because Gord Kluzak was from there? When I was 18 I was thinking of trying out for the Calgary Dinos hockey team, and I went in to see their coach about it. He told me that their roster was full, and that maybe I should just focus on my studies and give intramural hockey a try. He was really good and classy about it, because he knew he was basically telling a young kid his hockey dream was over. That man was Willie Desjardins.

I'd like to see Willie Desjardins given another shot in the NHL. He got screwed in Vancouver. Punch Imlach couldn't have done anything with that dumpster fire.

Cal is my avatar and my favorite Bomber coach/GM of all time. It wasn't a knock on him. That was kind of my point though. Even Cal, as great as he was, reached a point where it was time to leave. Look at Wally. You don't think it is time for him to leave BC?

they are already circling the drain.

How did I know that my comment would cause this kind of **** reply. Even Cal Murphy had a best before date. It's not about Hartman, it's more about missing the playoffs. Coaches are hired to be fired. I was just floating the possibility that maybe it's time for a change of scenery, ala Babcock, for Coach Q.

might be time for a coaching change in Chicago.

not surprised that he didn't show up at QP today...

congrats to the future Mr and Mrs. Trouba.

Any interest out there for Little?

Jets definitely have to decide who they want to keep in the off-season, Stas or Little. Too many young guns that need to make the jump to keep both, especially at the salaries they both want or will want in Stas's case (unless he suddenly wants to take a big hit to play in Winnipeg). Roslo should also start playing center next year too, I would say, as he seems to be a center, not a winger.

Sounds like Stastny trade not going over well in St. Louis. It is kind of a morale breaker. Like trading away Wheeler, Little or Buff for picks when we're still in the hunt for a playoff spot, in some ways.

If we lose to Winnipeg, I'm trading you to Winnipeg.

Why has Wheels been grumpy?

who?

this time next year Kane will have a beard down to his waist.

1984 and 1990

not sure I want to give up a guy like Lemieux for a rental.

did the Sabres retain any salary? Sounds like the Blues are retaining some of Stastny's.

guess we'll see what we get for that pick we got from the Stafford trade last year.

so how's that Jets-Sabres trade look now?

nice to see Enstrom off the ice.

petan and dano - could do.

what do we give up for Maroon though. Another prospect and picks?
