Moves Exciting - Pick Not

I've got no problems with Calvin de Haan.

I have HUGE problems with this team essentially trading 26, 37, 62, 92 and 108 to get a guy who may VERY well have been there at 26 anyways.

In addition, I can't imagine that ANYONE would have taken him between 13-16.

Very disappointed.

Well, I sure hope Kyle Woodlief - of all people - is right, because at some point he praised de Haan as being as good if not better than Ellis.

...a few words of thanks!

I have to send a thank you out to Tom Mascioli and his website http://www.islesinfo.com/. It is a resource of huge proportions.

Thanks to Forever1940.

Eric reminds me of my fifth grade math teacher in helping me make sure I am correct. He is a true Pro. Following the numbers makes the games so much more fun to watch. Who even knew what an Actuarian was anyways. He is a stats god!!! Visit him at http://forever1940.blogspot.com/

As I discuss our Alumni players as our younger players move up in the esoteric rankings, I hope to generate discussions with the older and newer generations of fans. I would like for the newer fans to learn from our past about what it truly means to be an Islander Fan.
