    What does this even mean? What is the difference between him signing with someone tomorrow vs 2 weeks ago? Or 2 weeks from now? None. Maybe he's considering retirement. Maybe someone is his family is getting tested for a health issue, and the answer would be the deciding factor as to whether he plays close to home or not. Maybe he's spending two weeks on the beach before the season starts. Maybe as a Christian he has decided to spend a few weeks praying. Or all of the above. Or none. This age of instant information has created a weird atmosphere of entitlement. There are a lot of people here who have zero information and choose to fill in those blanks by thinking he's being a Richard. Why? The only thing I've ever heard him publicly say about his free agency was his "working on it" comment on twitter, which was simply a non-response to a fan question. Those who prefer to fill in the blanks that way are saying volumes more about their character. As for his value, he is an undisputed starter-caliber Canadian playing at a non-traditional position. For the teams wanting Muamba's services, there is no "blue-chip" player that will negatively affect his value. Until he proves it on the field, every blue-chip player is just the next Duane Slay or Aaron Maybin. Maybe Jevaris Jones is going to be a 2018 CFL all-star. For now he is nothing but another name, maybe the first cut in rookie camp. Whomever doesn't sign Muamba will be forced to use that guy. The only way they are choosing to use that guy is once they can't afford Muamba. That guy will have zero impact on how much Muamba gets paid.

  5. I am of the firm belief that with Henoc we have a legitimate shot this year. Get it done Kyle.

  9. Every OT is the same story over and over... Maurice leaves Buff out there way too long, he gets tired, starts making dumb decisions and we lose. Did Morrissey even see the ice in OT?

  10. With respect to term, it could be CBA related. There were quite a few players who signed 1 year deals for this season because of the CBA expiring next off-season.

  12. Privacy laws have evolved so much in the last 10 - 15 years, I don’t think this is something government run lotteries can keep mandating long term. Especially when you see evidence that harm can and does happen to winners If the public trust is really at risk, you hire 3rd party auditors to make sure everything is above board and publish those results. The real problem lotteries have with this is that smiling faces with big cardboard cheques are better for advertising.

    Those might be comments that have to be made. For contract negotiations, they probably work a lot better than: "Sign Henoc,? Oh hell yea, we have no worries. All the cap space room in the world!"

    /puke If he does draw it out near that long I imagine we would just pull out of the henoc sweepstakes. They arent gonna leave that much cap room un used in case he decides to play with a winning team instead of a dumpster fire.

    Muamba has always chased the money, this time will be no different. He's probably just delaying now to see if Kyle Walters will up the offer but I wouldn't hold my breath on that. So unless he decides that he really doesn't want to play in that train wreck....

  25. especially when Buff stays out for the entire 5 minutes. Then it's 2 on 3 and Buff puffing around the ice. He also looked pretty bad on that second Ovie goal. He just lay there while Ovie fired it into the net, on the third try.

  28. Well, I think STILL being President a year+ after the election isnt really an accomplishment. Is that the measure of someone's success? lol It's true he's surpassed James Garfield and William Harrison but they both died. But I guess its something!

  29. Helle was unbelievable. Jets are just decimated right now. Likely a trouncing coming tonight but if they can play tight and escape with a point Ill be happy. Need to get healed up. The fact Kulikov is in Winnipeg being evaluated concerns me

  31. While we don't have a great O/T record, I'm not worried about it. There is no 3 on 3 format in the playoffs, so I wouldn't use much practise time on it.

    https://www.mercurynews.com/2018/03/10/racism-winnipeg-and-why-the-sharks-are-a-good-fit-for-evander-kane/ Reading the article from the link on the twitter feed to the right.... My eyes could not stop rolling. Apparently Winnipeg is super racist... yet no mention about how culturally diverse our city is and how Dustin Byfuglien has had zero issues and is beloved by the city. Article glosses over Kane's off ice issues and says his NBA attitude is just misunderstood and nothing at all about him being a selfish bad team mate. I really can't wait until he wears out his welcome in yet another city.
