What a great line:
Falling: Juho Mielonen: This truly pains us. He's a real RLR favorite and an absolutely fabulous skater and passer, but we've seen better decision making and common sense from the Bush White House.
And 2 US nats in the top 5 (possible) draft? What is wrong with the world?

Lately I've been watching celebrity poker instead of NHL hockey. I think Crosby still tops a Royal Flush of players ranked #2 through #6.

Nice little write-up on Ryan, from the International Scouting Service: OHL's Ryan jumps into fourth spotBy NEIL STEVENS / The Canadian Press Right-winger Bobby Ryan of the Owen Sound Attack has jumped to fourth spot in 2005 NHL draft rankings of skaters compiled by International Scouting Services. Rimouski Oceanic centre Sidney Crosby remained No. 1, U.S. national team defenceman Jack Johnson stayed No. 2 and Vancouver Giants centre Gilbert Brule again was No. 3 in the January rankings released by the independent ISS group. Jumping to No. 4, from No. 7 in December and No. 17 last October, Ryan continues to impress the scouts. "Ryan has turned into an absolute force within the OHL and has been a major part of the Owen Sound Attack's major run," says ISS. "With all the hype surrounding the London Knights, Ryan and the Attack went on a string of 20 games with only one loss to serve notice that London won't be sailing to the league championship.

Ryan's one kid I hope we stay away from. Last year he really struggled, looked slow and lazy, this year he's really picked it up, but it is his draft year. Big kid with good hands, so I wouldn't be pissed if we somehow got him but I'd rather see us look elsewhere. Erik Johnson, perhaps Marc Staal, would be a nice pickup for our future defense.
