NHL Trade Deadline
Just move a word, and viola! Buffalo was a perfect storm for that trade. They saw a couple of players they wanted, had a couple of pieces that fit our needs that they also needed to move, and would be able to take a bigger step towards guaranteeing the first overall pick while doing it. That's not going to happen again. The asking price for Vermette will be stupidly high, just like it always is for that type of player at this time of year, because there's always at least one team willing to pay it. Teams are trying to re-build using those players as chips, they aren't going to take our offer of the hockey equivalent of pocket lint. I have yet to see anything from Postma that doesn't suggest he'll play in the AHL for five more years before having a successful career in a European league. Every other defenceman who has graced our roster this year and last has shown me more than Postma. Redmond, Clitsome, Pardy, Chariot, Harrison, and even Ellerby. Any trade that happens involving Postma; he's going to be the Jason Kasdorf of the deal. A throw-in to help grease the wheels. If there was only 1 superstar available in the draft, EDM might move one of the big 3 but alas first/second picks are both good so they won';t do anything.

Hockey Players Dont Want To Play In These Cities....
Surprising that we NOT last.

Has to beat Ehlers to make lineup

NHL Sued by Patent Troll
Patent cases are hit or miss. Sometimes you're happy someone won and sometimes you're pissed off someone won. I remember someone owned madonna.com and had to give it up. Hey if they registered it first good on them.

NHL Trade Deadline
What;s the deal with this guy? Know nothing about him except he's 29, 6g17a in 55games and mysteriously has a great +/- on a not good team.

Game 59: Oiler @ Jets
I won't go as far to say Chariot better then Myers but I see Myers as #6 defensively. Playing with lil Toby just seems like a mistake.

Game 59: Oiler @ Jets
Whew!

Game 59: Oiler @ Jets
Give EDM credit though, unlike Buffalo they are not deliberately tanking to get the #1 pick and STILL have a chance at it.

Game 59: Oiler @ Jets
Thought he had it I would have dressed Pav though. If we lost, we could just blame Pav.

Game 59: Oiler @ Jets
Almost want to use the word "Deadmonton" but I know better as this team as a decent record against Jets v2.

NHL Trade Deadline
Santorelli was a killer in shoot-outs which says to me he's got talent. Maybe one of those guys who never made it to the top of the mtn.

Game 58 : Jets @ Red Wings
No hate me but I not like Myers so far. Great effort by team in 3rd. Completing hits, rushing every play. Ladd, Wheeler, Lowry... Amazing stat about Clutch in shootout.

Evander Kane & Bogo Traded to Buffalo
You would trade Frolik??? I don't get this....UFA's who don't sign before the tradeline deadline should be traded. IMHO. So you also believe that a team going into the playoffs should not sign rentals? Teams that think they got a good/great chance to win the cup will trade for players ala Jarome Iginla. I do not see the Jets at that level at the moment. Still lots of games before trade deadline so anything could happen.

Game 57 : Jets @ Preds
I just didn't think the Jets played that good. I'm pretty sure they were outhit and that's a pretty rare event to my eyes.
-
Game 58 : Jets @ Red Wings
Jets post-Kane/Bogo era hopes to get it's first win. When did Detroit get this good? Hutch to start.

2015 CFL Schedule
This is, without any doubt at all, the stupidest thing that's been done, in any way, in any sport, in my life. I agree. Of all places, why Fort McMurray?Probably sell more tickets there then Toronto, sadly. Nowhere else is available in Toronto at that time either as venues are being prepared for the Pan Am games.Fort Mac may be getting three games. Sask-Edm preseason game, Toronto-Edm regular season game and the possibility of a BC-Edmonton preseason game as BC PLace may not be available due to the Women's World Cup. That game could also be played in Victoria though, but nothing confirmed yet. No stadiums in Atlantic Canada? It'd be nice to increase the CFLs exposure there considering they're expected to get a team soon. Maybe its time to just start blaming the cities. QC/Halifax...build something already!

Ehlers Named CHL Player of the Week
Videos like that and the recent Jets trade makes me wonder if anyone on our 4th line now will be back next year.

Anyone still think we're going with Royal Blue Jerseys this season?
I thought the camouflage uni's worked out pretty well since I can not see anyone wearing them!

2015 CFL Schedule
Once again the same cities get the Labour Day game. Why should they get the cash cows? Grey Cup is the last week in Nov? Just screams brrrr. Last 2 here were earlier and warmer.

Pavs vs Hutch
3rd goal was a killer but Hutch has let in some softies this year too.
-
Game 57 : Jets @ Preds
Jets ran into one of the best goalies in the league tonight and lost. Did not see anything special about Stafford(or many of his teammates). Myers, tough to miss him. Damn bad luck with that shot to the leg. Was on for 2 goals I think but tough to blame for the 2nd one as he was injured and Pav should not have let that one in. Red Wings Saturday night. When did they get good?!?! Hutch to start.

Evander Kane & Bogo Traded to Buffalo
Stu had no chance in the peg but was pretty good elsewhere.

Game 57 : Jets @ Preds
I'm interested in this freak of a Dman as to whether he has a decent slap shot +/- worries me but at -15 that's only in the middle of all the Sabre players. Difference in height between him and Toby almost comical.
