When do we fire Richie Hall?
Got your blue-coloured glasses on here a bit... Neufeld is not a confirmed starter - guy has been injured every year of his career and Couture/Spooner are big question marks Ekakitie hasn't shown anything - but I do believe Corney/Thomas are great rotational guys Coates and JFG are not 'solid starters' - they are journeymen who can catch a ball once or twice a game... if they were not Cdn, they'd be gone

Around The League: 2018 Offseason
Its true - I try and post things that contribute to the site... there's a few 'me too' guys that just lurk and throw chip shots or jabs at guys instead of writing anything interesting... all about balance.

Funny how we easily dismiss Wpg sports media and then jump on board with the Ottawa Sun garbage... That being said, Trevor Harris is going to get paid... Montreal, Hamilton or Sask will give him a huge signing bonus - I'm thinking Kavis antes up My dark horse prediction is that Buono trades Jennings to Ottawa for the right to negotiate with Harris a month before FA

Interesting that you spent the time to add up a random win-loss estimate on a throw away post a few days after the grey cup - but hey good job

Or not... https://www.arcticicehockey.com/2017/6/18/15824894/winnipeg-jets-protection-list-revealed-vegas-golden-knights-expansion-draft Although if you think about it, if the Jets had chosen not to protect any players, Vegas could have picked ANYONE on the team. Dodged that bullet.

Yeah man!!! Totally different than this place!!!

Manitoba Moose
Every article talks about them protecting Enstrom and Dano... these are the guys who the picks were traded to protect You in OCD mode today or what?

Manitoba Moose
I just wonder if Dano and/or Petan wouldn't have trade value - team like the Sens, Edmonton, Columbus...?

Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
I'd still say its more Chiarot's inability to cover for Buff's play... Kulikov is not a good partner for him either Buff plays 'rover' and always will - need a guy like Poolman or Enstrom who can anticipate his gaffs... I won't blame Buff alone but his D pair was by far the worst for the Jets last night

Calgary - Don't see them letting Messam go, McDaniel maybe but I think they dip into FA for a slotback - maybe Arceneaux...? I think Nik Lewis is a surprise signing - another good year: 12-6; team gets blown up if there's no grey cup Edmonton - I don't see them as 'next in line' - I think Maas et al overthink their way through the off-season and let some key pieces walk; Gable comes returns to average; Benevides too; run into kicker troubles in the season - 9-9 record; Winnipeg - Hurl finally walks; re-sign everyone for consistency including Medlock; maybe Nevis leaves - Hall replaced by Mark Nelson; Ernest Jackson is the big splash; another hard working year - 11-7 Saskatchewan - everyone comes back down to earth; Collaros is the big signing but Riders lose a couple receivers - maybe to Ottawa or Winnipeg; defence wins games - 9-9 BC - Wally finally walks but is replaced within - maybe ugh Bellefuile; rebuilding year with Jennings still at helm; OL still a major problem - last in west 6-12 Toronto - Ray retires replaced by... Trevor Harris!!!; team stays in mostly together; LH falls off - 10-8 record with a lot of 1-3 point games Ottawa - Desjardins shocks the world and wins the James Franklin sweepstakes... but team is still slim on receivers; Noel Thorpe new DC - 9-9 Hamilton - Durant and Austin reunited... Durant injured in game four; Masoli runs with a rebuilding team 7-11 Montreal - Tommy Condell announced new head coach; Kavis misses out on QB sweepstakes - but don't worry Mack has a plan... he knows a guy who saw a sharp young QB somewhere down south - tall guy, real good at running the wildcat - 4-14

- Should Ricky Ray Retire (On A High Note), Or Keep Trying To Go Beyond 40?
Would be crazy to try one more year... go out on top instead of injured - can probably step straight into a coaching gig with the Argos as QB or REC coach I'm sure some team will lure Condell away from Argos - maybe as an HC...- Manitoba Moose
I'd love to see him on the Jets in the New Year... probably as an injury call up I would bring him in right away but it would mean knocking Lowry out of the lineup or its kind of pointless - and that's not going to happen A bit of a bummer to see Petan's confidence gone... also not sure why we traded picks to keep Dano from VGK- Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
Buff needs Poolman or Enstrom to cover for him... Chiarot is a deer in the headlights out there Myers-Kulikov pairing is a pleasant surprise Morrissey-Trouba should be getting 24 mins a game - just really great chemistry I think anyone with Scheif and Wheeler will look good Its nice having a great 4th line but Perrault needs to get back in top six - he drives the play That being said, I really liked the distribution of ice time last night Get Laine back on the left side - he looks totally lost sometimes... the guy is here to score goals a la Ovechkin not be a set up man Would be interesting to see a Connor-Copp-Armia line- Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
I don't even understand his use on the powerplay now...- Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
Ehlers-Little-Laine just has zero chemistry... get Laine back on the left side already this is nuts. ESW Laine-Little-Armia Connor-Hendricks-Perrault Copp-Lowry-Tanev- Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
Buff-Chiarot is just an absolutely awful pairing. Activate Poolman already.- CFLPA All-Star Team
Hurl was a Richie Hall project... but Kuale was an Oshea project... hopefully this is done. With a real MLB this team really can go all the way- Manitoba Moose
Good news about Schilling but I'd much rather see Melchiori/Niku on that top pairing - don't care about developing a 29 year old career AHL Dman Crazy that Spacek is fourth line centre on the Moose... he needs playing time Had high hopes for Kostalek but he sure plateaued- Game 24: Jets Vs Wild
I don't think so- Game 23: Top Gun @ Jaws
Nice pinch by Buff... behind San Jose net with ours empty... pretty ugly game- When do we fire Richie Hall?
osh seems to have a blind spot for MLB - other guys like Carmichael and Frederick lose their job after 2-3 bad games while hurl and kuale got an endless amount of rope- Jets Prospects
Thank you yoda- Manitoba Moose
