I'm really interested in seeing how the two new corners do after last years carousel.

Pokey has a good catch radius, he's not very tall but he has long fingers

As the toddler that I am being a hater of the Knights and Gary Bettman, I'm thinking if the roles had been reversed where the Oilers were heading into the championship round and were blocking the Knights from interviewing a coach they had fired near the end of the season, Gary Bettman would not carry over that support to the Oilers as he's currently doing with the Knights. Legally yes the Knights are well within their rights but what a prick move to get in the way of someone trying to seek employment after being released. Distraction as a rationale? Major eye roll, how on earth would that be a distraction to them cuz if it is they are focussing on the wrong things. Canes in five please and thank you.

Especially when he has to hit a pin head because we have no one who can go get it. That's been the biggest issue along with protection. Why we are leaning into it, I don't know.

This. Lots around the city, just depends on where you are.

Demski

that was one the reasons I wouldnt have been sad to see him go...Personal bias over the betterment of team To not use a rue to actually make yourself better is just dumb...Start an inferior Canadian player just cause...smh well...personally I think its stupidity and a combination of stubborn osh who was one the main advocates against the Nationalization of an American, and his belief and trust in what he thinks are big intangibles/likes in a player superseding the actual better or smarter choice. At least this yr...well for this chart there is only 1 instance of it...and if Demski/White/Pokey and Neild stay clean...and do what they should...along with BO we can ignore that wide side WR and just send them on go routes and deep posts to drag a defender away from our playmakers

They'll be missing Orimolade and Hutchings from their d-line too.

Step right up Bralon Addison

Relevant to our game tomorrow: Reggie Begelton and Rene Paredes start the season on the 6 Game...

Tim White can still stretch the field, as can Wilson. Also, i dont think Collaros has the arm anymore to launch it deep on a regular basis like he used to.

So, is the Shane Doan possible hire gaining traction or was it just someone's wild imagination on social media? I wish Chevy would retire cuz he'll never be fired. #jobforlife.

I don't mind either of those guys as a piece in our receiving corps. But I anticipate again that lack of a true catch radius type vertical threat impacting us greatly. Our offense has never really functioned without 1-2 of those guys in this era, the style Collaros plays, the ball won't be coming out quick. Nield is a big guy but doesn't have a ton of range, especially as a 3-4 option where the D isn't going to lose track of him. We're going to really have to spring guys wide open for the vertical passing game to take shape when they are all 5'10.

So what’s their rationalization on being lean in depth on O? Or do they believe depth on O is where it needs to be at this juncture of the season?

Gotta love how Osh is so against using a freaking rule properly to make our team better. He's actually come out and said so. Drives me nuts.

I hope our remade O Line opens some holes for Brady...Big dif maker right there...Get behind Broxton and blow these cowboys up.....

They have to have 8 no? Unless god forbid they use the nationalized American rule?

Could, but ELi isn't close to 100% ready. I think being the 6th is the most he's ready for given his recovery from injury and lack of PT. Take his STs soldiers from MOs' cold dead hands. For game 1, I don't think we have a better option at C. I think Eli is pretty well short of being 100%. When he's at 100%, right now Id say Elsbury might be better in pass pro, but I didn't love what I saw from him in run blocking. He has elite tools, though, and he was here for part of last year, so he shouldn't be rookie green. He should be able to execute Marty's schemes. That will be the big litmus test for week 1. How the OL plays, especially if we are able to establish the run. IF we can get the run game going to a point where we aren't holding back Brady, it won't matter who the worst WR on the field is. Zach has a few targets in Demski, Wilson, and White who he is very comfortable with. A strong running game, good OL and those targets will bring a massive improvement with a proper OC. Yeah, it is, that's the MO here, though.

Pretty sure in the last 15 years the Jets lead all NHL teams in ex-players who went on to win cups. Oduya, Hainsey, Bogosian, Schmidt, Kulikov, Stenlund & Coghlan/Ehler. Think I’m leaving out a couple more.

excited for what JY has to work with this yr...I can see them being a good take away unit and providing somescores too...may need it looking at that offence If he is he needs to be like really....reeeeally better to justify the ratio implications...and didn't see that by any stretch. Also he's gonna see fronts and looks he has never seen...under the pressure of live bullets..is he gonna have the ability to make the proper blocking calls? Vet's can be fooled, so an rookie...An American at that is prime for the pickens....One bad blown call and ZC could be done for the yr Is a marginally better import giving us a better over all roster than a National...with the ripple effect across roster...heck no....Guess we shall see tho...HOpefully it's a matter ELI isnt 100 percent, as him at center gives us a better overall roster

Adding Tim White and a full year of Ontaria Wilson makes our offense miles better than last years. Not to mention the addition by subtraction of Kolankowski.

Does any of our brain trust realize how limiting it is to have a lack of playmakers on offense in any sport?
