This forum is better in the off season. I find once the season starts up.... all the sky is falling folks show up.... I mean you just need to look at the first game of the preseason thread. I believe it's on page 30 by now. Why? Cuz we won so not much to go off about. Lose tho and uh oh here we go.... crazy. So many people reading in to the pre season so much....
I'm sorry but.... when you are constantly being negative or looking for the bad.... man what's the point. Perhaps sports isn't your thing.
Could go 20 and 0 win the grey cup. Lose our first pre season the year later and ppl would complain or perhaps say things like we were lucky to win. Just crazy
No idea but what I've heard is true north isn't that happy with the process but there is nothing they can do about it because it's an nhl event and the nhl has the say.
Thought the ppv was overall very good. Ambrose cashing in on Seth who just beat Roman was unexpected
Hell of a spot by Cesaro also in the ladder match. Off the ladder springboard to ropes to flying European uppercut was wow
No minny for McLean. Scott Stevens is there. Yes I think McLean would be a good hire. I don't think it will happen tho. Think Tom Barasso Jeff Daniels types.... guys who have history with Maurice
Need a rfa goalie or one under contract to expose. Pav is ufa. Helle is rfa but they'd keep him. Comrie is rfa but doesn't qualify I don't think.
You can sign hutch 2 years. Expose him. He won't get picked but regardless sounds like if you can't meet the requirements you lose a player or draft picks.
Agreed. Matthews is a center. A legit franchise Center. Laine is a nice consolation prize but if the jets had the first pick and took a winger over a franchise Center I'd be pissed
Castillo can punt kick fgs and kickoff. He's insurance. I'm not convinced he makes the game day roster but.... if he does its not a terrible problem. Cdn depth isn't an issue really.
Interesting crowd here. Last year we start 8 CDNS people ask why. This year looks like the minimum 7... people ask why pretty much. Our cdn depth is much improved. Which cdn besides Matt Bucknor who looked terrible in pre season did we get rid of that we shouldn't have?
7 years 38.5 million for Trouba seems fair. 5.5 AAV
I guess if I'm Troubas agent I'd say look at the fancy stats... they are better. Age. The fact he was saddled with Stuart. The fact that both enstrom and Myers make similar
Oh well. Then we get Matthews. A potential 1 2 Scheifs Matthews for 8 to 10 years would just be awful. If we were picking first 95 percent chance we take Matthews. I'd almost even say 100 percent chance.
Sami Vatanen signs 4 years 19 million to stay in Anaheim. Surprised here for sure. Strong rumors that he was available but guess not.
Looking more and more likely that Myers to Edmonton could be realistic and the only option oilers have left to improve the right handed D side
It's 95 percent likely He's a Jet. The other 5 would be I'd Toronto took him then oh no not Matthews. Jets can sit back and let Toronto take Matthews or Laine and then take whoever they don't
Maybe 7 or so I'd imagine.
Really haven't been paying attention that much but gotta think a few DB's, OL and a receiver or 2 are still on the cutting block.
Yup. None are. Butcher back to school makes sense. The Other guys, really... they are easily replaceable players, can get those types of guys every draft pretty much. Looks like a guy like Inzandt might be PR bound tho, they haven't cut him yet and i would assume he's going to the PR tho.
Gotta wonder if they might look at other teams cuts, a guy like Lawlor out of Montreal very well could be on their radar for a PR spot.
