I know the Q isn't your thing but how was Grigorenko been? I see he's tied for 9th in Q scoring (tied with MacKinnon)

From everything I've read and heard, Grigorenko is living up to his expectations. If I come across some other reports I will be sure to post it.

Haven't been reading until recently, but I love the writeup man!

My interest in prospects has slowly percolated over the year and now I just can't get enough about it. When I found your write-ups on the OHL, I added yet another thing to read. Tis great.

Now I only wish I could find your dopplegangers for the Bud, Q, USHL and NCAA :P

Rogers' Sportsnet and the OHL announce "Friday Night Hockey" where you can catch an OHL game every Friday night. It's about time that Sportsnet has picked up more games. There's a larger market out there for junior hockey.
