Winnipeg @ Ottawa GDT
I just don't have a good feeling about this game. Ottawa is ready to break out... just like everyone is saying, they are better than their record. On the other hand, something special happened to the Bombers last week and it may have brought the team together. Mo Leggett returning is another plus. Ottawa has had trouble with killer mistakes. If we can keep this game close, I believe our defence or special teams will come up big when we need them. Just don't let Ellingson and Harris move the ball up and down the field. That's what worries me most.

Bombers @ Redblacks
The second option. Sorry.

Site Update
There is something weird going on with specific poster notifications. Like if I try to say something to someone it doesn't work @Rich Did you get that notify ^ ? Oh well it worked when I edited. But when I make a post, I type the @ and select a name, it looks okay. But then then it gets stripped when I click save.

Nah man I don't get it either. @Fan Boy is on another level from all of us.

I didn't even know that it was weird for an HC to wear shorts until the dusty old balls in the media mentioned it.

Commissioner gets it right
I'll wait for more than one game before I decide if I like it. Right now I still don't think it was the right move, but I'm willing to wait and see.

Ignore? No. I think he would listen to arguments. And I'm sure there are daily discussions with both Walters and Miller. But ultimately the decision would be his, and his alone. I don't believe there was ever a directive from above stating "Willy gets one more chance and then he's done" and MOS went along with it even though he disagreed. I don't believe that happened.

Does O'Shea strike you as being like "most people"? Gotta hand it to Jeff, that was a hell of a read. Thanks for pointing that out.

You're disagreeing with yourself here. You recognize how stubborn MOS is but you expect that he would capitulate to demands from Miller. I don't think those demands would ever come and I don't think O'Shea would EVER allow someone else to dictate how he does his job. It's just not who he is. You think MOS cares if he lands another HC job? He didn't even get into coaching until Jim Barker called him and asked him to be his STC. Trust me, O'Shea would be fine. He'd be hired as someone's STC in a heartbeat and he'd probably have HC opportunities not long after.

No way. Just let Flanders do it. Better yet, put Harris in the Dressler role and Flanders as the RB. That package would be deadly.

Depends on the player, doesn't it? We've all heard of star players getting coaches fired. As for respect for authority... I don't give out respect based on an org chart. If someone hires me to do a job, I do it in the way we agreed upon within the parameters I was given when hired. For a coach, that means the authority to pick who plays and who doesn't. The rules don't change halfway through because the boss is unhappy. And if I was ever given the "my way or the highway" ultimatum.... I'm walking out the door.

I'm pretty sure before game 1, O'Shea said Bruce Johnson might be ready to play. And here we are six weeks later. At this point I don't think we can read anything into any "injury report" coming out of the Bombers.

2017 NHL Off Season
Right which is why it's so strange to hear they are talking long-term. Maybe it doesn't happen though. Totally. But if the number was $8 mil would you do that? Because I don't think Eichel would take 6.

2017 NHL Off Season
Well, I think the Sabres are looking at it like a Scheifele situation. Where you sign a guy long-term before he has proven himself. But that would be incumbent upon the Eichel camp accepting such a deal. And I don't know why they would.

He was 11-7 last year and 3-2 so far this year. Overall yes a losing record in his time here but so far a year and a half of winning records so maybe time to re-think that statement. No, it's not a good question. He was given rope because management thought things were headed in the right direction. They were correct. The team has been winning for a year now. What truth??? Nothing you are saying resembles the truth. 11-7 is a pretty good record! I gotta say, if we finish 11-7 again I'll be pretty happy. Hopefully with a playoff win this time. That's exactly what a Sask fan would say!!
