  1. The reason people are impressed with Sask is that they canned a loser and signed a proven winner. They cut fat and appear to be making big moves. We stay put, hired a proven loser and have not made any big changes.
  2. Until they show that they can recruit talent instead of mediocre scraps then I'm not sold.
  3. Throw in Stuart and we can get Stamkos!
  4. You guys are all funny... Maurice is going nowhere, the club is struggling because the young guys are underperforming (go figure).
  5. I agree with Goalie... Need to make something happen rather then sitting back and hoping for the other team to make a mistake.
  6. The sky is falling the sky is falling!! Yeesh people freaking out because we send Lowry down? He's young, he's struggling and he's playing on the 4th line. It makes perfect sense for me. No desperation , nothing to do with Frolik... Simply the right move to make. My guess is they bring up Cormier.
  7. I am fortunate and live on a school bus route so the roads are nice and clean for me. If anything service is better for myself... Now garbage pickup on the other hand..much worse.
  8. Cfl should give Montreal Reilly for compensation lol
  9. Come on now horrible?? http://cfl.stats.com/cfl/playerstats.asp?id=336211 His stats are way better then the crap we fielded in the last several years and he runs real hard. I'd have zero issues if they signed him.
  10. Wow these are awful refs ...late in the 2nd period it appears the refs have it in for the Jets. Enstrom gets cross checked illegally into our bench and they don't make the call??
  11. So many weak penalties on us...
  12. Stuart is a good guy, only on this site do I read anyone complaining about the guy and his role with his team.
  13. I'll take Harris over Chevon Walker...
  14. Cisco is having an event and sent an invite to a bunch of nerds to go Friday..
  15. Simply quoting what it said on many many sites, let me know when you publish your studies that contradict the stats of a legit publication like SI
  16. http://www.huffingtonpost.com/tyson-hartnett/why-athletes-go-broke-and_b_6812864.html ESPN had a documentary about it.... Also common sense... Hockey is an expensive sport to play and usually families in poverty cannot afford to put a kid through hockey. Boxing, basketball and football... these guys are coming straight from the ghetto from usually broken homes and very low income... they have zero knowledge of how to manage finances and of course so many of them go crazy and blow the money or get conned out of the money. Your example is flawed. It's states SI did a study of former NFL and NBA players. That's all it said. Not how many or for how long. Even then, the percentage is well below what you stated and is not broken down by any racial identifications.You're guessing. I'm not saying players don't go broke, just your statement of 90% of black athletes go broke. http://newamericamedia.org/2010/07/beyond-lebron----many-ex-ballers-broke.php Sorry the report said 80% of NFL athletes go broke within 5 years and black atheletes make up almost 70% of players in the NFL. I apologize for being slightly off resulting in your panties getting in a bunch.

  18. This happens to like 90% of black athletes. It's just odd because usually hockey parents are smart with money.
  19. If by some chance you are serious, what should the Regina team have to give Edmonton for taking their Head coach? They gave permission though. Do you think it would be fair if Steinhauer quit and signed to coach another team despite Hamilton saying no way. You can't just allow people to ignore valid contracts. Morally Ottawa should let the guy go..legally they shouldn't.
  20. Jets will trade Ladd and Buff for prospects and picks and then sign Stamkos and all will be great lol
  21. Allowing coaches to resign and sign with other teams opens a huge can of worms...if that's the case we should poach star players by doing the same thing.
  22. Lawless was talking about this earlier this morning. Made it seem like Ottawa has a huge upper hand purely based on the legal side of contracts. This could get ugly, I see Edmonton having no leg to stand on and most likely they will have to give up something. First round pick for two seasons seems fair to me.
  23. That is a solid hire if Mauro doesn't go off the deep end again.... Now they need Lenne Hardt to call down the wrestlers to the ring....
  24. I want to see funny and edgy stuff mixed in with great wrestling.
