The drama of the draft lottery has now played out. We now know Connor McDavid will sport the copper and blue of the Edmonton Oilers. Unless something unforeseen occurs: McDavid pulls a Lindros (don’t see that happening) or Chiarelli pulls a Seguin (think he learned from that deal). Let’s get right to the picks.
Coyotes love their Knights. In somewhat of a surprise pick (to some), Arizona gets a player they feel will be a dynamic sparkplug difference-maker.

With the preliminary roster announcements for the World Junior Championships being made, we’ll take a look at some of the top players to watch for during the tournament taking place December 26, 2013-January 5, 2014 in Malmö, Sweden. We’ll begin with the talent-heavy Team Canada roster.
Barring any setbacks from an injury sustained from a QMJHL game in which he was hit from behind by fellow Tampa Bay Lightning prospect Adam Erne, Jonathan Drouin is expected to lead the way for Canada and is a pre-tournament favorite for MVP. As the video below shows, Drouin has quite possibly the best hands of any player who will be participating in Malmö.
The third-overall pick of the Lightning holds Canada’s hopes in his hands. This dynamic player has game breaking talents and can completely change momentum in a single shift. Coming off of a 105-point season (in just 49 games) with the Halifax Mooseheads, he’ll be a big contributor offensively for Team Canada.
Like Drouin, Griffin Reinhart comes into the tournament with previous World Junior experience from the year before. First and foremost, the defenseman will have to sit out the first three games as he serves the remainder of a four-game suspension handed down by the International Ice Hockey Federation for high-sticking U.S. forward Vince Trocheck in last year’s semifinal.
Reinhart is a big, physical defenseman who plays a sound game. He can also contribute offensively, typically making a strong breakout pass to start the rush. The New York Islanders fourth-overall pick in 2012 has the ability to eat a lot of minutes on the blue line, so his absence will be felt through the early preliminary games.
Aaron Ekblad will be one of the players who will have to fill the void while Reinhart is ineligible. The defenseman is one of the top prospects heading into the 2014 NHL Draft. At this point, he’s considered a near lock to be selected in the top five.
Ekblad is a true two-way defenseman and can make things happen in all three zones of the ice. Given his hockey sense and ability to pass the puck, look for him to quarterback Team Canada’s power play unit. Even though he’ll be 17 when the tournament begins, don’t look for him to be rattled by the big stage. He’s got tremendous poise and confidence.
Sam Reinhart will join his older sibling Griffin to become the third Canadian brother pairing at World Juniors. The forward could very well be the first-overall pick in the 2014 draft. Although he’s a natural center, he’ll move over and play the right wing in the tournament because of Canada’s depth in the middle.
During the selection process Hockey Canada management made a concerted effort to select players with a high hockey IQ. That trend continues with Sam Reinhart. In addition to his intelligence and instincts, he possesses great vision and a good set of hands. As shown by his willingness to move to the wing, the Kootenay Ice forward is a true team player and will do anything to win. For both Sam Reinhart and Aaron Ekblad the World Juniors will provide the stage to solidify their place at the top of the draft.
This list would not be complete without the one some are calling the “next Crosby.” Connor McDavid has for a longtime been penciled in as the first-overall pick of the 2015 draft. Although the world is anxiously awaiting to see the prospect, McDavid is far from a lock to make this team. Because of his late birth year (1997) and Canada’s aforementioned depth at the center position, McDavid may have to pay his dues before making the squad.
One reason why McDavid has garnered so much attention is because of his ability to make those around him better players: a true sign of a great talent. While McDavid currently finds himself sixth in scoring in the OHL, the success of his linemates has been the real story. Connor Brown leads the league in points, while Dane Fox is the top goal scorer.
Other players to keep an eye on: Defenseman Matt Dumba, forward Bo Horvat, forward Hunter Shinkaruk and goaltender Zach Fucale.

“Those whom the splendor of their rank, or the extent of their capacity, have placed upon the summit of human life have not often given any just occasion to envy in those who look up to them from a lower station.”
