Marcel Bellefeuille - When does he get axed
Shouldn't he design the O around Drew Willy's skill set?

Election 2015
You know what? I might have over stated the media biased. The endorsements coming out for the Conservatives would seem to indicate that. Though the cbc more than makes up for the others. Let's call it a tie

Grey Cup Ticket Sales
In the south end zone? They'd be opposite the stage so pretty good site lines. Unless I'm misunderstanding where the stage is going...

Election 2015
Yes the CBC is a prime example of non biased journalism. But ofcourse your opinion supersedes my opinion. Uh huh But Fraser it's okay. Don't take things so personally. A few people around here need to relax.

Someone should turn on the taxpayer funded national news outlet and watch for a few minutes. But they won't. Hurts their bias narrative.

Lemieux suspended for hit to head
That was a pretty slow elbow. Worth a penalty. Not sure a suspension in the NHL. Not indefinitely that's for sure.

Around the NHL
I'm not sure anyone expects him to be a top pairing. He will get back in and be fine. Anyone paired with Buff has the challenge of not only taking care of their own business was making sure buff's is taken care of too

@craigsmorgan: Shane Doan has three points (G, 2 As) tonight. Now within 27 points of Dale Hawerchuk for the franchise all-time lead.

Election 2015
Really??? Well compared to JT he's out of style. But I don't recall any PM's who were ever cutting edge of style. Harper generally looks fine though, put together. Just a dated hair cut.

Around the NHL
What's with Blue Jackets? I thought they were pegged to be a good team this season.

Edmonton Oilers LOL (perhaps Calgary Flames LOL)
I think Calgry is okay. But they made the playoffs last season on the back of a great shooting percentage. Be pretty difficult to keep that up. So that alone should bring them back to reality a bit.

Game 5: Flames @ Jets
13 goals. 28 points for Burmi with the Jets once. So yeah if he can go 15 and 30 I think that's a good contribution. Especially of he continues to be a good pick possession guy.

Game 5: Flames @ Jets
We agree!!
-
Game 6: Blues@Jets
He's a bit more talented than just being a goon. Not Much. I remember people thinking we should get rid of thorburn because Peluso was a better hockey player and better fighter. Thorburn seems to be able to play in more situations though You could be right. Perhaps they waive him to the Moose. At least get him some playing time.

Marcel Bellefeuille - When does he get axed
I'm no expert but shouldn't the offense look polished at the beginning of the game with all week to work on the plan? Assuming ofcourse the offense has the potential to look polished at all As a Marcel fan, I cant imagine how he doesn't get canned at the earliest possible opportunity. The only reason MOS might be prevented from canning him is if MOS is going to go too and Walters decides to clean house altogether.

Election 2015
Over the years I have read a lot of opinions that Harper actually wears a toupee but have not seen any definitive evidence of this fact. There is a helluva lot of horizontal going on in this picture but nothing more to substantiate the claims other than the fact that his hair looks really weird. I never thought of that. But it's possible. It always surprised me he didn't sort of make himself over. It's not a big deal but it's a weird hair design. That for sure.
-
Game 6: Blues@Jets
Did Peluso sign a two year deal?? Have to wonder why we did that....hedging against guys like Petan making the team? A lot easier to swap Halischuck and Peluso than to take Petan out for him. Peluso might end up waived eventually. It's not like we go into any game without back up. Thorburn will scrap. Other guys will step up of someone is being taken advantage of. Not the same as a killer like Peluso but skill is better.
-
Game 5: Flames @ Jets
Hahaha which one?? I think I thoigjt Burmi wojld add more offensively and he still might because he gets chances. But if he keeps up his play he will replace what frolik brought as a responsible defensive mid six player. And thus far the jets haven't needed him to be more offensive.

Election 2015
I have a female Muslim friend. She just took the oath. No Niqab. As much as she engages in her religion she would never allow herself to be treated less than equal to a man. Last time I saw her I asked her about how Her family is religiously and what they would do if she brought home a non Muslim boyfriend. Her brother is actually very strict about her having guy friends. But she said she would date whomever she wanted (and she has) and her parents would support her even if they were disappointed. "They love me and want me to be happy". I'm glad she has that option here.

Election 2015
Why pick on Muslims exclusively when the same situation exists for most women in 3rd world countries? Canada itself did not consider women to be "persons" until 1929 so the root of this attitude is in male dominated culture, not strictly in religious beliefs. I agree. But remember we're not talking about foreign policy here. Those other countries are not insisting on using a symbol of their oppression of women while taking the oath. So it's moot. And really, it's practically moot anyway since it's only two women in question here. And also remember we aren't talking about banning the Niqab. You can walk down the street wearing it if you choose.

Election 2015
Well oddly Rich's post disappeared. But the reason I think this is "silly" is because we're dealing in facts. We Can disagree about whether the Niqab should be allowed for Citizenship oaths. But to suggest we shouldn't care bexajse it's their "beliefs" or culture so it should be allowed is sort of silly given the facts of how women fit into the more fundamental Muslim culture. Personally as I hve said numerous times, the issue is pretty low on my give a crap meter. But I think the government is correct in making the point that oppressive examples of any cultre shouldn't have a place at the moment someone is taking an oath to the values of Canada. Women deserve better.

Game 5: Flames @ Jets
How have I over stated him? Someone suggested swapping him and Petan and said he's been good so why mess with it? I suggested maybe swapping him and Perreault for a few shifts because Burmi jas been good. You're the one that stated I am erect over it. You're the one exaggerating not me. Why does everything have to be a fight around here?
-
Game 5: Flames @ Jets
Oh I see. That must be it. It's my boner. It can't be that he's been everywhere from good to great so far. But hey if you disliked him before he season began you have to fit his strong play into your narrative. And yes good 3rd line player. Oh and weird, he's on the third line. And he's good. Fancy that. I guess we agree. My boner notwithstanding.

Election 2015
You don't like Harper so you know his reasoning? That's the problem with you. You think everyone else is clouded by bias but you. Except you're the worse because you don't engage in reasonable discussion. Mainly insults. You don't have to agree.

Game 5: Flames @ Jets
That is not true. But it's an intriguing narrative.
