sweep the leg

That was me. I'm really smart...

I'd love to see Belichick suspended for the Super Bowl. Apparently John Mara is pushing hard to make that happen.

Vermette is a pending UFA. Rumour is he's asking for $6M per on his next deal, which is why he'll almost certainly be dealt at the deadline.

You found outrage on twitter? This changes everything.

It'll take more than that to get him. There's going to be a lot of teams looking at him. Can score at a decent pace and is a very good defensive player. One of the best in the league at faceoffs.

I think they want both, which they'll get. They'll just be spread out over two winters rather than a few weeks.

He can be kind of lazy, but a trade to a legit NHL calibre team might wake him up. He's shown he can play pretty good hockey when there's talent around him.

We'll make a trade for another forward. I'd love to get Joel Ward. Pending UFA, but the Caps are currently in a playoff position so he likely won't be going anywhere. Stafford & Stewart would both be reasonable targets. Both big guys who would fit well on the third line. I don't think anybody important leaves our lineup. If we deal a top dman, it won't be until the summer. I think we try to deal Postma and some picks.

Uh.. I beg to differ on "most other people". Rabid snap-judgment making Winnipeg Sun comment section denizens don't constitute "most people". I have a lot of people I know who follow the jets and for every Hutchinson fan, there is 4 or 5 Pavlevec supporters. You don't think a majority of Jets fans think Hutchinson is our best goalie? I disagree, although I haven't run a poll of my friends to confirm this.

Fantastic news that he'll be back for the game in Winnipeg. I have tickets for that one.

BS penalty by a thin-skinned ref. Buff gives him a dirty look and the guy shits his pants. He knocked the puck away from the linesman when he was bent over to pick it up. The ref saw it and called the penalty.

Buff's penalty at the end of regulation was brutal. That's the kind of crap teenagers in house league pull.

I'd put both Petan and Morrissey in the minors next year, at least to start the season. We're in a position where we don't have to rush them into the lineup.

Nor would I. IMO he'll be a better value than the big names based on a $ / receiving yards basis.

Agreed. I don't think he'll put up 1300-1400 like he did in his prime, but I won't be shocked if he flirts with a 1k season.

I like the way they're using our goalies, mostly b/c it's been working for us. Pavelec has proven that he can't handle the starter's job as a full time gig, and Hutchinson hasn't really proven anything yet. There's no need to push the role on him yet.

Putting those numbers into context would help you sort it out. Pavelec has more starts b/c he began the season as the unquestioned starter. He's now lost that role and is getting fewer starts in a rotation where the other guy is on the opposite trajectory.

His 40 time is better than the db we just signed.

Kohlert is our best Canadian receiver. WIth the exception of the home opener, Watson did virtually nothing last season. He played 11 games and had over 30 yards receiving in three of them. I've stopped hoping he'll become what we thought he could be. I'll be pleasantly surprised if we get any production out of him this year.

They all cheat -- so in that respect, "cheating" isn't really cheating, it's keeping up! That's the sad fact but Lewis was looked on in America as a superstar & a hero. It's really too bad he was never caught. He was never caught but he did confess not too long ago that he was using steroids back then. He actually was caught several times earlier but they swept it under the rug. Watch the 30 for 30, its very good. 30 for 30 was very good. Something like all but one of the runners in that race eventually got busted.

Play Hutchinson in Chicago b/c he's been lights out there in two games already. They'll be splitting games anyways, so go with the hot hand.

I'm not sure that Groulx would drop that far, but I agree that there should still be a good OL available at 11 if we took Waud first.

I'd still take Jokinen over Halischuk or Peluso... Meh. At least Peluso can fight. Jokinen is pretty much done doing anything at an NHL level.

You can come to my house and watch it on pvr. Can I come? I have hot dogs. You're in.
