JCon

Said, no, to what? I would say the Jets are doing their due diligence, like any professional hockey team would. You need to determine what is available, at what cost. I would still say Elliott is their number one target. Cost-term-reality wise. But that's an opinion based on what's been reported.

I don't disagree with this. Are you calling the 3rd line the "checking" line here? If so, I agree. I could even see Perreault out there on the 3rd, with Connor taking his spot on the 2nd line. I believe the trio of Connor, Roslovic and Lemieux will all start with the Moose. There will be injuries that will give them opportunities during the season to play for the Jets. Maybe they take someone's spot, permanently.

I wonder if this will be the case? Aren't we moving to a dispose and replace society?

This is quite the study. Very robust and detailed from what I've heard and read. I would like to see this replicated in other markets to determine if it remains statistically significant. It's certainly has economists talking. McDonalds? Forget McDonalds. They're moving to automated systems. In one generation we're not going to have many of the low-wage jobs that we currently have. Like manufacturing, it will all be automated. We need to move past the idea that jobs are "coming back" to North America. They just don't need labour any longer.

Chris Jones is the coach/GM/equipment manager for the team in Saskatchewan. If Drew can blow up a safety, surely, he can blow up Jones.

Seems so bizarre to say this but... the Oilers are in trouble for if they sign McDavid to that contract. He's worth so much more but it's going to cripple them. Ah, the salary cap! The hope is that they can attract players for less just for the chance to play with McDavid.

Enjoy the new stadium. Have fun Saturday (before the game but not during or after).

I think they're looking for a partner for Buff. Yes, Enstrom works well with him but I think Enstrom/Myers works better. You need to find the right player but Chiarot has played well there in the past. Morrissey - Trouba ???? - Buff Enstrom - Myers Chiarot. I guess Kulikov fits.

You'll need to buy him a lot of beer to make up for the pain of being in Regina.

They'd only be screwing themselves.

Yes. It's worth listening to the interview Devin gave to TSN1290. Quite the insight into his time here. I'll dig it up later.

Glenn really lit up that weak Als D last week. Even with a quick release, he'll still have to run for his life, he'll still get hit and he'll still throw up some bad picks. In Moe we trust.

No. He's been quite open about his time here. He would leave the rink and head to the bar and score illicit drugs.

Fuhr was great when the game was on the line. He loved lines.

Lukas Sutter. Round 2 in 2012.

I'll take ol' 33, Harris.

Devin Setoguchi approves this message. Bogo gives a nod of support too! (allegedly)

Don't overact to what happens in the first week.

And Fuhr wouldn't let that sixth in. Somehow, he knew how to win by one.

BC Place Stadium is in the perfect place. Vancouver just isn't a great sports town. I remember, even when the GM Place was new(er), there were always plenty of tickets available for Canucks games. People will go downtown and you can get there relatively easily. Put it in Abbotsford and watch it die. Who the heck wants to drive to Abbotsford??

Just ridiculous the reviews.

Indeed. They seem to get one side right but cannot get all sides right at the same time.

This could be the best game of the week. I'm expecting the Stamps to walk all over the RedBlacks but I usually underestimate the RBs.

Hmmmm... LHD, with term, for a 1st round pick? Wonder where the Wild need to be in the 1st round to make this happen?

Good on Davis! Happy for him. I wonder who will do short yardage work?
