Odds are that Seattle takes one of Copp, Lowry, or Roslovic.

The club gets a cut from each replica ring sold, and the money from the Grey Cup base goes back to your club and its players directly.

If you took a poll to identify the dirtiest players in hockey today, who wants to bet that the name Tkachuk would appear twice in the top three?

And on cue Brady cross checks Harkins in the back to start a scrum. Helle with a nice breakaway stop to preserve the shutout- for now.

I am really pleased to hear how many players have re-structured their contracts to keep the gang together. Hard to imagine many folks who have suffered financially during the pandemic would step up and take a 50%+ pay cut like Adam Bighill did going from $250,000 to $115,000. But also credit the Bombers for paying him his full $100,000 in bonuses in 2020 when they didn’t even have any games. Honest give and take from both sides, no shenanigans. A salute from this fan for a lot of class and understanding from all sides.

So my wife asked me “Are all the Tkachuk’s **** disturbers or what?” Brady itching to start a fight he’ll get a teammate to finish.

And Wheeler makes it 4-0 on a sick passing play. The talent has shown up tonight. Would like to see Stastny get off the schnide next.

Great grit from Lewis on the 3rd goal. Absorbs the hit, cross bar, and boards to create an open net for Lowry. Jets skating now and full court press on the young Sens. And Forbert looking composed and solid out there. Glad we didn’t ALL quit on him after 20 minutes of play.

Yeah, spitting is for losers. We just throw snowballs and beer cans, run on the field to attack players, tear down TV broadcast tents.....

As we hit 12:00 pm Washington time, let us count down to the dawn of a new era and the closing of this thread. 5....4....3....2....1....

Gotta say I like the COVID mask team intro. It’s the small details that made the thread better.

Small sample size so I won’t make blanket statements, but Niku has not covered himself in glory these past two games. Stastny to net front on the power play showed some promise, quick passing decisions with the puck that made the others move it with more purpose. Having said that, Scheifele may need to practice recovering the puck off the boards on his backhand when the power play shot goes wide - lost the zone 3-4 times when he couldn’t corral the puck on the rebound. Actually thought Brossoit was pretty steady given the shot volume and quality. Ottawa at 5 on 6 looked like the Jets’ penalty kill, just standing around letting the play come to them rather than pressuring and forcing. Felt very confident the Jets would score given the time they had to set up. And Ottawa’s passiveness continued in overtime, not the way to win games. Happy with the W but taking 20 minutes off a night and playing from behind is not a long term winning strategy. But 2-1 with lots of room for improvement is encouraging if you play the glass half full game.

COVID related symptoms was cause of death.

It will probably depend on the type of player. When the NHL took a year off pretty much all the old vets did not look good upon return, but the main reason cited was that the game had gotten faster and more wide open and they couldn’t keep up. With the physicality of football, a year off could help many vets heal, but the speed will be diminished. Harris has never been a speed back, so he might benefit from the extra time. DB’s, WR’s and those who rely on pure speed as their biggest asset could suffer.

So like every other fan base out there.

Fajardo would be the goalie. Because he likes goal posts as well.

Andrew Harris officially back. https://www.bluebombers.com/2021/01/15/still-get-chills-drive-ig-field-harris-returns/

Contract year. Great pick-up in your fantasy draft.

Didn’t miss the 1st. Just don’t base my entire perception of a player off of 20 minutes.

Yeah, that goal Forbert saved was awful. 🙄 You often complain that Maurice rides his top lines too much, and now you want to have him do just that. Do you even hear yourself, or do you just complain for the sake of it?

Jersey numbers are noticably bigger on the back this year to my eye.

You think his wife will never bring it up again? Have you ever BEEN married? *check over my shoulder to make sure my wife isn’t behind me before I hit send*

Kudos for owning your mistake and not doubling down. You are forgiven, now just put this on.

Ok thanks. But his salary won’t count against the NHL cap, correct?

Active cases down 1,300, hospitalizations down 77, ICU cases down 11 with only 3 deaths. Better news all around.
