Buttery mails!

Outshot 17-2 in the third period... Talbot kept his team in the game. Blaming him on that OT goal is pretty ridiculous, IMO. Morrissey beat him with a hell of a shot. He was only a bum when he played in Calgary.

I wasn't wondering. I reacted to the inaccuracy of what you said. Blaming him for that goal is pretty ignorant. A more accurate statement would've been to say "Dammit, Jets! Wake up!"

Then shouldn't they be before having an opinion on something? You can't be uninformed and have an opinion on something; that isn't rational. You're entitled to your opinion but not the consequences when said opinion is inconsistent with facts. I don't think calling out someone's uninformed/misinformed opinion as BS qualifies as bullying.

Jets took over in the third period and didn't really look back. Morrissey's OT winner was a beauty.

And of course Friesen finds a way to poo-poo on this current Jets' campaign: https://winnipegsun.com/sports/hockey/nhl/winnipeg-jets/reckoning-coming-for-jets So, he's whining that the team has had a handful of bad games (nay, periods) against some of the better competition in the league. And yet, the team's taken care of business otherwise, particularly against the bottom feeders. WTF

Undoubtedly. Kind of a **** move by Bowman, who basically threw him under the bus to take the heat off his actions. Anyway, nice win tonight. A great first period and it looked like a rout was in order. But then things got a bit shaky at times after some costly errors. Just gotta take the two points and move on to the next!

Can't say I see the sense in entertaining that trade. Obviously, it would have to depend on what Rutherford is asking but I still don't get it.

Not when it's based on nothing rational (and when there's a track record of similarly absurd comments). There's no need for that at all. And as @JCon pointed out, making accusations of the criminal variety is totally unacceptable. There is absolutely not a single shred of evidence to suggest anything of the sort.

It's comical when someone says "I hear blah, blah, blah..." and can't substantiate any of it. Yeah, I'm sure your friend's brother's barber's lawn mower repairman is a legitimate source. The WFC generated a profit in 2016. The WFC generated a profit in 2017. There's nothing to suggest 2018 will be different - beyond some crackpot conspiracy garbage, of course. It'd be nice to see the tinfoil trolls get the banhammer.

Hardly a shocking comment coming from the same poster who said this earlier in the thread: "J5V....some people can’t handle reality. That is the difference between objectivity- reality and the subjectivity of people who are simply fans." His forum handle seems spurious at best, but at least one thing is clear: he isn't Dr. English.

The ol' "I know people who know" line. Classic. LOL Just so you know, that is not a trump card and only makes you look foolish. You have no contacts or connections to an inside track with the club. You enjoy habitually dragging the WFC through the mud and making up stories while doing so - usually after a bad loss or whenever O'Shea appears on your TV. The reality is you know nothing more than anyone else on here, so your list of speculative assertions is essentially meaningless. The last thing you should do on a public forum is attempt to pull your hometown friends into the mud with you. And you're one of the last people who should lecture others on being objective. Spare us your tired BS, man.

Awesome matinee game! Made up for the snoozefest Friday night. Hellebuyck seems to have rediscovered his Vezina nominating form.

More BS. Show me where I made excuses for his play or claimed he didn't have a mediocre season. My comment regarding his injury was strictly to do with how that physical issue could've affected him mentally. Again: I suggest you actually read what others post. I won't claim to know at what percentage he was but his play was obviously affected by what happened in TC in early June, whether physical, mental, or both. That was evident for the majority of the season save perhaps the final home game vs. CGY. Physical ailments and mental struggles are not mutually exclusive, especially for players at a crucial position like QB.

Seriously, it's just pathetic to see the lengths to which some go here to peddle their BS. Even when proven incorrect, it's just more BS, deflection, and goalpost-moving. There should be warnings and/or temporary bans handed out for that annoying garbage. All it does is clutter up threads and take away from actual worthwhile discussion here. It was broadcast everywhere back in early June what happened to Nichols and a simple open source internet search shows just that. One would have to be seriously unintelligent, ignorant, or flat out delusional to ignore/forget it.

Maybe try Google sometime.

You're speculating based on pure assumption and an obvious emotional bias. "Streveler starting to pick up some steam" (No, he wasn't. He was downright bad in that week 3 loss to the Ti-Cats) "...him telling the medical staff that he's ready to go, when he probably truly wasn't." (You know nothing, so don't make claims you can't substantiate) "I'm guessing Nichols wanted those easy W's next to his name and rushed back." (What nonsense) "Streveler would have picked up wins in those games as well, and he knew it. Probably would have put up better numbers too!" (More rampant speculation based on nothing more than your dislike of a player) I know it's fun for you to dump on #15 to your heart's content and blame him and only him for that WSF loss, but if you're going to "make a point" while doing so, at least be rational and objective about it. The fact is you made no point and you trumped absolutely nothing. And I didn't theorize anything, either. Do you know what a theory even is? It's like you didn't even my post and just blurted out a bunch of triggered, immature gibberish. Go back and read what I actually posted. I'd also suggest consulting a dictionary before you attempt to deride others and misuse words you clearly don't understand (see the bolded words highlighted for you).

Yeah, a Twitter timeline is a clear indication of what happens behind closed doors. - Nobody Ever

I mean, he did get some pretty nice production out of a young Jennings in 2015 and 2016. He's a better OC than some give him credit for, IMO. That doesn't necessarily mean I think he'd fit with the current personnel on offense here, though.
