  1. Can't wait to see Dubois back at center with Connor and Ehlers.
  2. Stanley definitely looked the rookie in that giveaway...yikes.
  3. McDavid and Dri playing together. Shut down that line (somewhat) and what else does Edmonton have?
  4. and we started Brossy and rested Scheif, Wheeler and Connor, and still won...lol
  5. That was beautiful. He made Marner and Rittich his you know whats on that play.
  6. any idea what he did to deserve that 10 minute penalty? Other than just being a general ******-bag we all expect him to be? Was he chirping the refs? Anyone know?
  7. The French Connection!
  8. Yes if I had to choose I would take a D man. Of course. But I do miss Laine's rocket of a shot.
  9. Just watching the Calgary/Winnipeg 1995 game, a few comments - at the 24 minute mark (ish) - Slack throws a pass to Stegall (incomplete). He takes a hellacious hit to the head from the Calgary player and goes down like a sack of potatoes, but then just gets up after collecting himself on the ground. Glad to see the game has moved to the point whereby hits like that are flagged etc. The play doesn't even warrant comment from Don and James Curry who just ignore the horrible hit to Slack's head, other than Curry talks about how CFL QB's get "worn down" by hits like that during a game (lol) and then Don talks about a young Milt Stegall who told the Bomber coaching staff after his debut game in Calgary the week before: "I am tired and I have a lot to learn". LOL 55:26 - trademark Whitman calling Baker on a big punt run back - "look out!!!" 1:34:25 - history is made - Milt's first CFL touchdown. And Whitman calls it - "intended for Stegall deep...he's got it!!!" 1:45:25 - Milt's second TD. He already is showing flashes of being something really special. Reggie Slack had a weird wind up but he seemed to have a lot of tools, including really good scrambling ability. If I am ever near Navarre Florida I will try and visit his pizza restaurant, if it survived COVID.
  10. I miss Don Wittman so much. He was the voice of so many classic Jets and Bomber games from the 80's and 90's...
  11. I wonder if those two (Liut and Scott) are still sticking to that story. Laine sure drove me nuts sometimes but I do miss that guy's goal scoring. We sure could have used him in that shoot-out against TO the other night...
  12. imagine having a crystal ball and Chevy drafting Dubois over Laine in 2016. He might have gotten fired for it but here we are...
  13. Speaking of taglines for pornos...lol
  14. Sweet hands, sometimes this guy could just defy the laws of physics...
  15. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9407441/Author-reveals-startling-new-theory-missing-Malaysia-Airlines-MH370-jet.html
  16. One positive though, we know neither of those guys hit anyone....
  17. Our biggest advantage against Vancouver? Connor McDavid plays for Edmonton...
  18. Bieksa gave Stanley a shout-out on Saturday. As much as I have little respect for Kevin Bieksa, it was nice for the youngster to get recognized. I think Stanley has to stay in the line-up. He is only going to get better the more that he plays, and given the dumpster fires that Beaulieu and DeMelo have been this year he's not exactly out of place or making a ton of mistakes you would expect of a kid that age. Just my two cents anyway.
  19. Harkins for Dubois? lol
  20. Evander Kane files motion claiming lenders wishes violate 13th Amendment - The Athletic
  21. What team would be? Seriously. Edmonton with McDavid or Toronto with Matthews?
  22. I would love to see an interview with McDavid between periods with a similar frightened deer in headlights look that Dane Evans had at half time in the Grey Cup.
  23. Also - watching that goal by Ehlers, good thing that he scored instead of hitting Price and having a big rebound, as Montreal would have been off on a 2-0 the other way. Not sure why both Dubois and Connor went to the net - one guy should hang back at least a little bit in that situation, no? Anyway, I know I'm nit-picking here. 3 on 3 is fun hockey, that's for sure. No team seems to really play very smart, especially if you have 3 forwards out there. LOL
  24. Glad that Nickolage scored there but his laziness coming back nearly cost us the game 15 seconds prior to his goal. Just coasting back leaving Petry all alone and forcing Helle to make a circus save to salvage the point. I don't know who told KConn and Ehlers that they don't have to play defense this year but they need to start playing like this is the NHL and not Friday night beer league when it comes to a two-way game.
