Prior to the early 80's the CFL played 4 pre-season games plus an 18 game schedule.

I thought that they only played 16 games.  Maybe my memory is failing me.

Well Carolina was controlling the game until they just let it get away, again. Wow is Florida dangerous.

Wayne Gretzky - hid him from 1979 draft year because of personal contract service with PP.

Leon Draisaitl  - Third Overall pick in 2014 entry draft rewarded for losing.

Connor McDavid - First Overall pick in 2015 entry draft rewarded for losing.

Again, my jealousy and petty exaggerations has no bounds. 

If only Michael Gobuty knew how to play backgammon....argh....

Leon is great but I don't consider him a generational talen and I don't think anyone expected him to be as good as he's been. 

McDavid has been the promised one since he was a kid while some "experts" (like Button or McKenzie) had Leon rated 4th or lower in his draft year.   We're splitting hairs though - A++ vs A+ is still exceptional.

 

Florida now has 3 of the top 4 players taken in the 2014 draft.  What a draft year that was!  We took Ehlers (which was a great choice) but we could have had Pasternak! Dylan Larkin as well.  That's how deep that draft was.  As for Drai, I got to see him play here in Kelowna in 2015, when the Rockets mortgaged their future and made the trade for Drai and Morrissey for their Memorial Cup run that year.  I was surprised that Drai didn't go first overall.

So if I have it correct

@Booch is going to pull a Tonya Harding on Kolo, so we can get Eli at C.

@wbbfan will do the same to K.Wilson, so that Ayers doesn't get cut.

 

So who is taking out Jake?

 

A gift card to Foody Goody?

Difference is Walters and O'Shea are patriots and have no problem playing 9-10 Canadians.

Let's just go 100% Canadian already, would just make roster management so much easier.

I don't think it's anything about butting heads. He was excused for family reasons, though I am wondering if he is going to be up here with us this year or at all now too. 

Upper thorax family reasons....

Funny thing about the complaining about kick returns as some kind of franchise curse is we have the most total return TD's and fewest return TD's scored on us among CFL teams in the past 10 CFL seasons.

With a moniker like that, I for damn sure thought hes French ....he looked good out there.

Be even cooler if he went to Laval... 

listening to the game on CJOB right now, only option as CFL.ca won't even open.  The entire site has crashed.

oh man this league just can never get their crap figured out - this is 2025 not 2005, online live streaming isn't that hard to figure out.

I can't even get on the CFL website right now - Error 503 Backend is unhealthy

yeah nothing loading on the CFL+ browser for me out here in BC

Curious as to who and how we ise the linebackers....I dont think either of T.Jones or Wilson should be secure with being handed starter spots....and wanna see whatrecievers step ip when lights are on...Practice isnt best indicator as to who is the best...we seen that pretty obviously last yr

Punter too....I wanna see Evans make a case to punt our punter guy

A curious thing.... At last check, Jarious Jackson still hadn't made it to camp. So it's all on Hogan, with no safety net. Hoping things go well for him.

That doesn't quite make sense considering the Leafs won the cup in 1967

there were only two series in the 1967 playoffs

There were three series in 1932:

By all means. Just know that he probably didn’t care. 

which was my point.

We are just going in circles now.

My point is Thompson is really just owner in name only. He really has no say and rarely to never show up. Your original post was shitting on a guy who prob doesn’t know there was a game 6. 

Yes I was and am still pooping on him.

Right.and I’m saying Thompson doesn’t care. The jets are a write off to him. He’s around maybe 5 times a season. But Scheifele declined as he lives in Winnipeg year round. His gf is here. He came here then went. 

I don't get what your point is.

Stars owner is actually Canadian. 
 

On this episode, the boys are joined by Dallas Stars owner Tom Gaglardi. With a net worth of approximately $3.92 billion(sheesh), he's one of the richest people in Canada, yet down to earth and loves to talk hockey as much as we do

chipman don’t have a plane. Thompson probably don’t know Scheifele exists. 

I was talking about David Thomson.
