It puts the Jets in a better position in the off season to pick up a guy or two to fill out the roster. I assume next season Morrissey makes the jump so maybe we dump off Postma and maybe we drop Frolik and Stafford and sign a LW with the extra cash.

The Jets and NHL have a huge brand to protect, they want zero scandals and everyone associated with them to protect that image. Do you really think that the NHL is the only league where young guys with millions of dollars are clean as a whistle? The ufc is in full blown crisis mode, the NFL is almost there, mlb has been fighting this for decades... But no its impossible that good old hockey players aren't in that same boat. The NHL and True North have done a much better job protecting the image of the brand would be the real answer.

Maybe this will humble Kane and he will grow up and be a team player? Maybe he will think he is the top star in Buffalo and will cause major issues if they draft McDavid since he won't be the superstar. I'm sure the club will be happy to rid themselves of a problem child and that they can finally stop having to discuss with the media about the stupid things he would do.

Thanks shanks! Glad we can have open discussions as long as they follow the opinions of the mods on here! I wasn't aware that we can rip on Kane , the Riders, Joe Mack or anyone not on the blue or Jets but if we bring up topics that do have a hint of truth about our guys we have to put our heads in the sand. Or we can have mods who mock or rip on fellow posters because they disagree with none of those posts or threads deleted. This feels like ob.com 2.0 at times. I like the site but remember the downfall of ob was partially because of mods trying to shape all discussions to whatever they want to hear.

I havnt followed the Ice Caps but it appears purely based on looking at stats that they have nothing going good aside from Goaltending.

Anyone familiar with Armia and Lemieux? Potential on these guys?

This can get intetesting!

I almost look forward to seeing them fail and watching the ankle injuries pile up from that site....

Not really he bit on Buff looking off and then putting it on the net... it was a great move by Buff. the game could of been easily 4 - 1 if not for some great saves by Dubnyk

Rennie curran would be interesting

Walters was called a snake by Korey Banks so does this mean no one will sign here? I would put zero weight in guys being scared to sign in Ottawa.Okay. I'm just going by what players said last year. Clearly you know best.We frequently hear stories of bitter players.. I have yet to see a cfl franchise blackballed by players and struggling to sign players.Money talks and also certain places like Regina and Winnipeg will always be handicapped by geography compared to places like BC , Montreal and Toronto.BC , Montreal and Toronto are expensive places to live if not making top $ Most players don't live in the city they play for... the teams usually put them up in a hotel during the season don't they? Most of the Americans would prefer better night life, better weather, more entertainment etc.... the same issue the Jets have to deal with when competing for free agents...

Bogosian is a good but not great player but he is signed to a long term deal which is huge value for us.... same goes with Kane. As much as I think Kane is a ding dong and will never be a top scorer.... his defense and checking is valued and the guy does play hard. I highly doubt the Jets make a big splash without having to give up a top prospect and that is one thing Chevy will never do.

he forgot to stay healthy for the big one ... and it was a great team - - not a great Kevin - - that got us there You can't win the Cup in the tub

I wouldn't say taking this club to the Grey cup is a failure

Yes to Nik Lewis purely as a veteran leader..I'd rather him then Romby Bryant coming back.

The reason the site died is because this site started up... it wasn't all about Shankman.... it was simply because nearly all of the most frequent posters of ob.com came over here

They played a good game... would of been real nice to come away with a clean victory though

The guy is 26 it says? Drew Willy is a few years older and was "groomed" in Saskatchewan... does that mean Walters is going for a quick fix as well??? I would consider an old washed up guy being more of a quick fix solution a la signing Henry Burris...

Wasn't Goltz signed by Edmonton

Kane won't get traded... If he does it will be during the off season.

The Jets really don't have anyone good to call up...Thorburn will see the ice more and Cormier will sit on the fourth line...
