Game 33 : Florida FC @ Can't Blame The Schedule No More
Goalie replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
A lot of people on other sites are saying they look like a team who has checked out and look similar to the Hurricanes the last season Maurice was there. Fans are getting restless... starting to boo. Maurice might just have to go -
Game 33 : Florida FC @ Can't Blame The Schedule No More

Almost 40 shots by Florida after 2. Special teams just awful. I dunno. Maurice might need to pay the price. They look flat after a 3 day break -
Game 33 : Florida FC @ Can't Blame The Schedule No More
Goalie replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
You really have no idea how to evaluate goaltending if you think that. Pav and Hutch tied? Hutch might be struggling but my guess is he would have better numbers than pav has if he was in the AHL. Like it or not... Pav is at the bottom. He's done. Finished. I'd be surprised if he was even in North America next season. -
I'd think Armia gets until after Xmas also just because why not let him heal completely. Give him the Xmas break

Game 33 : Florida FC @ Can't Blame The Schedule No More
Goalie replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
Good Cuz whether you agree or not he is currently the Jets best goalie. At this point in his career he's the best goalie in the entire organization and it's not close actually. Helle. Comrie. Hutch. Pav. In that order probably -
Pav is actually 5 3 4 with a 3.08 GAA and a 907 save percentage IN THE AHL

To be fair, it happened years and years ago, when he was just a little boy... I know it's tough but Eventually, people have to move on. I'm sure regardless of what happened there, he has moved on, that's all you can really do

Everyone knows it's scripted now also, back in the day people only really had access to Meltzer and his newsletter, that wasn't a very large segment of the population really, now you can just log on to the computer and go to 1 of 100's or 1000's of sites and see all these insider news and info. WWE likes to treat their fans like they are dumb but reality is, that the WWE fans have evolved over time, but the WWE has not evolved with them. They still treat the fans like they are clueless morons who think the business is somewhat real still, They don't listen to the fans, the fans beg beg beg for certain guys to get pushed, but WWE says NO. You keep saying NO over and over to your paying customer and that paying customer is just gonna say enough and stop watching. Judging by their ratings, lots of people have said enough is enough. I feel that they need to listen to the fans, they don't and that's a major reason why they are what they are right now. Listen to your customers, WWE is the only business i can actually think of who blatantly and obviously says SCREW YOU to their customers. It's almost like they don't want to make more money or it's almost like Vince is truly just so out of touch that maybe he has no idea what makes a star in 2016... Nakamura is a star tho, What would Vince do with him tho? Probably ruin him... and turn him in to Funaki or something similar to that..He'd be a stereotype really instead of allowing to be himself. I look at the Cruiserweights as a great example as to their stupidity, I like the CW's, they are exciting, that CWC was very very good, very entertaining tournament and very good matches, I said it on twitter before to people who say, i used to love the CW's but for some reason, i'm just not that in to them anymore.. I said, it's because we were all expecting them to be allowed to go out there and do what they did on the CWC but Vince and his boys basically cut their balls off before they had the chance to do it... What makes the CW'S so unique is their ability to fly and go at a fast pace and just really, they are different. Vince has turned them in to basically, smaller roman reigns types who basically hit one or 2 big moves and that's it... But that's not what the CW'S are really all about is it.

Thing is, with the whole Russian thing, if, IF IF IF there is evidence to suggest that perhaps they did mess around with the election a wee bit, wouldn't people, regardless of who you preferred to win, want to know that they did? This isn't about Dems vs Republicans, this is about the possibility that another country basically screwed you over. Is that the point people are missing here? Yeah, maybe the Russians didn't do anything but WHAT IF they actually did influence the results significantly? Then what?

