First the Bombers and their terrible loss, tonight the Jets were woeful and I'm in a bad mood, my Yanks are on the ropes and the Cowboys play the Packers what an absolutely terrible weekend.
Seem to be the common thread all this years, 7 years and this team is still terrible sure they have spurts that makes us feel better but by the end of this month the season could be lost.
Stay with Mason either he plays lights out or gets pulled again, then after he is crushed we throw he on the scrap heap and do the same to Helle and after Helle Cormie is the next victim and then Berdin, all jokes aside the defense in our zone is comical and I mean all 5 guys nobody seems to know what they are supposed to do or what part of the ice they should be covering, get that straighten out and even with average goaltending we should win our fair share of games. That's it for me tonight Yankees, Centre Ice and Football on tap.
I don't think anyone would have expected that outcome last night, our new goalie was what he has been in the past below average, our defense runs around leaving guys open all over the place, where was our captain last night and Laine needs to stop telegraphing his wrist shots, he had at least 3 where the defender got his stick into the path ............oh well on to Saturday's game with Calgary who didn't look that great against Edmonton but Smith did. As a footnote that second goal by McDavid last night was a holy crap moment for me last night.
As Chevy said during the first intermission its a learning process, you know what the Jets players learned tonight they are not a very good hockey team but it is 1 game of 82 things can't get any worse........................can they?
We can lose just the same with Poolman on d and Connor, Petan , and Roslovic up front, really its the first game of the year, we don't play well to start the season for some reason, but its losing to the Leafs that has me bummed atm.
Some think an 80 mil salary cap is right around the corner, need a lot more revenue for that and the only way that will happen is if they move the teams that draw flies. Can't have team papering their building or having deeply discounted tickets.
What he is getting at is that wingers don't get paid like centre's do in the NHL because the Oilers over paid for Draisaitl who is a centre but will probably be playing wing with Mc David this season.
