Ducky

Brooks Laich had an assist on Michael Nylander's final goal on Apr 5/09 and his son William's first NHL goal the other night...

A better PK, better goaltending and another year of experience for the youngsters will help us win more games but I fully expect to se at least 2 and as many as 4 rookies on the team next year. Connor, Petan, Morrissey, Lemieux and depending where we draft, all five have a legitimate shot at getting a spot next year. Lipon will be getting a hard look as will Comrie. Think of how young we could be next year with Connor, Morrissey, Dano, Lemieux, Trouba, Chiarot, Scheifele, Ehlers, Lowry, Armia, Burmistrov, Copp, Hellebuyck and Petan all under 25. That's 14 players or 70% of the lineup! If two of those players aren't on the team, that is still 60% of the team under 25!

Next to Gretzky, for a couple of years, he was the best player in the NHL.

I wonder which D men Maurice plays against McDavid? Too bad Trouba is hurt, I'd like to see him in big minute games like 26 or so a game. I think it would improve his overall game.

3 right hand shots.....just sayin

Hawerchuk is my favorite Jet but I saw him play lots before his hip? went..... Too much cake for me....like I said, I can fly to Puerto Vallarta for 496.00 and catch neat looking fish. It'd be nice to go but I'll be watching it elsewhere.

awwwwwwwwww, didn't know you caaaaaaaaared........ I was just rearranging Floyd's roster. I have no illusions about Matthews and think we will pick around 4th or so.

I used to love the playoff battles we had with the Flames....it took a looooong time for my hate of the Flames to simmer down.

I bought good seats for McCartney for a fraction of that cost.

700.00 bucks for two tickets is beyond my pay grade....could buy a big screen and watch it at home...I can fly return to Puerto Vallarta for 496.00.

I would guess the NHL gets a big chunk of concessions and that stuff. If 350.00 is the starting point for tickets, I'll probably go to BP or somewhere and watch it.

I heard the same thing on the radio....Bombers get a 7 figure value for 10-14 days and that is it...

Jim Kyte starting D man? Bombers will get over 7 figures for letting the NHL have the stadium for the time they need it. 10 days?

How much you think tickets will be?

Ehlers-Scheif-Wheeler Connor-Matthews-Armia Staf-Little-Dano Lemieux-Lowry-Copp Looks so much better...

More like his first 25-30 but who's counting? I like Trouba and don't want to see him leave but I am torn between long term and a bridge. Take a look at Trouba's numbers with Stuart, not impressive to say the least and I know exactly how much an anchor he is....why do you think Trouba's numbers nosedive when he is paired with him..... Both Buff's and Trouba's numbers go up when paired with each other. You're right about different eras but no comparison between the two yet.....didn't Hawerchuk get over 100 points his rookie year and hold the record until Selanne beat it? Hawerchuk wasn't only dominant, he pulled the whole team with him.

Scheif is my favorite Jet but let's not get carried away now. I'd be happy if Scheifele turned out as good as Hawerchuk in his rookie year.

Much easier to wrap up a trade with Myers for Hamonic.

Numminen, Olcyck (if he can make it), Domi?

...and you must be talking about his stats paired with Buff and not including his time with Stuart.

Compared to whom? Enstrom and Buff's fancy stats are better than Trouba's.

Mullen, Babych, Ellet, McBain?

Then he looks horrible for a few and then he plays well for a few games and then plays poorly...rinse lather repeat...

I wouldn't have any worries with Scheif but Trouba I'm not as sure about. I do think he will be a very good D man for years to come. Jury is out with me whether he will be a 1D man or 2D man. If he turns into a franchise D man, I'd be one happy camper. He's really good with Buff.

Someone should ask him about the disappearance of Drew Stafford...
