With Mason's condition as it is, that would make no sense whatsoever. Not happening.

Easier said than done. Not every business is willing to accommodate someone who can only work six months a year.

Kessel uses that line too. I think it's just self-deprecating humor.

Yeah for sure.

Just roster juggling. Hutch will be back up after the all-star break and likely starting on Tuesday. The Moose play tonight and tomorrow so I expect they wanted to get Hutch into one or both of those games so he isn't rusty for the Tuesday start.

Ehlers is terrible on the breakaway and IIRC has never scored in the shootout... though I don't think he's had many attempts

Probably... but he could also sustain a career ending injury during that year and the CFL will just say "sorry bout that kid, have a nice life." There's risk on both paths.

No I wouldn't. I consistently take the player's side in these situations. Football players get a rough deal.

Just give the guy a raise or release him. I don't blame him for not wanting to put his body on the line for 56k. He showed he's worth more than that... if they're not willing to pay, then they should release him and let him take his NFL shot. Clearly he won't be with the team either way without getting a raise so refusing to release him is just spiteful. Coaches and GMs are allowed out of their contracts to pursue better opportunities. Teams cut players and end their contracts. The only ones who don't get to walk away from contracts are the players and they are the ones taking all the risk.

I'm already cringing

Reported for damaging my ego

The thing is, we basically have our top 3 centres set for the next 5 years unless we move on from Lowry... and that doesn't seem likely. So putting Roslo at wing just gives him the best chance to contribute. If it was 2012 Roslo could play centre on our second line but those days are gone Jimmy, let it go.

No.... I am your fodder

He was in the top 10 before he got hurt. And Kovalchuk is number one. So yeah.

Ottawa scooped up Intzandt last season and he's still with them. Butcher I don't know what he's doing... I don't think he played football this past year but I could be wrong.

That's pretty debatable.

5 minutes for Dano and he still managed to be awful

Datsyuk and Kovalchuk could both still be in the NHL if they wanted to. Unlike every other player in this tournament.

Datsyuk and Kovalchuk on the top line may be unstoppable in this tournament

Stone Cold segment was awesome, everything else with the legends was just "Hey remember this?" Woulda been nice if a legend came back and announced they were wrestling again, or announced they were in the Rumble, or if a last-minute Rumble angle was set up. Like you say, something to get people invested in watching again.

They should have showcased some really big matches. Roman vs Miz was a good move but man it would have been nice to see AJ wrestle. Ideally you do something with some current wrestlers that makes a casual fan say "Wow why am I not watching this anymore?"

3rd liners on one of the best teams in the league... hmmm....

I don't know if I can differentiate between what is "limited" and what is "full". I only see what's available to me. Can you give me an example of what may not have been there before? Then I can check when I get home.

I like it. Win your division, then win your conference, then win the league. Its only unbalanced if you look at records alone... but the fact that records are developed by playing teams primarily in your division and conference means that this way of constructing the playoffs makes the most sense. Its all about win the division, win the conference, then win the league.
