  1. Unlikely that Mack will spend the money he's likely to command. I honestly trust Mack to fine defensive ends anyway. I'd suspect that Taman ponies up the dough and gets the guy signed, there's a need there I think and it fits Tamans MO to spend on guys like that.
  2. Maximum currently set at 3. If it becomes too messy, we can lower it to 1 or 2. i'd rather you up'd it. I dunno, 3 seems like a good number.
  3. SACRILEGE! How can people honestly say this? Cherry is nothing if not the most entertaining man in the hockey world. You haven't lived until you've drank along with the Don Cherry Piano Desk.
  4. *insert girlish squeal*
  5. I heard some idiots stole his coffee and muffins.... but yes it was a good show, for some reason a song like big league really was popular at a CHL event... no idea why...
  6. Sorry Bluto but I'm really not a doer, I'm more of a sit back and tell people they're doing it wrong kind of person.
  7. The more I look around the more I like this place. OB.com had gotten so stale and almost tedious, hopefully this place can liven things up a bit. Of course training camps opening up always helps that I guess, still good job guys.
  8. Have never, will never understand the hate for Claude Noel. What he gets out of this sad-sack roster is almost unbelievable. The Jets have little to no talent and have massively over-achieved for 1.5 seasons now. IMO, Noel should be up for Coach Of The Year. Torts and Vaigneault would be massive downgrades. Now, if Quenville becomes available, that's another story.... What about Dave Tippett? If you want to watch soul destroying boring assed hockey sure. Good coach for sure, but his teams are about as exciting as watching paint dry. The Jets have a good coach in Noel I think, fans just expect way too much out of a pretty crappy roster. It's going to be ugly seeing them play tougher western teams next year though. That cream puff SE division I think has fooled a lot of winnipeg fans into thinking the Jets are a better team than they actually are.
  9. I like the Pens but not because I live in Calgary & Iginla plays for them... Never been a true fan of the guy. When he was playing for the Flames all those years he missed the playoffs more than he made them. Never wanted to play in the World Championships. Rather be on the golf course in BC in April than representing his country. I always thought the way he turned his back on Team Canada was indicative of the kind of leader he was here in Calgary. Never hungry enough to inspire his teammates as Flames Captain. Always making excuses. It was a shame Iginla shunned the worlds and team canada, but I think as far as a leader goes he was fantastic for the flames. Got a lot more out of those crappy, crappy rosters than they rightly should have.
  10. Let's be honest, the entire season comes down to how the qbs do so there's going to be a magnifying glass on them all training camp, going to be a hell of a good time watching and seeing if they can step up and make the most of their opportunities.
  11. what's the point of having foes? If you block all the morons who can you possibly argue with?
  12. One of the highlights of training camp for those of us who don't live in Winnipeg is reading everyones reports. Don't let me down.
