Picks this week need to be in by Thursday @ 6:30.

The weirdest thing is when you hear him as a guest being interviewed on 1290 he sounds totally normal is actually a pretty good interview. It is like he has built up this play by play persona that he just can't get out of now.

Done

Tyrell Sutton won't be playing tonight.

Wally had a 4 year gap in coaching. 3 years with Benevides and 1 year with Tedford.

Hearing that Austin has appointed June Jones as head coach in Hamilton.

That's the trade off for the perks. Otherwise how would it really be any different then regular season ticket renewals?

This is fantastic.

You can't compare Little to Scheiffele as Scheiffele's contract is mostly RFA years. It just isn't an apples to apples comparison. Having said that I think $6 Million is the top of the range of what he would get. I'm not sure on term though. The question is really what can Little get on the open market and how close to that can the Jets offer.

Petan lacks the high end speed that players his size typically need to make the NHL. Has the hands and skill.

Even If this is what they did, they would still set box office records.

I figured it would be the time between episode 3 and 4. How he settled in to Tattooine and befriended Uncle Owen & co. Not sure how exciting of a movie that would make.

When I was in my 20s, I knew a few guys who went on steroids just to have a better physique when going to the bar. For something as competitive as college sports with a desire to get to the pros ... when you see the next guy doing them and getting results on them, it's hard not to give it some serious thought. Not saying it is at all right but once you get into the circle where you know a lot of people are doing them, it is easy to do it and get access to it.

http://www.tsn.ca/tavares-in-no-rush-to-re-sign-1.832364 Wouldn't be surprised to see Tavares go to free agency. Islanders have been poorly managed over the years. The question is how many teams would be able to offer him $10M in free agency.

Able to see it. Thanks for posting. If this keeps escalating, the States are heading for another civil war / revolution

PM me any changes prior to the game start.

Quite a few Winnipeg connections to the Vegas organization now. As they say, getting a job is more often about who you know not what you know. And as you alluded to earlier, Gary seems to be doing quite well down there as illustrated with his tweet: If you don’t like the Manitoba winters, Vegas isn’t a bad place to be. I like Hnidy as a broadcaster, brought an interesting perspective as an ex-player. Wish him well in Vegas.

Happy Birthday Bob!
