Bill Armstrong said a 2nd-round pick has about a 30% chance of making the NHL.
Turns out… he’s almost dead on.
Since 2003:
• 1st-round picks: 63.9% reach 100 NHL games
• 2nd-round picks: 33.4%
• 3rd-round picks: 19.9%
The drop-off after Round 1 is steeper than most fans realize.

Hearing that the Florida Panthers are getting close to acquiring Brady Tkachuk from the Ottawa Senators.
I believe Ottawa will get three first-round picks and a second-round pick in the deal if finalized. More to come.
If Mr. Saturday Night scores in game 6 vs Buffalo, we are giving away an official jersey!

The recession indicator nobody's watching just collapsed 32%.
Heavy Truck Sales.
When companies stop buying $150K trucks, they know something you don't.
Here is the rule:
Truck sales rising → Businesses expanding, economy strong
Truck sales flat 3+ months → Warning, growth slowing
Truck sales crashing 20%+ → Recession already here
Heavy truck sales just dropped 32% year-over-year—steepest decline since 2009.
2008: Truck sales crashed 40% → Great Recession
2020: Truck sales crashed 35% → COVID recession
2024: Truck sales down 32% → ???
Trucking companies aren't buying because freight demand is dying.
Freight demand is dead because consumers stopped spending.
Consumers stopped spending because they're broke.
This isn't a leading indicator.
This is a confirmation.
The recession isn't coming.
It's already here.
Watch truck sales.
Ignore the GDP "growth" numbers.
ESPN’s Rich Cimini delivered a strong warning to the #Jets about drafting Oregon QB Dante Moore:
"He is only 20 years old, he has got only 18 college starts, and if you look at the recent first-round quarterbacks with fewer than 20 starts -- it is not a promising field. I'll read some names: Anthony Richardson, Trey Lance, Mac Jones, Kyler Murray, Dwayne Haskins, Mitch Trubisky, Ryan Tannehill, [and] Cam Newton," Cimini said on January 8.
"That is going back to 2011. All of the first round quarterbacks with fewer than 20 college starts. The only star of that group is Cam Newton. Ryan Tannehill had a solid long career. The rest of them [were] either busts or underachievers. So beware of the college quarterback with very few starts," Cimini explained.

Anonyme : Je suis policier depuis quinze ans.
Hier soir, j’ai arrêté un homme.
Il roulait à 90 km/h au lieu de 70, et zigzaguait.
Dans ma tête, c’était clair : conduite dangereuse.
Quand il a baissé sa vitre, il n’était pas ivre.
Il tremblait.
— Ma fille… elle est à l’hôpital pour enfants. La chimio ne fonctionne plus. Ils m’ont appelé… ils m’ont dit de venir vite.
J’ai regardé ses yeux.
La peur, la vraie, ça ne se joue pas.
J’ai rangé mon carnet.
— Suivez-moi, ai-je dit.
Gyrophares allumés.
Je l’ai escorté sur une vingtaine de kilomètres jusqu’à l’hôpital.
J’ai dégagé chaque carrefour.
Un trajet de trente minutes, fait en quinze.
Il a couru vers l’entrée sans se retourner.
Je suis resté sur le parking. Une heure.
Juste au cas où.
Quand il est revenu, son visage était vidé.
— Est-ce que je suis arrivé à temps ? ai-je demandé.
— Oui… J’ai pu lui tenir la main jusqu’au bout. Vous m’avez permis d’être là.
Il a voulu me serrer la main.
Il s’est effondré contre moi.
Parfois, servir et protéger,
ce n’est pas appliquer la loi à la lettre.
C’est savoir quand il faut être humain.
