  1. Pens trade first round pick to Vegas to get them not to take Murray, Jets trade first round pick to Pens for Fleury, post-expansion draft. Everybody wins. Except Fleury would never waive his NMC to come to Winnipeg so it's all pretty irrelevant.
  2. Did he? Looked a little nervous with the puck early on but seemed to settle in OK. What did you see?
  3. hmm I'm not so sure that's true. Sounds nice, but not sure it's true. Some of the best defensive forwards in the league don't do it with size but with relentless pursuit and smart play. Toews, Bergeron, etc.
  4. Actually a pretty solid looking staff they are putting together in T.O.
  5. Buff will be near 30, Morrissey will likely play the highest minutes of his career. Melchiori has earned some trust playing with Buff and Strait surprisingly acquitted himself quite well with Morrissey. Buff (30), Morrissey (25), Melchiori (24), Strait (20), Stuart (12), Nogier (9). Might see something along those lines.
  6. You either have Canadian starters or no Canadians at all. If you have no mandated starters you have 21 Canadian backup/special teams players and Americans going directly from the PR to starting rather than the Canadian backups becoming starters. Makes no sense.
  7. They won't hit ten minutes
  8. What exactly are you looking for? What has he done, or failed to do, that bothers you? Worth mentioning that no one expects fans to "follow" the commissioner.
  9. Is this a "Who can say Russia more" competition? What an odd tweet.
  10. Might need to set our sights a little lower than that.
  11. NFL combine let in spectators for the first time ever this year.
  12. I don't mind Chiarot. He's a fine 3rd-pairing defenceman, IMO. Nogier still has lots of potential but to throw him into the fire right now while he's still a rookie.... could be some rough moments and I'd hate for that to follow him into his sophomore year. He's a good player but now isn't the right time. I hope they don't have to use him.
  13. I think this is an absolutely great thing for the CFL. We're getting CFL articles written in March, there will be some coverage on SportsCentre I'm sure. More attention to the league is always a good thing. The Combine is finally being presented as a "big deal". Good stuff all around. And as much as I hate to say it, Regina is the right spot for this because the interest will be there from the local fans.
  14. Great line!
  15. Not so much. I don't expect anything resembling quality from this game. Better not to be attached to it. Hopefully the right opportunity for a CFL video game comes along but this wasn't it.
  16. He's a raving lunatic, the Don Cherry of wrestling
  17. Proud to say I've been selected to serve as the representative for the Internet
  18. They got a bunch of safeties over there. I'm not sure this will have much of an effect. It's too bad Graig got so badly hurt in his first season here. He was set up to have a huge opportunity. Who knows what might have happened?
  19. At least they are trying to build their OL. Always a good place to start.
  20. Stopped being funny after year 4 or 5. Now it's just lame and sad. They aren't even nerds anymore, they're just lame married guys.
  21. Not an uncommon occurrence this season.
  22. I never boo the home team. Never, ever. I'll buy tickets if they go 0-82. That's my team dammit.
  23. @mbrg got TOLD!!! BURN!!!!!!!!!!
  24. Little, Perreault and Ehlers can be a shutdown line, I believe. Little and Perreault are both responsible defensively and Ehlers is coming along. He had a wonderful backcheck at one point last night.
