When I was down in New Orleans a few weeks ago I was wearing one of my many Jets shirts and a Coyotes fan stopped me on the street to yak hockey. He seemed to be a bit in the know with the team and said that there was a lot of truth to the Coyotes going hard after Matthews as the cache of having a Scottsdale boy on the team would be huge for the local fan base. I pointed out that Tkachuk was also a Scottsdale kid and the son of a former player but that didn't seem to register. The Coyote fan base has tunnel-vision on Matthews right now. I would expect they make a play for #1 over-all once the draft order is decided.

The bottom line is looking good, despite the product on the field. They've bought themselves some time with these GC profits, now start winning guys. Time's up.

Looking forward to watching him in Penticton this fall. I hope the Jets don't pull an Oilers/McDavid and only dress him for one game. That would be crappy.

and stayed off the ice...

the team could live on frozen Buff burgers for quite awhile.

Chycrun.

he'd be a good option, but he would get mowed down by the same faction that took out Mulcair. Doer would make too much sense and try to move the NDP into the same space that Mulcair did, and when he fails like Mulcair did, he'll get knifed in the back too. The NDP has to sort out what it wants to be, a party representing union/labour or a party that wants to appeal to the enviros that want to kill all petroleum projects. They can't have it both ways.

Time to unload Pavs. Time for Hellsky and Hutch to take over the nets.

Mine, obviously.

that's 10 - 15 too many for those two. Just complete loons.

Avi Lewis?

Give Willy that extra steamboat he never had the past two years and he'll tear every defence in the league a new ass-hole.

Stupid Ehlers, Wheels and Schief!! Stop entertaining us with all of those highlight reel goals!!

man first he gets screwed by USA Hockey when they don't select him for the World Juniors and now this horse crap garbage. He's going to fit right in in Winnipeg now as he's already arriving with a big "We always get screwed by the man" chip on his shoulder...

I thought that award went to the Manliest Man in Michigan...

Man does Petan remind me of little Stewy Barnes.

That play Ehlers made last night where he knocked the puck down and then made a spin-o-rama around the D Man to go in on a scoring play, man that was a beauty. And he does plays like that every night. He just has to start scoring on some of those as they don't make the high-light reels unless he puts puck in net.

At this point I would be ecstatic if Winnipeg got Matthews but if we can't have him, I'd like to see him go anywhere but Edmonton. Those guys have gotten enough first-round picks.

I honestly don't care about top 10 possession, and don't really know what that means. There is team dynamic and there is team dysfunction. This team is finally playing like a team, and scoring goals, something they couldn't do earlier in the year to save their lives. Five goals against the Sharks in San Jose???!! Are you kidding me??

beat me to it by 10 seconds...

I agree a lot with what you are saying, but there's something else too. Team chemistry and/or team dynamic. I am almost thinking Ladd leaving had something to do with it.

who howns the Chiefs?

I thought the ref must be a Jets fan with that BS call on Tanev at the end there (helping us with the tank). I can't believe these kids, they are actually a pretty good team! Talk about speed! Every line is working and connecting. Really liking the late season emergence of Copp too. And Lowry is finally playing with some confidence. He was nailing guys all over the place. Got a good feeling about next season. This is not the same team I watched live on New Years Eve in Phoenix. That team had some dysfunctional stuff going on. This team is looking much more like a team. What has changed? I don't know.
