    This isn't even a discussion that's on the table. Fret all you want. Nothing will change as there is absolutely no interest in taking away the 7 starting Canadian spots. There will always be Canadians starting. If kids get a chance to go to the NFL that is a good thing. It means the level of play of Canadians are improving which makes the game better. This is a non starter.

    That's why the CFL has to change its attitude about a lot of things. They wonder why stadiums are half empty. Fans need to be engaged & not just be expected to buy tickets. The CFL & TSN have to present much better draft coverage instead of that poor excuse for a show that they give us now.
  3. No one knows the true tale in Hamilton as to why he left. It'd sure be interesting to know exactly what happened between Condell & Austin.
  4. Krause must have been 45 in this picture.

    I guess Canadians are such a negative for you that you should just watch the NFL. What you are proposing will never happen. So quit worrying about it. The CFL has more other pressing issues than worrying about how many Canadians start.

    What has to give? Nothing has to give.
  7. Saw that Chuck Berry had died. Such a R & R pioneer. Influenced many great musical artists after him. Thing is though, while it's sad, he was 90. That' s a helluva long life that most of us will never reach in age chronologically. So for me , it's really hard to feel really a lot of sadness about it. At 90, this should be more about a celebration of Berry's life & not that he's left us. Now someone like Bill Paxton at 61, still was vibrant. Still had his career going for him who died unexpectedly. That was tragic as he was much too young.
  8. Yeah, just to come back after that leg injury is testament to the guy's courage, toughness & perseverance.
  9. Not good if you take into consideration his comments on concussions at the last Grey Cup.

    That makes no sense. Think about it. There'd be no Canadians at all.

    Guess you can blame Maurice for playing him too much as he pulled him for the 11th time this season. To you, it's always Maurice's fault when it comes to Hellebuyck. And you always have excuses for the guy.

    Give it another year.

    Chevy is going to be under tremendous pressure to sign a veteran goaltender during free agency & I don't mean another Al Montoya part 2. Someone who can carry the load. He can't sit on the sidelines this off season or can he?
  14. SpeedFlex27 replied to Floyd's post in a topic in Winnipeg Jets Discussion
    Don't know anything about him but he's probably 3 years away from playing, right?

    Cheveldayoff & Maurice should both be fired if we win just one of the remaining games left on the schedule.
  16. So they show both ends of the football? Go figure.

  18. Right now yeah, I'd be happier with a loss so we have a better chance in the Draft Lottery. What other hope do we have? I expected a lot more from this team. What I find frustrating is ownership's unerring loyalty in Cheveldayoff & Maurice. That they seem to have "jobs for life" with this team. And all the bad personnel & questionabledecisions that go along with it.
  19. Maybe you should have thought about that before you posted it.
  20. What. The. Hell. Are. You. Talking. About?? That has to be the most stupid post I have read anywhere over the past year when it comes to the CFL.
  21. No, What we need is a legit starter & Hellebuyck can spell him off when he needs to as his backup. You keep pumping this guy's tires like he's the second coming of Ken Dryden. More like the second coming of Andre Racicot.
  22. I don't think Chevy or Maurice come to work everyday worrying about their jobs like they would if they were with the Leafs, Canadiens, Red Wings or Chicago. They should be worried but they're not.
  23. Starter. We don't have one now. We have a guy struggling to play & find his way.
  24. They have to bring in a UFA next season. If it means they'll be overpaying then so be it. We can't throw away another year in net as we did this season. The Jets with solid goaltending could be a contender for at least a playoff spot. They aren't with the goaltending they're getting now. Yeah, they won last night with Helleybuyck in goal but how may have they lost because he couldn't make the save when he had to? They can't have another young goalie & a youth movement in net. So, throw away Option 1. Even Option 2 won't work. There shouldn't be a competition. Hellebuyck should backup. If fans want him to develop then let him develop behind a veteran. Play 20 games & see what happens.
  25. They have to do something.
