Short term I guess you start the hot hand; and I'm not convinced that's Pavelec anymore. My concern is Pavelec's contract is holding this team back for the next two season, when we are primed in every other area of the team to make some serious noise. This club is primed? We have lots of young talent but far from any real superstars. This club is far from "peak" and even if we had a rock solid goalie I wouldn't think the club would be a cup contender.

So what should the Jets do for this season? Just give up? Maurice has to start someone?

Prior to this season Pavelec was well below league average, and you can't argue with that. Just look at his save percentage (league average is .915 and Pavelec's career save % is significantly below that).In fact that save percentage shows that about every 3 games Pavelec lets in one extra goal, compared to a league average goalie. Think about that for a minute and how damaging that is to a teams success, considering how close games are in the NHL. In a previous thread on this forum I posted links to websites with stats showing he's been the NHL's worst starting goalie over the last few years. His recent hot streak has brought his stats up to about league average, but since then he's starting level off to his normal self, below average. If Pavelec had kept up a league average save % the last two games, we would have won both games. Last two games he was .875 and .833. Prior to Pavelec's recent hot streak he was well below league average. He needed this hot streak just to make himself league average. Think about the anchor he's been this season prior to the hot streak. And now he's leveling off once again to below league average. Pavelec has a hot streak every season, but always levels off to below league average. We're lucky his hot streak occurred when it did this year, during a playoff push, but he's showing he can't be relied upon now as he's leveling off. Playing fewer games this year will also help make his numbers look a little better. He's an inconsistent, below average goalie who lets in soft goals at the worst possible times, and usually one softie per game. Pavelec is a good NHL backup, but is not a starter in the NHL. That's who he is. So what is your opinion on Hutchinson? The numbers have been tanking big time since the break are you suggesting we bench both and put in Budaj?

My old roommate trained I say 8 years ago..it was a joke and aside from getting chopped 1000 times he did not learn a whole lot. I believe it was mostly a scam to take money from naive day dreamers wanting to play pretend.

In regards to old ECW... I'm pretty sure Mikey Shipwreck, spike dudley, two cold Scorpio , rvd were not juicing to the max...

And this is why ECW was so good... a talented wrestler could find a spot on the roster without having to be juiced to the max..... in WWE if you are big and muscles and could half ass wrestle then you are given a spot....

Lots of steroids

I would not consider the guy being sent to the all star game as a weak link. Pav has been mediocre in the past but any normal fan could see that the breakdowns have been not his fault. A weak link would be guys like Antropov,jokinen , setoguchi, etc... Guys who were getting paid but really sucked.

ECW was on trend and made the best of what they had. Raven and JC is much more interesting then Jonny Polo and Aldo Montoya... Wcw was awful TV once the nWo expanded each episode and ppv was so predictable I'm amazed that it had any popularity at all. Every event had the nWo interfere do the spray paint thing and add whatever face to the group once they had a bit of a push. Ecw still holds up, watch the old Austin promos its still good.

I'd say it stood the test of time, watching jerry Lynn vs rvd is still amazing 15 years later... Some of the extreme violent stuff may still be a bit overboard but for the most part every show was damn entertaining. Go back and watch any old WWF and its painful...only old Warrior promos provide any entertainment.

I wish ECW would come back.. It was highly entertaining back in the day.

I'm extremely out of touch with wrestling these days, is the kiddie market much more lucrative then the adult male market? Are they making more money now or were they rolling in more cash during the attitude era?

Remember when WWE had Ken Shamrock and Dan Severyn and how they had Brawl For All etc.... Vince probably doesn't like UFC since they stole the older male audience from him. Ronda Rousey would definitely go to the WWE "if" her movie career takes off (which I doubt it will). Plenty of more money for her to do movies and seminars then for her to fight in the cage.

I would not draft a qb unless the plan is to convert him to receiver...

Dana doesn't own Ronda and also she is fully allowed to co promote the Furious 7 with the Rock...

And Klingberg has a point per game with his new AHL club... I wouldn't put to much stock into the stats. I don't follow the Ice Caps but looking purely at the stats on hockeydb it appears the club is a very low scoring club.

As I said before... They have cameras on transit buses so why not planes?

I don't think Slater is done, someone will sign him.

That will never happen... pilots wont go for it and really when you think of it ... it wouldnt help anything in this case. Would you agree to have a camera watching you work? Everyone in retail , banks, buses don't seem to mind this...

I found most rider fans I met on vacation to be great and very friendly. Now the people from Quebec that I met in Cuba were absolutely a holes to the hotel staff and all around super rude and dis respectful to everyone.

After doing a quick look... it appears a SD feed of the WWE network is on Kodi , not the greatest quality feed but for free it's adequate.

Hutch is not making his coach look like a smart guy... I know the goals weren't bad on him but still 3 in a row is not good at all. O'Dell and Trouba are struggling mightily tonight. Hop they can change it around in the 3rd since they were dominating for the most part..

Makes me wonder how your old partner was able to bring in a dozen names to his shows on chevrier all with maybe 200 in the crowd. I went to at least 5 shows within a year and each show had some big names.

Am I the only one who thinks Peluso is all around better then Thorburn?
