Lots of ppl have said it and they aren't wrong. They DO play boring hockey.

Detroit coroner just confirmed he died via suicide. He hung himself. That hurts. Man, Layne. Kurt. Shannon. Chris. Someone make sure Eddie is OK. Seems appropriate And if you don't believe the sun will rise, stand alone and greet the coming night in the last remaining light.

I have a couple but I guess this one works and was super random. So I work downtown and on break I go to subway at times on Fort/Notre Dame. I was in line ordering when 2 guys walk in and start talking and they sound so familiar. I order my sub and am about to pay and they both say... we will pay for everyone's meal in here. Sweet. (Reality was it was just me and them tho but still). Finally turned around to see who they were.... CM Punk and Kofi Kingston. Pretty cool. Got a pic on my old iPhone of the 3 of us taking a subway selfie. Pretty cool actually. Both were super nice and down to earth but u could sense that punk was a bit of a ****** lol. Still... that was pretty cool and random. Actually quite a few encounters over the years and all so random...legit accidentally bumping in to Brad Pitt like literally walking in to him downtown one time when he was filming the Jesse James movie. Jets players. Bombers players and even a couple musicians mainly Green Day Foo Fighters and Sam Roberts. Here. I'll throw in 1 random Jets player story.. 2011 I'm walking to work down Albert street. There's a guy in front of me and a bum in a wheelchair beside him. Bum falls out of wheelchair. Guy helps bum up and puts him back in wheelchair. I see it all as I've caught up now and say something like that's very rare to see and guy says what is and I said seeing a guy help one of these guys out like that. He's like thanks. I'm like you're welcome and I said oh BTW I know who you are and he said oh do you? And I said yup. Go Jets Go. He laughed and went in to some random food store. That guy was Zach Bogosian.

Yes. I think I would. I'd add Petan at most. No to ehlers or anyone like that

Rumor is Richie Hall may not be able to coach this year
Goalie replied to Mike's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Stubler probably or is he in Toronto still. I don't doubt the story but at the same time would like to hear it from a source with the bombers. If true... hope all Is well with coach. If not true... well, that's pretty evil. -
Your last sentence is bang on. In reality Schneider Bishop Darling were never real options. It's interesting that we are putting the unproven darling in that group tho. Just want to add... radio guys need to talk about things so just cut they are talking about Schneider or whoever... in the end all it means is nothing... they are just killing time. Speculating more so as fans.

Why. When raanta elliot grubauer and Steve mason are available and cheaper and probably better options and the best part all they will cost you is maybe a 2nd or 3rd rounder and a B prospect like Kosmachuk. Or in mason and Elliots case... whatever contract you offer them. Tessier writes for hockey buzz which is eklunds site so... in other words he's full of crap

Bombers interested in bringing a Soccer Team to Winnipeg?
Goalie replied to Goalie's topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
Some rumors out there suggesting it could be a WFC and TNSE joint partnership but who knows really -
For a team needing Canadians badly... riders had an interesting draft. Couple futures there.. I'm including judge which to me is an odd pick 2nd overall because they have Muamba in the middle already
-
Raises for Trouba Little Ehlers are all possible for sure. This idea you build a team by overpaying free agents is ridiculous and bullshit. They have no problem paying their own guys but they won't overpay for UFA to come here. It's pretty much common NHL practice actually. Jets are no different. Difference Is they won't get in to a bidding war for a UFA. It's called being smart. July 1st is called a Frenzy for a reason... GM'S are stupid that day. It's unfortunate tho we didn't sign David Clarkson or the many other guys who get severely overpaid on July 1st.
-
Maybe he's just not that good
-
I'm no expert like some folks pretend to be but couple DL. Couple OL. Couple WR. And a guy Justin Dunk had as his number 1 DB and a kicker who Rob Maver said was the best punter taken in years sounds good to me.
-
You are just a guy on a website who thinks he knows more than the people who actually do it for a living. Sometimes it's fun to pretend but I actually think you truly believe you know more than the pros.
-
Talbot had a year left when they traded for him and proved he's legit. Darling has played something like 82 NHL games in total and zero as the number 1 guy.
-
Adding Kyle Connor and maybe a younger D man like Poolman does make the average age younger. Thor Pav Stafford bring the avg age up quite a bit so by removing them and replacing them with younger guys yeah the avg age will drop.
-
Unavailable because he signed with the NFL. BPL I think.... best player left.
-
Why? When you can play Canadians elsewhere now. They aren't just OL and receivers anymore
-
Plus Darling while I like him and hope he does well.... reality is he's never been a starter. His numbers are very hutch like actually after the amount of games he's played. 4 million plus is an overpayment. I hope he does well in Carolina but he's not proven enough to get 4 plus million
-
Agreed. We use 1 and he's our 5th option. It amazes me when I read things ppl say about JFG for example. Awesome at times invisible at other times... the life of the 5th option maybe 6th if you include the Running Back
-
Doubt hawks would have traded him in division and while I like Darling, that may be a Pavelec bad contract. Not proven enough to get that much.
-
Toth lol. Man that guy is the worst "sports" guy in Canada.
-
Probably more about they gain nothing and take all the risks. But regardless
-
The Republicons are very much reminiscent of a college style fraternity. They are grown men tho so they are more pathetic than college kids

You blame bettman but reality is the reason they aren't going to Korea is because bettmans bosses including mark Chipman aka the owners, don't want to go. Bettman is just the guy who takes the heat.
