  1. I took the gaze between Sansa and little finger as him saying "see you'll never be anything more then the bastards little sister". And her contemplating what he had told her, what he had offered her.
  2. Can't let Bruins take him. Sure it will suck but speaks more to the idiocy of the Bruins.
  3. Actually here's a loophole from that article: The good news for the Bruins: for offer sheet purposes, AAV is determined by dividing the total compensation offered by the lesser of the length of the contract, or by five. For contracts longer than five years in term, this will result in a higher AAV than simply dividing the contract total by the number of years. Example: a 7 year offer sheet worth $49 million total, would be considered an AAV of $9.8 million ($49 million divided by 5) for offer sheet compensation purposes. That means the Bruins could make an offer sheet to Trouba in the $7-8 million per season neighborhood on a seven year deal, a reasonable contract if Trouba turns into the No. 1 defenseman that the B’s are envisioning. interesting no one assumes the Jets would match. Which they would. So a 6 year deal at $7m per year, jets match. Although taking four first round picks isn't terrible knowing the Bruins lol. But they have a better chance of landing Trouba through trade. Jets will match.
  4. Bruins don't have a 2nd and 3rd pick next year so the only offer they can make is for more than $9.2m per years if they offer that jets will match and Boston will be the scourge of the NHL.
  5. RAW ratings were back down after a strong rise last week's. I hope wwe realizes soon that the occasional bump from something interesting (Ambrose) isn't enough to stave off the overall decline the entire format and booking is boring.
  6. The one story I don't want is Sansa and Jon coming to blows. Maybe it's more dramatic but seems forced to me.
  7. 1. Pass a piss test 2. Give me 50 deep squats, 50 push ups and 50 back bumps if successful on both counts, sign him up.
  8. recovering from minor knee surgery
  9. If Jets are considering $6m for Okposo, I'd definitely consider a trade for Hall. I hate to take away from our D though.
  10. I'd just as soon re-up Trouba for 6-8 years. But Fowler is a great option if thats not looking good. Heard some silly rumors of Boston considering offer sheeting Trouba. Go for it. Chevy will match.
  11. GoT set their ratings record with 8.89 million viewers for the finale. I had heard that last week's episode did something like 22m when replays, DVR's etc were factored in. Incredible numbers.
  12. I think it was obvious the "arrogance" stuff was Laine having fun with the hype and maybe playing to the media overseas. He's said all the right things since being here including dodging the stupid question asked at the draft about whether Toronto picked the wrong guy. I have zero concerns about Laine's attitude. I dont know what prompted him to immediately come to Winnipeg, but the fact he showed up at the golf tourney would strike me as a the right type of guy for this community. Plus, good to see Laine and Scheif spending time together. I look forward to Scheif eventually 100 points feeding Laine's 50 goals.
  13. Lawless said the head scout said going in that should the jets come out with Laine and Stanley then it was a great draft for them. So they very much wanted him. Time will tell but based on their desire I'll embrace the decision. They got the guy they wanted.
  14. If I understand correctly king Robert loved liana and blamed the mad King for her death prompting the uprising and ofcourse getting the Starks involved. Liana knew Robert would kill Jon if he knew the truth so Ned had to hide Jon in plain sight by claiming he was his bastard child. The saga title A Song of Fire & Ice would seem to be named for the siblings Jon and Dany, he of the north and she the mother of dragons. I suspect her dragons will be the difference against the white walkers and Jon will align with her, ruling together or marrying or supporting her position as Queen
  15. I'll trust the experts. But from a distance he seems like a potential reclamation project. Coyotes said a lot of positives things about him previously. He had tons of hype coming in so did he just lose all his talent? Perhaps needs a change of scenery and new voices guiding him. Cheap. Young. Huge. And left. Worth a look.
  16. If I'm the jets I take a long look at Tinordi. Ofcourse he has to have overcome his issues that got him suspended but if he has he might be worth it. Should come cheap. Is young and will get playing tom here.
  17. Lawless explaining that jets scouts were super high on Logan. So they really really wanted him. I'll trust them and assume he has a shot a being something one day
  18. Interestingly Jarred Tinordi was not qualified. Left shooting d. 24 years old. 6'6.
  19. The whole old/young demo is sort of a red herring isn't it? This is hockey not a soap opera. There are fans across all demos and if you present a quality program it will draw from all demos sure young people want cool and quick. And I see where strombo was supposed to bring that. But it's also a relevant point about how people watch hockey. Traditional mediums like television might not attract the millennials. I don't know. It's fair to say ratings were way down so it's not like there isn't room to improve
  20. Weird about Brassard. Must be number of contracts. Jets have mentioned that before as something they manage closely for maximum flexibility.
  21. Bran being marked will let them in. I guess....
  22. I would say so. Good for Scheif's camp as they will use it as a low comparable. And add in the things that make Scheif more valuable- centre for example as you said. Maybe 8 years $50-ish?
  23. I'd say it's either a really empty death or a really honourable one. Either his sister has him killed as her final mad act or he kills her to save the realm only to be struck down. I feel like we'll get Jamie vs The Mountain eventually.
