  1. Well you shoudn't be too disparaged as a Jet fan......we have all kinds of cap room.....one star counting the days till he joins the Habs and another wanting a trade out of town.....and the rumoured news that Atlanta is getting another nhl club .....geez ...could it be the return of the Thrashers et al Jets
  2. My gawd you can't even crack a joke about Quebec without having somebody getting their shorts in a knot....Cripes if that little suggestion about renaming a team ...said in a jokingly kind of way is offensive....whoah....My brother-in-law is from Trois Reviere and he would've laughed at that suggestion...Too bad he wasn't still with us today ....he'd probably say ....lighten-up ....
  3. Long as he doesn't insist that the team be renamed the Montreal Quebecois
  4. So true......nonetheless...a well travelled vet. should help....Not a long term solution ....I hope we're not done.....yet
  5. Yes.....I want to feel like we're a beaten down club forever....AND we'll never be a Cup winner .... cuz we're such a 'never want to be a destination' club ...and we are just plain no good as a place to be with no future....Bring out the whip now cuz I need a few lashes....We are definitely a bugger for punishment....and deserve nothing......................... (just some of the feeling I get from some of the exhilarating comments about us)
  6. Dumped the Duke and took a flyer on a Walker.....sounds like riders .....team of destiny for sure......destiny dumpster.....I wonder what Harris is thinking now......something like ...'what the hell have I done ...a million ducats wasn't enough'
  7. I'm not a big fan of stretch Stanley but I hope we get more than a bench warmer for him or a high mileage defenceman......
  8. Certainly there are situations where it becomes too expensive and would be the death knell of a gm to enter deals where it's too expensive and do not make sense BUT you just gave one like the Dubois move...What I don't agree with is giving up the 'probably assets' you mentioned to make that move to obtain Chychrun....We were apparently offering more than Ottawa (what that consisted of would only be known by Chevy) BUT it had to be significant....and yet the deal failed.....Are you telling me that Ottawa is a better market than Winnipeg and that's the reason it didn't work , because if it is, I can guarantee that 'berg' doesn't have anything on the Peg...So we were willing to give up assets and still came up empty....Something went wrong and I hope the gm has answers as to why it ended that way
  9. I agree with the 'stacked deck' comment BUT in reality if we are only depending on the draft/develop and retain....then we're hooped from ever becoming a Cup winner.....There isn't one club from cellar dweller to the echelon teams that don't try and strengthen through trade.....IF it's beneficial and improves your club ....you do it or risk the label of 'not a team willing to go the extra mile to succeed'....Certainly there's a point where acquiring a player through a trade does not equate to a benefit monetarily, or make sense finanacially BUT you have to be prepared to do everything you can to improve a club like the Jets are presently in the standings..... or risk being out of the winners circle forever
  10. AND if that's the best ...time to move on....We're not part of the NHL to give a guy a job in perpetuity ...produce or move along....We're stagnant and that's a reason why players see us as a dead end....New blood needed and there comes a time when change is needed
  11. Time to have a really good look at Chevy's future with this club................................??
  12. Big movement expected by Chevy shortly......bowel that is ...it'll be craptacular
  13. With regard to Sayles......Walters definitely said he wasn't going to give Sayles his ask and let him walk...I was not impressed with Sayles and didn't believe he should get a raise of any kind so I can agree with Walters call on this one....To say we haven't got a replacement this early in the game is a little pessimistic ....how do we know what is coming down the road....I believe in this club finding talent....it's been proven time and time again.......have a little faith
  14. Announcing Stove in that lineup is a little premature ain't it...I thought he was done
  15. Show us the proof Ballsy or shut your big gob....Where the hell does this guy get off slandering us.....this coming from a club that used to hide players in a house rented by the club...This guys name should be Bull$hit Ballsy
  16. have to ask his doctor....being from B.C. that's gonna be a chore
  17. Not the one point you lucked out on us with, I hope.......let's not go there
  18. TO left scrambling now....unless they can make a trade which seems unlikely...Repeating as Cup chumps....errrr I mean champs will be a feat....We'll be seeing someone else in the Cup game in 23' I figure....GOBIGBLUE....Is my name'homer'??....you bet
  19. welllll....if the punter turns out to be anything like Schoen in the talent dept.....we are on to something
  20. wasn't much room in the phone booth........you could hardly turn around
  21. Most of the offseason 'action' or 'non-action' in saskabush has been to fill their inevitable end in 23' AND that's to secure the basement this year and the certainty of cleaning house at it's end....It's all right there
  22. or a fridge.....There's gotta be a dl of note out there and I trust our scouting to ferret one out....Look for a truck load of appliances in tc
  23. Depth and more depth.....plus one helluva blocker....gawd damn I luv it....This receiving corps is going to give the opposition fits.....I just have to go back to some of those passes Sheed picked off the top of his boots and extended drives....He belongs here with Zack and the guys ...I am as glad as he is to see him continue his career here....You the man Mr. Bailey ....true blue to the bone
  24. TO.....can only hope........................Bomberland NO 1
  25. Sure would be nice to have him NOW....BUT you're probably right and the right move would be to wait.......Giving up Dobson and a first rounder is awful expensive....or another player of his caliber doesn't work for me
