Rudolfs Berzkalns highlight mix. The 6'4 center is highly aware defensively, great along the wall, has excellent mobility, and don't underestimate his playmaking ability. Can easily see him as a bottom six center one day. But there is some skill he brings out. #LetsGoOilers
Per @eliteprospects data:
102 CHL players drafted. That's more than 2x USHL/NCAA/NTDP combined.
Of the 55 USA flagged players drafted, 20 of them played in the CHL last season. This ratio will be higher next draft.
If your goal is to be an NHL pick, the math is very clear.

“Mike, we didn’t bring you here to get 1,500 games, we brought you here to win a cup.”
Babcock health bombing Modano in the second last game of the season, and then playing him in the final for him to come one game short of 1,500GP is villain behaviour.

I see your profile picture. That’s Johnny Cash. My hero too. Arrested seven times. Smuggled 668 amphetamines across the Mexican border in 1965. Took every drug there was and drank like I did. Cheated on his first wife. Slept with more woman than I ever did. Hit bottom in a cave in Tennessee in 1968 trying to crawl off and die. And then he got up. He got clean. He spent the rest of his life singing for prisoners and addicts and the people the country threw away because he knew he was one of them.
That was the whole point of the Man in Black. He wore it for the poor and the beaten down. He wore it for the prisoner who has long paid for his crime. He wore it for the ones who never heard a word of Jesus. He wore it for the addicted and the dying. He wore it as a standing witness that no one is past saving.
You picked his picture. You did not pick his message. Try listening to the words.
