All: The new Billszone site with the updated software is scheduled to be turned on Tuesday, May 21, 2024. The company that built it, Dynascale, estimates a FOUR HOUR shut down, from 8pm Pacific, (5pm Eastern) while they get it up and running. Nobody will be able to post in any forum until they are done. Afterwards, you may need to do a web search for the site, as old links will not work, because the site is getting a new IP address. Please be patient. If there are bugs, we will tackle them one at a time. Remember the goal is to be up and running with no glitches by camp. Doing this now assures us of that, because it gives us all summer to get our ducks in a row. Thank you!
There is work to be done and things to be learned. We are going to try to get the old look back - or something close to it. We also know there are bugs. A thread will be started to report bugs and then we can pass those onto the host.
Thank you for all the patience and support with this - hopefully this will greatly reduce the crashes and other site issues we have had lately.
Please use this thread to report any issues you come across

oh haha, I thought you were. My bad. That was a sweet goal on the wrap around though. Not too many guys would go from right in front all the way around to get a better scoring chance.

I'm a big eichel can though. He's gonna be special. As it stands though, Sabres won't get him unless things change dramatically
Can somebody help me? I'm not quite getting this whole..."oh we draft him (Eichel or McDavid)and next year we'll have a much better team" theory. I know I've heard the next Gretzky....next Crosby....but I guess I'm just trying to be a realist and say there's no guarantee. Are either one of these guys smashing...and I do mean smashing records in their leagues that make everyone believe they are the next "One"?
They could both be very good players, for years.....but they could also take time to develop into pro-level, or they could just be very good.....and not.......the "One".

McDavids 2.56 PPG is historic... Mcdavids 2.56 PPG is the highest in the last 20 years in the OHL.. The 2 closest to McDavid were Patrick Kane 2.5PPG in 2006-2007 and Robby Schrempf 2.54 in 2005-2006.. The OHL goes through ebbs and flows over time where scoring is higher than in other eras and it looks like now the scoring is higher compared to 4 or 5 years ago.. Still for Mcdavid to be O.56 PPG higher than Mitchell Marner who is at 2PPG is a huge and historic differential
Jack Eichels PPG 1.72 Is the 3rd highest in the last 10 years in he NCAA.. And the Eichel is a freshman the 2 players who had higher PPGs one was a senior the other a junior
So yes McDavid is a "once a decade prospect" and if Mcdavid didn't exist Eichel along with Nathan MacKinnon and John Tavares would be 3 of the best prospects in the last 7 years
Spiked knows this and is terrified by the sabres getting a uber talented player hence his hourly rants on here and everywhere else he is complaining it absolutely sickens him the Sabres are trying to set themselves up to get a once a decade player

I'm just asking. *shrug*
Well the only players who have been on the OHL exceptional status list allowing them to play in the OHL at 15 were Tavares, Ekblad and McDavid. Pretty good company.
