Anyone watch the Canada-Finland game last night?  I guess there are more players on Team Canada than Cowan and that McKenna kid but I don't know who they are, other than the goalie's mom who was a curler and was shown at the game with a drink in her hand (lol).  I am hoping Yager is more visible next game, saw him out there but didn't see him doing much.  

It was a good game, but yeah Finland played very defensively.   Finnish goalie was very good... faced 40 shots.   Carter George for Canada was equally good and Finns had some good chances.    No surprise that the players of the game were both goaltenders.
I agree that Canada will get better as the tourney moves on.  Next two games are against Latvia and Germany.   You're gonna see some firepower tonight.   All sets up for the New Years Eve clash against the USA.
 

I'm not opposed to Thursday's either... "Don't Give A F*** Fridays" are a big part of my life... But ya, a Friday night at th ol' ballpark is a great start to the weekend. Head to the cottage at VB the next day.... Damn rights. 

Me and likely most members of MBB periodically checking in to see if the Bombers signed anybody.

People acting like we haven’t been to 5 straight cups and that we are some bottom of the basement organization is a weird off season take. I’ll trust the ppl who actually do it for a living to get it right. Why go internal tho when you can get a guy who has moved team to team and won nothing. 

Remind me again, where did our current GM come from?

All I'm saying is none of us know enough about the internal guys to say whether it's a mistake or not. 
Key is trusting the people in charge to make the right decisions,  like they did with the DC position last offseason.

Man we need a signing announcement so we all have something new to argue about ... um I mean discuss.

Counterpoint: he was given a chance to develop and did get a chance to make the roster and contribute and nowngrts and NFL look. 
Player development can look at lot of different ways and just because you have an axe to grind and everything they do is **** doesn't mean you're way is the only way. 

A day early but Merry Christmas to you all.

Wild were missing some key players and looked absolutely gassed after playing last night. Landed in Winnipeg at 1am and then had to go through customs. 
...having said that.... Good on the Jets for taking advantage. 

They didn't come up short...

Jes 8th straight win over the Wild?

Like a bat out of hell—
Someone gets in our way,
Someone don't feel so well!

Mtrl has only gotten the rights to sign MBT prior to free agency,,, MBT might be better served to wait til a better opportunity arises with an injury to another starter. He could end up making a lot more even on a shorter season for him.
Also Fajardo in Edm is not a sure thing unless they pay his bonus.
