The only possible question you could have about Henoc is what kind of CFL "game shape" he's in since he's come back from the NFL. He definitely hasn't looked as consistently good since he came back, but what he did before he went down was extraordinary for sure.

Sounds like one of Grandpa June's 100 year old buddies is going to run the D but Steinauer will provide some assistance in terms of CFL experience...

Interesting article from Drew @ 3 Down Nation.... Lots of speculation. His kids wanted to be home and it sounds like he was offered a plum deal. Interesting to note that he's not the DC.... Just Assistant Head Coach.

Not sure if he's caught on with a new team yet, but Denmark just tweeted: Clarence Denmark ✔@OnAnotherOne To all the bomber fans I hope I brought you joy and entertainment at some point throughout my time. Thank you all for your support. #Denny

Not sure what the Oilers have to give up other than Klefbom...

they're saying it's going to take 6 pieces to get Karlsson in return or else you have to take on Bobby Ryan's contract....

Not sure if crazy, made-up fan stuff or what, but heard today that maybe the Jets are in on Karlsson for a package including Trouba, Hutchinson and Copp........gotta think it's going to take a LOT more than that to get it done...

ha!

I honestly feel that Walters/MOS believe they're happy with their current crop of LBs and will be more than happy running with them, if Henoc prices himself out of our plans. They'll never get into a bidding war for the guy.

Reed was MACK for them but will be WIL in Toronto with Woods at MACK I believe...

Who does Ottawa currently have at MACK? Hebert is playing Safety right?

On the curling topic, I'm honestly most excited about Kerri Einarson's new team for next year, with Val Sweeting at 3rd, Shannon Birchard at 2nd and Breanne Meilleur at lead. All are skips so I'm not sure how sweeping is gonna go, but on paper that's the best team on tour next year, possibly....

She coulda played in jeans and street shoes and made playoffs with 3 others found in the Patch....

Except for that time they did here.......

BC very interested in him to play WIL next to SE, and he is always interested in playing with Cauchy...

*Couldn't...

the fact that anyone cares is ridiculous....he can do whatever the hell he wants during the anthem. If the guy can play football, it doesn't matter one iota what he does during the anthem...

I just keep hearing "Ho-Merrrr" in my head....so funny...God, I hope he turns out to be awesome.

and whatever he decided he wanted to do, I'd sure support his right to choose....'cause it's Canada, and most of us are cool like that...

It already does...no need to make it worse...

They make me laugh, because analytics nerds are just that... Nerds.... Desperately wanted to be cool sports guys, but sucked at sports, so here's their way to contribute.... Analytics are all fine and good as something to talk about but it's not as important as some want to make it out to be. It's just one extra tool... Set of information... To use in among everything else that already exists.

I will never ever understand the idea that Shane Hindy was a good colour analyst. The list of good analysts begins and ends with Ray Ferraro. Everyone else is shades of "I understand the game, but I no communicate so good..."

Two semi interesting league notes today... -ESPN apparently is really pushing the CFL to move the schedule up even further into spring, I assume so it overlaps less with their primary concern, the NFL. -The league will be announcing 10 neg list names for each team later today. Why this is of any concern, I have no idea, but they seem to think it's a big deal....

It isn't so much about what we'll go after as WHEN we'll go after them. Gonna take an OL but will it be R1 or R2? And these rankings are always bunkum until we know who's going to the States and will never see the CFL...

I love the kid... Have known him his whole life...... But he's never played a second of organized hockey. Great writer, but I am not a fan of people who've never played the game, at any level, telling me what's up...
