    Intereating breakdown of Salary. 12 million in signing bonuses throughout the deal.. Gets paid roughly 6 million a year but theres a 3 million, guess they expect a lockout. 

    Of course there'll be a lockout. Do you think Bettman & Fehr care about the fans? What will that be? Lockout #3, 4?? 

  3. The TV Thread

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Regatrding American Chopper's return. The Teutl's are one dysfunctional family. Paul Sr is a dictatorial asshat. Paul Jr wants a relationship with his father but Sr doesn't know how to have one. They both nearly killed one another. Mikey was a major .... up. Vinnie quit. Cody can't stand Paul Sr  So, what does a family like that really need? Why, another television series to finish the job. This promises to be a major dumpster fire but it should be entertaining.

    If you had told me before the season that the Jets would make it to the WCF, I would have been happy. I think what is really bugging me is that we lost to Vegas (a freaking expansion team). We've waited patiently as we drafted and developed and you get a first year club in the Finals. Plus add in the heartbreak we've experienced as fans (80s Oilers, losing the team, some bad hockey teams) and its just frustrating.

    That's how I feel exactly.

    I get 5th graders spouting this stuff because they hear it from their dad at home.

    1. The non - call when Sheifele's nose was bloodied up was definitely a blatant missed call.  But the same can be said for the non-call on the Buff trip today

    2. The Knights had 4 or 5 players back defensively on a consistent basis, the Jets usually had 3 or 4.  

    3. The Jets are a passing team that played dump and chase too much.  On a power play or with an empty net, a team of the Jets' calibre should be moving the puck in with crisp passes.  

    4. Fleurry didn't make the difference all by himself, nor did he steal any games, but he was superb

     

    Mark, you are absolutely wrong on #4. Fleury stole the series he was that good. He was the difference maker.

    Yea sour grapes teams that have waited and drafted with sad sack teams ....and a expansion team makes it in one year what other teams ( if they are lucky get in maybe 10 to 20? ) yea . Try looking at the facts before you make an idiotic statement. If Vegas wins the cup this league is like WWE a joke.

    These Vegas fans have no idea what other fanbases have gone through. The patience & heartbreak other fanbases have had to endure. They can't allow Seattle to be the same way when their expansion draft happens. I'm pissed the Jets lost but not because they lost the series... because they lost to Vegas. I can accept losing to any other team except the Knights. Give me a few days. I will accept it but I'll never like it.

    i was, but while that top tier of guys is no doubt better the depth we have now is un paralleled for this franchise. 

    😁 Yeah its un real. For soo long mlber and ni wr/sb has been a real weak spot for us. Now we are relatively stacked.  

     

    I have to go with KBF on this one. Rick House & Joe Pop starting slots. Backed up by Jerome Erdman, Randy Fabi & Kevin Neilles. That was a great group of receivers from the 1986 season. All those guys could play. Tremendous depth at Canadian receiver.

    Agree to disagree here.  Willy has experience... but all the chances he’s had with other teams since he was traded have only confirmed that he’s a shattered shell of the qb he used to be. IMHO, Bombers are better off having moved on.

    If Willy ever is released by the Als, I think he'd be picked up by the Stamps. Could never see him coming back here to back up Nichols but you never know. Stranger things have happened. He'd know the offense. 

  14. Darian Durant Retires

    Time to let this thread die.

    In the long run Durant has done the Bombers a favor. The remainder of his money may have been the difference in signing Bighill, and down the road Bombers will be further ahead if one of the rookie backups develops this year.

     

    Yeah, Darian did us a huge favour.

    Fleury has been better but in 2 games in Vegas Jets scored 4 goals so 2 a game.. Pretty tough to win 2 1 most nights

    We could have had another 7 or 8 goals the past 2 games but Fleury stoned us. Hellebuyck lets in a bad goal every game it seems that kills momentum. He can't do that. He has to play a lot better. Can he? I think he sees Fleury with his athletic antics across the ice & he knows that he can't. I hate to say this but it's like comparing a mannequin to Gumby. Hellebuyck looks stiff with nerves & not enjoying himself. Fleury is loosey goosey & having fun.
