Turf Laid Down In Ottawa
The field is done but the upper bowl seats aren't in, that may take a fair amount of time actually.

Jokinen to Predators
Antropov will forever be in the Jets 2.0 record books though, he scored the first goal.

Evander Kane Interview
Don't really care about Kane any more, he brings it on himself, the guy is just a goof really, needs to mature off the ice, has all the talent in the world but seems to have a 10 cent brain. I've said it before and i'll say it again, the Jets would not have drafted him if the team was here in his draft year, character issues galore. I think it's best to move on from Kane and get what you can for him, don't give him away though. I'm sure his value is quite high, teams will always take chances on 22 year olds who have scored 30 goals in a season before. I'm hearing Buffalo is a strong contender for him, hope he likes Buffalo more than he does Winnipeg. Good riddance really. I think he is a talented player but i'm not sure he will ever be anything more then what he currently is. His off ice baggage is not worth it any more. I'd suspect TNSE is not happy with him at all and will try to move him before the season starts and probably will move him before the season starts, my guess sooner rather than later. We don't need this gong show around. Send him to Buffalo or a big media market like he craves and watch him get eaten alive. Rangers,Philly,Boston.. No not montreal or toronto, they have nothing of interest really... These big market media guys eat pieces of **** like kane for breakfast. Once again, all the talent in the world but really getting to the point where he is no longer worth the off ice baggage he brings.

Tim Horton Field Update
Yeah, i've noticed that. Rarely to never available. That video the fan posted on the other site was taken july 6th i believe. It's obvious that it won't be done for quite some time still.

Jerome Messam signs with Riders
So let's just throw a hypothetical out there, we signed messam lets say, who do we take off the roster to allow messam to dress? a guy that plays special teams right? messam doesn't play special teams so... really, isn't that kind of counter productive to sign a guy like messam? we gain nothing but for him to dress, lose a guy who does play on teams. Makes no sense really. That's some poor roster management.

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
Garrett (i'm guessing that gbill) called in to the coaches show yesterday and asked about grigsby and his blocking. I can't remember exactly what o'shea said but.. it was along the lines of, unless you are in the huddle and know what type of protection they are running on that given play, then really, you don't know. It's not exactly what he said, it was more in depth but.. basically in a nutshell, unless we are in the huddle, we really don't have a clue.

Jokinen to Predators
With Mike Fishers injury, out 4-6 months, jokinen essentially becomes the preds number 1 centre. That's scary. Rumour has it they are after Lecavalier but still... Not a very good group of centres there.
-
Jets Sign Mathieu Perreault
Considering it's Frolik and who we have as up and comers, I think the Jets management would rather see a two to three year deal max imo. Frolik is a good player though, he might not be a consistent top 6 but he's a very good bottom 6, put him on the third line and he's all right. He can kill penalties, is responsible defensively, and from all accounts, is a good guy in the room, 3-4 is my guess, 5 seems too long.

Bryan Murray
Yeah considering they don't say what type of cancer it is, makes you wonder if it's something very serious. Hopefully he recovers.

Claude Noel Career Trak
Rumours going around that Claude will be named head coach of the washington capitals AHL affiliate the Hershey Bears so yeah, he will work and probably sooner than nate thinks.

Tim Horton Field Update
I'm not at all. but yeah it's all good. Anyway though, I'd be surprised if this stadium was done in a month. That video that was posted in the other thread, looks like it has lots of work to do. Honestly not sure why they couldn't just use the lower bowl as it looks completed but... guess there is a reason for that, i wonder if it has something to do with bob young getting 1 million bucks per game lost at THF.

Tim Horton Field Update
Man & people here say I'm angry all the time? What's so angry about that? Think you probably read too far in to my posts at times. It's a fan forum. There is never any anger involved in my posts. Is it cuz of the "swear" word? funny thing is, that wasn't even a swear... basically i said Americans aren't stupid but used the R word instead. .
-
Tim Horton Field Update
or just you know, play the game at mcmaster and explain to the viewers several times a game why they are playing at a 5000 seat stadium? That works too, Americans aren't ********, not all of them at least... if you let them know why, then there you go and how many people normally watch these games? you honestly think they care if its in a 5000 seat stadium or a 30,000 seat stadium? whats more embarrassing to the league? 5000 at mcmaster or 17000 at a 50,000 rogers centre?

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
a suspension though takes all his money out of his pocket tho.
-
Tim Horton Field Update
I don't know if the timeline was that ridiculous, it's a basic stadium, Not giving excuses for the delays here but we got a pretty spectacular time consuming roof, hamilton don't. Really no excuses for this one not being done. I'm betting ours would have been done if it didn't have the fancy roof Can't compare ours to theirs, it's more comparable to ottawas and ottawas looks like it will be done on time.

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
Should have been thrown out of the game. Our season would have gone down the drain if Willy tore a knee or broke an ankle. I think that should be a suspension actually. That's the way to send a message, i understand willis being fined, it wasn't really blatant and intent to injure, this one was.. the guy should be suspended for it, one of the dirtiest cheapest hits i've ever seen.

Gavins fined for dirty hit on Drew Willy
I watched that hit on Willy several times and it's actually mystifying what Grigsby was thinking there as he watches Gavins just run by him. That kind of "non-block" on that play leading to your QB getting smoked is a career killer. Ask Corey Boyd if you don't believe me. the piling on grigsby is going a little over board here, that was a very cheap hit, missed block or not.. wasn't grigsbys fault the guy went low and dirty on willy.

Tim Horton Field Update
A small part of me is enjoying this delay as ticat fans pretty much ripped the crap out of the bombers for their delays.. so a small part of me is enjoying this delay. Pretty basic stadium too, imagine they had a roof on it like IGFs... Yikes.

Willis fined for hit on Collaros
Kind of like a body check in hockey really ,willis being bigger, collaros not as big... sometimes thats what happens. Don't really think he deserved to be fined as he did seemingly make an effort to lower his shoulder. Looked shoulder first to me, but.. guess since collaros is a qb, he gets the benefit of the doubt. Gotta protect the Qb's i guess but... at the same time, seemed pretty clean to me.
