Bombers Post $5.1M Operating Profit in 2017
Bombers are responsible for managing the stadium, renting it out and whatnot. They collect the revenue. Triple B does not do that.

Correct. There is a $1/year lease payment to the U of M.

Restaurant/food thread
Back in the day, I worked at PH. Front and back of the house. Friday lunches were packed and very busy on other days.

Round 1: Game 5 vs. Wild
Just search for St Paul tourism. Just a bunch of ads for Winnipeg. Nothing odd at all.

Bombers Post $5.1M Operating Profit in 2017
The debt is owned by Triple B, not the Bobmers. The Province, in the end, will be booking the loss. And, they debt is mounting. The Bombers have paid what they realistically can but they won't be able to keep up with the debt servicing costs and the repairs/maintenance of the building. The costs are going up.

Too many votes in the East. Cassidy is a good pick but Maurice deserved it just a bit more, I think.

2018 NHL Playoffs
Perhaps we'll get insight like: How Matthews feels about the Jets. How Babcock would set up the Jets power play. How far would the Jets go if Anderson was in net. If the Jets played in Mississauga, would Cherry attend the games. Who's the best former Leaf to play with the Jets 2.0. If the Leafs were in the Central how many records would they have achieved this season. How much better is Marner than Laine. When is Laine a UFA. Where does Tavares start for the Leafs next year. There's a leaf on the Jets jersey, so are they truly Toronto's team. Jets owner lives in Toronto, so does Toronto own them too. If the game starts at 7 central, what time is that in the centre of the universe. Can Matthews get another Calder this year. Can the Leafs send Marner and Matthews to the Marlies to help them with Jr Stanley Cup. Why is the NHL still on TV when the Marlies are playing.

Yes, it was already moving to CBC.

Bombers Post $5.1M Operating Profit in 2017
Fact is, they've already lost a lot of money and are going to continue to lose a lot of money on the stadium. They might want to cut their losses and find a buyer at a deep discount.

2018 NHL Playoffs
I was hoping for double elimination. I will settle for watching Leafs' fans hopes go wayyy up before the Bruins crush them. I hope the Bruins are swept in the next round.

Round 1: Game 5 vs. Wild
This was from a few seasons ago but... This is what drives me crazy about PK. A clean hit that he made so much worse than it needed to be, then chased Ovie down. He's a whiner and he's dirty. From what I've seen so far this season, he's also a coward. He's up there with Marchand and Perry as players with lots of skill but enjoy hurting others without punishment.

Don't worry, Carter will keep everyone level-headed. He's matured with all his legal troubles.

Round 2 - Game 1: Jets @ Predators
Weird. They're desperate to get the Leafs to play, if they win game 7, on Saturday but leave three games on Friday? Why on Earth does the NHL have overlapping games when it's completely unnecessary? 2 & 2. They did it with afternoon games in round 1.

Upcoming Movies
I agree but it's certainly been the trend lately - to tie Spider Man to Shield and Tony Stark to give him a super-suit (and lots of 'cool' partners). It's the MCU.

Will we be better or worse?
Yes, I meant only in that they were not straight up replacing him. I bet he retires at year end. But I'm just guessing. I have no idea what the plan is.

Upcoming Movies
New Avengers opening this week. I'm so excited. I'm going Saturday. Just posted this in the TV Thread... ...the last two nights to watch Spiderman: Homecoming. I still hadn't seen it and I'm going to Avengers on Saturday. Also re-watching Guardians of the Galaxy I & II. Love those movies. Watched Civil War last month. I couldn't finish Spiderman because the HBO app wasn't working last night but I've been relatively pleased. It's a bit silly but they tend to do that with Spidey films.

I'm looking forward to the reveal. I stopped watching the last two nights to watch Spiderman: Homecoming. I still hadn't seen it and I'm going to Avengers on Saturday. Also re-watching Guardians of the Galaxy I & II. Love those movies. Watched Civil War last month. But those are movies and we're in the TV Thread.

I'm getting into the second half of season 1 now. I started a while back but ended my HBO subscription before getting too far. It's interesting but I feel like they could have done a lot more.- Will we be better or worse?
I disagree. I think if you look at the moves the Bombers have made, they're effectively squeezing Hall out, while letting him keep his title. i perceive that Hall is important to the players, so if they can keep them happy and make key strategic and personnel changes.- Around the NHL 2017/2018
I'm going to guess Goalie meant depth (parity), not top end talent.- Round 2 - Game 1: Jets @ Predators
Fear the WhiteOut! Accept the MustardStain?- Round 2 - Game 1: Jets @ Predators
This is going to be a big, physical series. I can't see them sitting Chiarot for Enstrom. I think they keep Toby in the press box. - The TV Thread
