Alex Henery = Wayne Gretzky

A lot of you may not like hockey as a sport, but you can't deny that it is one. And Wayne Gretsky was the best.

Coming out of OMJHL it wasn't Wayne's skating skills that had WHA scouts salivating. It was his scoring, as well as his Hockey ready name that made him the player he is today.

Alex is no M. Vick or Locker for that matter when it comes down to speed, and us Hen Huggers aren't trying to dispute that, but what the haters don't get is that it's not about how fast he is. It's more about how fast he can kick you in the nuts. He's fast and elusive enough to out run any Defensive Lineman, and yet he is a Kicker, so if a defender pisses him off he can kick him in the nuts with ease.

In conclusion - Gretzky may not have the best jumper in the game, but nobody jumps in hockey, they score. Same with Alex, he may not be the most accurate QB out there, but who cares, Kickers always lead the league in scoring anyways. Just like Gretzky.

      Time to Start Roughing Out the '26--Needs and Pecking Order

      By 45catfan · Posted

      Ok, we ain't making the playoffs unless something insanely crazy happens and plus it's November, time to start planning for the draft this spring.  Pretty simple, list our positions of need, address in the draft (or left to FA) and round we should draft that need. Currently we have 8 selections, the actual slot in each round still to be determined by finishing order, but I can't see a huge swing one way or the other. (This as of Week 10) Needs: (no particular order) ILB, CB, DL, Edge, S, QB, IOL, OT Rd1: ILB/EDGE Rd2:OT Rd3:Edge/ILB (opposite of round 1) Rd4:S Rd5-a:CB Rd5-b:QB Rd6:IOL Rd7:DL

      Isn’t XL the player Nicole Tepper told Canales to trade-up for during draft day?

      Yeah it is along the lines of ‘fraud vitiates everything’, it just prevents an honest assessment.  You got guys with some acknowledged issues, really swimming upstream due to the quality of the QB.    I think back to game two this year when he got a lot of targets and was unable to do anything. When you look back nothing, or maybe one, was in a decent place for him to get.  I think it was week two. And ‘a lot’ maybe be overstating but there were a few.
