There's experience, and there's telling first-hand-account stories of the first ever pro football game played in Canada.................

This has been a thing since the start of the Lapo era, actually. Really getting out to communities to try and drum up support with kids, and create lifelong fans. It's been a big part of the organization for awhile, and it's great to see. There are WAY too many Rider fans in MB, and they need to start creating more lifelong Bombers fans...

You really need this as a sig line.....

You don't bridge Scheiffle...he's earned a long term deal. I just don't think he's ever going to be worth the big money. 6 seems a bit high now, but as mentioned, he at least has the potential to earn that in a few years. I don't think he'll wear the C as long as Wheeler is here, but definitely an A next year.

I don't like much more than 5m/year for a guy like Scheiff right now. 6 seems really steep.

That school has helped out Manitoba sports in the past....gotta be a good sign.....

Interesting to see the Lions hire one-time-CFL-legend Bob O'Billovich as a scout, and Geroy named head of CIS scouting...

well, they did that recently, and he continued to do stupid things like turn the puck over unnecessarily. It's a real shame....this kid is just not right in the head right now.

Yakupov still has a massive upside to him. His biggest issue right now is confidence, which was destroyed by Dallas Eakins.

I like how you phrased it..."use a pick to get a OL on the roster".........we don't necessarily have to draft one, if we can trade the pick for one. But using a pick...somehow, some way....to get an OL on the roster, is crucial.

They need Quebec around as an option to bail out a failed southern market. QC will get their team but it might be like Wpg did.

Dr Drai going nowhere... That's a no starter I'm afraid...

The Oilers can't and won't trade from a position of weakness. None of their good D will be going. You wanna talk about dealing for a Sekera or Griffin Reinhardt or something, then maybe, but Nurse/BOMB!/Davidson are who they're building that back end around...

Not if it's Auston Mathews for the #5, it's not......

Taylor Hall might be the most underrated F in the league and a tough guy to trade. Thing is....he's a natural leader, and a guy you put the C on...but so is McJesus. As for dealing RNH....he's a big solid C who is young, and just coming into his game. Not a guy I want to get rid of. I love Eberle, but I see him being traded before the others (except that he's got insane chemistry with McJesus, so not likely going to go unless there's a crazy deal on the table). Yakupov could definitely go, but it's got to be the right deal. As we saw at the deadline, Chia isn't going to deal just for the sake of making a deal. No magic beans, thanks....

If the Edmonton 1st is Matthews then Wpg doesn't have enough to make any deal. If it's around 5th or something, then you could maybe talk...

Have to think that the lower capacity in IGF means there will be a higher price-per-ticket, but we'll see. If there was anything under 200, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.

We paid exorbitant sums to go to the fLames/Habs game a few years back at McMahon. Awful seats, *FREEZING* cold, and possibly the two teams I hate more than any other in the NHL. But y'know what? It's a ******* OUTDOOR NHL GAME....who knows when or if you'd ever get to see one again?! It's an event...just to say you were there...to be a part of it. We got tix off Ebay, I think...whatever it took to say we were there. I'd likely do the same for the Jets/Oilers, being my two favourite teams, but not sure I can get the time off work to come out from AB. I strongly encourage anyone who has the opportunity to get tix...go....it really is a once in a lifetime deal, and you won't regret it.

...and also, who gives a ****?

Every team in the league would like a guy like Myers...no question.

Don't let rational thoughts cloud a thread filled with conspiracy theories...

That is really impressive considering how shitty the Ducks started the year. Man, did they turn it around...

My issue with the Jump Street/MIB thing (aside from no Will Smith/TLJ, which will derail that end of it badly) is that Lord and Miller (Last Man On Earth, Lego Movie, and the Jump Streets) aren't going to be helming this. They're going to take a Producer credit, but won't be writing the script or really working on it at all. I fully believe those guys were the driving force that made the Jump Street movies as good as they were.
