The question about our Ol is more about depth. We have low numbers and need more depth but hopefully that's coming. Maybe via draft, maybe via trade, and definitely via recruiting down south.

I caught pneumonia and a form of gastritis back in mid-Jan and have been scrapping it ever since, so I haven't had a drop of booze in nearly a month. I can't even tell you how badly I want a craft brew. We finally got that new Farmery in Alberta now, and I can't even have it. Faaaaaaack. God willing this **** I've got doesn't kill me, I'm coming home in June for a fishing trip, and I can't WAIT to try all these new MB brews/brew pubs....

Great athlete...multi-purpose guy. Can play a shut down role on D and can return kicks. Underrated because of his size...plays bigger than he is.

Yeah, that's a great story for Marshall...happy for him. What's Cotton's deal...? Will he be back?

Fwiw, Darren Cameron tweets that Dressler will be wearing #7 this year. S'posin' that means Demond is gone for sure....

I believe consensus last year was we won FA Day 1. Just sayin'..... Looking forward to June camp....

It's selective memory. Remembering the last year and forgetting his BC time and early Bombers time which was really really good.

...And he signed with the Riders, I believe...

Hufnagel not holding back on what he thinks about the Bombers signing other teams guys and not signing any of their own guys. Interesting that people seem to think of us as poachers right now...

How old is Keeping? He's pretty old, right?

Apparently those guys are all done in 1 year, so the money is basically irrelevant to the Leafs. That's what I read on Twitter, anyhow....

This...it's not about being cheap, it's about being smart. Don't get caught up in the craziness and overpay, just because that's the asking price. gary lawless ✔ @garylawless lots of @cfl buzz regarding Ted Laurent. sounds like a team has put aside over $250 k to sign him. No offers in yet @cflfastarts in 13 mins

Dion Phaneuf personified everything that was wrong with the Leafs. I have no doubts he'll help the Sens as a 3/4 D with no letter, but as the Captain of the Leafs, expected to be the #1 guy, and being paid like it......all kinds of wrong fit.

I like what Lawless was tweeting earlier about how Laurent may not go today. Asking price near 300k, apparently, and a lot of teams (obviously) balking at that. May not go until tomorrow when people can talk that down a fair ways...

Harris at the right price is cool, but I'm concerned as well about his age,at the price he's reportedly asking...

I just really hope they don't blow their load over-paying for Laurent. I would not be a fan of that. Pretty much anything else goes, tho...

THe thing about Ladd that sorta complicates things is it's hard to just outright deal your captain. It's not that it can't be done, obviously, but optically, it looks bad. Hopefully they're able to work something out, anyhow...

5 more years of greenback hunting on Big Windy for Big Buff....smart decisions all around

That's where I'm at too. It's not like they're in cap trouble. If you're gonna get a deal done, pay him a higher AAV and get the term shorter. I don't trust a Buff anywhere near 40...

Jeeze that's a big number, but I'm sure that was to keep the term down. I like the 5 years a lot.

what did we figure out for time tomorrow? Is it Noon ET, 11am Wpg, and then 10am for us Oil folk......?

Nurse and Klefbom... Both going to be great ones.

Lawless tweeted earlier that he was talking with Messam, and he said that he really wants to stay in Calgary. Just wants to get a deal done.

I just have such a hard time believing Josh Bourke gets to FA.....

Nick Kypreos ‏@RealKyper 4m4 minutes ago Now a given @Jets will offer Dustin Byfuglien the long term contract they didn't want to in the summer. No reason this shouldn't get done
