to install additional DirectX components to continue.
I downloaded the dxwebsetup file from Microsoft, ran it, and let it install additional components. When it was done, DWG TrueView 2015 let me continue to install without the "incompatible OS" error message. Hope this helps
it sounds like you have extra security enabled on that machine either through permissions or something else
it works fine here on Windows 7 64 bit
it does not ask me if i want to run the file

PBS NewsHour subscribes to the AP, and so the results we will broadcast Tuesday night will reflect the AP's calls. Continue reading
The Supreme Court is taking its second look at a dispute over the wording of U.S. passports for Americans born in Jerusalem, a case with potential foreign policy implications in the volatile Middle East.
The justices are hearing arguments Monday in a lawsuit filed by the parents of Menachem Zivotofsky, an American who was born in Jerusalem in 2002. Continue reading
Over the weekend, a rash of polls were released — all pointing to a Republican edge. There are still some key questions for Election Night. One big one — will it end on Election Night? Republicans need to net six seats to take control of the Senate. Continue reading
Much of the analysis after the 2012 presidential election focused on how the Obama campaign had made better use of technology than the Romney campaign to get its supporters to the polls. So how are both major parties doing this time around in the days leading up to Tuesday's midterm elections? Journalist Ashley Parker joins Hari Sreenivasan from Washington. Continue reading

High end resort
We booked a package trip through Go Today which included our air, hotels and transfers and the Mabu Foz was the hotel at the level we chose. I think we would have been better situated in town where the cheaper accomodations are, we ended up going into town both nights for dinner as the resort restaurants were pricey and not really what we wanted to eat.
This was a REALLY nice 5* resort, the problem being of course that if you are away all day at the Falls, what's the need in staying at a resort? I'd only recommend this place if you are staying for an extended visit so that you can actually enjoy some of the amenities here.
Unique Quality: The grounds are vast, there are several swimming pools, a fishing pond, soccer (football) field, tennis, exercise equipment for guests to use. There are also spa services for an extra fee. Since we were gone for the entire day, we didn't have a chance to use any of the amenities so it was a bit of a waste for us to stay there.
The rooms are very nice, comfortable bed, hot water, hair dryer, minibar. There are robes and slippers, just be aware that if you use the slippers you will be charged for them.
The front desk staff was extremely helpful in everything from how to get the bus to calling ahead for reservations for dinner and helping us decide the best way to get to the Falls. I'd give the hotel staff an A+
The hotel has a tourist office with "guides" on call that take you to the Falls and other attractions, but all it ended up being was a taxi service as the"guide" didn't accompany us inside the Falls so it seemed to be a bit expensive. But it was incredibly convenient, our driver was ready to go about 15 minutes after we requested him.
The Resort is right on the bus line that gets you either to the National Park or to town so it was very convenient to get around inexpensively. It was about $8US one way via taxi into town if you want to eat outside the resort.
Great Customer Service in a Top Resort
We were there to see the falls, of course, but were very impressed with the Mabu. It had comfortable rooms with mini bar, blow dryer and large shower. The lobby was clean and all the hotel staff were very friendly and willing to help. Our price included a full breakfast buffet and my ONLY complaint was that the coffee was not as good as what we had in Rio just a few days before. The pool area was also great -- very sunny with waterfalls from upper to lower pools. Our FAVORITE part of the trip to Mabu was the massages in their spa -- not be be missed! And compared to what we pay here in Dallas, it was almost half the price.
Thank you Mabu for a pleasant stay -- wish I could have stayed longer

Another Object Lesson in Communism!
One of those events I can't forget happened to me in third grade. There was a "grab-bag" day for whatever reason, and my mother and I wrapped a box with a little plastic glow-in-the-dark monster I picked out (because I loved it myself) and several of my favorite brand choclate bars.
Of course, I drew a crappy, used, 1-piece plastic car fit for a 3-yr old.
The dissapointment and loss didn't torment me near as much as listening to, perhaps 70% of the kids around laughing about the obviouse injustice. Only a couple commented on how unfair it was, teacher not-included.
So much for inculcating communism! Let those stupid fools keep it up. The more stupid and evil things they do, the more they will destroy themselves.

Add Hrivik because of his great AHL playoffs performance. Considering what's left on the table, he's really a slam dunk at this point.
Add Ceresnak. |
Hrivik because he's already shown that he's able to perform in the AHL. Add Stajcer
McColgan. Add Stajcer.
Add Stajcer |
Hrivik, add Ceresnak. I have no idea why Bourque was added. He appears to have no shot to make it in the NHL.
Hrivik, add Stajcer
Hrivik. Stajcer.
Hrivik add Ceresnak.
McColgan, again... Add Ceresnak
Hrivik. Add Stajcer.
California kid. Add Ceresnak.
The Rangers must add a good goalie prospect or two in the next year or two. Maybe this is where all these third round picks next year would come into play. |
McColgan, add Ceresnak.
Hrivik. I only saw one game of his, but I'm relying on what the organization has said about him, as well as firsthand accounts from people like Jarkko.
I'm just not impressed with McColgan. I understand he hasn't had great talent to play with, but where is the progression? Add Scott Stajcer. |
Went with McColgan, add Ceresnak.
I'm not sure I get all the love/hype for Hrivik. Yeah he had a great stretch in the playoffs, but he's never really put up impressive numbers for long stretches of time. I mean he was undrafted for a reason. And I'm just basing this off stats, so I'm probably completely wrong. |
Calle Andersson. From all accounts, he seems to have the tools to be a powerplay specialist at the NHL level, but needs work on his defensive game. I think he has the most upside from the remaining players on the list.
Add Ceresnak. He has legit NHL size & had the 2nd best +/- rating at -1 on a mediocre junior team (after Andre Yogan). |
A player that wasn't drafted can't turn out to be a good player? |
Eh, McColgan was a fifth round pick himself. There's not necessarily a tremendous difference between that and going undrafted.
Again, never said he can't become a good player. Just don't think its likely based off the fact he's never put up numbers consistently except for 9 games in the playoffs. Hopefully I'm wrong. |
Hrivak. We're into the guys with longer odds at this point. Hrivak showed more at the junior level than McColgan.
Hrivik. I'm a believer.
then Noreau then McColgan Add Ceresnak |
