Classic NHL officiating on display.

Bud Grant was before my time, but I have heard enough of the stories from previous generation Bomber fans to know what an amazing guy he was. I'd say Bud Grant, Cal Murphy, and now the Canadian Mafia have been three of the most dominant managers/coaching combinations in the history of the Bombers. I of course am not forgetting the 1930's-41 era but my knowledge of that era isn't as broad so if I am wrong here feel free to correct me.

His impact was incredible. RIP, Bud. Love from your Bomber family.

My childhood hero is gone. He was an icon. RIP Bud Grant.

Lost a pants shitter tonight. Shouldn't have been a close game. Classic Douchue with a horseshoe up his ass all game. I feel like I'm cursed to see a Bottcher/Douchue final just to completely destroy my soul.

must ask for this for my b-day.

TIL - Wade Miller's dad was a Bomber....

Maybe the single most important person in franchise history. He may be gone but his legend here will never fade and in that way he will out live us all.

Did Eyssimont get us one there? Helle should have probably had that, but it was also another defensive breakdown.

Lowry in, the rest out.

I suspect that Calgarians feel that they are so much on a different level that they have outgrown the CFL.

Calgary is a great city that needs new facilities and seems deadset against it for some reason. Unfortunate.

Soul survivor. Dunstone beats Bottcher. One more to go.

Most were from the perimeter. High volume shots team... we used to play that way too.

Sucker punch Jimmy Mann the legend. Still being felt by Penguin fans to this day.

The GOAT!

That is one heck of a shot by 55.

we need a 5th goal and Namesy needs a hat trick

I wish refs would call more instigation for players who start a skirmish after a clean hit.

Don’t like how JMo is looking right now.

Morrissey is going to miss a few games I fear.

"Bowness" question - who was the Jets assistant coach in 1984-1985? Man I am having so much deja vu here this year.

The Jets had a good team the year that they were 4th in the league, but they had no chance against the Oilers in Round 2 after Hawerchuk had his ribs busted by Jamie Macoun of the Flames in the third game of the first round series against the Flames. The previous seasons the Jets had made the playoffs with a losing record, thanks to the crappy division they were in. Those teams weren't that great. Reading this history book it is heartbreaking to read all of the "would haves" and "should haves" including Fergie trading away his third round draft pick in the 1984 draft to Montreal, which they used to draft Patrick Roy. That being said, the Jets did have a 2nd round pick in that draft that they used to draft Peter Douris, who played a grand total of 6 NHL games with Winnipeg.

actually interesting fact he actually sent an invite to my uncle to join the spring training camp for the Bombers...well long story short didn't he didn't end up joining the team because....I guess they didn't pay payers back then what they pay players now and my aunt was expecting my cousin

Legendary career, legendary character, legendary life ...

The S & L debacle which was a direct result of Reagan de-regulating the near-banks in the US is a compelling example of this.

Giant piece of **** is giant piece of ****...

Bud Grant’s biography “I did it my way” is an excellent read. One of the best sports biographies I’ve read.

What an a-hole.

Sad sad day.....Bud was the best headcoach this franchise has ever seen....Still hate the day he said he was heading south to join the Vikes BUT life moves on....Condolences to the family and RIP BUD ...you were the best

Rest eternal grant unto Harry, O Lord. May his soul and the souls of all the departed, in your mercy, rest in peace.

RIP Bud Grant. You had a long and fulfilling life. You will be remembered fondly. Condolences to his friends and family.

Spot on. This is so our current environment. And when someone calls me on my bullshit all I have to do is yell back Cancel Culture!

Truth and facts don't matter. Point the finger, get the soundbite out, raise alarm, cause divisions based on misinformation. All in the desire for power and control. It doesn't really matter if you are proven completely incorrect as the followers dismiss that as bias. The damage has already been done.

we're allowed to have ONE!

Smith backstabbed Fergie to get the GM job with the Jets.

well I guess we'll have to wait til tomorrow to find out for sure (but I am very confident that's what it is....god I wish this damn virus would vacate my body already...not that I would have been planning on trying it tomorrow)

damn you panthers let's hope there aren't mass suspensions tomorrow
