Toews to Keith - Waive your NMC, you're hurting the team Keith to Toews - You're making too much money, you're hurting the team But in reality it probably went this way... Toews to Keith - Better taste! Keith to Toews - Less filling! Edited January 21, 2020 by FrostyWinnipeg kelownabomberfan 1

JCon Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 40 minutes ago, The Unknown Poster said: Okay who’s got a sub and can tell us what he wrote about the Jets...? Winnipeg Jets Oh man, losing top defensive centre Adam Lowry for a month hurts for a Jets team that has tried so hard to hang in the fight despite a depleted blue line made worse by Dustin Byfuglien’s shocking training camp decision. That Byfuglien situation still looms large, of course. His $7.6-million cap hit is off the books while he remains suspended. The Jets will need clarity on that before Feb. 24 if they can make any impactful move. There’s no question in my mind that between the Lowry and Bryan Little injuries up front and the blue line issues, that Jets GM Kevin Cheveldayoff will look at all options on the market to try to help his team in both areas if he can. I think he wants to reward his group for the kind of effort it has put out to make this a season that could result in a playoff berth even if they went into the break wobbling and looking fried. If Little comes back at some point over the next month (he is skating but there is no firm timeline yet) the more pressing need would be on D. The Jets have their top three picks in the June draft so the full arsenal in terms of the kind of assets sellers look for at this time of year. But Winnipeg also has to stay in the race, the next 2-3 weeks looms large in indicating just that.

The way they have been playing lately, lottery pick he we come, sell all the deadwood for whatever you can get, resolve the Buff drama, hire a new coaching staff, retool the D and lets get to camp
MrFreakzilla Posted January 25, 2020 Report Posted January 25, 2020 (edited) To free up cap space we shouldn't even bother to dress a 4th line. Just keep playing Conner and company 26 minutes plus every game. Edited January 25, 2020 by MrFreakzilla Edit

Last year, I think the deal was around $19 for the entire year. I'm sure you saw the $24.48 deal on right now? Still on sale from Cyber Monday. They have a lot of very good writers but I'm not sure how long the model will be sustained.

I've had a subscription for a couple of years now. The writing is top notch. As far as sustainability, there was some recent news on its capital/financial situation: https://www.axios.com/the-athletic-fundraising-round-series-d-e7026194-ccc7-4ec2-8415-6b8902c9a11a.html Quote The Athletic, a subscription-based digital sports media company, has raised $50 million in a Series D funding round, executives tell Axios. With this investment, the company has raised a total of $139.5 million since its launch in 2016 and is valued at roughly $500 million after the new raise, according to sources familiar with the deal. To date, they are still losing money, but apparently they expect that to turn to profit in the current year: Quote By the numbers: The company expects to become profitable in 2020 and says it will soon hit a million subscribers worldwide, according to The Athletic co-founder Adam Hansmann I go mainly for the NHL coverage, but there is a bit of CFL coverage as well. All the other major sports are covered extensively. The Unknown Poster and JCon 2
