If we paid Nyquist 3.25m surely we can pay Laine the same

https://globalnews.ca/news/11798686/nhl-draft-lottery-positioning-winnipeg-jets-season-finish/ Interesting article. Some hope for a high pick for sure.

I wasn't expecting any team to lose a draft choice or to go over the SMS by any significant amount or at all. OTOH it would be interesting to see the results and compare the SMS spend to the standings. The problem is we only see overages. Even that isn't a direct relationship to season ending roster. Money left could be spent re-signing players and that could include and overage I'd like to see what each team spent after final game and then amount spent in December before free agency.

You sure? Nyquist has set a pretty high bar at one goal.

Emergency aka jets don’t have enough “healthy” Bodies on the main roster. I’d suspect a few vets “injuries” are acting up. 55 81 gabe cole will all play. JT will play cuz bonus money but is there really a need for names Nino and Nyquist ? Nope. There isn’t. Give Yager and Chibrikov some much needed big league reps.

Jets should consider it. Seriously. 1 year 1 million. His best years were here. Couldn’t be worse than Nyquist

Jonathan Quick done

I wonder what it would take to get Edmontons pick or if it’s worth to trade with Ottawa to get the Winnipeg born center if he’s not in an nfl camp (he will be)

Even still Stegall was in the NFL for a bit...so was deemed good enough there for a bit Every new player really comes up as a nobody for the most part...some with shining college stats...some with rather plain and unassuming stats...it's all about the opportunity present when they get here, and a coaching staffs ability to see it...or see something in a player and squeeze the most out of them and get them in a position to succedd....if you have talent and ability....teams will see it Interesting in regards to Bruce he came up here basically with experience in college as mainly a RB and not a receiver but our staff at the time saw in him the talent and gave him the chance at receiver as there was no chance in him unseating Roberts, and we also had Blount and Mills ....and that turned out pretty well for us. You don't let high ability talent walk out the door just cause it doesn't fit your ratio or established stars in prime are in the way....good evaluators will find a way...we have a hard time doing that here of late

Intelligent people assume....wouldn't put it past the CFL to announce cap penalties after the draft or something stupid. Can't waste anytime when there are 55 yard lines to remove from fields.

So much talent, so much disappointment. Someone will grab him on an incentive-loaded contract.

Emergency? Like performing CPR on a zombie?

SNL will have a new Canadian home next year https://deadline.com/2026/04/saturday-night-live-canada-crave-ctv-heated-rivalry-1236786439/ And ABC has renewed The Rookie and Will Trent (now the former has gone on longer than Castle) Okay I know it's a prequel but I thought the family friend was Isaiah Edwards (you better believe I was disappointed to not hear an ish of the old theme song in there) https://deadline.com/gallery/little-house-on-the-prairie-season-1-teaser-trailer-photos-netflix/

Who in the CFL deemed Milt not good enough or are you refering to the NFL?

Here's Hull scoring in the 1990 grey cup (1:15)

He was the Indianapolis Colts receivers coach in 2016 when TY Hilton led the league in receiving yards

If I’m not mistaken looks like dude may have coached with or been a member of Mike Kelly’s staff a few times in the USA there. I don’t remember him at all but doesn’t sound like a terrible hire at all. He’s no Jake Thomas but guess he’ll have to do. I’m guessing that’s it for the staff now.

In reality id prob have traded Laine at that draft and got a couple other picks… maybe NJ works. They had a few picks that draft. Laine to NJ for player pick 8 and pick 17. Then take Perfetti at 8 or 7, whichever pick they took holtz with, Jarvis with our pick and Braden Schneider at 17 since we going back in time here. Yet last year Perfetti scored the goal with 1.5 seconds to go to tie it. Honestly. I also wouldn’t have signed Toews or if I did he’d have to start with the Moose cuz whoever played with Toews early, they got butt ******. Perfetti played with him. Him and Nyquist. Yup. Imagine thinking Perfetti was the problem.

CFL.caBombers name Lee Hull receivers coach - CFL.caThe Winnipeg Blue Bombers have hired Lee Hull as receivers coach, the team announced on Monday.

Reality. Currently it’s a top 10 Pick. 9th overall. What’s wrong with Perfetti. When he’s not injured or playing with a dude who didn’t play hockey in 2 years he was good. lol Acting like you heard of Seth Jarvis or acting like Perfetti wasn’t projected to go in the top 10 is ridiculous, Perfetti was a better prospect. Both drafted as center. Both wingers. One plays with this dude named Aho and the other with a washed up Toews. Put Jarvis with Toews and you’d say should have took Perfetti. If we took Jarvis we probably don’t have Vilardi or Perfetti or Iafallo. Cuz Jarvis if same projection playing with 55, since 55 is comparable to Aho. Bet Perfetti looks 10x better if he played with our franchise center also.

Milt stegall was deemed not good enough a long time ago. AB3 was a nobody. Pokey had wouldn’t say character issues but we will call it character issues. Schoen was a superstar from game 1 really. You never know. Personally i like the former raven receiver the best of all the new receiver signings and he signed early. Dudes got skills and is young.

that stings as he should have taken jarvis

Brutal Truth: Jets cannot even fail successfully. Coming up: mid-round pick, mid-round finish. We do not need another Cole Perfetti.
