https://theahl.com/2018-calder-cup-schedules Welcome back to my Thursday ramblings where now nothing much is going on except the AHL finals. I will go over the results of Tuesday’s game as the series is so far 2-1 for The Toronto Marlies. Also I will answer some questions! *************** Tuesday recap: Marlies won [...]
' Welcome to my first ever Prospect Ramblings! I was recently promoted to Junior Associate Editor role here at DobberProspects which means this will be first of many regular ramblings from me. The idea for these ramblings came from a Twitter follower (follow me @JokkeNevalainen). I recently released my personal ranking of Swedish players in my [...]
~~~ I won't lie, in my opinion the draft combine leads to more drama than necessary when it comes to evaluating prospects. From worrying about pull-up counts to puking just for the "has heart" checkmark (thank you 31 Thoughts podcast for that gem) - these teenagers have a lot to deal with this weekend. But [...]
In continuing my series of comparing draft-eligible players, today we finish up The Battle of the Centres. As mentioned last time, the 2018 crop is littered with high-end defensemen and impactful wingers. It is without question, lite on centres. I’ve targeted four pivots who could conceivably go in any order this June. Two from [...]
In continuing my series of comparing draft-eligible players, this week we have a monster. The 2018 crop is littered with high-end defensemen and impactful wingers. However, it is lite on centres. I’ve targeted four pivots who could conceivably go in any order this June. Two from the Finnish Liiga and two from the CHL. [...]

*** Lots of CHL action this weekend so no sense dillydallying. The league announced its award winners for the 2017-18 season, as follows: Sportsnet Player of the Year: Alex Barre-Boulet (TBL) Not that 116 points in 65 games is bad or anything, but this was definitely a shocker for me, as I thought goaltender [...]
http://chl.ca/article/2018-mastercard-memorial-cup-logo-unveiled Welcome to the Thursday ramblings, I will go over the latest KHL awards Kontroversy (Yes I have always been a Mortal Kombat fan, minus the new and improved micro-transactions) and memorial cup updates. Yay, fun happy time! Let’s go! ************ On Wednesday the KHL handed out its awards to [...]
LAND OF THE LIVING SKIES Living in Regina, SK means that I happen to get a live look at many of the prospects who come through Regina or Moose Jaw throughout the regular season and I have to rely on watching games online from other leagues... Enter the Memorial Cup. MY HOME. MY PROVINCE. MY [...]
*** NHL Playoffs and World Championship aren't the only excitement going on right now - The 2018 Memorial Cup began on Friday which means there is lots of play to discuss! Each of the 4 teams will play each other once before one gets eliminated, one gets a bye to the final, and the middle [...]
