Another reminder that football is the ultimate team sport, we win as a team and we lose as a team.

Faceoffs win percentages need to be cleaned up as well especially in close games and as we approach post season. The good news is this team is finding ways to win games in a variety of ways. Just focus one game at a time, improving this here, that there, try to stay healthy clinch a playoff berth as the next goal and then focus on next immediate goal from there. In enjoying this while it lasts.

This has nothing to do with Trotz but it brings me great joy and guilty pleasure in seeing how the Predators season is fairing this season so far. I know Trotz mentioned he's all about Culture and doesn't want the team to tank but I hope they do so they can raise a new banner celebrating that 'achievement'.

Is it unfair to suggest that Barry Trotz is showing he may be better coach, a better advisor than he is a General Manager?

I so hope we play them in the post season with favorable results.

Obviously I'm not an expert but one way to keep the O simple is when you have the best RB in the league deploy him (health permitting) with discipline to help the receivers with separation, i.e., DB's.

These Power Rankings just in: Argos suck.

It’s a given we get to the GC game every year, right? That’s the standard that’s been set so giddy up.

One down, 30 teams and 16 playoff wins to go.

MOS is obviously a humble/modest guy but your use of the word disgusted seems too harsh and exaggerated. I think its more of a feeling of awkwardness and unsettledness with attention. It's probably just how he has been wired as a human being over time.

You lost me on this.

Right after his winning goal and thru the whole tournament: Go Canada Go. Thank you your Majesty. After the Four Nations festivities ended: Oilers suck. 🙂

Pokey and the Bandit. Good times.

The Ehlers situation is going to be very interesting in how it all plays out over the next couple of weeks or so. My assumption is there's no way Chevy lets NE walk at the end of the 2024/2025 campaign without getting anything for him in return? What are our chances in re-signing him with probably a considerable bump in his pay? What would the length of the contract be? Or do we trade him for some D help, O help, both or blue chip prospects, i.e., 1st rounders? Or we keep in for this upcoming post season, he helps us win the cup (that's the ultimate return) and walks off into the sunset to another team? But that wouldn't be an option? Or would it? So many questions.

I think to summarize this most recent convo going back and forth is that yes indeed the Riders and Argos really do suck.

Trap game? Let’s hope not. Put the Sharks to bed early.

Stanley is definitely not a Thomas at this point in their respective careers. Stanley at times makes really smart plays but you just can’t trust him he will be consistent with what they need from him. Hopefully he can improve on this but the leash you would think is shortening. Thomas at this stage is just consistently a non factor on the field (game tape does not lie) who reached his full potential a few years back and has rapidly declined. Great guy, great leader just doesn’t have it athletically anymore.

Face-offs need improving stat, especially in tight games.

Pionk not a great last couple of series for him.

Considering BC sucks have no budget left, makes sense.

Demko says what?

Again like a few others here, great post, indeed Riders suck.

Just make the damn playoffs. Secure that then fingers crossed for the Wild. Would love to stomp them.

Do the Ticats want our jerseys as well? Jeebus.
