lame.

This is what it all comes down to. Trouba looks like an absolute steal of a draft pick but he's still a rookie, give him a few years to really find his place in the NHL, Schiefele is looking like a solid top 6 centre but again still a rookie give him some time. Those are the guys that the team will need to rely on so there's no harm in waiting them out. Hell Kane is still a young guy himself. 

I Like KG, but we seem to have a plan and the price is still too high. 
 
Let BC have him. 

I just wish to state that I stand 100% behind the OP in his outrage. 

You might be "someone like that".

I don't know what we offered Butler and Bourke, but the fact that we whiffed on both of those guys (particularly Bourke) and signed an import receiver for a bundle of cash concerns me.
 
Does this group want to win, or did they just want to 'make a splash'? 
 
Sorry for being negative, but our NI depth is ugh and our O-line is going to get someone killed.

I'll be happier when it's signed sealed and delivered so to speak. 

I wish I had an optimistic feeling like that. All I have is this sinking feeling that we'll be reading an announcement about how happy Walters is to welcome Burris to Winnipeg. 

The thought of the 2013 Bombers featuring MB as OC, Etch as DC and Henry F%*$^ Burris as our starter, after having essentially a clean slate and a pile of cash to work with, is incredibly, unbelievably depressing.

We should have taken Banks in the Ottawa dispersal draft anyway. Better late than never.

Plz change thread title to: "Penton: Rumour Mongering To Make 17to85s Head Pop Off", for accuracy...

I'm pretty confident that getting a good piece or 2 on the o-line will do more to improve the Bombers than an 'impact' import receiver.

Hey I like Walters. I do. I hope he succeeds big time.
 
But this just reeks of 'same old same old'. 
 
This is not the change we (I ) was looking for.

Khari as HC? 
 
No thank you.
 
Love the guy, not a HC, at least not yet. Maybe in 5 or 6 years .... 
 
Please don't let this be true.

It's really simple, hire the right guy at GM and everything will fall into place cause the right choice at GM leads to the right choice at HC which leads to the right choices at coordinator and so on. Get the right man at the top and it'll all work out. 

There are no long term solutions available right now. The shot we had at securing a Collaros or Willy or whoever is long gone now.There is no point in bringing in any retreads. TB is right, with 5 games to go, we're going to have to suck it up and ride this thing in. 
 
The fact that Burke is still employed as HC here tells me we are hanging on until the offseason when the real purge will begin. I just hope that the Bombers haven't burned up every scrap of goodwill by then. It is going to take some monumental changes/promises to get the fans back now.  

Yeah well how about you stop presenting your 'common sense' as fact.

If Burke ISN'T making these decisions then he should be fired for not doing his job. The only guy who could potentially be dictating to Burke is Miller, and if that is happening we are well and truly ******.
