  1. Hurl has better numbers than Bass this year... just saying...
  2. At this point, IMO, it is a matter of "when" Trouba leaves, not "if". I don't believe the reasons given for his trade request... play time/playing on his off-side. I just don't think he wants to be here and at some point he will be gone. Unfortunately.
  3. The problem is.... if Little leaves after this year, who is the second line center? It's nice to think maybe Roslovic can do it but we've barely seen him play in the NHL, let alone in a top-six role. Maybe Petan/Copp/Lowry? Any of those 3 would be a stretch. And its tough for any team to attract a top-six center in free agency, even moreso for Winnipeg. So what do you do?
  4. I just try to offend as many people as possible and see who wants to dance
  5. The Comprehensive Guide to CFL Football by @The Unknown Poster but then you open it up and it's just wrestling stories
  6. Rather have Mason than Bishop to be honest. Bishop had 3 good seasons behind a very good Tampa Bay team but to me, he is nothing more than average.
  7. Are we not the best team in the league at converting redzone attempts into touchdowns?
  8. Yeah but now your head's so messed up you can barely put together a coherent sentence. Pros and cons.
  9. One short playoff run and Oiler fans start waving their dicks around like Rider fans. Incredible.
  10. He was averaging .5 points per game last season before getting injured. Fine numbers for a guy who isn't necessarily an "offensive" defenceman. He's got a cannon from the point and he plays an aggressive big-man style game. I expect his numbers will increase this year as well. There's nothing to be worried about. He will be an NHL defenceman. Probably not a top-pairing guy any time soon but he'll be a 3rd-pairing guy for the Jets within 2 years and top-4 within 5 years. Just has to keep working on his footwork. And that will come in time. Being 6'8" at 18 years old isn't easy. The usual criticism comes from non-athlete stats guys and older guys who had a taste of junior hockey who now think they're experts but I don't take that very seriously.
  11. Not sure where all the Stanley hate comes from, if its from the stats crowd or what? When I watch him play he is a dominant defenceman. He might spend some time with the Moose next year but he'll be on the Jets very soon. ECHL? Lol! He won't play a single game in the ECHL.

  13. If Lapolice isn't the best OC in the league right now, he is at least top 2. He is far and away the best OC we've had since Lapolice.
  14. If there is one player who has been immune to criticism on this board, it's Ryan Lankford.
  15. Yeah our players are so good, if only they didn't have to deal with our stupid coaches they would be 11-0. God damn coaches doing everything wrong.
  16. in as far as we can see, the offence ("football"(, with no explanantion forthcoming, will be until there is a new excitement. Winnipeg, this weekend, for the Banjo Bowl. My new though, for experiment, would see this as a defence for bigger gains. Extraneous production notwithstanding. Green, blue, and so on. for now we can see, with injuries, without, and so forth .
  17. Orientated is a word
  18. 8-10 out of the playoffs and MOS gets fired
  19. Even if you were only ten years old this would still be true, it has no effect on your age.
  20. That's great news. Ahead of schedule according to what people were saying when he signed.
  21. Looks to me like Foketi and Johnson will sit
  22. He is hated by many message board users but not so sure that is true of the cfl fanbase in general.
