  1. That one at the end of the game? Doubtful. No injury and was he even assessed a double minor or major? Didn't look all that vicious tbh
  2. Jets need a legit sniper. Paging nik ehlers really
  3. Team out played the Rangers all game long. Out played Chicago too but just can't capitalize on their chances and they had tons of chances
  4. Buff gonna be suspended for his vicious cheap shot crosscheck on miller
  5. Buff gonna be suspended for his very vicious cross check on miller. Bad buff
  6. They can still win out and get 100 points and they did outplay the Rangers big time
  7. Not even close to being just about it. Will come down to last game of season probably
  8. We dominated but lost because of breakdowns and penalties
  9. Bad buff tonight that's for sure. Not a good game by 33
  10. You serious? Had no chance on all 3. Hutch plays and we lose too
  11. Then don't read it. Really that simple no? Some of you guys crap on pointless stuff
  12. They say 97 points should get you in. 6 games to get 7 points. Not must win but would be nice
  13. Henrik has struggled since being back and the last time these 2 teams played each other. Jets won 1-0 and that goal was scored in the shootout. Pav shut them out and stood on his head
  14. Lawless said it. Not Chevy
  15. Who said it would take 5 years?
  16. T bay event center apparently not going to happen
  17. We aren't re-building really, to re-build means you get rid of the older core, that's why toronto's rebuild don't start until they move on from kessel and or phaneuf even, There was no rebuild going on here, they were restocking the depth shelves but in order to rebuild, guys like Lad,Buff,Wheeler,Little, Toby,Slater,etc would all have to be long gone by now. I don't get this year 4 stuff, it's not year 4, it's year 4 of the Jets but for the most part, this core group of players outside of Scheif,Trouba,Lowry,Myers and the rentals like Stafford,Frolik even and Stempniak, have been together for 5 even 6 years now. To re-build means you have to get rid of what you had before, we didn't, we just tried to add to it and for 3 4 seasons now, they have been close but not close enough. EVENTUALLY, if this keeps going, you do have to re-build and that means building around the younger guys like the scheifs,troubas,lowrys,myers etc. You know, there are only 3 guys the Jets have drafted that are on this roster right now? Scheif,Lowry,Trouba. That's it, That's not a re-build, that's just the team had no depth when they came here and now they kind of do.
  18. Mateas didn't even compete at the combine did he? Not sure he's going 1st overall to be honest, could see a guy like Chung going first, from what i've read, he seemed to have had a very strong showing. Really, i think the draft is a crap shoot, I still kind of get the feeling that teams in the first round will take non OL guys knowing that several will still be there in round 2, obviously some teams will take OL, BC i think is a team that will take an OLINE, probably SASK too but outside of that, i could see the first round being a bunch of WR'S, LB's and DB's and then OL going in round 2. I've also seen some suggest that they think Walters will trade pick 2, or is wanting too, Reading the new blog by cameron the bomber site, i don't think that's very likely but why would you trade down? I mean, if there is a guy there at 2, Let's just say It's Demski, why not just take him? Why do you have to trade down to take him? If he is the guy you want, why not just take him at 2, Does it really matter where the guy is picked? I don't get this trading down stuff in the CFL draft, I get trading up, i don't get trading down, If there is a guy you want at 2, it's likely he's going to be there so why wouldn't you just take him and avoid the risk of someone else taking him. If he is the guy they want that is?
  19. Like i said before, I'd take 6 Tobys over 6 buffs any day. Yeah D men that produce points is nice but... D men who play D first and concentrate on D first help you way more. It's a tough decision with Buff, It really is. He's at that age where it might make sense to move on from him, Honestly i think these last 6 games are very important to guys like Little,Ladd,Wheeler,Toby,Buff,Slater,Thorburn, Pav, not gonna call them the Atlanta core but that's pretty much what they are. Next game is very important, let's see what happens. Do they come out and prove they belong or do they fold under pressure like they have for 4 seasons almost now. It's gonna be interesting to watch. Hoping for a big big win tomorrow night, but part of me thinks that the team is gonna come out and crap the bed.
