Is that all? Hell that's not even the size of one year of Trudeau deficit. Perhaps Justin should be a consultant on this project.

not sure when you know if someone is "ready" or not. Watching the Jets "Young Stars" games in Penticton last September I'd have said that none of them were ready, as they all played awful. But here we have Ehlers, Kosmachuk, Petan, De Leo, Morrissey and Hellebuyck all playing up this year and contributing. Petan actually looked pretty good last night, but of course, he was playing against Vancouver's farm team, and an extremely lethargic-looking Sedin twin combo. Anyway, given I've never seen Poolman play I am in no position to judge his readiness. Perhaps he will surprise in TC, though I know if he's an RHD he's already going to be cursed as we apparently need LHD only.

yup - any one of those three and I'll be extremely happy.

Poolman (love that name) plays for North Dakota. They play Northeastern first, while Connor and Michigan take on Notre Dame. It will be interesting to see if Michigan can win it all. It would be great if Poolman can find a spot on the roster, he's another big kid. Myers, Melch and Poolman - now there's some size on the blue line. No more smurfs on D.

Sure liked seeing Melch out there with Myers. The Twin Towers! Awesome!

They should have sent the Canucks home early and just had the Jets play the Winnipeg Blues. At least they would have tried. Were the Sedins even playing? I don't know if I saw them even register a shot. Just brutal effort. The creaking you heard was the last few Canucks fans jumping off of the bandwagon.

I doubt it too. I also never thought that Buffalo would trade Stafford, Myers, Lemieux, Armia and a first rounder for Kane and Bogosian. Weird things happen sometimes.

I've seen at least one poster say that Tkachuk is no good and that he is over-rated. Several times. Anyway, I do get that we have more pressing issues elsewhere. My desire to see Tkachuk drafted isn't just about him being a great player (and he is) it's about having another Tkachuk playing for us. Nostalgia.

Best of luck to both gentlemen, and thank you for all of the great memories.

Be ready to be traded next season. Travis Hamonic, come on down!

Tkachuk is over-rated. Because he plays with good players. Apparently Motte and Compher are total broken down bums that Connor has to carry on his shoulders while skating through entire teams and potting goals single-handedly. I was wondering why all of his goals are unassisted. EDIT - I see that Motte is a pick of the Blackhawks - should have tacked him on with Dano instead of taking that 2018 pick. Connor and Motte together again!

Bring back the Melch!!!

Where was Dano? Down with the flu?

that was Kesler holding his stick

That wasn't the high road?

Connor-Little-? I'd like to see what Little and Connor can do together. Leave Ehlers/Scheif/Wheeler alone.

Glad we didn't disrupt the tank by accidentally scoring in the OT period. That second goal was a classic example of why I want Enstrom off this team. Silfverberg just skates up to Enstrom and takes the puck off of his stick like he's taking candy from a baby. Not acceptable.

Currently sitting in SeaTac airport waiting to connect to New Orleans. I will watch next week. All I can say is that I wouldn't have Enstrom on my team. But that's me.

Highway robbery!

pashaw. I'm from Manitoba. Only buy my books at used book stores. You can't haggle down the price of a used book from $3.25 to $2.00 on an internet site.

I don't think that was the actual quote. Someone must have changed it. I read online that it was Abe Lincoln in 1846 who advised that you can't always believe everything you read on the internet.

half of his height is hair though
