They weren’t. It’s an older different slower team. They went bombers and it don’t work in hockey when you the old and slowest team.

Plus Brady is a starting Canadian. I mean Do ppl not get that starting Canadians get paid in the cfl? Receivers making 290 to 325 and they have 5 catches a game. I want the best 6 or 7 (whatever it is) starting Canadians I can have. If that means rookie American defensive ends tackles or DBs? So be it.

I literally walk downtown every morning at 645am. I mean I’ve never experienced any problems. I mean ppl asking for money or smokes isn’t a problem and headphones pretty much tells ppl to **** off. This fake narrative about downtown is part of the problem here. Every city has a major meth problem. It’s not Winnipeg exclusive. Calgary Edmonton Toronto Montreal and Vancouver all have the same issues. All of them. Vancouver is worse.

https://www.bluebombers.com/2025/12/17/redha-kramdis-inspirational-transformation/ I dunno. He’s gone through a lot and Is a smart versatile leader on D. He made tackles. Maybe nothing that stands out but pretty sure he’s had a few pretty big tackles In his career. Blew guy up or 2 for sure. There’s the booch narrative with him tho so he gets **** on while jay person and Devin Adams are praised.

Shouldn’t have been any. Tkachuk ****** around and found out.

Maybe different circumstances as he was unfortunately murdered

Nobody knows more about elite athleticism than 35 to 70 year old men online who don’t play pro. I also don’t get the hate as he’s a versatile smart starting Canadian. Starting Canadians prob should get paid. I mean it is the Canadian football league. The whining about cap allocation is also hilarious as nobody really has a clue there. There is no cfl salary cap site that updates every 2 hours. I mean. Who cares. It’s really not our concern.

Thing is when you’re good you don’t get high draft picks. Highest pick was Laine but originally we were supposed to be drafting 7th or so, believe scheif was taken 9th so none of our actually 1sts were less than 7th overall. When you are good those 1sts become later picks and most those guys actually don’t make a difference. If we get a legit top 3 or 5 pick this year that’s our 1st legit top 5 pick since returning. We won Laine. Who is 22 23 on the moose? Expecting 3rd round and later dudes to be top 6 talent is a wild take. Guys with potential on the moose currently are Salo Yager Chibrikov and that’s about it currently but Freij and Sasha are 2 strong D prospects and He and Walton are 2 very good forward prospects. Lambert is a bust. Ford is a 4th liner in the nhl. Reality is when you have a chance and your pick is gonna be between 22 and 32 most years, you trade it. None of the picks we traded have turned into game changers. Management isn’t on the ice. Honestly injuries and just players who appear washed up but what do you do. Do you trade Nyquist Pearson Schenn and miller and the sorts? For what? A bag of pucks cuz none are bringing back a 1st 2nd or 3rd. Bring up the young guys after the trade deadline then go on a roll and **** our chances at a high pick. McKenna Ivar S and the NoDak D are game changers. here’s the problem. We got scheif Connor and Vilardi plus Perfetti when healthy (he’s not) And emerging talent like Morgan Barron but then we got a whole bunch of 4th line guys including the captain Nino Iafallo (that would be the perfect 4th line actually ) Toews Pearson Nyquist and name it really. That’s the problem. We don’t have top 6 talent. We have plenty of 4th line talent.

People underrating holm. He’d fit in with what Pittsburgh does quite well. Personally I think he’s our best option at safety.

With a win we are 31st in the league and is it 6 or 8 points out of the playoffs lol. That’s ridiculous in itself. Only a few points back of the wildcard teams. I don’t think we can compete with Dallas Colorado or Minnesota anymore. We need a franchise changer to do it.