  20. No Buff really isn't, It doesn't matter who he is playing with, You get the good with the bad, It's what Makes Buff buff really... It don't matter who he's playing with, he will jump up in the play and get caught and not hustle back regardless of who he is playing with. He is a good player but he is more of a forward playing D. He doesn't come back to help, all other D men try to get back to help when they get caught, Buff floats back, I don't think that is debatable really. He is what he is, I'm glad i'm not Chevy, the smart thing might be to trade him, then again, if he is willing to sign a short term not huge money deal, how can you.
  21. I'll say this, I don't really consider myself an expert, actually I'm not, i don't think any of us really are... What we tend to do is look at these incidents and think how can we stop this from happening? as a non expert on the situation who has only been on a plane like twice my entire life, ok 5 or 6 times if you count ones that weren't flying , I don't know what to do. Leave it to the experts really. They know best. Reality is, if a pilot is crazy and wants to end it, theres nothing anyone can really do, instead of talking about what to do with the plane, the discussion should be.. how can a guy with mental problems be allowed to fly an airplane? It's not about reinforcing doors and putting bathrooms in the cockpit, it's about how the heck can you make sure that your pilot isn't insane really cuz you know what, can do what you want really but if the pilot or copilot wants to end it all, they can and theres nothing anybody can do about it.
  22. i'd probably use at highest a 5th round pick on him. Maybe even a later one actually.
  23. Reality seems to be if Dana didn't let Ronda do what she wants, she would probably go right to Vince and say... where do i sign? Cuz she's a big big wrestling fan and you know if she wanted too, and eventually i do see her getting more involved with WWE, Vince would be all over that in a second. And you know what, WWE routinely mentions UFC on tv several times, it's not like Vince hates it, he just doesn't see it as competition. I think Dana and Vince are both businessmen first and foremost and both know good business when they see it, UFC has no issue showing heyman, lesnar, undertaker in the crowd at UFC events, WWe has no issue mentioning UFC and even using some of their workers, heck this goes back to Ken Shamrock, DAN "the beast" Severn stuff, WWE and UFC i bet have a very very quiet business relationship. People may think Vince hates UFC but... i get the feeling that vince and dana have a great relationship and they have cross promoted each other several times over the years. Several times, so many to count even. UFC isn't competition in Vinces eyes and i kind of agree with him, UFC is a real legit sport, WWe is more entertainment with some "sport" mixed in, They definitely have a relationship of some kind for sure and i don't think theres any doubt about it.
  24. I think he deserves a chance and if he was still there later in the draft, i'd take a chance on him if i were the bombers.
  25. and One more thing I will say, Everyone seems to love Buff the Offensive threat but his D zone play is non existent, was last night apparently, the guy floats back, just reading through some comments on hfboards and lots of people are saying, yeah buff scored 2 goals but his d zone play left lots to be desired. I'm not sure what to do with Buff, he's a good offensive d man but d men are supposed to also play D and he doesn't do that very often, if buff pinches and gets caught, he's not hustling back to help out. That's a problem. Listen, Karlsson from Ottawa is a good Offensive D man but the guy is horrible in his own zone, similar to Buff, great offensive D man but not so good at playing D. I'll take 6 enstroms over 6 buffs any day really. You need D men who play D first, not guys who float out there, I get it, i love buff too, he's a great personality and one hell of a player but... he's not perfect and if he wants to play D, well, he needs to actually start playing D. The way i see it, Buff might be listed as a d man but when he's on the ice, you pretty much have 1 d man out there with 4 forwards really. Trouba and Myers play better when they get more time on the ice, They are younger, they are better in their own zone, they are legit d men, they bring some offensive threat but... for the most part they are good d men first, buff is more of an offensive threat than a good d man.. In My opinion, i want D men who can play D first.. Would i trade Buff if the right offer came along? You darn rights i would. Would i try to re-sign him first? I probably would but i would want him to commit to playing D first, not just being called a d man but to actual concentrate more on playing D instead of always trying to jump in the play and become a forward out there. When Myers or Trouba (apparently had a rough game last night) jump in, they hustle back to help out, Buff does not, that's a problem. I'm not sure i could justify paying buff big big money when he is a liability in his own zone.
