Even Ehlers sucked? Seriously?

The magic of the Melch couldn't over-come the suck of the Stew. Too bad.

watched the first period - Poolman playing well and Connor with the blazing speed, looks a lot like Ehlers out there. Caggiula with the nice goal, looks like he's a free agent. Worth a free agent signing?

I wonder how many times Bud Grant cried during an interview? That being said if Grant were interviewed by Wiechek he would probably break down in tears at how far the quality of journalism has fallen in Winnipeg since his era. "I knew Vince Leah. Vince Leah didn't wear earrings!!"

Stuart is just brutal. Standing around on all three goals. Eichel beat him like a rented mule.

Yeah I would like to see what Don Matthews would have done with Brian Brohm.

I agree. The old ways are the best ways. That's why I type out every post on my IBM Selectric and have my secretary post it on the website.

I hope the game against NDSU tomorrow is on TSN 2 so I can watch it. Poolman vs Connor - epic battle!!

Poolman looked good in the game against Northeastern. Scored a goal too. Too bad I can't get the Michigan game so I can see Connor.

two years ago. That was before he found the bottle on the beach with the genie in it, who guaranteed that he would never lose another game if he was ever brought back up to the big leagues. Or he might have made the same deal as Johnny Wayne did...

Melch - undefeated!!! Go Melch go!

oh behave...

Who cares, the Mexicans are paying for it right? At least Vicente Fox seems to be on board with this plan...

as well, pretty much every election campaign ever has demonstrated, polls taken this far from the actual election date are completely meaningless. Look at our own election. If the polls before the election were any indication of what was going to happen, we'd be talking about Prime Minister Mulcair right now. Instead, by the end of the battle, the NDP was down big time, and his party's polling around 10-15% right now. The Liberals stepped in and stole a big chunk of their voters, purely out of the desire to get rid of Harper. Trudeau started the election at a distant third. I want to see Trump and Hillary on the same stage. That will be an epic battle. Evil vs more Evil.

Is that all? Hell that's not even the size of one year of Trudeau deficit. Perhaps Justin should be a consultant on this project.

not sure when you know if someone is "ready" or not. Watching the Jets "Young Stars" games in Penticton last September I'd have said that none of them were ready, as they all played awful. But here we have Ehlers, Kosmachuk, Petan, De Leo, Morrissey and Hellebuyck all playing up this year and contributing. Petan actually looked pretty good last night, but of course, he was playing against Vancouver's farm team, and an extremely lethargic-looking Sedin twin combo. Anyway, given I've never seen Poolman play I am in no position to judge his readiness. Perhaps he will surprise in TC, though I know if he's an RHD he's already going to be cursed as we apparently need LHD only.

yup - any one of those three and I'll be extremely happy.

Poolman (love that name) plays for North Dakota. They play Northeastern first, while Connor and Michigan take on Notre Dame. It will be interesting to see if Michigan can win it all. It would be great if Poolman can find a spot on the roster, he's another big kid. Myers, Melch and Poolman - now there's some size on the blue line. No more smurfs on D.

Sure liked seeing Melch out there with Myers. The Twin Towers! Awesome!

They should have sent the Canucks home early and just had the Jets play the Winnipeg Blues. At least they would have tried. Were the Sedins even playing? I don't know if I saw them even register a shot. Just brutal effort. The creaking you heard was the last few Canucks fans jumping off of the bandwagon.

I doubt it too. I also never thought that Buffalo would trade Stafford, Myers, Lemieux, Armia and a first rounder for Kane and Bogosian. Weird things happen sometimes.

I've seen at least one poster say that Tkachuk is no good and that he is over-rated. Several times. Anyway, I do get that we have more pressing issues elsewhere. My desire to see Tkachuk drafted isn't just about him being a great player (and he is) it's about having another Tkachuk playing for us. Nostalgia.

Best of luck to both gentlemen, and thank you for all of the great memories.