I’ll say this. Colorado wasn’t awful then they were one year and won MacKinnon. McKenna and any of the top 3 4 5 talent this draft improves our team instantly. There’s the silver lining. McKenna would be franchise changing. id like to see us move on from Pearson Nyquist schenn miller and even Toews but I’m not sure what we getting in return for any of them. I mean. None are returning 1sts id move them for what I can get, maybe Nino and names available also but ya bring up the kids and maybe make a trade involving lambert for a nhl forward if possible lambert has sucked tho

I just don’t get the logic. Marchand Stone Horvat and Wilson is just insane. I remember when we took the best players and dominated. Now they building lines and having roles for lesser talented slow players. 55 and Bédard not making it is just it’s stupidity. Point makes some sense. Cirelli don’t.

If 1 bad year means fans give up on the team then we don’t deserve a team here.

I’d agree with this. Wilson and 40 year old Marchand makes no sense. Bedard not on the team doesn’t make sense either. Horvat over Scheifele is also mind numbing Josh was guaranteed to make it. He was at the 4 nations and everything. He made the team. That was obvious. Scheifele not making it is bullshit.

They played well enough to win but Winnipeg born goalies have the games of their careers against the jets in Winnipeg. It’s just a thing. Pickard was like 4.5 goals against per game. Dude stood on his head.

Yeah. That was a wild game. Kelly had his moments

Seems like Jake was in the video room lots. He put in time. He wasn’t great as a player but that probably doesn’t matter. Wade was a Jake back in his day lol, kinda different situations cuz Wade has a successful business career but similar really cuz both weren’t great players. Dinwiddie wasn’t good. Buck wasnt the best but not the worst. Osh was a good Canadian player, Mike miller our sp teams guy, he wasn’t an all star. I mean. I don’t want to go through teams in the cfl and look but guaranteed half the positional coaches were just dudes who played a few seasons or not even. They just played high school some of them. College. I mean. Who cares really. It’s pretty common for Former players to become coaches. And besides Jake isn’t gonna make Willie less lazy or any of that. He’s not the DC ffs. But I’m hoping our DL has a great year regardless. In reality shouldn’t be hard for Jake and crew to improve on 10 sacks all year really. Our DL sucked last year. I mean nowhere to go but up for them. And despite the narrative for a dude who played 13 years all in blue n gold, it wasn’t just him. And there’s some comedy in ppl on the internet sites thinking they know more than dude who played for 13 years in the pros plus school and prior years of actually playing football but yeah. Happy new year. If there’s a so called plethora of good Canadian dl coaches in the u sports then why don’t teams hire them. Hmm. And we out.

Yes. SJ and Chicago 100 percent and buffalo in the McDavid draft 100 percent tanked but it was easy for them as they didn’t have a 40 goal scoring winger. A ppg center and a legit mvp goaltender. Players won’t “tank” but management and coaches can do things to help the team lose tho. If I didn’t know any better I’d think Arniel and Chevy are kind of tanking this season as they are not playing the 12 best forwards or 6 best d every game. Also Arniel constantly says he likes Toews game. I mean either Toews needs coddling or Arniel is delusional

Darnold will never win the big game tho. He’s a great regular season guy tho. that nfc north is the division of death tho.

Yup. MARY CHRISTmas

Bombers toque and $$$$$$ and an essential oils mist thing. So nice.

Wilson pretty much done confirmed. Only QB back from last year will be Zach and Artopoeous. I do wonder if Streveler is added as a coach tho. Right now it’s Zach and 3 guys with zero cfl actual game experience. Only way they throw a ball is if Zach is hurt tho.

Buffalo tanked. Chicago tanked. Sharks tanked the last few years. Those are teams who pretty much admitted it. Nobody is gonna say tank tho.

Last year they won the presidents trophy. He’s prob as surprised as Chevy and Arniel. They shouldn’t be this bad.

They won’t rebuild. Not with 55 81 37 all signed long term. They will retool and if that means tanking this season I think that’s ok. McKenna is a franchise player. SJ pretty much. Sharks. Buffalo also tried tanking for McDavid as rumors were he wanted to go to there or preferred it but Edmonton won the draft.
