The 2015-16 NHL season was the lowest point for Canada's franchises, as all seven teams missed the playoffs.

This time it worked out, as the Maple Leafs used their top pick in the 2016 draft to select their next big star: Auston Matthews.

Arrows Putting arrows at last because it is the most boring, most complicated, most difficult to understand item among all the items. Even experienced coaches can hardly guarantee getting the arrow of the correct spine. It is best to test with arrows of the spine and length wanted before buying. In reality it is challenging to find the wanted spine and length for trial as everyone has a different draw length hence arrow length.

The life on the run included the Czech Republic, Lithuania and Kazakhstan, but things settled down when California became his home front in 1991. Still, the slow down didn’t obstruct his 59-3 career record, and the four heavyweight championship belts that he owns. On the way, the deadly blows he inflicts have him nicknamed the steel hammer. But being the toughest guy on Earth doesn’t prevent him from admitting to a frailty that the rest of us could certainly identify with.

Skyler SaundersPublished 2 years ago in UnbalancedNFL Week One - My three biggest Surprises
To attribute week one of the NFL’s 2022 regular season a ‘surprising’ one would be a weighty understatement. I struggle to recall another season in recent memory to which held so many storylines, upsets and diversions from pre-established narrative. These surprises range from Baker Mayfield’s struggles within his supposed ‘revenge game’ – or Rodgers’ utter inability to keep the game close against his divisional rival. Chief amongst my surprise are three games in particular. Though, of course, it is a gross generalisation to pinpoint my shock to three games, I feel these set were the most egregiously unexpected.
