Go out to the parking lot and slash his tires

So basically, had to go back six years to find a highly-ranked CIS DL who has had any noticeable impact... and the best we can come up with is Junior Turner. I think that supports my point more than disproves it.

CIS defensive linemen tend not to be very good high picks in general. I can't recall ever seeing a CIS defensive lineman get drafted in the first couple rounds and have any kind of impact.

Exactly. I'd be shocked if more than 4 make it to a real NFL training camp this year. And 4 players is nothing to make a big deal about.

Yeah but all those guys were in camp. Addison Richards and Taylor Loffler for example were in Giants mini-camp then bombers training camp.

Hopefully the car wasn't damaged.

May as well get a look at the pups now

If that's the case then the Leafs fans were right all along saying Matthews deserves the Calder because he's playing with weaker linemates

I'd have no problem with hiring a new goalie coach and I agree that it's silly to give up on quality prospects without at least seeing if a new coach can help. But if you think Flaherty hasn't tried to coach Hellebuyck's shitty glove-hand out of him I think you're mistaken... I just can't fathom a pro goalie coach being that blind.

There's a big difference between signing a deal and just going to camp. The top 20-ish guys were in an NFL mini-camp last year but only 4 actually signed NFL deals if I recall correctly. I'm not worried about a guy going to mini-camp, even if maybe 1-5% of them do end up getting deals. I'm willing to take that small risk.

Silly premise, guns have little to do with mental health

Maybe we should look at why North Americans have more "mental health issues" than any other society on earth

The common denominator is that none of them are really that good. I don't have an opinion one way or another on Flaherty but I think you are overestimating the impact of a goalie coach.

Yeah I'm sure the Muslims getting gunned down in Quebec were thanking their lucky stars we have gun control in Canada

What love? I just haven't ruled him out as a potential future starter.

Sorry I should have said it's clear to me. As it was at the outset of this season. It may take a little longer for it to become clear to everyone else.

When the **** hits the fan and 50% of people have a gun and 50% of people don't..... what side would you rather be on?

We may have a future starter but his name ain't Hellebuyck, it's Comrie. And he's not ready. So we have some room to sign a starter for some money and term. Sure, Helle can backup (so could any number of other goalies). Best goalie coach in the world isn't fixing that kid. He is a career backup.

I think it's become clear that Hellebuyck is a bum. Priority 1 this offseason is finding a starting goalie.

No way.... front row centre in the upper bowl "overhang" are the best

I'm fine with our starting OL and having Neufeld, Couture, and Foketi as depth is actually quite good. Now add in Zachary Intzandt and a first round pick and the OL is looking far better than I can remember in the last decade.... maybe more. Maybe not enough room to keep Neufeld around though.

People called Kyle Connor a bust? He wasn't ready for the NHL but that doesn't make him a bust. I guess I don't listen to the radio much any more but I haven't heard anyone call him a bust.

Miz absolutely killed it in the John Cena parody.
