  1. He was cut because he was due $60k right after free agency iirc maybe hardaway isn’t so dumb after all... his client has all the time in the world
  2. I don't understand how visiting two teams is being called a 'roadshow'...
  3. Really pretty amazing to think that Hardaway got Muamba... $50k for four games with Montreal - possibly an off-season bonus like he had with the Riders... so maybe $73k... then he would have had $100k+ guaranteed before training camp even begins... released before his bonus meant that he had another spring to try out for NFL Basically the Bombers can sign him for $190k this year because he'll still make $225k thanks to the Riders Hopefully Muamba's NFL dreams are officially dead - I think two years at $190k this year and maybe 220k next is a pretty fair deal
  4. Wow thanks for the super basic explanation of ticket sales
  5. Blah blah everyone will change their tune as soon as muamba signs i can’t believe we got him for only 200k...!!!
  6. An 18,000 seat arena and your average ticket prices probably drop by 25%... Flames and Canucks seats are avg $75, Winnipeg is $120 Arena is sold out every night at 18,000 if the extra 3,000 of those are nosebleed tickets at $60-80
  7. On what planet does the Winnipeg arena not sellout if its 17,500 seats... this is not a hockey market where you need to 'create demand'
  8. You can find all the names on the CFL Myspace
  9. We're paying Andrew Harris close to $200,000... he hasn't been released after one season... Top CDNs are getting paid $200k - Muamba is worth that for sure but not worth $250k...
  10. So can MBB get journalist accreditation for the combine... would be good to see first hand updates, etc And no, I am not suggesting that we pay anyone to go... I remember how that worked out the last time it came up...
  11. Yeah for some reason i remember traffic flow being a big issue.... for the downtown that no one goes to...
  12. Still a bit baffling why Winnipeg didn't build a bigger arena...
  13. Yeah, must have sucked to get a big rookie contract... then an NFL roster spot... then another payout with both Montreal and Sask... and get paid $35k to not play for Sask this year... Fire that agent now!!
  14. Enstrom still out... why do I feel like he'll be day-to-day for like six weeks... Really like Hendricks but I wonder if Tanev wouldn't be better in this lineup - that fourth line would apply a lot of pressure
  15. Goalie pads and equipment were like half the size they are today - you had to be a damn good goalie to be a 'butterfly' goaltender in that era, now basically everyone plays that style and just works the angles Cut down the pad size to 1980s measurements and we're back to 60-70 goal seasons in a heartbeat.
  16. Ah the days when goalies looked like humans and not like Robocop... some nice hacking and slashing in that vid too I'd have to say he'd still be up around 55 maybe 60 ... him and Housley just had natural chemistry - but yeah we won't see that record broken
  17. Kids are just lazy these days.
  18. I think it was just as hard if not harder back then... there was still a red line - remember how many passes from Housley to Selanne were called back?
  19. Jeff Hamilton@jeffkhamilton Connor Hellebuyck was doing work with goalie coach Wade Flaherty this am and that's why he wasn't at practice. 5m Its far worse than we ever feared...
  20. Friesen is always good for salacious tweets... seems pretty clear its just a day off
  21. 1st - Myers loses his guy... 2nd - bad line change, Myers and Kulikov give up the zone way too easy 3rd - Myers just misses his hip check and that starts the whole play... 4th - Chiarot is lost and tired 5th - completely on Helle 6th - Myers has two chances to clear and is soft on the puck
  22. Hope we play Hutch and give Helle a rest... I'd still rather see Poolman as our 3rd RHD as well
  23. Really thought the fourth line would see more ice time as a checking line - still under ten minutes
  24. Team needs Lowry and Trouba healthy for the playoffs... Thought the top lines were pretty decent actually - good game, but the team is just too loose after goals - that's on coaching I'm sorry Myers needs a rest - he's getting worse defensively as the season progresses, would be good to get him back to 3rd D pairing I'm not as down on Morrow/Chiarot - for 12 mins a game they are what they are... could have been worse In the end, we probably win if Maurice doesn't challenge that offside
  25. When did they start giving delay of game penalties for coach's challenges?
