CFL Insider Lawless Leaving Canada
He and Hustler had great chemistry on the radio. Good, entertaining show.

Is there an audio or video stream anywhere on the internet for the game currently ongoing?

CFL Draft
I'd expect him to come in and split reps 50/50 with Jake Thomas at the beginning with the better player taking more reps as the season progresses.

Some of the things he says are downright bizarre. I don't believe he has followed the CFL very closely in the past.

CFL Insider Lawless Leaving Canada
Nah that doesn't mean anything. He took the voluntary buyout from the Sun so he's likely got some cash and hence some time to wait for the right opportunity.

2017 NHL Playoffs
Have you been watching the games? Ovie is dragging that team down. He is a gifted goal scorer and a terrible captain. They will never win with him. He's moving down to the third line because he plays like he doesn't give a ****.

Actually I think the talent level in Vegas will be very similar to year one in Winnipeg with a similarly bare prospect cupboard. I'd wager they will hover around just below the playoff line in their first year. Beyond that, we'll see what McPhee can come up with. It will take some time to build their prospect base but they should start off with a nice set of second-line, second-pairing type players and an average goalie. Very similar to Winnipeg in year one indeed.

I know nothing about the player. I am referring to the fact that they are bringing in a 30 year old and paying him $4.5 mil for 2 years. That doesn't say "building" to me.

Depends what you're talking about when you say replacement. If you are saying H&L becomes H&P, that's never going to happen. The drive-home show has to be entertaining first and foremost, not just informative. Gotta have some measure of charisma for that. Maybe Penton's got it, maybe he don't. I'd lean more towards Jeff Hamilton.

The Health Thread
Yeah to be clear I'm not disagreeing with tacklewasher at all, just saying that just because counting calories does work, doesn't mean that all other nutritional information out there is automatically invalid and a scam.

4.5 actually. Pretty good coin for a guy who has never played in the NHL. For me the really interesting part of this is that it signals that Vegas wants to compete right off the bat rather than using the Chevy 5 Year Planâ„¢.

MTS Centre - re-entry no longer allowed
Two main reasons I've heard are smokers and people wanting to leave to get cheaper beer somewhere else between periods. Boohoo.

The Health Thread
While this is technically true, there is so much more to nutrition overall than just counting calories. And there are really good, legitimate reasons why low carb diets work so well. It's not a fad or a magic pill... it's science. You're right, eating less calories than you expend will result in weight loss. But that's just one part of the story.

Won't make a difference. If people don't like it they can give up their tickets to one of the thousands of people on the waiting list.

Wow. Rode shotgun with Lemieux and Jagr for a few years there.

Penton's problem is a lack of charisma. He's not bombastic enough to fill the Lawless role but he is well-connected.

2017 NHL Playoffs
Looks like they're hoping he can play in Game 5. It would be a shame if he can't. IMO the Senators' games have been the most entertaining of the postseason so far, regardless of the hype around the Leafs/Caps series.

Fleury/Helle instead of Helle/Hutch gets us into the playoffs, no doot aboot it

CFL Draft
Also keep in mind that the team likely still has hopes for Addison Richards.... if not he wouldn't be on the roster. Between him, the known resource in JFG, and the free agent pickup Matt Coates, I don't think they will be desperate for a receiver. We're talking about filling one receiver spot and it's the 5th receiver.... not a huge need IMO. But I'd be pleased to see Vandervoort or Behar here for sure.

MTS Centre - re-entry no longer allowed
Yeah I think you're right. I've always had to scan my ticket in/out when going to Moxie's. I wonder how Moxie's management feels about the change. Or maybe they are owned by True North?
