  1. It's not true. All someone said is they have agreed on the length (6 years) but they ain't there on the cash
  2. Ladd isn't worth it. Neither is buff. Trouba is on coke if he thinks 20 points gets him 7 million Trade Ladd. Trade buff. Sign trouba at 7 years 42 million. Trade for Hamonic. I'd even go 6 6 6 6 7 7 7 for Trouba. Combined 7 years 45 million. Fair The fact that buff and Ladd think they should be getting superstar elite money says it all. Trade them now
  3. Kadri and these are exactly the penalties I'm talking about and I'm sure the Jets are 2. No issues with the dumb lazy ones, the stick infractions etc, it's those ones against Myers,Buff,Lowry for just being bigger and stronger that are really annoying.
  4. Personally, It's about damn time. It's pretty obvious that the Jets have targets on their back, It's really obvious actually. They get calls against them that other teams constantly get away with. They should have gone on about the reffing a while ago instead of now but they are definitely right and everyone knows it. It's actually ridiculous some of the calls they get. Will complaining about it help? Maybe, Maybe not. I have no issues with the Jets getting called for these penalties as long as the other team they are playing gets them same calls against them and they don't so the Jets have a valid point. I'm with you on this. Can't hurt. Let's officiating know we've noticed. We're a big strong team that shouldn't be penalized for aggressiveness within the rules. Not upset over the dumb (i.e., lazy) penalties though, no issue with the refs there, that's on us. Agreed. No issues with the dumb lazy penalties like slashing or high sticking or things of that nature, The issue i have is when one of our bigger guys, let's just use Buff as an example, He hits someone and because he's bigger, he gets a penalty. Has happened to Lowry a couple times too. 2 minutes for basically being stronger.
  5. I guess 2 spots technically... the one guard spot and the 6th oline spot. Don't think Neufeld or Picard should be either. Money better spent elsewhere.
  6. Watched Becky vs Sasha <--- very good match The tag title ladder match was insane, Kalisto is just crazy good... his finisher off the top of the ladder was amazing and the best spot I've seen in a ladder match in years. Ryback- Rusev - Boring Del Rio- Swagger - Boring Charlotte and Paige was good for what it was Didn't mind the Wyatts destroying the ECW originals... Wyatts needed to be dominant and were. The main event was awful and boring. Sheamus is terrible and Reigns is being forced fed to the fans so much and it's not working at all Also thought Owens vs Ambrose was a really good match. Not sure I'd have put the strap on Ambrose tho Last thing I'll say... It's hard to take the League Of Nations thing seriously because for months and months, every one of them except Del Rio (who wasn't around) was being jobbed left right and center, losing night in night out. Now they put them together and they are pushing them as their top Heel group, but how can they be taken seriously when the fans have been made to think they are nothing more than Jobbers. It doesn't work and the ratings reflect that. Put me in the group that is not excited at all about the prospects of HHH vs Reigns at Wrestlemania. That really doesn't do it for me at all. They missed their chance to turn Reigns Heel, Unless Stephanie gets all lovey dovey for Reigns and Costs HHH the match at Mania, this is just a pointless feud. It means nothing at all. It's not gonna put asses in seats, yeah they will inflate the numbers at Cowboys stadium and say they will have over 100,000 people there but it won't be close to it. WWE is in a tough spot at the moment, It's time for change for sure but it almost seems like they really don't know what to do.
  7. Yup This is a very solid signing. Really liked his play and it was very noticeable when he got hurt, we got worse. Bryant,Chungh,Goossen,??,Daniels is a nice group. Now upgrade that one guard position and cut Picard and try to trade Neufeld. Not 2 even mention the fact that cutting picard and either trading or cutting neufeld saves you tons of SMS space that can be used elsewhere.
  8. Crosby is fine. It's not Crosby that is the problem. It's the lack of D and the system that they played under their previous coach. Crosby is still the best player in the world... and it's not even close. He will be fine.
  9. What really makes no sense here is this isn't a lateral move, It's not like Maas is going from OC to OC, he's going from OC to Head Coach... Head Coach and OC technically but last time I checked, Head Coach is a step up from OC. Basically if i was the Mediator, I would go... ok so he was OC in Ottawa, he's now Head Coach in Edmonton, That's a step up... CASE CLOSED. No compensation.
  10. Personally, It's about damn time. It's pretty obvious that the Jets have targets on their back, It's really obvious actually.

  11. This is what happens when you go from having no money to tons of money... Kind of half reminds me of the Native guy who won the Lotto 649 several years back, he won 50 million dollars, bought all his friends and familly new trucks and houses, bought a new house not far from my parents house actually, not that big of an expense actually, definitely not over a million dollars, probably closer to 500,000. Not bad but... 50 friends x 50,000 trucks... plus 50 friends x houses.... adds up. Years later, the guy ended up dying and was broke when he died, had nothing left cuz he drank it away, used drugs all the time... had nothing left. Similar situations here... not saying that Johnson and his parents are similar but.... in a way, when you go from having nothing to an unlimited amount of money, you go crazy with it, always think it's gonna be there but what you don't realize is that it goes pretty quickly actually.
