Sewell would be a nice add......however he sounded like he was giving a change of job/life kind of goodbye...I hope he stays in football and we can sign him...What an awesome D line we'd have if he came on board Thought we were kicking the tires on Burnham BUT all for not....Most likely Walters bailed early when he could see we were most likely a pawn in the money game...Burnham playing both ends against the middle

I guess a lot of speculation comes from the fact Lawler hasn't reupped ...Then again he might be testing the waters to see what's out there...My thinking about Kenny ending up with Lapo is because of familiarity and they may end up offering more money (which works a lot of the time)....You mention a few negatives Booch, about him going to Ottawa...I agree with a few but sometimes money talks....Lawler obviously would like a raise and the way he played last year for us was great and he deserves one...Like to see him back, as the guy you know sometimes is the way to go....Any word on Grant and Richardson or are they going to try to test the waters

lol....sometimes the 'who dats' become the 'who's who'....Never know when you can come up with a diamond in the ruff....Sure would be nice to come up with another Milt........I know dreamin'

Hope you're right about Lawler.....cuz the options in fa are thinning down quickly

As well losing a quality guy like Lawler.....maybe Petermann too....Maybe Walters can pull one out of the hat....????

Lapo connection comes to mind....He knows how crowded our receiver stable is/was and I believe he'll make a play for him....Could offer him more cash BUT he's not the gm and Desjardins is pretty frugal...sooooo he could/might be back in Bomber blue

Nichols and Lapo makes sense....Ottawa still needs a lot of help .....hello Lawler and or Petermann...Kind of wondering about Richardson on our end as well

So is there any hot rumours out there regarding us....I have a few hunches....we might be in on Burnham and that Lawler is headed east....Burnham would sure look good alongside Adams BUT do we have the dough...??

48 th pic....ouch....BUT something is better than nothing....Speller is a good one and it's better than him taking up residence in the west...especially in the province directly to the west of us...I'm sure he'll help out T.O. ..and lord knows they need all of the help they can get

So the core of the CFL top tier have not changed......hmmmmm,,,he forgot to add resulting in the same ending....Cup to Bombers....heh heh..

Not great for the schmoes for sure...Jonesie left the igloo for Sask. pronto after a Cup win....also left a bad taste in a lot Esks. fans gobs....I don't see them as being forgetting or forgiving...I see them going in a total different direction..Isn't June Jones available ???? Nothing like sticking with the Joneses....

Unreasonable amount...range... /bag of peanuts/ Mike Riley money....doesn't tell you much ..I can't see the leo's trying to bag the guy with an anemic offer ....they're certainly not going to offer him the moon either considering the times.....sooooo Walters should try throwing him a good offer ,with the suggestion that this could be another Bomber Cup win season...(looking good so far)...The signing of Burnham could/ would go a long way in turning that suggestion into a reality

So when do we get to see Dubois.....definitely could have used him last night...although he would have been the only one who wasn't gassed...That quarantine can't end soon enough so we can get him in the lineup

Burnham....very intriguing....great hands and a great target for Collaros...3rd. down rumour has Meds leaning toward retirement...Goes on to say it was a good thing thing we signed the Legghio kid.....but who knows for sure with Medlock

Listening to Patrik being interviewed by the Jackets media, it seems to me Laine's hockey body is there but he left his heart in the Peg... not San Francisco ...Winnipeg...Good luck Patrik...except when you play us

My son lives in Cal.......doesn't rave about the night life there but he's married and older now and does a lot of reminiscing about when he was a Pegger

I've heard the same, regarding the city thing, about Ottawa and to a certain extent Calgary....No beauties there and there's a few holes in the states that the 'so called' stars want to avoid...The way I look at it is, you come to play hockey in the city that signed you...not go dancing and site seeing....Wpg. has a lot going for it....and you couldn't ask for a more rabid fan base for sports....Bombers and Jets...If a player doesn't want to join a winner here...tough ...go find a loser and site see

It'll be very interesting to look back on this trade and judge which team came out the winner..That will take time and anyone rushing to a decision will most likely end up with egg on their face...As things stand now, I believe each player has his own strengths...we'll see by the end of this season whose strengths shine the best...GO JETS

Digging a little deeper and my take is that this trade was affecting play....Laine played the first game and definitely was showcasing his talent....did a helluva job too, but his team mates had a good idea of what was going down...I noticed a definite uptick in all of the guys on the bench when Laine was suffering his 'so called' injury (not buying that one)... I think a lot of this behind the scenes stuff was affecting play.. Winning in Ottawa twice was a good thing and I think everyone is happy all round....Laine was being protected so he didn't get injured before the deal could be made...same for Dubois....and now that it's a done deal, I bet Laine is back on the ice for the Jackets pronto....Not too happy with the 3rd rounder for Roso ...thought we should have had a second BUT it is what is...I think it's a good trade for both clubs ... Dubois is certainly going to be happy going to a better club and if the money works out for a long term deal with him...we're laughing

Just face it ...Laine wanted out for some reason....and it's not like we're getting scraps for the guy

Dubois is no slouch....I think if we were getting someone for Patrik, Dubois works for me

IF the trade includes Roso....then we better get a high pic in return....Dubois for Laine...I don't have a problem with...kind of a saw off...BUT attitude by each player has to be considered...With Dad on the Moose....I think there'll be no problem in that respect...Maurice is a heckva lot better coach than Tort...can't stand that guy ...We shall see

My nose is hardly ever wrong...

I don't know guys.....Laine being out of the line-up (are they keeping him there because a trade is in the offing).....Same as Dubois...essentially being out of Columbus's lineup (going for an ice capade skate when on the ice for the Jackets,essentially)...hmmmmmm...I smell trade winds blowing and both sides are trying to keep their players who want out of their respective towns (apparently) under wraps....Could be I'm dreamin'.....and would hate to see Patrik go...BUT Dubois is one helluva player...I hope the heck we know what we are doing IF this is the case...Seems a stretch but ya just never know

I hope Patrik hasn't picked up that bloody virus....He did seem to be struggling a bit and going at half pace....so could be upper body...After the game he had on opening night this is a bummer
