Those are our weakest players? I'll give you Stuart and Stafford. Postma is a typical 3rd pairing D-man, he's fine as a #7, which he started the season as. Blaming Thorburn when he barely plays is ridiculous. These guys aren't the problem. The problem is elevating guys before they are ready to contribute. Armia and Lowry are fourth liners. Connor should never have been on the team, same with Tanev. Handing the keys to Hellebuyck and Hutchinson was a disaster. Everyone is all horny to blame the vets but the young guys have played a larger part.

A punt return TD is great flash so not sure what point you're trying to make. Unless your definition of great flash is "dominated the game in every facet". Which is not really a good definition.

Byfuglien is our best defenceman so I know you're not referring to him. But hey, losing is awesome! We're number young! We're number young!

He is at least young with a future. I'd take him over Taker, Brock, or Goldberg. And then you've got a bunch of guys that honestly don't really have a hope... New Day (maybe Big E but very very doubtful), Cesaro, Sheamus, Mojo Rawley, Big Show... none of these guys are going to win. The Miz, Dolph, Deaner.... all good stars but do they have a chance at winning? It seems unlikely. The more I think about it, the more all signs point to BRRRRAAUUUUN!!!!

Braun would be booed for the rest of his career!! Which, since he's a heel, maybe is a good thing! lol!

Agreed. The depth is not as good now as it was then. But we're younger... that's what everyone always wants, isn't it?

The head idiot is hopeless. If the lost soul is following the head idiot, he will himself act like an idiot. The lost soul can be guided by a man of great wisdom, such as Mike O'Shea, for great justice. God bless.

LOL yes BRRAAAUUUNNNN is a likely candidate. Maybe the most likely. If they want to build him up as a monster (and I think they've done a good job lately), then he really should win. The reason I'd be hesitant about Dillinger is that the crowd will like him, and they might do the "TEN! TEN! TEN!" thing for the rest of the Rumble every time there is a countdown to an entrance. The crowd might do that anyways. And it could also be a Daniel Bryan situation.... 2014/2015 rumbles everyone wanted and expected Bryan to win and once he got eliminated, everyone else got booed HARD. It wasn't the very beginning of the hate for Roman and Batista but it was the spark that really ignited it. I don't want to see that happen to someone else. I'd love to see Bobby Roode but he's in the title picture in NXT so I'm not expecting it.

Nice, getting creative. I think Dillinger entering the Rumble would be disastrous for several reasons. I hope they don't do that yet.

On paper yes but why aren't the results there? And as much as I hope Trouba sticks around, we don't know what his fate will be. Sure do like how Morrissey is developing though.

Just for a season til Toby and Stuart are gone though

I'm not surprised we would bring up Strait. We are down to our 10th defenceman... can't expect them to be pulling a superstar out of their butts. I'm not expecting much but don't think we have any better right now. Maybe Czuczman I guess but as mentioned he is not Jets property.

Yeah. Just a gut feeling. I believe he has until August to sign with the Jets then he will become a UFA.

It's quite different because Carter is a better player and a bigger *******.

I think we're going to lose Poolman

True. I don't think Stafford is a bad guy but I believe he is Carter's cousin and that may have been a bad influence on him in MTL.

I read those rumours about Zayn... I don't know if I buy it. But who knows what goes on backstage. I love Shane O Mac but winning the rumble? I sure hope not! So far there are 22 confirmed entrants. Care to predict the final 8? I'm thinking Kane, Finn Balor, Samoa Joe, Shane O Mac, Kenny Omega, Tatanka, Apollo Crews, and... Scott Steiner? Lol. Not so sure about that last one but I'd love to see it. Is Erick Rowan hurt? Now would be a good time to bring him back with Luke Harper possibly being kicked out of the Wyatt family. Reunite Rowan and Harper, they were a good team.

I hated the call but you can be called for slashing even when it is stick-on-stick. Just usually has to be more egregious than that, eg. the other player's stick breaks or is knocked out of his hands.

Copper strikes again. MAYBE Maurice knows what he's doing!

I'd **** my pants

What a list of titles!

Holding? They don't call that in the CFL

Seems like as good a time as any to get Hellebuyck back in. Don't want to leave him on the bench too long now.

I'd guess so. They don't even have another forward on the roster so unless they are dressing 7 D (....or 3 goalies...), Laine will be back.

Former first rounder acquired in the Bobby Ryan trade. Hasn't really done anything at the NHL level up to this point in his career.