I think you can create stars pretty easily, I think the fans are dying to cheer for guys like, yeah i'm gonna say it... Sami Zayn is an example of a guy who has that IT factor to him, The problem is i think Vince and the writers don't really know what to do with these guys... you can have great wrestling matches all you want and i enjoy me a great wrestling match but to create a star, you need the machine to get behind you and push you. They were forced FORCED to push Bryan, fans wanted him for so long and they reluctantly finally pushed him and he became a star for sure, unfortunately had to retire or was forced to but... it just shows that if you actually listen to what the fans want and push the guys they want pushed, then stars can be created. The fans are rejecting a guy like Roman Reigns big time, but he's being shoved down our throats constantly, his booking has actually hurt him, he has potential or had let's say and i feel they have ruined him by shoving him down our throats making him kind of a 2016 version of the 1980's Hulk Hogan, People don't want that anymore, they want some reality behind the character, they like the under dog, the guy that perhaps gets ignored by the machine a bit, they don't care for the guy that the machine pushes. Scripted Promos are a big problem also, You think a writer could come up with Austin 316 says i just wooped your ass? Not a chance. Gotta let these guys go out there unfiltered to an extent and let them go off script if you will and see what happens, worst case scenario? some bomb big time, best case scenario, you find a guy that perhaps has some personality but just hasn't been able to express it yet because of the scripted promos and way they have been booked.

Well, If we are suggesting other options other than Nichols... a few pop in to my head... Keep in mind that with several of these guys, I'd probably sign Glenn to be a backup/starter for us so here goes James Franklin - obvious choice here really Rakeem Cato - Yeah i know, but... he's an option i suppose Jeremiah Masoli- didn't look awful playing for the Ticats actually Durant - I don't see it happening personally

Thought this could be an interesting little topic... finding out interesting fun facts about some of our future Jets players I'll start Eric Comries Dad owns the Brick and has a net worth of 415 million dollars.

1. Get rid of the challenging of plays away from the ball, like for example, you can't challenge pass interference on Dressler if the ball was thrown to smith on the other side of the field, has nothing to do with the play, That needs to stop. 2. Put a 60 second clock on the replay system, if in 60 seconds you can't determine if it's a penalty or not, the call on the field stands. That's about all I'd do. And maybe, just maybe, if you lose a challenge, not only do you lose a timeout but you also get a delay of game penalty and a 10 yard penalty on the play let's say. PI should be blatant also and obvious. None of this chincy stuff that they call some games and don't call other games. Other than that, Just leave it be...

maybe by a tiny amount if anything, i thought i heard like 50,000 or even less it goes up every year or something, maybe not tho but still... I guess, the point in all this, Nichols doesn't deserve to be paid anything close to what the real elite franchise QB's in this league make. If he wants 450,000 and he's willing to die on that hill, Then, i think, we need to perhaps accept the fact that Matt Nichols won't be a bomber next season and if it's because he wants 450,000 and the bombers don't want to give that to him, I'm fine with that.
-
That Network is going to be a gold mine for them, exclusive content for other countries, the fact that they are actually teaming up with independent promotions, It's crazy actually, i never would have thought that 5 years ago, you'd see the WWE ever really acknowledge that independent companies actually exist and now they are mentioning them by name and even promoting them. Some talk that some American Independents like the ultra fun PWG will have shows on the Network also.
-
Thing is, Since Nichols is a good system QB, if you pay him 450 000, who do you have to let go to give him that money? I mean, Darvin Adams is a free agent and so are several other important pieces on the team, I mean, let's just say they give Nichols his 450,000 (they won't) but assume they do, Where do you find the savings, who gets the axe? who are you forced to let go? Cuz it will be somebody for sure if not 2 or 3 guys.

Canucks got more problems than the coach. They need a legit rebuild but I'm not sure that the owner who meddles big time or the very bandwagon Vancouver fan base has the patience for it

Was probably Burke but perhaps accidentally. He's kind of gone in to seclusion hasn't he

It's an online message board so I don't think it's possible to put words in your mouth unless I email them to you -
And the fact that he's a big family guy and winnipeg is actually the closest nhl city to his family in like grand forks
-
I'd say he's nhl ready. He'd be an upgrade on Postma easily. Plus he's from North Dakota so really... it's just a matter of finishing his season with his brother and he will sign
-
Montreal gave up a 1st for Adams. Nichols ain't starting there. Toronto gave up a 1st for Willy plus They have Ray still. Nope. Sask? Jones sent him packing once and doubt will pay him 450 K or close. . Nichols had a good year but he's not even close to being in that elite level. So shouldn't be paid like he is.
-
Nichols is not in the elite level like BLM Reilly Burris Colaros Jennings even. He's probably near the bottom in terms of starters. He's a good system QB tho. Say what you want about Lapo but he used Nichols to the best of his abilities.