I. When the Black Sox scandal was breaking in 1920 (it turned out that a consortium of gamblers convinced several Chicago White Sox players to “throw” the 1919 World Series), Judge Kenesaw Mountain Landis, the first czar of baseball, announced that no matter what juries may decide, “no player that throws a ball game will ever again play professional baseball.” He eventually banned seven players for life, including “Shoeless” Joe Jackson, one of the greatest players of the pre-Ruth era. “Say it ain’t so, Joe” became the cry of hero-worshipping boys across the country.
Shoeless Joe, it turns out, was almost certainly not guilty of anything but knowing about the gamblers’ scheme and consorting with his conspirator teammates. He hit .375 in the Series, made a record 12 hits, and even told White Sox owner Charles Comiskey that the fix was in. But the dirt stuck to him, Judge Landis wouldn’t budge, so Shoeless Joe was deprived of his livelihood and good name. He did say it wasn’t so, and maintained his innocence until his death. Comiskey and other owners tried hard to cover up the scandal, and received nothing more than slaps on the wrist. Judge Landis, although not an entirely admirable character in his own right, probably did what he had to do to “save baseball,” but the guys who took the fall were not the ones who controlled the game.
II. Like every other institution of significance, The Pennsylvania State University in its current predicament seeks to protect itself, whether this means sand-bagging or stonewalling or outright lying. Backs to the wall, its Trustees are now engaged in “house-cleaning,” or finding scapegoats significant enough to deflect public attention away from the systemic and moral problems inherent in all large institutions. That so many of its self-righteous critics point immediately to an analogy with the Catholic Church–a reaction both predictable and silly–tells us more about them than about Penn State. As Dr. Johnson knew so well, neither those who are envied nor those who envy often distinguish themselves. Remember Edward Arlington Robinson’s poem, “Richard Cory,” put to music by Simon and Garfunkel? It’s a little twist on one of the oldest human problems, done up in a lighter fashion in the song from Camelot, “I Wonder What the King, is Doing Tonight?”
Does it surprise anyone who has read Sophocles or King Lear or Dr. Johnson (or, for that matter, the Watergate tapes) that power tends to be corrupting? We didn’t need Lord Acton to tell us that. The problem is, the left almost always gets it wrong, and the left, of course makes up the loudest voices in the anti-PSU and particularly ant-Paterno chorus. Ever since about 1600, government, not churches, businesses, colleges, or football coaches, has been the primary source of power abused; in fact, there are several things going on in Washington right now that put the Penn State scandal into the category of small potatoes. “The destructive capacity of the individual,” Paul Johnson reminds us, “however vicious, is small; of the state, however well-intentioned, almost limitless.” If we don’t keep this in perspective as the media wolves howl louder and louder, many good people will be hurt than have already been hurt, and the crisis will again be used to increase power in the most dangerous locus of all. That’s the way the left works.
Nevertheless, and conservative critics of Penn State officials have pointed this out, power tends to affect us as individuals being acted upon by other individuals. Actions, or lack of actions, matter. And here we confront the case of Joe Paterno.
Paterno, son of Catholic Italian-American working class parents, raised in Brooklyn, honors graduate of Brown, has had one job in his life. He went to work for Rip Engel at Penn State in 1950 and never left. He was a dutiful assistant for 16 years, and head coach for 46. For almost 62 years he set a standard of excellence that is unmatched in the history of American sports. Until about a week ago his name was never associated with anything salacious, immoral, illegal, or even off-color. He was a model husband and father. His impact on the game of football and on thousands of young men, and on his university, was altogether for the good. In a matter of days he was fired, disgraced, threatened with legal consequences; the center of a moral firestorm unheard of in American athletics since the Black Sox scandal. The proximate cause of the disgrace is the possibility that he, in his own interest and that of his university, took insufficient action to publicize and prosecute the alleged sexual sins of his longtime assistant coach, Jerry Sandusky. There may be deeper causes involved.
About Mr. Sandusky we should have no opinion. He has been indicted and arrested, and the law will take its course. As for Joe Paterno, whose supposed lack of action has been treated by the pundocracy as nearly equivalent to those things of which Sandusky has been charged, perhaps we should have an opinion. In the case of Sandusky it is a matter of guilt or innocence of serious crimes. In the case of Joe Paterno it is a matter of much deeper things. The left cried “McCarthyism” at almost every suggestion of criticism of their actions or agenda. Just what are they crying in this case? One doesn’t take down an icon and throw it in the fire just to create space on the wall, one has to hate the icon or something it stands for.
