Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Goalie replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Sure but looking at the roster. He’s better than Korn. Schmeck is hurt and also not great. Lawson for as much as he’s hyped isn’t really doing much either. The problem with signing Jake is because of lack of depth and the vet card, he’s starting. You could argue he’s our most consistent Canadian DL also and that’s just lack of depth big time there. I actually think the Winnipeg rifles DL they brought in at camp was our best Canadian DL. That says it all. -
Game 1 - 15th Anniversary Gifts of Trophies & Banners
Goalie replied to FrostyWinnipeg's topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
I’m not sure we find out tonight. It’s not like 1 game gonna say much. I’d honestly give JT 20 games before I start looking at things maybe even more. He’s gonna need time. Tonight I’ll be checking out Nyquist koepke and Pearson. -
I’d love to see them light up the outside more. Should be mandatory for businesses downtown. Especially with LED now.
-
if he’s listed as doubtful, it’s more than wife had a baby going on there. I feel they trolling tho and Demski plays.
-
David Gustafsson on waivers. They kept up the kids and ford. 25 years old and 20 points in his nhl career means he’s probably gonna clear.

Former Bombers in NFL (and spring leagues) news
Goalie replied to WinnipegGordo's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
UFL is like an updated XFL. Owned by a dude and his ex wife and a tv station. It’s all about ratings and gate I’d assume. They doing ok in a few markets (st Louis would put 40k for the cfl ) but obviously not so well in 3 they just moved to smaller venues like oh I dunno the size of BMO or MCGill or Hamilton Stadium. Any news on Elgersma. Lol -

Jake Thomas to the Atlantic Schooners in 2027. E5 I wonder if he’s interested in coaching or if he’ll just go home after this season. I think the writing on the wall there. I mean I’d hope they don’t give him a new contract cuz if they do he will sign it I’m sure. it’s one of those well they keep offering me money to play so why not kind of things. How you fix it is in the off season you don’t sign him. Kyle signed him. Don’t care if ppl say O’Shea, Kyle signed him. The GM signed the contract. Memo to Kyle or New GM… Don’t sign Jake Thomas. -
Most guys likely playing through minor perhaps even more than minor injuries. Demski definitely been banged up this year so no issue giving guys who are likely a bit to more than a bit banged up a day or 2.

I knew we’d win the grey cup against Hamilton cuz it was my daughter’s birthday and we went to watch a movie while the game was on. Cuz birthday. I remember just having this feeling the whole time like damn the streak is over and sure enough got out and it was. I preferred beating Hamilton in Hamilton tho. I remember tsn pretty much crying and the stadium just in absolute shock. It might be the greatest sports moment in Winnipeg history honestly. We crushed the city of Hamilton tsn and the Ticats hopes that game and they haven’t really recovered since honestly. They look ok this year beating up on 2nd string QBs pretty much. But, they still feeling that crushing loss. They also now have the longest GC drought.
-
He puts up 100 points a year. If he was up 2 years ago and scheif and Helle were up now trust me Kyle would be 8.5 and 55 and 37 be 12. But I lol’d tho when I saw Eichel got 13. KC isn’t even top 5 paid in the league lol.
-
In 2025 with social media it’s definitely debatable
-
Yup. Zach tends to struggle in the true frozen north. Hopefully Brady is good to go and with that the OL including an old oft injured Neufeld aging Stan Krap kolo who also had a day off I see, Wallace who was iffy to start 2 games ago and a solid Randolph. What could go wrong.
-
8 x 8.5 for both 55 and 37. It was 66 ish million. I can’t remember the exact aav but it’s. 8.5 for Helle and scheif is also 8.5 actually. They signed the same deals. they have 7 years remaining

