    As far as I know (based only on what I have seen in the past) if a goalie mask comes off they blow the play dead pretty much immediately, but that may be subject to “immediate scoring chance” which would have to be basically simultaneous given how quick the whistle is usually on that type of play. As for other equipment, any skater loses a blade, the play goes on, so probably the same for the goalie. But where another player breaks his stick and must drop it right away, goalies are allowed to play with a broken stick (presumably because they can’t go to the bench to retrieve one, and no other player can bring them a stick from the bench).  So there may be a different rule for goalies here too, but I am unaware of it if it exists.

    I'm thinking for this specific position where a goalie's skate blade comes off during play is different (safety issues etc) than the scenarios you present but hey I could be wrong and maybe it is tough luck.
    Regardless I have Pionk in my hockey pool, it helped the Jets win so it all worked out but I'm a curious guy by nature.

    My only question with big Stan is, will he play into his 40s? Seems like it at this rate. 
     Our ol needs improvement. But I’m a big believer in Richmond in the wings if needed. I think if we committed to Eli at C and Dobson at guard with gray as the 6th ol we’d be in great shape.

    Good to see that Connor will be back.  And great to hear that Judy Bowness is doing well.

    Yes, there’s definitely contact in practice, but guys are generally not trying to put each other through the boards.
    Really hope Ehlers can play tonight, for obvious reasons, but also because I hate the 11 - 7 lineup.

    Yeah don’t think they going all out against each other but in the past there have been fights amongst team mates at practice. Chiarot vs Wheeler was a thing.

    I’d like to see him get a shot… In the top 6.  It would likely only be a few games, so why not?

    some interesting stuff from Our Man Tait, and I highly encourage you to give him a click:

    Just a teaser for you that I think a few will have interesting:

     
    Had a great conversation with new Blue Bombers defensive coordinator Jordan Younger earlier this week. That story can be found here. Yours truly couldn’t cram everything from a 24-minute chat into that first piece, and one of the intriguing chunks not included was a discussion on how Younger puts his stamp on the Blue Bombers defence. That answer, it turns out, is both complicated and fascinating.
    “Let’s talk about blitzing, for example,” Younger said. “it’s not about whether there is more or less of that, it’s when you do it. Everybody’s doing similar things at the end of the day. You’re rushing four, you’re rushing five, you’re rushing six or rushing seven. Those are the options on the table. What makes each play caller unique is how well can you make coverages, systems and reads match up with what the offence is doing. We’ll try to be dynamic that way where we have tools built into the system so we can solve problems in real time and not necessarily have to wait until we review what was going on. That would be my goal.

    The DB’s name is Blue.  Good handle if he pans out…. Now go find a guy with Gold for a surname.

    Fair question. He was faster more than quick, and honestly had/has good athleticism for a wr. Athletically, as a mobile qb in the cfl I think he’s gonna be a beast. 
     Decision making, style of offence, and reading were in shambles with plops offence before he left. I think the time off will be beneficial. I think he needed the reset mentally. Even athletically he left with a broken ankle actually too.
     I think it’s much more of an issue at positions like de, line in general and ball handlers. 
    People put too much importance on qbing. But it does carry a lot of responsibility. But people hate on blink for kgs injury, turned on lawler for not keeping up his insane pace late in the season etc. if lawler Brady etc we’re QBs they’d a been run outta town long ago. 
    they do. Every position is heavily dependent on other positions. The team aspect of football is really under rated. Every great team requires soo much selfless play at various positions like what Demski and Bailey do for our off.