The adventures of Aeneas seeped into far corners of my mind, into my feelings about what is true and honorable and important. They helped shape everything I have since become. I don’t think anybody can get a handle on what makes me tick as a person, and certainly can’t get at the roots of how I coach football, without understanding what I learned from the deep relationship I formed with Virgil….
He first read the Aeneid in Latin, challenged by a young Jesuit at Brooklyn Prep to get more out of himself. At Brown he majored in literature. Football, because he understood it so well, became for him the path to pietas, the Roman virtue that encompasses love of family, locality, and honor to the gods. His family centered in Sue and the children, his locality Penn State, and his God the Christian God worshiped in the Catholic Church.
III.Joe was always a difficult man, intense, in-your-face. But it was always because of what he believed, not because he needed power. The opportunities he turned down over the years for money and control would have tempted even the most saintly of men. But…is it possible, is it conceivable that all those years and the habits of success in Happy Valley created what the Romans called “clientage?” Did the Virgilian virtues turn him into a paterfamilias who expected to be honored and even obeyed? Between clients and the patron in ancient Rome there were reciprocal duties: The client gave obedience, the patron gave protection. Reciprocal duties are delicate things, hard to put in boxes, hard to define their perimeters. The same was true in the middle ages in the concept of fidelio.
Barry Switzer says that, given the closeness of football staffs and athletic departments, it is impossible not to believe that “everyone” knew about Jerry Sandusky. Having lived and worked most of my life in small associations, and having coached a fair amount of football, I would tend to agree, but with a caveat. Dedicated coaches, especially those with a moral as well as mundane purpose, often have tunnel vision. They may see the entire playing field and have an incredibly nuanced understanding of the battle placements and the ability of each of their troops to carry out the plan, but they may not know where their colleagues live or what their wives did on any given day, or whether the lawn needs mowing. I would not be so cynical as to assume what Joe knew, or when he knew it. Shoeless Joe’s guilt was more apparent than real.
IV. And what does all this have to do with the conservative imagination? I am well aware that almost as many conservatives as leftists dislike violent sports, and, indeed, all sports that are subsidized by “higher education.” Russell Kirk was not fond of professionalized athletics in colleges–he approved of vigorous physical activity, but only if it were rather unorganized and fitted in with the Greek ideal of mens sana in corpore sano. I have to admit that my happiest jock years were spent playing rugby on Sundays in Forest Park in St. Louis–no coaches, hit each other in good fun, drink beer after the games and lie to each other about our manliness, with our wives and children there to add to the fun and laugh at our lies.
Nevertheless, the feminization of our culture requires that there be outlets for manhood. Does anyone really think that the incredible popularity of violent sports and NASCAR are accidental? Joe Paterno understood this at a very young age, at some level where gut and brain come together. He is thus one of the good guys that conservatives should honor. I’ll take him over his detractors any time, any day, under any circumstances. Somebody needs to guard the city, and to honor the God who gives him the strength.
Quite. Heretic burnings, witch-trials, expect more of the lot, due partly to an angry and decadent nation bankrolling a greedy and irresponsible media. Especially if reporters are too ignorant to cover the Euro-meltdown, and tired of stories that make Mr. Obama look hapless at best. Nice old fellows who focus on football have little chance, I fear. Next we'll learn that in 1958 he told a lady that her cocktail-dress was flattering!
As an academic teacher I have mixed feelings about our obsession with organized sports. I myself am happiest with Academic Decathlon or AP classes. However, as a conservative I recognize one fact. The Athletic Departments like the AG departments are often the only ones to be conservative/Republican in sympathy. Perhaps because they are the last citadel of individualism, merit and masculinity. I am not sure. But this whole affair is very sad and shows that underneath all the glitz and money there is a hedonist strain in modern American culture that would be at home with Tiberius or Caligula.
Mr Munro, on target as usual. my greatest sports-shock, maybe 30 years ago, was discovering dwarf-wrestling on television. Seemed a bit decadent, wot? in mind's eye, college football still lives somewhere between the wars, with the virtues you describe.