I see they also brought in a couple DL who sound like maybe immediate upgrades to our current crop of crap. So play them. -
Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Goalie replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Put Doug brown and a healthy prime stove at DT and I bet we have more sacks. It’s the talent or lack there of. None of our DTs are elite. They are all just ok really. None are brown or stove for that matter. 1 prob makes a difference. Ffs Jake Thomas is a starter. -
Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Goalie replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
I don’t disagree. As a fan I loved the pressure and sacks. It made me jump out my seat and cheer. I honestly prefer the more I’ll call it aggressive D. I still do. I’d love for them to really get at the QB. But they don’t and haven’t since well it’s really since Jeffcoat “retired” but I’m just saying whatever they do is working pretty well also. I’m also pretty sure it’s our O who has **** the bed more. I mean pretty sure hogan has taken more heat than JY. Maybe it’s time JY took some heat tho also. Brown might enjoy the D tho as he was a legit elite defensive tackle. But you put him in there in his prime and take Jake out and maybe it’s likely we do have more pressure and sacks just cuz the talent level between a brown and any of our current DTs is so far apart that brown just makes our ends better -
Dreger adds 55 million in salary. 41 in basically signing bonuses. He’s gonna get paid 5.25 million every July 1st for example for 8 years. Maybe every October 8.
-
Full no move clause and bonuses in the contract. It’s a huge win. Dude wanted to be here. Didn’t want to be anywhere else. Put it in his contract even. People should be celebrating this. Biggest signing in Winnipeg sports history and the guy signing it genuinely wants to be here and he’s an American.
-
12 per. 28. 5 ish for all 3 of KC Scheifele and Helle for 8 years. None of our stars need to be paid again and are all jets for life. That’s a huge win for the Jets. Josh is next cuz Lowry ain’t getting a huge raise. See when you break it down it’s about 9.5 each for the 3. That’s really solid when one dude who both KC and 55 out produce got 17. those 3 are our stars. They get paid like it. Josh is our other star. He will get paid the most on D. He will get 9 or 10 per. The others won’t. We could hope one day a guy like Salo will cuz it means he’s a star. Vilardi signed long term also. I mean none of them are up soon. Josh and Lowry but like I said the stars will get the bags like the qb did in the cfl, and there’s lots of space. Florida has multiple players making 10 don’t they. We got 3 making 28. It’s normal now. It’s actually, Helle and 55 took discounts.

Blue Bombers - 2025 Regular Season - Discussion Thread
Goalie replied to Atomic's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
They don’t seem to care about pressure and sacks as much as other teams. They have allowed 70 points less than the guys who do tho. So whatever the bombers are doing is working better than what B.C. is doing. You and others want them to concentrate more on sacks and pressure. That’s not really the Younger way tho. Our D is built around our defensive backs really. It’s built around coverage and basically confusion. It’s not about sacks and pressure and hasn’t been since JY took over really. -
Have ppl actually been to practice since the 90s? Cuz it ain’t what it used to be. My daughter and I checked one out in August I believe, she was off school still and we left after 15 minutes. Went to bomber store and that was that. Nothing happens. There was more contact and ppl moving faster at the bomber store than on field. Less shouting but definitely more contact at the store cuz I bumped into a rack and it almost fell over. That was more than we saw on the field. At this point of season I’d think keeping guys like Neufeld healthy would be more important cuz we all know if he got hurt in practice most of you would lose your **** on O’Shea. Neufeld is what he is. He isn’t gonna be getting any better or worse. He is what he is. I’d rather keep guys healthy than send them out for meaningless practice. Honestly they should change practice to walk throughs cuz essentially that’s what it’s become.

No we aren’t. It’s Thompson and chipmans money. Ticket sales make up less than half the cap. The cap is rising. 1 guy making 12 million when the cap is over 100 is irrelevant. Not everyone gonna be paid their 8 year 12 million per like KC got. this isn’t the bombers. You aren’t paying their salaries. They have billion dollar tv deals and billionaire owners. Your 1980s thinking is not relevant in 2025. oilers have 2 guys making 26.5 million. Jets have KC (he signed) at 12 and Helle and Scheifele at 8 each. So 28 for the 3 stars. Edmonton 26.5 for 2. lol at thinking 3rd or 4th liners gonna get these deals cuz they won’t. actually. Like the cfl the cap money will go to the stars not the foot soldiers. And that’s what’s happening cuz it’s the stars signing these big deals. Meanwhile Chibrikov signed 2 years 850k per. Iafallo got 4 ish this off season. Not everyone is gonna get that bag. Scheif Helle signed 8 years. They are making 8 for 8!years. Next guy up who might get paid is Josh. That’s it tho. nHl is not a gate driven league. It’s a billion dollar tv deal driven league. Canadian teams are the only ones who sell out consistently and ppl think it’s their ticket money. lol. It’s not. It’s the tv deal. The prices are going up with everything. Going to a nhl game is not a necessity tho it’s a luxury.
-
lol at practice. You mean light jogging and no contact.
-
Why. It’s Chipman and Thompsons money. Totally irrelevant. It’s not like we are paying their salaries.
