Yikes. He is going to be 39 at the end of this deal.

Interesting read about the CFL in Canada. Even more interesting is that SportsNet published it. http://www.sportsnet.ca/football/cfl/cfl-integral-canadas-sporting-identity/

10 game home stand right after the all star break and pretty much the whole month of February.

Apparently it is Ryan Strome

Locking this thread to move the discussion here

I don't think Toby waives without the Jets telling him that they would make a deal for him not to be picked. This deal is really to keep Lowry / Perreault / Armia. I suspect they would have been fine with losing Dano, but with moving down 11 spots, they got Vegas to take no players from them. Chevy might have underestimated Vegas' interest in Enstrom.

Thorbs is a UFA. He was going somewhere else if anyone would sign him next year anyway. No guarantee Vegas even signs him.

That sucks. We lose Thorbs! What? Can't wait to see what the larger trade is.

So we only get part of the picture tonight.

There isn't a straight answer on this. They had an ex GM or agent or whatever on TSN 1290 to answer this question last night. When a player waives, he has the option of waiving all together (removing it from the contract), or waiving it only for the one transaction. It isn't clear which way Toby went. So, if Toby only waived to go to Vegas, and it sticks with the contract, this may be a reason they don't pick him as he would then have to waive again if they wanted to trade him at the deadline.

He will be 41 at the start of next season. How many more contracts are they supposed to give him?

http://3downnation.com/2017/06/19/slave-nate-behar-doesnt-sound-happy-esks-offer/ Behar not happy, says he is a slave. Edmonton has pulled their original offer of 77k off the table. Apparently league minimum is now on the table with the agent (Hardaway) trying to get him back up to 70k with bonuses. Having these rookies skip their first training camp is not helping anyone and probably hindering their career development. I'm wondering when these players will stop hiring Hardaway as their agent.

When you think that we didn't need to protect Morrissey, Ehlers, or Laine, Jets really lucked out with the timing of the expansion draft.

Not that surprising when Dano was a healthy scratch by the end of the season and Copp wasn't Third team to "give up" / trade / make Dano available in his short career Makes you wonder why

Yep. I can see how people vote. Just like last year, starting in Week 2, I will publish a spreadsheet that will get updated each week after the deadline. So you can see week to week how people voted, where you are in the standings, and even confirm I entered your picks correctly (click on the games link at the bottom of the spreadsheet) . Here is what it looked like last year.
