1. Patrick - no Brainer 2. Hischier - no brainer it gets interesting and I'd think LHD Valimaki and Heiskanen would be of interest as would RHD Liljegren or Makar I think if they aren't picking 1st or 2nd that they go with 1 of the D I just mentioned and that's honestly it's a crapshoot from 3 to 10. Depending on who picks where..you could see some interesting picks. Some teams like the Jets probably prefer D. Others prefer the centers probably like Middlestadt or Vilardi Basically 1 and 2 are guaranteed to go 1 and 2.. After that... who knows

So... who signs and where the second they can? I'll guess Dennis to the Argos

It's an extension. He wasn't a free agent. His contract ended after 2017 so it's a 1 year extension

Fun fact... unless you are a member of the first nations we all are here because someone In our family (likely grandparents ) immigrated to Canada

Everbodys favorite former poster G Bill giving Westerman a hard time for posting that pic and quote there.

Kevin Fogg and Kiernan Duncan have been mentioned as kick returner types. I don't think that you should be targeting a kick returner in free agency. Those guys should be relatively easy to find down south for rookie minimum

Difference between oshea and Maurice is... osh was a rookie head coach. Mo has been doing it for 20 years with similar results everywhere he's been.

Solid solid segment. Could see it coming but the way they did it was pretty good.

The constant line juggling is stupid... just no chance for chemistry to be built

Laine Scheif Ehlers dominated when they were played together. 2 bad periods and they were split up and haven't been reunited. Laine does prefer the LW. Ehlers does prefer the right side. It's Maurice being stupid. I'd probably go Laine Scheif Ehlers Petan Little Wheeler Cuz why not. Copp is OK but playing him in the top 6 is stupid. Armia Should probably stay in the bottom 6. Good defensively but.. not much else there YET... potential but not yet

He has a nmc but besides that... our entire d zone play is awful. It's not just buff

On the big show they were definitely talking about Maurice and him losing the room. How these last few games have reminded them of the effort we saw prior to Noel being fired. You can say we lost 3 2 to Chicago. But 5 2 it was but easily could have been a blowout without the empty net goals. Tampa? 3 1 but again easily could have been 8 9 1 also.

I'm sure not long after mania they will "shake things up" with another draft. I see Styles and possibly Cena going to Raw. Perhaps Roman to SD to be the man.

Lightning assistant coach

Interesting that 1290 Is talking about Maurice and how he's lost the room... cjob also talking about the same. The TNSE overlords must be sending out the message that perhaps Maurice is indeed on the hot seat. 1290 wouldn't talk about it without it being ok with TN.

http://www.bluebombers.com/players/padric-scott/160745/ This guy is gonna be one of our starting DT this season for sure.

Isn't MBT that QB the bombers brought in for 2 weeks late last year and then released and not on the roster anymore M Bethel Thompson or something like that

They were never core pieces. At 1 point bogo and Kane were but they certainly weren't the veteran leaders. It's Ladd wheeler buff maybe enstrom and stu and Thorburn

Bogo was young. Kane definitely GAD. Ladd? He was part of the veteran core who got Noel fired. Antropov? And the others? Seriously? ??

I'll be watching to see how high the GAD factor is. That'd probably one of the most important "stats" in every sport. Last couple games it's been non existent so we will see. GAD = Give A Damn Bottom line... we can sit here talking about goalies or coaches or whatever but if the veteran leaders don't give a crap then... it's irrelevant who starts or who coaches. Players play... coaches coach. I just don't think our veteran players should be given any more free passes. 1 coach down.. How many have to come and go until you start moving some of those veteran guys who just don't seem to really GAD

http://thehockeywriters.com/the-carolina-hurricanes-need-to-fire-paul-maurice-again/ So eerily similar

Like the PK.

The young guys have done well so I think if you move a vet or 2 you can justify an extension by saying the truth that the kids are alright

1 or 2 guys maybe 3 max. And I don't expect any of them to be "big" names. LaFrance being 1 of the 3. I feel those are the types of players we sign aka depth guys. Rotational type guys.

It's just that tho.. a spark and then eventually they tune him out also. A couple vets need to go. Wheeler and buff would fetch a ton.
