I just noticed Kessel is a UFA, doesn't have a contract, no ties to any team. He might not play. He could retire. Are these types of players still eligible to be drafted?
That's a lot of ways to say the same thing. But yes, he is eligible to be signed and if you read what he's said over the summer he has no plan to retire.

Can someone double-check this guy for me, just to be sure my search worked correct?
You're good.

Carolina recently acquired UFA Nick Ritchie. We will await a decision on his real-life contract status.

1 hour ago, NMHockey said:Why Master Mind why... Ceci is not getting better with age. His issues that appeared early on keep getting worse. He's supposed to be a skilled puck moving D-man yet he does not even put up alot of points, can't run a powerplay (even with McDavid...). And he does not make up for it defensively in fact even Oilers fans want him gone just for cap space. He makes atrocious reads and does not use his size. Get rid of him in a deal for a better D-man when you can. Package him with a pick and prospect.
Codi Ceci, taken in Round 18, is expected to put up about 5.2 pts per $100K. Jacob Slavin, taken in Round 1, is expected to put up 3.78 points per $100K.

Question about drones?
1. Why didn't we see them 10 years ago? Did someone just "invent" a drone in the last 5 years?
2. What technological advancement has made them so readily available? Wasn't it easy to hook up 4 fans to a piece of plastic with an RC controller in the 90's?
To me, it just seems like a simple piece of technology and curious why we didn't see them on the shelves 10+ years ago.....why now?
I know nothing, but I just had a quick guess that it has something to do with improvements in camera technology (or at least the ability to make the same technology cheaper). If you fly a drone, but nobody on social media sees it, did you even fly it?

My workout routine is easy: 100 push ups 100 sit ups 100 squats
And 5km running everyday for 2 years.
I started testosterone therapy under the guidance of a healthcare professional some time ago. Testosterone plays a significant role in muscle growth and might lead to a reduction in body fat so I decided to give it a try. I found reviews about online testosterone and top brands. There are many types of synthetic testosterone, but testosterone cypionate remains one of the most popular.
Are you a bot?

@Bob.Loblaw sent his pick to @Caboosewho sent it to me.
Despite his Arrested Development, the Pittsburgh Penguins are proud to select Brayden McNabb.
The Hawks Army is up.

The Jays must have some data on Kikuchi after 80 pitches because they regularly pull him far earlier than what I would have expected.

It could be that I'm just overreacting to the team's recent issues with scvoring runs, but lately I'm wondering if maybe this team just simply isn't as good as everyone thought.
The goal in the offseason was to get better defensively and the team certainly did that....but I'm wondering if maybe having Teo and Gurriel in the lineup wasn't covering up a fundamentally flawed offence?
The overall numbers are decent, but this team just can't seem to string hits together and it almost never delivers in the clutch. Too many of the hitters don't seem to consider what the situation dictates. Instead, they just go up there and react, hoping for a good result, rather than having a plan that fits the situation.
I know there has been a lot of talk about Schneider and Martinez not doing the job, but I doubt there's a coach in A ball that doesn't teach his players to go up there and look for a good pitch to hit.
Maybe these guys just aren't good enough....
Vladdy's issue is between the ears IMO.
The within-game inconsistency in plate approaches is mind boggling. He can fight for a 8 pitch walk and then the very next AB hit a first-pitch grounder that was outside the zone. I just don't think there ever has been a veteran that taught Vladdy anything in-game. At least I never see guys talking to him about his approach in the dugout.
