  1. I just came up with a new term. WWMO'SD What Would Mike O'Shea Do? That's mine, I created it.
  2. The option still exists, it's just only on the team side... the player can't exercise any option. Which is silly because teams can void contracts at any time, whether there is an option or not. But I'm sure it has some kind of fine-print legal implication.
  3. Word is Chevy is looking for a top six forward, preferably a centre.
  4. With Mason's condition as it is, that would make no sense whatsoever. Not happening.
  5. Easier said than done. Not every business is willing to accommodate someone who can only work six months a year.
  6. Kessel uses that line too. I think it's just self-deprecating humor.
  7. Yeah for sure.
  8. Just roster juggling. Hutch will be back up after the all-star break and likely starting on Tuesday. The Moose play tonight and tomorrow so I expect they wanted to get Hutch into one or both of those games so he isn't rusty for the Tuesday start.
  9. Ehlers is terrible on the breakaway and IIRC has never scored in the shootout... though I don't think he's had many attempts
  10. Probably... but he could also sustain a career ending injury during that year and the CFL will just say "sorry bout that kid, have a nice life." There's risk on both paths.
  11. http://calgaryherald.com/news/politics/provincial-liberals-harassment-investigation-under-wraps https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/politics/liberals-kent-hehr-resigns-over-sexual-harassment-allegations/article37733581/ http://www.cbc.ca/news/politics/trudeau-davos-costs-trump-1.4503355 Bad behaviour by Liberals getting exposed on a daily basis
  12. No I wouldn't. I consistently take the player's side in these situations. Football players get a rough deal.
  13. Just give the guy a raise or release him. I don't blame him for not wanting to put his body on the line for 56k. He showed he's worth more than that... if they're not willing to pay, then they should release him and let him take his NFL shot. Clearly he won't be with the team either way without getting a raise so refusing to release him is just spiteful. Coaches and GMs are allowed out of their contracts to pursue better opportunities. Teams cut players and end their contracts. The only ones who don't get to walk away from contracts are the players and they are the ones taking all the risk.
  14. I'm already cringing
  15. Reported for damaging my ego
  16. The thing is, we basically have our top 3 centres set for the next 5 years unless we move on from Lowry... and that doesn't seem likely. So putting Roslo at wing just gives him the best chance to contribute. If it was 2012 Roslo could play centre on our second line but those days are gone Jimmy, let it go.
  17. No.... I am your fodder
  18. He was in the top 10 before he got hurt. And Kovalchuk is number one. So yeah.
  19. Ottawa scooped up Intzandt last season and he's still with them. Butcher I don't know what he's doing... I don't think he played football this past year but I could be wrong.
  20. That's pretty debatable.
  21. 5 minutes for Dano and he still managed to be awful
  22. Datsyuk and Kovalchuk could both still be in the NHL if they wanted to. Unlike every other player in this tournament.
  23. Datsyuk and Kovalchuk on the top line may be unstoppable in this tournament
  24. Stone Cold segment was awesome, everything else with the legends was just "Hey remember this?" Woulda been nice if a legend came back and announced they were wrestling again, or announced they were in the Rumble, or if a last-minute Rumble angle was set up. Like you say, something to get people invested in watching again.
  25. They should have showcased some really big matches. Roman vs Miz was a good move but man it would have been nice to see AJ wrestle. Ideally you do something with some current wrestlers that makes a casual fan say "Wow why am I not watching this anymore?"
