Normally when people say "topic over now" they don't follow it up with another baiting comment just ripe for someone to respond too.
Let's try this again.... topic over now!!!
How about dem Jets!

Thanks...  Yeah, I mean I wouldn't want/expect him to be worried about it now anyhow. I guess it was just the way this internet stranger worded it, made it out to be bigger than it was.

I thought he said he was concentrating on winning the games right now, and not thinking about anything other than that. Not much more than that. 
 
There was a lot of joking about Edmonton, his parents, living in Wisconsin, North Dakota, his folks benching him for bad grades at one point in his youth…..

Except that there is no evidence to support that our "heroes" arent "perfect angels" other then reasonable common sense that would presume no one is a "perfect angel".  You're making an assumption that a Jets player can only be one of two types of people: a perfect angel or a drug addict.  Nothing inbetween?
 
You simply cannot make up rumours about people or perpetuate a rumour without anything more substantial then "well my buddy was there".  Could it be true?  Sure.  I might have rode into work today on the back of a pink unicorn too, who's to say.

I feel bad for Postma; solid teammate, and a solid dude (from what I'm told.. my GF volunteered with him at Siloam Mission last fall).
What I couldn't help think about....
Postma doesn't play for 2 months, no peep out of him, comes back, plays 23 mins and is praised for his solid play.
Meanwhile, Pavs doesn't play for a couple weeks, comes back, plays well but blows the game (STL, obvs), and afterwards it's all about how he hasn't played in awhile, he was screened etc.
 
Methinks, the younger Postma could teach Pavelec a thing or two about being a pro...
...that said, not a bash-Pavelec post... he played well on Saturday. Do we think Maurice goes back to him vs SJ?

Not every thing we hear is Bogous, nor that Troubasome, but I think I'll wait to hear 'waz up' from the team's limo driver before I comment.

If you said 10 years ago in the space of four years a NHL team would return and a AHL team would leave then also return to Winnipeg. Both playing in the same building you would of been put in an asylum.

And Monday didn't completely suck this week.... go figure...
and GO JETS GO!
"Big game tomorrow"...

I thought franchises had learnt by now that building rinks that size was stupid.

If you consider how Alberta has undetaxed the oil companies compared to Norway or even Alaska, the differences are staggering. You assume that high taxes are evil and lowest taxes are the most desirable, but I suggest you look at the examples of New Jersey and Kansas compared to the Nordic countries, Germany and France, to name a few. In the European examples, you have social stability,low crime rates, low infant mortality, and longer life spans. In these European countries, you not only have comprehensive health care, but in all but France, they have one-month vacations where the people get an extra month's pay during their vacations.
In Kansas and New Jersey, the gospel has been slash all government spending and the economic climate in these two states has gotten so bleak that even the GOP rank and file has begun calling for restoration of services and raising of taxes. Canadians have consistently said in polls over the years that they would prefer higher taxes as opposed to lack of critical services. Compare that to King Ralph Klein who said his aim was to weaken government so much that he could "drown it in a bathtub" .

Yes, Norway does tax its citizens at a high rate, but Norweigians get free dental care, fee eye care (including glasses), free psychological care, and two years of free post-secondary education for those who qualify. Moreover, Norwegians rate themselves a the third-happiest people on Earth (the Danes were #1) and as a measure of the health of their society, when neo-Nazi Anders Brevik (who killed 77 people including children) appeared in court, families of the slain appeared in court to ask that Brevik be given psychiatric help rather than a lifetime behind bars. That is a mark of a humane society.  
Wealth does not equal happiness or mental health. There is evidence to the contrary.

Oh, duck off with will ya.

It's almost nauseating following this race day-by-day this year. This week we've lost once and had 2 unlucky nights on the out of town scoreboard....boom!...playoff chances down almost 20% back to essentially a coin flip.
Someone said on 1290 yesterday, and I concur, I'd almost rather be asleep from now until April...wake me up then and let me know if we're in. My heart can't take it...
But hey, happy Friday y'all! "Big game tomorrow"...

I'm not entirely sure that Arizona has a professional hockey team, either.

Clear homer bias aside, Bryan Little has to be one of the most underrated players in the league.
