Goalie replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Its more exciting than the NFL. Thats for sure. Ppl need to just enjoy it and stop criticising week 1 of season 1. CFL sucks for weeks also -

Vince McMahon considers move to bring back the XFL
Goalie replied to wbbfan's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Ratings will be big. Trending huge on twitter. Reminds me of the first couple games of the CFL season tho, sloppy with some moments. -
Niku Harkins Appleton standing out along with Helle. Our PP fn sucks tho. Like seriously kills our momentum sucks. 5 on 4 to 4 on 4 to 4 on 3 in seconds. Just garbage. Wheeler can whine but that's a hold 100 percent, perhaps hes whining about the lateness of the call which was quite late.

Neither did Streveler or Evans or any backup.. Arbuckle was a backup. I mean eventually you go with your guy over guys who have shown all they are is a backup. Veterans are good for rooms but playing? Gimme the unproven Mcguire over the proven at best Backup. The younger guy needs to play in order to see what you got. At worst Mcguire is 1 of the vets some want to sign, but maybe he's more. I think he is. His mechanics and smarts in limited reps have been pretty solid.

Matt signs for 3 after MBT signs for 1. Toronto makes it clear who they think will be their starter. Good luck to Matt.

Byfuglien contemplating NHL future
Goalie replied to captaincanuck12's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
The rumor is they are coming to a termination of his contract or a buy out of sorts in simpler terms, the grievance is irrelevant and likely agent driven and rumor has it the reason they are going to "buy him out" instead is cuz he knows he wont win the grievance. It sounds like Buff is done with hockey, retiring, Think of the buy out as a going away present. Doesn't count on the cap. Buff is a FA but hes Buff and he hasnt skated in a long time and off ice fitness has never been a priority of his. Hes retired. If he wants to come back, he wont hes old for hockey and especially for a D man at his size and just mass really, but hes a FA who can sign anywhere -
Byfuglien contemplating NHL future
Goalie replied to captaincanuck12's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Yes. This summer, my GF daughter and I spent a weekend in Kenora. She has family there and we were on their pontoon boat and while in the water a very large vessel was near by fishing away, not sure if he was on it but GFs cousin said that is Byfugliens boat. Hell of a boat to say the least. Hope he retires for real and doesn't sign elsewhere, loved him as a player, went to that outdoor forks practice years ago and he was a character for sure. Regardless of what happened last year, like Wheeler would even mention that in public, wish Buff well. Not sure why ppl think 2 alpha males getting in to a brawl is so far fetched tho, happens all the time. I said thats what the rumor is, doesn't mean the next day they weren't cordial but its well known buff really isn't a guy who meshes well always. Hes a character for real, he's got his own way and its worked for him. Good luck Fishing Buff. -

So the Captain and 2 Assistants are on to start OT and stay on for way 2 long. Here is the real problem folks.. Either our leadership is extremely dumb or selfish cuz this was not the first time 55 and 26 stayed out way 2 long in OT. It starts and ends with leadership. Personally i think its neither and it's knowing that there are absolutely zero consequences from Maurice coming. Maurice loves his vets and 55 and 26 are his faves. But both are extremely lazy and selfish at times. Their D zone play is just... Wow.. Non existent. Our Captain and Assistant are floaters. This is a problem. Hate to say it but if Mo dont go one of 55 or 26 probably should.

Sign Hamonic off season or see If Calgary would do Perreault. Sami Vatanen would be a nice pickup also. Ghost would be nice. A left side of Morrissey Ghost Samberg be strong but prob blocks Heinola. I think organizational wise, RHD are needed more.
-
For Dillon? A 3rd?
-
Roslo. Connor. (No D ability)
-
Yup. Done as a Jet. Wonder if he signs elsewhere? Guy kinda screwed the Jets a wee bit. Great player tho. Ruffled feathers.
-
Does Buffs absence hurt the pp? You damn right but.. Buffs absence isnt causing Wheeler to turn the puck over all the time or causing them to have troubles even entering the zone. That's a system issue and perhaps its time to put Wheeler on pp2 and give Ehlers his spot. Take pionk and his extremely slow passes to laine off for Niku who is a pp wizard.
-
Hes done as a Jet. Think its fairly obvious
-
Agreed. Hes done as a Jet for sure. Im not sure hes done Hockey but done as a Jet 100 percent. Something odd happened with buff, there were rumors of ruffled feathers, perhaps his were ruffled. What ppl forget is buff didn't show up last year for his exit interviews.. He just skipped it and left. He was also quite visibly pissed or frustrated ill say last season when Trouba kept getting pp1 minutes over him also. Ppl will call BS but go back and watch a few games.. Visibly upset for sure. Also lost in all this is the Jets record without buff is actually pretty good.. If our PP and PK weren't complete garbage we'd likely be 2nd in the central cuz sp teams has certainly cost us wins. For as poor as they have played for pretty much the last year now.. Since January 2019.. An avg PP and PK likely means several more wins. Its all Helle right now but.. With an avg PP we are in a playoff spot likely sitting comfortably. Buff and Wheeler had some issues.. They did... They don't get along.. Never have, they just dont and with Wheeler self admitting he was kind of a prick last year.. Definitely part of the ruffled feathers group. Think Buff prob had enough.
-
Better game but... Gotta see them do this to a team who didnt get here early morning after playing the night before. Yeah Jets played also but slept in their own beds. PP still sucks.
-
He did when he felt like it. The blues players have no obligation to talk to the media here. If he wasn't 1 of the guys scheduled to talk by St Louis, he doesn't need 2. You just lost 5 2 after losing the night b4 4 2.. Yeah.. Billeck is a clown.
-
This game can be summed up nicely here.. 0 for 6. Also 1 of those 0 fors, we had a 5 on 3 and dumped the puck in from center and rask stopped it and their D man shot it down the ice on a 5 on 3. Time to take Wheeler off the PP, hes 2 slow moving the puck.
-
Depends if the dude has term tho.. Id give up a 1st for a 2 center or maybe 1 RHD. But id prob move Buff Kuli Perreault maybe if i can biteto beaulieu u know Roslo maybe.
-
So is Sami Vatanen.
-
Also.. The buzz is they suck and are boring to watch here... So yeah why go watch that in person all the time
-
Gonna expand.. Hockey is fn pricey to play these days.. 10 15 years ago.. It wasnt.. As a former goalie, yeah stuff got pricey but... I could pay for half myself so ya.. Fair deal. Perhaps Hockey just isn't as popular anymore. Perhaps Hockey is pricing out the avg Canadian.
