I'm not a fan, she is a girl i wouldn't touch with a 10 foot pole. I like the crazy new yorker girl, can't recall her name but she's got a very obvious voice. The one who was convinced that her and christopher were gonna get married. LOL. Her and Red are pretty interesting characters. Actually, they all are pretty interesting characters.

Evander Kane Interview
Honestly, i understand what you are saying but i think it's a bit of a stretch comparing the best basketball player in the game today to evander kane, Kane might be a good player, he might be a super star but he isn't yet.. He hasn't won anything, no individual awards, no team awards. Say what you will but Lebron never left Cleveland cuz he didn't like Cleveland, he left because he wanted to go somewhere else to win. He might even sign with Cleveland this off-season. Honestly, kane might be our best player based on potential but the argument could be made right now that our best player all around is Blake Wheeler. I never said they were equal in talent or even at the same stages in their professional career, I'm suggesting the similarirties are pretty obvious as treating themselves as a business and not just as an athlete who wants to play. Makes sense. I agree.

Bomber Depth Chart Week 3 vs Montreal
More likely Bryant and Swiston have to agree as i don't see them dressing 7 OL. O'shea was asked if he would dress 7 OL and flat out said NO. Come to think of it, maybe they will dress 7 OL just in case Howard, play miserably. If he plays miserably, you put goossen in his place then, no way do they dress 7 OL. that's a waste of a roster spot.

Heatley isn't good any more. He's slow as hell and just doesn't seem motivated.

Chicago signs Patrick Kane and Toews - 8 Years @ 10.5M Per
They are. They are one of several teams who are up against the cap right now, Boston and Philly being 2 others for sure.

Evander Kane Interview
Performance and discipline? WTF? Performance? 67 goals 65 assists the last 3 seasons, one being a 30 goal season, the other prorated being 30 also, had 19 last year but did pass the puck off to peluso on an empty net, missed significant time with injury. Discipline? He was late for a meeting once. Besides that, what else has he done? Seriously, twitter? who gives a crap about twitter, Interviews where he vaguely answers questions? I don't see discipline issues actually. I see maturity issues but not really discipline issues. He's a 23 year old making 5 million bucks a year. He has some growing up to do. Pittsburgh wouldn't be a good fit for him, their media is as vicious if not more than ours. The guy needs to go to a place like Columbus or Florida or somewhere like that where he can do whatever he pleases and not be crapped on for it. So that eliminates every big market their is. Honestly if Kane can't handle our local media, how the heck would he survive in new york or pittsburgh or montreal or toronto?

Evander Kane Interview
Who cares what the media says, the media here is a big big problem, i think the majority of people like kane the hockey player, sure see lots of his jerseys around town and at MTS centre... think theres a perception that people don't like him, i don't think thats the case though, I think people like the guy, i just think people wish he wouldn't throw more logs on to an already burning fire. The guy knows the media here is out to get him and theres certain fans on twitter who are all over him for no apparent reason, stop fueling them... just shut up and do your job.. Not sure why he'd want to throw more gas on to the fire though. All that really matters is what his team mates in the locker room think about him, haven't really heard anything negative or positive from his team mates. If his team mates though start to get tired of his act, then it's time to move him. All the media bs, the money phones, the interviews, the favouring of tweets... who gives a crap really... if it starts to piss his team mates off though, then you got a problem. Until then though, nothing to see here. Just a guy who seemingly wants and needs attention. Nothing wrong with that. Think if Kane is moved, it's probably best to move him to a market where maybe they don't care as much as we do here. Think that would be what is best for Mr Kane. Don't want to see this guy fail and be on "where are they now' 10 years from now.. he's a talented player and i hope he gets his stuff together off the ice, it's apparent he has some issues, but nothing too ridiculous. It's kind of funny Claude Giroux slaps a cops ass a bunch of times, media makes a big joke out of it... what if Kane did that? Don't think it would be a big joke and that's a problem. He does kind of get unfairly treated by the media but at the same time, he does at times bring it on himself. It's an odd situation. He signed a long term contract with the JETS, ever since and even b4 then, media and some "fans" thinks he's wanted out but has really not given any indication that he does. With all that said, i have very little sympathy for a guy making over 5 million bucks a year, he should learn to probably shut up at times and be grateful that you can make 5 miillion bucks a year playing hockey.

Turf Laid Down In Ottawa
When you consider that Ottawa looks like they will be done on time and Ottawas and Hamiltons are pretty similar looking, What the heck happened in Hamilton? I really don't think you can compare this to IGF at all, IGF has a fancy roof that took some time to get installed, Ottawa and Hamiltons are pretty basic.. Compare them to IGF is actually not really fair at all to IGF. If we didn't have the fancy roof, i'm betting ours would have been done on time.

Sounds like Sears at safety and Sherman starts at LB, i'd suspect with Anderson out that means Thomas and/or Richardson starts on the Dline.

Evander Kane Interview
Honestly after listening to that interview again, what exactly did he say? the truth? right now he is a winnipeg jet and there has been rumours for 3 years, we will see what happens, we all knew at the draft that the jets were listening to offers on him. I honestly don't see why what he said was a big deal... Claude Giroux slaps a cops ASS repeatedly, not a big deal.. Kane answers a question pretty much honestly and is crapped on. I can't blame him for wanting out (if he does, he has never actually said that though) His actions by signing that new contract spoke louder than any of his words or lack there of words... With that being said, I'd move him because I have almost had enough of iths constant crap and i think we do get a nice return on him and i think that's the only way we move him anyways, we either get what we (chevy) wants or he stays a JET. It is what it is. It's really that simple too. Chevy don't have to move Kane, he is under contract so really The ball is in the JETS court, Kane can maybe ask for a trade all he wants, Jets don't need to trade him though, Only trade him if the return is worth it. If it's not, don't trade him. I suspect he is moved prior to the start of the season and i suspect we actually do get a nice return on him, I'm looking at Philly or Boston or The New York Islanders or Rangers even. Those are teams i think who would be willing to give the most up, that Buffalo rumour though... it's there and it makes sort of sense actually.. I don't know what we'd get from them but... i'm guessing it would be one of their first round picks in next years deep draft and probably have to be a couple ready now players off their roster, not sure who though.

Early Top 10 Ranking for 2015 Draft
I'd always always take the best available OL in the first round. I don't get it really with some, OL is our biggest issue by far, You keep taking those guys until the OL is no longer an issue. Christ our OL is such an issue still, looks like we will be starting 3 Imports this week and maybe next week, that's a problem.. Take the best OL available in the first round.
