    I will puke if it's Pavelec over Hellebuyck. 
    I could see Morrisey over Stuart...

    One other quick thought - if the Jets do draft Laine (or Puj) they may want to hire Teemu as a temporary consultant to help either kid acclimatize to Winnipeg.  When Teemu came to Winnipeg he was already 22 years old, while either of these two guys will only be 18.  You do a lot of growing up during those 4 years.  Teemu figured out pretty quickly how special the Jets are to Winnipeg, and he also knew that if he gave the fans a bit of love he'd get it back 100 times over.  These kids are not going to show up being Teemu in terms of personality.  They are still just kids.  They will have a lot of growing up to do, and Selanne may be a good guy to have around for awhile during that process, as he has lived it himself.  Just a thought.  Kind of like how Sidney Crosby and Fleury lived at Mario Lemeuix's house their first year or two in the league, while he mentored them and showed them the ropes.

    We don't need a centre...Schiefele, Little, Lowry and Copp are good. We need a guy like Laine to be a second line scoring threat on the wing.

    Love it if Laine gets rookie of the year while Matthews crumples under the pressure of being under a microscope in TO.  The fans there might expect the Leafs to win a game this year

    Like the NFL Draft. Goff or Wentz? Here in the NHL you have Matthews or Laine. Not a bad feeling to be #2.  in either league

    Ah, tis a fine, fine day to be a Jets fan...  Nice to see the Oilers fall to #4 out of The Big Three. I don't hate the Oilers players or fans. I just hate how they've become this entitled organization that fails every year despite high, high draft picks. The owner & people running & coaching that team should be embarrassed. I just feel bad for the fans. You know 2016-17 will be as miserable as the years before despite moving into a brand new building.

    HOLY CRAP!!!!!!!!!!! That's all I can say ... with Conner in all likelihood joining the big club next year and the 2nd draft pick probably as well we get TWO franchise changers coming in at the same time! Sorry I started that tanking thread

    Too much? Months and months of piddly information and now we get some, and it's too much? I get that you may not like his style, but just weed through the yardage and pull out the good stuff. For example:
    l liked the fact that this mini camp was the result of months of planning..I didn't know that.
    A play that was designed by Lapo..and he's excited about it. Looking forward to it. Again, who knew?
    It has been reported that players love the non-stop teaching by Lapo. Would one of our posters been able to relay that info?
    Lapo speaks of the tempo that they want and the speed at which they want to do things. Much better than the walk up, whatever will be, will be attitude of previous offences. I want to hear that.
    I like the phrase - 3 days of installation. They feel they're more prepared than if they hadn't done it this way. They carded 105 plays. That's a lot.
    LaPolice has implemented a communication software program. He's given his views on Willy, Dressler and Smith. 
    This is exactly the kind of stuff I want to read about...especially because we can't see football yet.

    yes an INT is an INT. I'm not sure about your other comment, but I was only mentioning it as it wasn't a particularly great play on his part. Just being in the right spot (which is obviously important).

    I like this type of camp for a couple of reasons, get to see players up close and gets the newbies a chance to adjust to the field and learn the waggle.

    Demski's asking price will be decided by how he performs this year. Let's hope he's not utilized properly and comes at a reasonable price.

    I am thinking it's high time I did too.  Twenty-five years of free agency after never being signed in the first place is enough, I have to start to accept reality.
