  1. Why. It’s Chipman and Thompsons money. Totally irrelevant. It’s not like we are paying their salaries.
  2. But our D has allowed 70 less points in the same number of games. Sacks and pressure is nice but doesn’t lead to points not being scored against.
  3. He’s legit hurt tho.
  4. Problem is free agency right. Like every team makes atleast 1 or 2 changes every off season. So unless that game is in December in Florida. Or January at the latest in the southern USA (Florida), it’s not really the champs is it. Cuz changes even happen with the champs. And who rules you playing under?
  5. https://www.nhl.com/jets/news/roster-update-jets-announce-opening-day-roster-for-25-26-season Depth for sure. Looks and sounds like top 6 is Connor Scheifele Vilardi Nyquist Toews Chibrikov. bottom 6. I’m not sure but you got several guys to pick. Nino names lambert (why not try it) Koepke Barron Iafallo. Gus and Pearson scratched. Ford sent down (doesn’t require waivers)
  6. A tournament could be interesting. Or like champs play champs. They could do that probably but I’m not sure when cuz man the seasons just don’t really align very good at all.
  7. I go back to Demario Houston who was here with hall as DC and now Younger. Even Houston a vet admitted he needed a few weeks to get the terminology and schemes down. I would guess for a guy brand new to Canada never mind the cfl, it’s gonna take some time to get used to everything. I think our D scheme is a little more complex than BCs. BC spent money on betts and the DL and want the sacks. We seem to be content with just pressure and if we get a sack in the process, great. I feel some teams D live and die on sacks and pressure, ours ? Not so much. But then I see B.C. has given up 454 points through 16 games. Bombers 373 through 15. Weirdly enough riders given up the least. Then it’s us Calgary and Montreal at 373 through 15 games. BC actually well. Toronto has given up the most then BC then Hamilton then Ottawa. Then there’s a gap but Edmonton also over 400 points given up. Everyone else? Under
  8. I’ll be honest. I wish tsn promoted the cfl like fox promotes the UFL tho. That would be a huge start. You can’t say fox isn’t promoting it cuz they do. I just think it’s not geared towards us Canadians. It’s not marketed towards us. Im not sure most ppl know it exists even. I don’t see how that grows anything. UFL losing viewers quicker than the cfl.
  9. Why stop at a stoggie. Roll a fattie cuz you a pimp daddy, light that blunt up and say…… Pimpin’ ain’t easy. anyways go blue. Elk burgers are delicious and it’s definitely elk hunting season.
  10. Just don’t see the UFL as an option. It just doesn’t make sense. UFL is worse than the CFL. It’s really bad. Merge with them and that’s the end of football in Canada. Ppl talk about revenue. UFL don’t get any. It’s losing money. And has since it started. I mean why not wait till the UFL folds and then do American expansion but to places who actually drew crowds. So St. Louis would be one for sure. CFL would get 40k there every game probably. uFl is owned 50 percent by Fox and 50 percent by the rock and ex Wife so I’m not even sure how you merge there. You dont. Fox wouldn’t want the CFL. I mean it’s not gonna happen. Hey guys we need interest and to grow the UFL here in America. I know let’s merge with a league in another country. Cuz that will bring viewers to fox for sure. Ppl can’t wait to see the Saskatchewan rough riders vs the Birmingham stallions followed by Memphis vs Winnipeg in the murder capital per capita bowl.
  11. I wasn’t but I’m around now and Florida has won back to back Stanley cups and I dont think that’s good at all.
  12. The openly racist social media comments are wild. Americans are an odd bunch. Even I know Puerto Rico is a US Territory.
  13. Isn’t that what every sports league wants. No real favourites but a bunch of teams who could win?
  14. I think you can cuz the UFL starts way 2 early.
  15. Home opener will be the presidents trophy banner going up for sure. Little went up last year. Is Ladd up there? Wheeler will be probably. So 2 players possibly during the season and the presidents trophy banner and maybe even central division champs banner. No surprise to me. Nobody would play ville in their top 6 today. Top 6 D. Hopefully he plays well with Salo and learns to not play scared and timid. He’s a d man. He needs to go retrieve pucks in corners. The Moose might make some noise this season. They appear a bit stacked.
  16. 2 years to win a cup or he gone.
  17. Here’s one. Hold on to your hats and it’s gonna get crazy I’ll just say google Mark Sanchez former nfl QB cuz there is just so many pieces out there. Choose your own adventure
  18. I’ll say this. Bones was known as a D first system guy. Arniel was a D first guy also. They worked together and created this current system. Scotty tweeked it last year to allow more O creativity and it worked like crazy. I don’t like that we got old as a team like real old but maybe we will be ok. I mean aslong as CSV are ok and Helle is healthy. Cuz we been a one line team for 5 years now.
  19. Cole and Samberg were roomies and are bff. It’s not overly surprising Cole got hurt. But without Cole and JT you are basically left with CSV to score all the goals cuz 2/3 of line 2 is injured. Nino names Chib should be a line. They looked like fire when they did play together. Mad chemistry there. This team tho when at its best is a defensively strong really D first strong system team so if the newbs got Arniels system down, it might be like plug n play. And might not notice the difference really. Just the names will be different on the back. And if that’s the case, maybe we are gonna be ok. Jets have been a top regular season team for years now, they might even be the best the past more than couple seasons combined, definitely top 5 combined probably the last 3 years now. That’s cuz of the system. And Helle but D first so the goalie is really your number 1 D.
  20. No. Being a small offensive minded D man who doesn’t go in to corners to retrieve dump ins did. People love to overrate the Finn’s here cuz of teemu and teppo. Ville was overrated. Laine was overrated. Armia made one deke every 30 games and was overrated. Ppl wanted to pick up the bust pool party cuz Finn. People on HFBoards were comparing heinola to miro heiskanen. Heiskanen a legit top D in the league. Sami fricking Niku. Ville just another overrated Finn who busted in Winnipeg. The search for the next Teemu and Teppo continue.
  21. Doubtful. Who is gonna pick him up and play him. He was good 2 years ago but that’s a long time ago now. Bet he clears.
  22. Ironically having a bad bunny or Taylor swift half time show would be huge for the grey cup and cfl. But it will be some country crap. should be a Winnipeg themed half time with Winnipeg bands and acts. Maybe bring back the crash test dummies
  23. Plus who gives a **** about the UFL.
  24. I want to believe but they look way older to me. It’s a young man’s game.
  25. I’m cheering for the maroon or burgundy ones over the puke green ones. Let’s go red and black. Mix together and create beauty.
