14-4 is still on the board.

Rough toddler bedtime? Never heard of such a thing. All good my friend.

Jets signing minor leaguers left, right and centre. The Manitoba Moose are on their way.

This just in for the upcoming season: Leafs suck.

I'm thinking Lucky aint so lucky with impactful injuries/regression type issues but hey hope I'm wrong. Welcome back.

Ah they're lurking my friend, drooling thru their one tooth to pounce at the right moment.

Perfect example that one can be brilliant in one aspect of something but not so much in another aspect of that same said something. In this particular case this something being coaching.

Thank goodness our special tea . . . (thinks about our punting) . . . forget it.

Never said guarantee a spot, said okay, you’re in back up your words with action and if you don’t no excuses. If he then asks to be traded cuz he couldn’t produce after been given a fair shot then so be it. The ball was in his court, no excuses.

Putting it another way, 'I have people for that, I focus my attention on talent'. 🙂

Stay tuned for the 13-5 is still on the board post. Editors note: I'm hoping this weak attempt at humor does not age well. 🙂

Hey 14-4 (updated from last weeks 15-3) is still on the board. 🙂

'Toronto signed defenseman Chris Tanev to a six-year contract worth $27 million after acquiring his rights from Dallas'. (AP) CT is 34 who doesn't come across to me as a freak of nature type athlete like Jagr or Chelios were in terms of producing after the usual best before date of a professional NHL'r. I want CT's agent in my camp please and thank you.

Jake Thomas lining up behind centre would be gold.

Not saying our Organization is immune from this but I think Maciocia and Mass have misinterpreted what true meaningful leadership is.

Just throw the Mother F'r in and say okay produce and no excuses if you don't, agree?

And with that the Montreal Organization inches a bit closer to the Argos extreme suck level. They still have a long way to go to hit Argo level but I have pretty good confidence in Mass and Maciocia to help them along the way 🙂

From four consecutive GC appearances to this. Much too rapid for my liking.

You lost me after they.

I call them propeller heads but bean counters works as well.

At some point if we struggle to right this ship of 0 fer sure hope we land a few who grade out to your liking.

I've never read a post here that suggests this but I obviously haven't read all the posts.

It's always the special teams guys to go first when a ship is sinking.

Don't know yet until we try yea?

I'm not suggesting that nor am I suggesting the approach should be loading up on FA's, I'm just suggesting that if the Jets regress (or status quo) this coming season (regular and/or post season) is it reasonable to suggest that the Winnipeg's GM is looked at a bit more intensively at his end of year review? I differ from you that I think it's a reasonable expectation to win the cup small market or not. I'm just a curious guy in trying to better understand in a results based business what's the threshold that has to be attained where Chevy's job is at risk? Yes they've graded out high in some regular season play but yes they've also graded out low in post season play. I'm not suggesting he be fired but regardless of being a GM in Winnipeg compared to more favorable destinations he has accountability for regular and post season play that doesn't just sit on everyone else and if it's not attained to desirable levels (which I'm trying to better understand what these levels are) then what happens?
