As I try to block out as much noise around me as possible on my two-hour break by blasting Tyler Childers at a volume that will damage my ears long-term, I tried to think of a unique thing to talk about in my first prospect ramblings in a hot minute. While talking about how [...]
Well... the short answer is yes. The long answer? Abso-frickin-lutely. Even the biggest Zach Benson fans didn't expect him to be in the NHL in his D+1, but none of them were shocked his skills translated so quickly.

They stayed in mediocrity for a majority of the season, barely squeaked into the playoffs, and left nearly as fast as they got there. With that, the Winnipeg Jets could very possibly be the busiest team in the [...]
The off-season is certainly off to quite the start for the Canadiens, who are now concretely in year two of their rebuild. Not active in free agency, management has focused their energy on retaining their RFA's, and building through the draft. The 2023 Draft I was lucky enough to represent Dobber at the 2023 [...]