I'm going to add to this. One Michael Tomasky, who is a lefty and claims to love football (no lefties love football–they only wish they could be jocks) says that Joe Paterno is "totally and eternally inexcusable" in his response to being told about Sandusky's sins. Isn't it interesting that a liberal nonbeliever has an insight into the eternal mind of God? In the prolonged discussion of this matter on the "news," I have never heard the word "heinous" used so many times, usually to describe Sandusky's crimes, but often to describe Joe Paterno's lack of white horse valor. I have read a hundred books about Hitler and Stalin and have never seen the word "heinous" as many times. This situation may be, to many of you, my conservative friends on TIC, a sideline to the "real" issues of the day, but it is much more. Every decent man who understands Virgil we let get may-maued by the left is a serious and grave issue. If they can destroy Joe Paterno they can back to, among other things, the happy slaughter of their babies without much interference from us. We just talk about politics.
I am not someone who should ever review music, my tastes being without pattern when they exist at all. But, my students and an old friend have recently introduced me to a very intriguing band who released their second album to great fanfare in late 2012. Mumford & Sons, a quartet from west London who play a version of American folk rock music, have travelled the U.S. in their “Gentlemen of the Road” tour. Last evening a friend who has gone to their concerts described them to me as full of “20-somethings who love the music and 40-60 year olds who are there pondering the deep meaning of the lyrics.” Since I am in the latter age category, I’ve got a few thoughts about some of their lyrics which I find full of Platonic imagery and deep meaning.
This week the students in my political leadership course at the University of Louisville and I discussed Plato’s famous Allegory of the Cave and, though I don’t assume to know what the song writer meant, the parallels between the Mumford & Sons song The Cave, and the Platonic story are impossible to miss. (As are illusions to Homer and other ancient texts, but I won’t confuse things too much today).
Mumford & Sons seems to sing to a fellow human being, perhaps a lover, who is still shackled to the stake of ignorance in the cave:
It’s undeniably true that Truth-seeking/finding “servants” have sometimes been “mocked, dismissed, and perhaps even forcibly reeducated or killed”: the name “Socrates” comes to mind. It’s also true, though, that individuals who claim to have discerned the higher Truth which eludes the rest of us–those of us who choose to “fit in” and remain in our “cave of ignorance”–have done more than their share of mocking, dismissing, forcibly reeducating and killing. The Platonic/Gnostic presumption of enlightenment poses dangers of its own; not that I think Mumford & Sons poses any threat, but I’d be cautious about constructing a political/social platform on the basis of Truth.
Wonderful reflection on this moving song! It was a very exciting moment when I listened closely to the lyrics and realized the connections to the Allegory of the Cave. I now play this song for students in my Intro. to Philosophy class when we discuss Plato…it’s fun to watch the light bulbs turn on, since many of the 20 somethings are fans of the band, but hadn’t reflected on the philosophical, literary, and biblical references made in many of the songs (Marcus Mumford studied Classics at Edinburgh and his parents are Vineyard church missionaries). If we are truly in the “age of sentiments,” at least Mumford and Sons is one of the few popular bands out there giving young people meaningful ideas to consider.
While I’m more than a little skeptical of Munford and Sons’ musical merit, to each his own. Where can I find that marvelous mug?
Really glad I stumbled on this. I always knew the this Mumford and Sons song alluded to Plato’s allegory, but I had never bothered to find out in what way. Until I saw an episode of the West Wing, when Josh Lyman pointed out the Cave as it pertains to some guys phone book repackaging famous philosophers as a hack job. But this article was a wonderful light and thoughtful reflection. Thank you!
With vacation over Saturday, I already have that “did that really happen?” feeling…The routine of life is back, and I need to remind myself that it was just last week that we stepped out of our reality. While we had a delightful time, there are some memories that I want to stick with me over others.
Every summer we go to a family place in the Northwoods of Wisconsin where we see familiar faces as well as new ones. This year we met a new family through an unusual experience. My husband, Mike, and I were out fishing on the dock one afternoon when one of the pontoon boats was returning. It had been just a few minutes prior that we wondered why there was a new wooden ramp added to the end of the dock, and in a minute, we were about to learn why.
