I would hope we are not that one dimensional if they happen to minimize Harris's production. If they do early I hope Lapo remains patient and doesn't go away from the run. We aren't really a big play type team, lets just grind them into the ground. Field position, field position, field position I say my man Dressler comes up big today to help out my other man Harris. Go Blue.

Well they already have his reincarnation but unfortunately for them McJesus can't play 60 minutes and can't play all positions. Overheard on the Oilers bench after McDavid trying to come off after his 15 minute shift , 'Hey what are you doing McDavid, get back out there'.

Have one ready if we're winning: 'The horse must be cold' (I can't stand the way they run their horse when they score so something to give that tradition a shot - there is a lot of creative people on this board, I'd love to read what they could come up with about that horse) Have one ready if we're losing: 'Who cares, Riders suck.'

I'm wondering if the Oilers would like Eberle back.

ZC sure wouldn't have beaten that outside containment like BB did a few times against us.

Interpretation makes sense, thanks.

What doesn't correlate with me regardless of either interpretation is expects player to be fined but defends it.

Said every ultra competitive athlete with injury ever known. :-)

Again I'm not suggesting trading for Nylander and keeping him. I'm suggesting that maybe the Jets are in a better position than the leafs to flip him to another team (this requires the third team involved in these discussions prior to any trade completed) as Trouba maybe the Leafs number 1 choice but Nylander isn't our first choice. The moons would have to align here for sure for all three teams to benefit.

True but I'm thinking the Jets would make Trouba more available than Morrissey. In fact my guess is Morrissey isn't available at all to discuss where as Trouba is.

Because Trouba may be the best on the available market and his style of play fits nice with the other skill sets on that team.

We just need a cup before he retires so he can erase the one he won with the Hawks. :-)

Everyone has a sweetness to it. :-)

I'm suggesting the Jets could flip Nylander for someone. A three way deal that benefits all. I'm not sure who that third team would be, but a team willing to take Nylander for a D man.

I didn't realize salary cap included support staff. Is that common across other professional sports?
