So basically O'Day wants a yes man for the HC position. Cool. That will turn out well. I smell another 3 year extension coming.

To me he's a poser. Get someone in there that will get their hands dirty and do the work.

Or another way of putting it: You must be new here, let me show you around.

Welcome to being a lifelong Winnipeg Jet Fan.

The bigger issue here is it exemplifies once again the current climate we find ourselves in. Back in the day this kind of behaviour was quickly, immediately and swiftly condoned and put back under the rock where it belonged. Nowadays, posturing and blithering absurdness is a strategy to get likes and grift money off/build a coalition of people who share similar approaches of what presenting other viewpoints looks like.

We've been shutout 5 of the last 6 periods of hockey. Time to turn the tap on full and chase Skinner from the crease please and thank you.

Like I said CD was the least of their worries. And I'm not even defending CD. He did and said many head scratching things but this goes beyond a head coach matter.

Not possible cuz O'Day must have pictures on someone to have received an extension for failing miserably, but the Riders needed to kick O'Day to the curb, demolish the whole system and build new. Craig Dickenson was the least of their worries. Yuk.

When I read your posts, I'm getting a more fulsome understanding of where your threshold is when it comes to actions/words come with consequences.

Would prefer he stay in the Broadcast booth, I really like him there but if he is considered just based on my observations on Lapo over the years please: Call plays to win not call plays to not lose. Be more open to adjusting when needed based on other people's feedback. In fact, just be more open to feedback. You don't have all the answers. Have a team of trusted advisors that can help you with your blind spots. We all have them, recognize that.

Following my normal pattern on the football threads, I’ll keep true to my well researched analysis of any non Jet non Blue Bomber teams and remind everyone, regardless of the w/l records and where they maybe trending, Oilers suck and will always suck. Fact.

Must win simply because a hardcore Jet fan living in Oiler land said so and doesn't want to come into the office the next day and face a barrage of shots if we are unsuccessful.

Je ne sais pas as the French would say.

For what it's worth and it's worth could be in question considering the track record of this organization. Excerpt taken from a story from Matt Carlson Hockey News: 'Davidson confirmed law enforcement was not involved and Perry's actions were not criminal. Yet the NHL's youngest GM choked up and seemed to be fighting back tears. Davidson did say, however, that whatever Perry did "certainly didn't mesh with the background we received. "To be honest, I think over the last 24 hours, what’s gone on has been very disturbing and I feel like I’m wearing it," he added. "I’m carrying that. It’s just tough to see." Refutes Rumors But in a rebuke to unfounded rumors on social media, Davidson was clear. "This does not involve any players or their families," he said. "And anything that suggests otherwise, or anyone that suggests otherwise, is wildly inaccurate and frankly it’s disgusting."

Good time as any for our PK % to start trending upwards please and thank you.

Can we put a bullet in this thread and end it. Als suck, Argos suck, Riders suck and for good measure BC sucks.

Personally, I wouldn't find that interesting at all. I'd probably use another word to describe that feeling.

Ehlers has his jump back. Lowry playing like a C needs to. Helle a brick wall. Amazing what confidence does. Nice problem we have with Vilardi coming back.

Now let's hope the Jets rally around this as even more of a motivator to do good.

Yup cuz opposing D's don't respect that from him at all which allows them to do different things with less difficulty. At least get to the point where they have to respect that from him so they can't load up in other areas as much.

Yup, mixed emotions for sure. I was explaining to my wife last night in how the CFL can't compete with the NFL practice roster.

I hope BO proves everyone wrong, makes the NFL and not just as a 3rd stringer on the PR against all odds. Just like rooting for the guy. He's earned it. He'll obviously always have a home here if things take a different route.

And nothing wrong with being a CFL lifer. Some have carved out nice careers over the years. The it happens for BO, he could see his name put up in the rafters.

If correct hard for coaches to trust him when he's on the field.