The boat looked like it was headed straight for the end of the dock instead of pulling up alongside of it. I looked at Mike like, “Do these people know how to drive?” and as the boat ran into the dock, I suggested to them, “Are you sure you don’t want to come in on the side?” and the woman who was driving answered, “Well, they said I should come in on the end…” and it was at that moment that I really looked at them and saw that the man on the boat was in a motorized wheelchair. Then it all clicked. The ramp was so that he could get on the boat…and they needed to line up with it so that he could ride off. After I shook off my “dork moment,” I offered to help them dock the boat. Mike and I pulled them in and anchored them as tightly as we could, and then I bent down to pick up the ramp so that it could face the opposite way for the man to drive off the boat.
Problem. The ramp was fastened to the dock. As the man drove to the edge, the boat sunk down much lower than the ramp. What to do now?
Geniuses that we were, we realized that if we all moved to the back of the boat, the pontoon’s front would rise up and as the chair got closer to the edge, it met up nicely with the downward facing ramp. Problem solved, right?!
Yeah…no. We watched the man drive his chair to the edge, meet the ramp, and begin to drive down it. But with the majority of the weight of his chair no longer on the front of the boat, the boat began to rise…and the chair’s smaller back wheels that were still on the boat were lifted up…and the chair sprang forward. It was a slow-motion scene that I saw happening but couldn’t act on fast enough, and we all watched the chair throw the man onto the dock for a major face plant.
Thankfully, the chair—which we later learned weighed 400 pounds—did not land on him but returned to its normal position after jettisoning its occupant. A couple of other guys on the dock saw the fall and came running to help. Obviously, we were all very concerned about the man—now lying with the side of his face pressed against the dock. Kneeling next to him, I asked him if he was okay. He was a bit shook up, but he calmly said, “I’m okay. I’m fine.” Just very matter of fact.
And in that moment, I saw the vulnerability and strength of this guy. It was one of those times where so much seems apparent in just a second. He couldn’t do anything to help himself—he just looked kindly into my eyes and half smiled. Here was a vibrant person, face down on the dock, knowing that’s exactly where he’d remain if it was all up to him. He was completely dependent on others, and there was nothing else to do but accept that and keep doing things…like going on family vacations and taking a boat out with his wife and sons to catch some fish.
Wow. For someone like me, who is striving to be more vulnerable in this world, it was a real a-ha moment. Granted, I don’t really know how this man handles his challenges overall, but in that moment, he was graciously accepting complete surrender.
After we assessed that he was okay, his wife explained that he was 200 pounds of dead weight. We took a collective breath and formed a quick plan of getting the chair in a safe position and then lifting the man back onto it.
With some teamwork, we successfully got him seated and ready to roll. His knees and elbows were banged up, but other than that, he was fine. He took the face plant with amazing grace.
Melissa shared with us that they go through life laughing an awful lot—because what else is there to do? With the exceptional challenges their family faces, they keep laughing and living and trying in the best way that they can.
I’m so glad I got a chance to share in Jay and Melissa’s world even for just a teensy bit. Not only were they lovely people, but they helped me remember that no matter what “chair” you’re in, the best thing to do is just keep on rolling. And when the occasional face plant comes your way, accept help with grace and gratitude, and remember that we are all in this together.

Afghanistan’s peaceful future depends on an auspicious regional environment, with Pakistan at its core. Vice versa, an unstable Afghanistan will complicate Pakistan’s ability to refurbish its weak state and economy and suppress dangerous internal militancy.
Pakistan is under heavy pressures by the international community, especially after the US new strategy on Afghanistan and the South Asia that blames Islamabad for harboring extremist groups and not seriously working in combat terrorism.
On Thursday, US Central Command Commander Gen Joseph Votel asked Pakistan to use its influence over the Taliban in bringing them for peace talks.”This is the message the American leaders often pass on to Pakistan”, Votel told reporters at a Pentagon news conference, asking Islamabad to ensure Taliban leaders do not use their territory to issue instructions and give directions for terrorist activities across the border in Afghanistan
While Pakistan has been acting against certain terrorist groups, Votel said the assessment of the US was that they were still present in Pakistan.”As we often talk with the military leadership in Pakistan, we need them to continue to stay engaged in this. We need them to help lower the violence Afghanistan,” Votel said.
