Too bad Chad Simpson took the fall for quitting on the team...

I'd rather have John Tavares than Kane.

IF Chevy makes any trades, I'd say Kane to Philly... they need a LW now that Hartnell is gone - Maybe Kane and a goalie prospect for Couturier and Laughton? Possibly Bogo and 4th to Edmonton for Gagner and Fasth? Armchair GM day

Technically, we did make a major play for Burris...

Lawless crowed about how awesome Richards was and how he knew how to win... and then said LA would buy him out. Made no sense. Richards salary is same as Enstrom's - seems to be the new 'mid-range' salary going forward.

Rumour is that Vancouver offered 6th overall, Shinkaruk and a roster player for the pick and Florida didn't take it. Wow. If that's true, either Tallon's on glue or Shinkaruk's finished.

If we were starting Wild-Kuale-Sears, I would feel pretty good actually... maybe Dunn will surprise.

This is a tricky one - all the same guys who say relax 'the GM knows more about football than you' have also derided bryant for quitting on his team... but now management might be bringing him in.... mind equals blown.

I'm not against Romby Bryant at all... for the right price. Exp receiver if Moore goes down... all depends on how he recovered from his injury last year

We've been on the receiving end of too many fast shuffles between other teams (ie: Reilly, Collaros, Ray etc) to play nice. The other teams can go pleasure themselves. That's all well and good except for one thing ... we have first year Canadians on our practice roster too. If what another team has on their practice roster is significantly better than what we have, I say go for it. We've been eating dirt for too long- nice guys and all that. I don't think that's been the case at all, Joe Mack never really went after PR guys cuz he thought he could find better players on his own. You need a place to put these guys too, right now we don't have many openings if any actually. I'm sure Mack plucked someone off a PR and the other GM was p.o'ed about it.... can't remember who offhand Edit: ST guy - Beaulieu-Richard

I was just going to say he sounds too big for an Etch guy

Starting three CDNs on defense for week 1. Would that be Bulcke, Laurent, and Butler? Is Courtney Stephen not a starter at the moment? Plesius is still in the mix at MLB too

So then why isn't he still with Calgary? He was 32... Its a credit to Bryant that he found work as an import receiver for two more years after that. I could see him in Ottawa even now...

Wow... degenerating into a Mike Kelly thread. just wow.

I can't believe Dunn is still on this team.

I don't think much is set in stone with our RBs...

I will say that it is nice to see the bombers actually maximize the use of their practice roster... this hasn't happened for several years now, always been empty spots.

Sounds like... Randle-Washington-Leggett-Johnson-Bucknor Dunn-Kuale-Sears Vega-Thomas-Turner-Peach/Anderson Kelly-Moore-Watson-Denmark-Kohlert January-Greaves-Morely-Neufeld-Knapp Willy-Grigsby/Volny/Pontbriand Still a ways to go... Lineup reminds me of Etch... all or nothing.

You mean aside from DT...? And one backup for two NI REC spots...

So... Cordarro Howard made the 46 over Jarvis Jones...?

5'9, 229 lbs...

Oh calm yer titties... I'm sure Walters will grab one or two more nats from the cuts and frankly even if we don't, we are not any worse off then Edmonton or Ottawa right now.. Well enlighten me then on the starting Nats that are available if you are so sure. We have enough backups, it's starters I'm looking for. We have enough backups?

I'd take Romby Bryant at WR over Aaron Kelly...

Bourassa is the only one I would look at... if he's not going back to school, pretty sure he could come in here and compete for NI RB right away

Bourassa's combine numbers were decent... he might be a nice pickup behind Volny... or maybe even instead of
