I thought I read somewhere that the new agreement with Sweden meant that we had his rights longer.
To be eligible for the CHL, he'd have to be picked in the import draft, which the Flyers should be able to arrange via the Hunters or Russ Farwell or Stothers.
I know he needs to be selected in the import draft to be eligible to play in the CHL. My question is, would playing in the CHL potentially move his signing deadline up to the 2 year threshold rather than the 4? Since its been 2 years across the board for all prospects, I didn't really know how it would work. I would think it would still be 4 since he wasn't drafted out of the CHL, but that's only a guess.
Is anyone else really impressed that cousins has been able to have such a good year in the ohl with all the issues looming over his head? Personally, I wouldn't have blamed him if he were unable to focus and slipped a bit but he's been really good. Hopefully he's found innocent and it turns out to be a non-issue, but obviously if he's found guilty he should serve the proper punishment.

I'm more impressed he is able to have the year he is having with the dearth of talent the S.S. Greyhounds have.
he has over 30 pts more than the 2nd highest point producer on the team. 33 percent more . Thats a huge discrepency.
It's not like he is feeding some first line winger that is on a tear, his teammates are not so hot.

A somewhat minor thing, but something that has always bugged me; being found "not guilty" is not the same thing as "innocent".

I'd argue being found "not guilty" is the same thing as being found "innocent", but "being found not guilty" truly isn't the same as being found "innocent" or "being found innocent". But in the legal aspect it is, so I guess you either go with it or you don't.

What he was basically say, that "reasonable doubt" still leaves a lot to interpretation. For example, a person could be 90% sure that someone committed a crime, but find them mot guilty based on there being a reasonable doubt about their guilt.
OJ Simpson was found "not guilty", but every juror interviewed left the impression that, in their mind, he probably committed the crime, but it wasn't proven beyond that shadow of doubt.

Quite obviously, but you know what I mean. Whether or not he's actually innocent is an entirely different discussion. But if he's found not guilty then all we can assume is that he's innocent because we really don't have any other information.
Mark Alt is having a rough year this year. In terms of raw skill, there's lots to like about what he brings to the table. However, he's going to need someone to really help him bring it all together. The work ethic is there and at the very least, he should be a very competent bottom pairing guy. But, if someone can help him put it all together, he could be a real solid number 3 - 4 guy.

Someting new about Alt??? Really looking forward about this guy.
For anybody who has seen him play, does Mathers look like someone who could take a regular shift on the 4th line without being a liability?
He looks fine at this level, but in reality Superstar is considered one of the best players in Halifax Mooseheads history and yet he's our worst player. So I doubt it but you never know.

3rd line, 10-15 goals power forward with a mean streak and I'd **** my pants out of joy.
