I hope Sven turns into a quality top 6 winger for the Flames, because that would be better for the organization than a 5th round pick.

Upsetting? Really?

First, no one is burying Sven. He's a first round pick, and the highest pick playing but for Monahan. He's bound to have attention paid to him. Good or bad.

I don't think that's fair and puts you in a position of not being able to defend your commentary. What is posted here should stay here for discussion. You should be happy as most agreed with your post. But then again, they should have.

Oh, don't get me wrong - I really don't care if someone copies/pastes my posts onto other sites, whether it be "Hey, this is a great post I wanted to share" or "Look at this idiot posting up this drivel that you guys have to get a good laugh at". FFF or anyone else are free and able to do so, and I really couldn't care less, and in no way am I upset about it even without knowing what context it was made in. I also don't look down on HF - I just don't have the time nor do I have the interest to carry on the same conversations there as I can find here. I am sure there are great and terrible posters on there as there are in any site. I just find this one more active and I know which posters I trust with regards to information, insights and opinions already and enjoy reading their specific posts - even if their topics or ideas are contrary to my own at times. I do post in some other forums on HF occasionally, but for the most part I am just reading in some of the other team forums.

Besides, why would I want to go anywhere else for Sven-related conversations when I would say everyone is getting their fill and then some here? LoL

Ashasx, you jump all over corsi numbers after "good" games...why don't you ever post the corsi numbers of Gaudreau/Baertschi/Brodie when they have an "off" game?

I just thought it was strange to post a single game corsi of ANY player. Isn't corsi a stat that you need a large sample to get any accurate information, and isn't it also used to observe trends over the long run, and not any short term success or failures?

Single game corsi is useless to me anyway.
