Kate is awful, actually antagonizes her own panel for some odd reason. She thinks she is the star of the panel and gets upset at them if she perceives they are upstaging her. Just weird really.

Never....although Vince McMahon may have different plans for ya.

Gotta give St. Loo some credit. They are playing us as hard as they can until we inevitable run them out of gas. It's kind of our game plan to wear teams down with our exceptional depth. It's how we are built. Roll 4 lines and just wear teams down until the wheels fall off.

If Laine ever learned to move his feet, and play with the edge that his size suggests he can, he would be elite. I don't know how to qualify him as anything other than a lazy player with extreme amounts of skill. Skill never trumps effort anymore, this isn't the 80's. It's too bad that this hasn't dawned on him yet, and looks likely that it never will. I doubt he ever doesn't have a place in the NHL somewhere, but his salary and his role is going to diminish a lot.

My only real point of concern this year is OL, really. Everything else I feel ranges from good to really good. Roster usage is going to be what it is, but I trust that we have the horses. Home GC so we will either be winning and roster usage becomes a non issue, or it costs us a game or two and the heat gets turned up on it. It's GC or bust this year, gotta be.

Zach Shnitzer has a podcast? What's a podcast? JK....really like his work on there and I still hold a grudge against Bauming for screwing Harris out of MOP. I will begrudgingly admit that he and Zach are very enjoyable to watch talking Bombers. I see Booch knows how to send comments to them on it, I don't so he must be a babyface too.

Probably the least of my concerns is the secondary, I think we will be really strong there again. I don't see Griffen as a prototypical CFL safety though. I will freely admit I don't know enough about his abilities to qualify my opinion as anything more than a hunch though. I, too like what he might bring closer to the LOS though.

Hey, us guys over 50 have at least 5 numbers in our SIN. I agree. I watched a bunch of Lapo's youtube work last year and it was top notch. Some of the best actual football analysis I've seen. Gotta hand it to YT as well, one of the oldest platforms out there and they remain relevant even to teens.

Tik Tok is so 2022.....us old guys trying to keep up with our teenagers just learn an app like Tik Tok to find out they've all moved on from that now.

One does not have to be particularly woke to think that making unwanted sexual advances on an employee, then holding her employment over her head when she rebuts your advances is pretty cringe. The fact we let him keep playing in our league is also cringy. I'm GenX and this disturbs me and we GenXers have seen a lot of this in the past.

Not suggesting you were concerned, just stating that your observations are our plan.

This is playoff hockey. The ice gets small, the forechecking and physicality ramps up. St. Louis plays that type of style so I never expected anything different. Our ability to roll 4 effective lines has worn them down in the last two games, and that is precisely how our team was built to win in the playoffs. I really see no cause for concern whatsoever. Next round we will either play Dallas, who plays a similar style, or Colorado that plays far more wide open. If it's Dallas just keep on keeping on, and if it's Colorado we will need to sharpen our pencils a bit. They are playing at a higher pace because they are allowing each other to do so.

It's the President's trophy, Trump should come to Canada and personally hand it to a Canadian team. Love to see what would happen. (I do know it is not a trophy named for the President of the US)

I hope it's not the end for Apples, but he will have to play at a contract similar or slightly less than the one he is getting now. I would imagine someone else will pay him more.

You gotta think that BO is going to get 20+ touches a game. Doesn`t leave much for anyone else in the backfield. I want to see more out of our backfield but we got to spread the rock around with the passing game too. Buck happened. Say what you want about Lapo but he was way more creative than Buck with formations, motion, and progressions. Buck was far more of a risk taker, and that worked for a time but his overall playbook was more vanilla than Lapos....and that`s saying something.
