wow. how is the gm supposed to know that a guy brought in to be a leader wouldn't accept being a backup. This isn't on walters or o'shea, this is on Banks, we don't need selfish players on the team, like it or not, banks was/is being selfish. Not a leader. If he only wants to be a starter, i'd suspect his days in the CFL are over.

got a simple question for you, you seem to like to stick up for every other team all the time, what are you gonna say when drew willy has a bad game?

not sure why anyone thinks the optics matter, its football. who gives a crap about optics. They made a mistake. Its really that simple. You think the average fan gives a crap about optics? nope, all the average fan cares about is winning. This board was awfully quiet the day after the bombers won that game... funny thing, im willing to bet the second they lose, that its not so quiet the next day. Optics? who cares about optics.

He's 98 percent wrong all the time though. i read that site too and the guy is basically just there for craps n giggles. It's like reading tweets from montreal fans who think kane will go there for thomas plekanec, just LOL at those tweets really. Will there possibly be trades by the Jets coming? maybe, but i doubt its anything significant. You know what makes sense for both teams, the eric staal rumour, id trade buff for staal, it helps us and it helps them too. They need D, we need a centre. It actually makes sense.

if the weather in regina is even remotely close to what we have been getting here the last 2 days going on 3 now, probably tomorrow too, this game is gonna be ugly to watch.

You still feel that way today? LOL! yup sure do. It was one game. I wasn't the only one who felt that way btw.

Took a 6 win team with a league record for roster turnover then the Guelph thing and took them to Grey Cup. Dont have to love him but give him a peck on the cheek at least. Not taking anything away from austin but... calvillo out all year pretty much, ray missed significant time, winnipeg sucked. not really much competition from the east last season.

we traded kito poblah for him, i mean really. a backup to a backup receiver. Tells you all you need to know really.

Kevin Glenn to a T indeed. When the game is on the line, he throws an interception. That's what he's done his whole career, not sure why people say its one game, yeah its one game this season so far, but many many other games has ended up the same whether it was in winnipeg hamilton even calgary for glenn.

eklund right there and that guy is always wrong, those rumours are total and pure BS.

oh well, is this really that big of a deal? lets be honest, the guy looked turrible in the pre-season when he got in, looked slow, looked like he could care less actually... just cuz he went on twitter and "tweeted" a few things doesn't mean he's a leader, as a matter of fact, i'd suggest the reason he will be cut/traded/released is because he's not being the leader they expected him to be. And if he aint bringing that veteran leadership, then why keep him around when its apparent he's not good enough any more.

Pretty boring dull game. Not much happening at all. Smith looks horrible but BLM don't look much better.

Bob just said it best, McKenzie.. the most unpredictable draft in recent history became predictable. every player selected tonight was in the TOP 40. No big trades, meh to the neal trade, that's not a trade that i'd call a big deal, i was thinking spezza, buff, even kane to be dealt. Guess theres always tomorrow.

Has to be attitude related, maybe no the leader they thought he would be? No idea.

Jets very very thin on the left side, ehlers immediately becomes their number 1 lw prospect, their other is blomqvist who wasn't even drafted... I like this pick, Kids got speed to burn and is very good defensively, put on a little weight and he'll be good. The danish drouin they say.

we already have paul stastny, his name is bryan little. Jussi? Olli? and Glass? Damn, let's start the parade...

MINOR trade..once again involving the canucks Vancouver Canucks ‏@VanCanucks 1m #Canucks acquire RW Derek Dorsett from NYR for 85th pick in this year's draft.

Yup. next year the jets will have yet another pick in the 7 to 9 range. Awesome, can't wait.

let the speculation beging. Buff and 9? kane and 9th? Some other team more than likely.

Buffalo has cap space however Buffalo is in rebuild mode too so to answer the question, outside of Buffalo and they won't cuz it makes no sense for them and doubt sedins would waive to go to buffalo, Nobody. Canucks stuck with the twins for now.

whenever i think about whats best in this situations, i ask myself, what if my girlfriend or sisters or parents were on this plane... I'm sure if you had family on the plane, you wouldn't want the search stopped, theres a human element at play here too, 250 or so people are presumed dead or missing, hell, it's not even for sure that it ended up in the ocean (its likely) but who really knows, nobody. The reality is this is just a huge guessing game for the people in charge, all these theories they come out with aren't based on fact, it's based on guessing. If a member of my family or loved one were on board, i'd want to know what happened and the only why i know that is when they "find the plane".

I think it's a good deal for the canucks, listen, when you are handcuffed by a player and his NMC, this aint that bad. Bonino is 4 years younger and had more goals than kelser did last season, Sbisa is an often injured still only 24 year old developing d man and the 24th pick? That's not so bad at all. Really, kesler submitted a list of like what? 2 3 4 teams he could be traded too, the canucks did good. Bonino will be a very good player for them. The irony of sorts is kesler was taken with the 23rd overall pick in his draft year, 23rd or 24th so if you are good at scouting, you could get a steal there.

Like him or not and i'll admit, i liked burke. I liked burke the DC.. i didn't like burke the head coach.. fact is and i'll take in to account reinbold had 2 seasons and burke only 1 and a half but Burke only had 1 more win than Jeff did. Burke was terrible, i'm sure there is some truth to what he said, i wish he would have come out and said something along the lines of "what did you expect me to do, my hands were tied, our GM refused to bring in players or make trades, was i a good head coach? no, some elements were out of my control though". I could actually live with that because from an outsiders perspective, that did seem to be the case last season. But he didn't say that... instead of throwing just one guy under the bus (mack) he basically threw the whole organization under and took no blame himself.

Burmi rumours all over hfboards right now. Saw it on twitter as well. Think Burmi probably does get moved, wouldn't expect much back, maybe a 2nd rounder at best.

Everyone of us have been wrong about players, we ain't the experts, we just fans. Even old sheldon from alberta is wrong at times
