  1. Riders have a couple good backs in Zac Stacy and Marcus Thigpen but their ratio depends on Messam starting at RB... they just don't have the talent to start a Canadian anywhere else.
  2. Standard ACL recovery is 6-8 months. They expect Lulay to be ready within the first couple weeks of the season.

    Sounds like some of the newcomers are starting to push for spots as both Marcus Sayles and Tyneil Cooper have had some reps wit the starting defence today in place of Fogg and Alexander.
  4. I believe he is injured. He may end up starting this year but who knows? He has barely played and wasn't great when he did.
  5. Bagg - 33, Brouillette - 32, Clark - 30, Evans - 27, Hurl - 28, Labatte - 32, Messam - 33. That is an old core of Canadians. And their best prospects Cam Judge, Dariusz Bladek and Josiah St. John aren't exactly beating down the door to take roster spots.
  6. Maybe. The cap crunch likely won't hit us this offseason, but next offseason when Wheeler's deal is up. And Myers will be a UFA then anyways. Those Perreault and Little contracts are big roadblocks towards keeping all our young players and they're the ones that will be hardest to move.
  7. Good luck moving Perreault, Myers, etc.
  8. Fajardo is in BC

    Like I said he could very well be back at SAM and Fenner plays HB. We'll have to wait til he is healthy to find out.
  10. Atomic replied to BigBlue's post in a topic in Blue Bomber Discussion
    He played some halfback with the Lions. The media seem to be speculating that he will play HB here but I think the plan for him is to play dime and Leggett will be playing HB. We'll see.

    Anthony Gaitor is new and has been practicing with the starters at halfback. Also keep in mind Leggett will be returning and either him or Fenner will be taking an HB spot... likely Fogg's.

    It feels like Nevis or Neufeld are the guys this year. Outside chance to Anthony Gaitor or Steven Clarke.
  13. I guess we'll find out. I'm just saying that salary is getting eaten up elsewhere and there won't necessarily be room to pay all our prospects... good, young players are going to be traded away. I'd be okay with moving Perreault but would there be any trade partners? I'm not so sure.

    Brown's okay. Walby is the cream of the crop. Wouldn't mind a Brown and Walby show actually.

    So strange all these people who want to "take it to the PMs" but I look in my inbox and it's empty??? Almost like it's all for show or something. Ah well.
  16. Atomic replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    If you wanted it in PM then why didn't you PM me? Oh it was to publicly get your shot in... got it. Okay for you to do it, but wrong when I do it.
  17. 29 points in 79 games.... comparable players signing as RFAs are all making in that range. Connor Brown, Melker Karlsson, Radek Faksa, Riley Sheahan. All in the 30 point range, all 2M+.
  18. He doesn't do anything Roslovic can't do. Young bottom 6 forwards are exactly who you move. You pay big money to the core guys and fill the rest of the lineup with entry level deals and veterans on bargain basement contracts. Look at Pittsburgh, TB, etc... all the teams that have locked up their core. They don't have guys making 2-3 million in the bottom 6 and that's what Armia will be getting.

    Oh are you a moderator now? No? Then I'll continue to post as I please. Thanks.
  20. Atomic replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    It was. That's why I notified him. See?@wanna-b-fanboy Now this post is directed at you.
  21. We can't afford Armia, I would look to trade him.
  22. Atomic replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Then stop? Who is forcing you to continue?
  23. Atomic replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Because he just called me out. I'm not allowed to defend myself?
  24. Atomic replied to Rich's post in a topic in General Discussion
    Notice how @The Unknown Poster always says "conversation over" when he is clearly in the wrong. He will always debate to the last word when he believes he is correct so it's such an obvious tell that he is in the wrong when he starts to make spurious claims like I'm trying to get the thread shut down.

    Pretty interchangeable if you ask me. However this is kinda a silly discussion.... it's a jersey number.
