Put the rest of the team in chryo sleep for the entire 4 Nations tournament so they are rested and ready to go all the way to June.

How far we've come since 1981. LOL

shout out to the rook on his snipe!

wow - I wonder how many here get the reference in the thread title....I won't spoil it yet but I have to admit I had to go back into the memory banks about 35 years lol....here's a hint - "Synchronize Swatches!!"

yeah when you score 5 goals instead of 1, your chances of winning increase exponentially.

Jets GM stands up for Stanley – Winnipeg Free Press

Yes we need our annual one win....

it was like they forgot to skate for the first two and half periods and they were in Salt Lake so can't even blame a late night booze fest...what a joke.

That was Samberg that screwed the pooch on that one.

Bombers re-sign team's longest-serving player, Jake Thomas

Iafallo and Kupari have really stepped up their game recently. All it took was being given some more ice time.

Am I the only one who thinks that we haven't really missed Apples at all?

Two years in a row now they've gone with zero scoring power up front. The last time they fielded a team that had any chance of winning was the Connor Bedard year.

Sounds like that kid (Walton) should have been on the World Junior team. Maybe next year?

Jets’ Kieron Walton is one of the most improved NHL prospects in 2024-25

Oh man Stanley, that was brutal.

Tom Clements stepping down as Packers' QBs coach after working with Favre, Rodgers and Love

Crap...another OT loss on a dumb change...

Exactly, and yet all that money, all that training, and we get our ass kicked by Latvia and Czechia.

When they show the parents in the stands at the World Juniors cheering on their kid I always feel happy for those families that their son is playing for Canada, but I have to wonder as to how much that also fuels all the tens of thousands of other parents watching on TV and thinking "If I just spend another $10k on a private coach and another $40k on another year at that Hockey Academy then that's going to be me and my wife one day on TV"....

yes it's kind of a thing I see with hockey parents I know too - "If I don't buy the latest and greatest knee pads and all the other kids have them then my boy isn't going to make the NHL!!" - every tiny possible thing is now a competition - have to keep up. It's like all of these "cling ons" I call them, people who run these apps that for a large fee will post video of your kid that they promise they will show to scouts - the margins now are so small between most players that any little advantage may be the difference between getting drafted or getting an offer to a US scholarship, or so they are told and so they think. The money these parents are spending is just insane, I have to think a lot of them don't have much if any retirement savings as all disposable income is going into funding the hockey dreams of their children.
