I just realized what I miss about TSN's coverage, they had the names of potential draft picks on the right hand side of the screen. SN won't do that

ooo I wonder where Pavel Zacha is from?

Canes just claimed him

how good is he?

Kind of makes me wonder who will perform the halftime show

ugh how could the Bruins have stolen our thunder?!

didn't sportsnet show the draft last year?

wait the Bruins have how many picks in round one?

the kings? of all the teams out there. You know it would have been so nice if Vancouver ended up getting their revenge on the Bruins

I wonder if there will be a trade announcement during the draft this year

and for some strange reason the yotes are clamoring for a 3rd overall draft pick

Happy Draft day everyone

oh yeah which one was that again?

I just heard something about the Canucks inquiring about Lucic.....MUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA who knows we've all seen how Lucic has done, and I actually do want to see it happen for more reasons than one

yeah they probably will, and judging by the schedule (and it looks like I may have to go to Celebrations Dinner Theater on the 30th, even though my mother is ecstatic about the Moose returning. but to be honest I am just not feeling the AHL energy I used to, i kind of wish there would be a switch up game where the Moose are playing in Jets uniforms and the moose are playing in jets informs, or switch those shifts or something, and now I'm just babbling)

Well they kind of do UP since the NHL in Winnipeg is a huge thing. And I wouldn't be surprised if True North is involved with the festivities either since they have planned several events at IGF in recent years (I saw Sir Paul two years ago, so worth it!)Oka okay I should point out that my mind was in autodrive and sometimes it doesn't think that logically (just like sometimes my fingers aren't in the right position when I am in autodrive when I type on my laptop)

I think I can understand how it would make the league more equal, since you said either way 16 teams make the playoffs with two more the league is a little more equal charts wise, but does this mean one team switches conferences? But if push comes to shove who could we afford to lose to one of the expansion teams? I can see this meaning at least one players from each farm team will end up being promoted to the big leagues

Probably a smart move.

I've put them in there other years. Bomber games I will probably do. Jets games are too many because I have to enter them in manually. No import. oh, so I just noticed. I just it was May when I last looked at it or something

Hey Rich, have you other admins ever thought of adding Bomber Game dates to the Calendar on this forum? since it mostly just shows member birthdays maybe it should include dates of Bomber and Jets games

how so? can you explain. You make it sound like the expansion will be good for the jets economy wise (but not so much playoff wise, but then again if the Jets 1.0 and the Thrashers struggled in their first seasons so will the two new teams, and the RedBlacks first season basically proved that expansion teams don't necessarily make the playoffs in the first season (I mean Jets 2.0 did great in their first season, but not great enough to enter the playoffs)

yeah I am retracting that because it's too far (maybe they should just put another arena where the old one used to be, seriously the Winnipeg Arena went down 9 years ago and have they done ANYTHING with that spot?)

one of the best players we have had and he is going to bail due to negotiations falling through.

it should it kind of has to because we are stuck with them. Why can't they just put them at the iceplex instead (oh wait that's kind of far) Kind of makes me wish that they could convert investors group field into an indoor stadium so they can convert it into and ice rink. Oh wait, IGF may be cursed I wouldn't want to risk it on the jets either

Bad news: Bob McKenzie @TSNBobMcKenzie Pending UFA Michael Frolik hasn't been able to reach an agreement with WPG so he's in FLA today to meet with other interested clubs. #SoUnfair!