  12. From my understanding, the wrong number was posted on the website for 1 day... Not saying that is ok but they obviously noticed the mistake pretty quickly. Yeah the person posting it should have double or even triple checked to make sure but... sometimes mistakes happen. That's all this was. In the end tho, the winner got his money and that's all that really matters.
  13. From the Twitter feed there, it sounds like lots of this compensation talk is media driven, I'm sure Ottawa are being douches here too but.... how much? who knows, It seems like guys like Madani, Lawless even and the sorts are sort of pushing this compensation talk a little bit. Funny cuz the NHL just got rid of compensation for coaches signing with other teams. Gotta admit tho, Never cared for Ottawa and their whining baby QB and now this to an extent, makes them pretty easy to dislike. Not to mention, their GM is a huge ****** too oh yeah and the whole REDBLACKS thing too. YUP. Pretty easy to dislike them. Gonna make it a whole lot sweeter when they basically suck big time next season.
  14. Gonna go ahead and say it, Stamkos hasn't been the same since he came back from his injury a couple years ago. Somebody is going to massively overpay for him in the off-season if he makes it to free agency and be hating themselves in a couple years.
  15. Best quote I've read about this whole Compensation thing from Ottawa........ So Ottawa is throwing a temper tantrum of sorts here, but what else would you expect from a 2 year old.
  16. In other words... the Redblacks are being babies like their QB. ******* really
  17. Chipman was on a show and let it be known that losing Ladd and or buff for nothing is unacceptable
  18. I could see it. Not sure about Perreault but... something similar i think could work for sure. Jets are 5 points out of the playoffs, but fun fact... 5 points out of being 30th in the league. Time to make changes.
  19. Doubt Malkin waives for Edmonton. Plus Nikitin doesn't really help Pitt. It would have to be Schultz or someone else like that. Plus i think Pitt is so close to the cap that the cash coming back from trading Malkin would have to be equal or less than what Malkin is paid. Not sure RNH at 6 million and Nikitin at 4.5 million is worth it for them. I'm looking at Nashville and I see a need for a top line center and i see a ton of D men on Nashville, I think those 2 teams are a match.
  20. Wouldn't be opposed to guest coach with us this past season at training camp, Noel Prefontaine ,being named special teams coach.
  21. Personally, I think it's time to move on from the current core and transition to the younger one. Keep Wheeler and Little around since they are on friendly somewhat long term contracts, Think you need a few vets around. Give Wheeler the C. Transition tho to Scheif,Ehlers and the younger guys. Bring up and play Armia and Lipon, Maybe De Leo, who is having quite a good season with the Moose, Trade Buff Ladd,Toby even for picks (1st round 2016 picks) and prospects (almost ready or even ready prospects) preferably a LHD like Theodore or maybe Pouliot from Pitt. Go get Hamonic from the NYI, if it means you have to trade Myers plus Burmi, do it. Build around Wheeler,Little but more so Scheif,Ehlers,Lowry,Copp,Trouba,Hamonic.... I think after 5 years and 1 playoff appearance, it's pretty safe to say that the current veteran group just can't get it done, they will never be more than a bubble team with the current veteran leadership of ladd and buff, they show up when they want too... I'd still try to sign Ladd but i wouldn't give him 6.5 million a year, if he would settle for 6 x 6 i'd do it.. or even 7 x 5 i'd do it... but anything more, Nope. Trade him. Buff needs to go. Stuart? not sure, he's married to a true north employee but... he should probably either be benched or maybe transition to a coaching role or a 7th d man role. Time to move on. Pav = traded or bought out this summer. I'm not suggesting we tank for a top pick but... if we get the top pick in the draft or a top 3 pick... that helps too. Imagine Austin Mathews, Jacob Chychrun (LHD) or one of the other top picks on the team... throw in Roslovic who lots of people feel is just about NHL ready and Kyle Connor and you have a pretty good young group to build around.
  22. Rumor has it Benevides as DC, McDiarmind as Special Teams coach.
  23. Copp should be promoted to the third line, guy has some skill and basically is the reason the 4th line is as good as they are (they are pretty good, they just don't play enough). Put Copp with a guy with some scoring ability like Ehlers and perhaps that helps. ??,Copp,Ehlers <--- 3rd line. Maybe Lowry on the left side there since he and copp seem to have some chemistry. Bump Burmi and Thorburn to the 4th line. Make a decision on Ladd and Buff sooner rather than later. Offer Ladd your best offer, if he doesn't sign, trade him. Same with Buff, offer him your best and final offer, doesn't sign, Trade him.
  24. -9 in goals but how many empty netters have we allowed. Lots. Probably 9 at the very least. And if anyone thought we'd be contenders?? Lol. Your expectations were way too high. And that's not the jets fault.... that's your fault.
  25. Helle will play