According to Vote,Pakistan instead of supporting the terror groups, should make it sure that no instructions, directions, other things from Taliban leadership reached their fighters on the ground in Afghanistan and the country needed to ensure that there could be no movement back and forth and that fighters could not come back into Pakistan to get aid or medical care or other things and pave the ground for peace in the region.
“Afghans were committed to securing their people as the country moved forward to conduct its first parliamentary elections in eight years later this month.The taste for peace and reconciliation remains strong following this summer’s cease-fire, and we continue to see local reconciliation initiatives around the country,” he said.
It is hoped that the precious lives and blood of our soldiers and people will not go in vain rather they will ensure peace and stability for the nation, if not now, in the future. Whenever negotiation is proved abortive, blood will be the only remedy to protect the rights and dignity of a nation.
Meanwhile, the most important factor at the moment is that Pakistan must pursue its commitments with true intentions. It has to understand that without combating the terrorism jointly it is impossible to defeat it in both countries as they share a lengthy and porous border.
As per President Ghani, Afghanistan was seeking a long-seated peace; peace between the two countries and peace among the government and armed opponents, adding there is an unexpected hostility between Afghanistan and Pakistan, but joint efforts needed to reach a prosperous future. It is also important that both countries must leave behind the past and renew their efforts in this regard, as in order to reach to future goals, both countries have to overcome the past. Meanwhile going forward requires a movement and joint cooperation against the threats.

Yakuza Kiwami is a remake of the first game in the Yakuza series from SEGA. Those who only know about the modern games of the series will feel right at home, while those who played the first title will get to see this everything in a better light. The story and characters remain the same from the original release, but Yakuza Kiwami adds new cutscenes and some gameplay elements from recent entries of the series, making for a polished retelling of the 2005 PlayStation 2 game. It might not be as long or over-the-top as other Yakuza games, but Yakuza Kiwami does a good job of reimagining the start of the franchise.
Unlike in the original release, you can now use multiple fighting styles much like in the game’s prequel, Yakuza 0. Beyond that, fighting enemies and moving around the city of Kamurocho is almost identical to the rest of the series. You still have those random mini-games you can find in the local arcades of the city, but they aren’t as abundant as in later games. Much of the focus is more on the story and battles than the time wasters in other Yakuza games.
In addition, you’ll find yourself fighting the crazy Goro Majima in random places around Kamurocho, which help you level up a Dragon Style of fighting. It can take a long while gaining enough experience or fighting enough battles to level up to MAX, but the moves and abilities you gain are helpful along the way.
The story of Yakuza Kiwami is exactly what you might expect if you played the original game it’s based on. If you never did, however, or if you only played a few of the recent games, then you’ll have a better experience with the origins of the series. Kiriyu Kazama takes the blame for a murder committed by his best friend and goes to jail for ten years, before returning to Kamurocho and seeing how the criminal underworld has changed. While it has a slow start with a few very dull moments, a lot of the excitement comes from the big battles related to the story.
There’s a lot of twists and turns with the plot, including a few surprises and double crosses that fans of the Yakuza series will already see coming, but their presentation is much better this time around. For Kiwami however, there’s an additional 30 minutes of story cutscenes that give more story details and build connections to other games that fans will appreciate.
Yakuza Kiwami is a big visual upgrade for the first game, making it look and feel more in line with the latest games of the series. The cutscenes look very good and make a lot of the action and drama look important, yet stylish. The city of Kamurocho looks great with its bright lights and bustling streets, most of which are filled with bystanders crowding the area.
It can get a little annoying when you’re running around and constantly bump into people that are just there randomly, which can sometimes bring your movement to a halt. The design of the environments does begin to show its age when you find spots with invisible barriers or stoic people lingering around, but visual details on everything still look good none the less.
If you’ve only gotten into playing the Yakuza games recently, then you’ll have a lot to enjoy with Yakuza Kiwami. As a remake, what you get is a solid revisiting of what made the Yakuza series so interesting, while still having enough room for all the improvements from later games. The visual update and additional content are good, despite some of the game’s older problems still lingering around. It’s not a perfect reimagining of the first Yakuza game, but it definitely gets the job done.
