The Trade Thread
I'm a really big fan of PS as 2C. As you've all suggested, cost is a big factor, but if they can make it work...he's sure a guy I'd love to have.

Free Agent Frenzy 2020
Hall's a great player. Not always the best attitude, but he definitely wants to win and is extremely talented. I read something yesterday that said Paul Stastny could end up back in Winnipeg...that is something I would REALLY love to see.

at just over 1-mil AAV, it's a good deal for both sides. He'll contribute and redeem himself as a legit NHLer...

The Lafreniere Draft Lottery
this would be exactly it, I think. This Swedish kid has the size and potential, but he was playing in the Swedish junior league, and not with the Men's club, which tells me that he's still a ways off the NHL. He'll definitely need some seasoning...

The RIP 2020 Thread
I'm not a huge rock guy by any means, and VH heyday was a bit before my time, but man, they had some songs. "Jump" will always equate to the Winnipeg Jets in my mind, and Panama....that scene in Superbad where Hader and Rogen (as the cops) are drunk and smashing up the cop car.....just one and the same, to me. A legendary group, no question.

I still think there's a chance Laine gets dealt, but it sure feels like Chevy is not doing this unless he's getting the monstrous return that we all agree he SHOULD be getting for Laine. Chevy is refusing to take less than Laine's worth, thank goodness.

I think they'll play a full season, or close to it.... but it'll carry well into next summer.

Jan 1 as a target date, means we're likely going to be later than that, which sucks. I'm sure they're hoping that the longer they push it back, the better odds of being able to have fans in the stands, but we're still a LONG way from that (at least in the sane part of North America) so just figure out a "no fans" or "extremely limited fans" approach way of doing things...

trying to filter through this entire gong show of a post...... but TSN radio has shown, as with CFL, they don't need the broadcast rights to create good radio. They'll do the same thing as football and have a Pre-game, Intermission, and Post-game broadcast and do just fine. They're absolutely not flipping formats.

that option won't be available this year, I'd imagine. I'm betting on a new crew for radio. As others have mentioned, I'm also not a fan of Edmonds. Great guy, I have no doubt, just not a fan of his PBP. The guttoral yelling is not a style I enjoy....

I'm such a CJOB nerd, I'm ecstatic for Kelly and the rest of the team over there. They'll never "degrade" the Bombers. Everything will fit, otherwise they wouldn't have made this move. Curious to see if they bring over the current radio PBP team (I'm not overly a fan of them) or use their own people. Kelly is a great hockey PBP but not sure he wants to be away from home as much as it would require. Likely have someone younger do it, I'd bet. Lots of options at any rate.

Around The NHL 2019/2020
From Bruce Garrioch at Ottawa Sun: AROUND THE BOARDS An interesting team to watch on the Patrik Laine front may be the Philadelphia Flyers and the talk is they’re making an aggressive push. They have the ability to make the deal if they can find the right fit with the Jets. A league executive speculated Sunday the Flyers would probably want to see if there’s a fit in Winnipeg for defenceman Shayne Gostisbehere. He has three years left with a cap hit of $4.5 million per season, but the Jets could also look to get a second-line centre in return. The Jackets and Montreal Canadiens are both believed to have made pitches for Laine, 22, who has 138 goals and 247 points in 305 games. You have to think find a fit with the Habs the Jets would want Phillip Danault in return. The Sabres, Wings, Rangers, Wild and Panthers all have interest … The Jets are trying to get defenceman Dylan DeMelo signed, but there still a sizeable gap to bridge if that’s going to happen. DeMelo was dealt to Winnipeg by the Senators at the February deadllne and has a chance to cash in.

2020-21 NFL Discussion Thread
I had thought the same thing about MLB when they had massive outbreaks in the first week. Everyone was saying they won't last. This will get completely shut down. But they found a way.... And I'm sure NFL will too. There's just way too much money at stake.

BlueBombers.com Handled Internally Podcast
So, for anyone who may have missed it, the Bombers have been doing a podcast. It's mostly Darren Cameron hosting with a bit of contribution from our man Tait, and then they have a guest each time. It WAS only available to subscribers but they've now put them up on Spotify and iTunes for free. No spoilers, but man... Do yourself a favour and give them a listen. The Doug Brown one is outstanding. So good.

Due to the high number of crazy people here, Alberta's CMO, Deena Hinshaw, has (multiple times) explained why "The Sweden Approach" and "Herd Immunity" are idiotic ideas that are a bad idea for Canada. Every time she tells idiots that they're ideas are idiotic, I'm here for it....but also feel so sorry for her having to do it in the first place.

Had the exact same feeling when we were home a few weeks ago. We went to the Bombers Store to buy stuff, and as we were walking back to the car, I stopped at the fence and looked in at the empty stadium. A sickening feeling. I would go for CFL ball 12 months of the year, but right now, especially, it's tough......
