Boudreau is originally from Toronto & his family live in St Catherines. You might be confusing him with Mike Duffy.

hefney signs 1-day contract, retires a bomber
IIRC, he was more critical of the team before he was released than he was after. Darren Cameron's article mentions that he got in trouble with Mack/Burke for tweeting stuff about players they cut & how Huff wouldn't put up with that kind of stuff. Jovon has been much more vocal since leaving than Hefney ever was.

Different companies. Canada Amusements (I think that's the name) did the one at KP & Wondershows did Rona.

hefney signs 1-day contract, retires a bomber
He played 3 fulls seasons (and a partial fourth) and was a 3 time all-star for us, and helped get us to the Grey Cup. I think it's a small but classy thing for the Bombers to do, recognizing past players who have made an impact for us. His own thoughts on why he wanted to do it:

They can always move it to Panet Rd. The one they have set-up there now is fantastic if you're looking for a trip to the hospital. http://winnipeg.ctvnews.ca/investigation-underway-after-incident-in-parking-lot-amusement-park-1.2884238

Bell To Buy MTS
The curse of the Goldeyes! Mind went bankrupt a few years later and then CanWest followed suit. I was working at Mind around that time and people were furious that they were spending the money on that kind of thing when they had serious financial issues. People were being laid off on a regular basis but there was still money for naming a ball park?

Bell To Buy MTS
They can change it to arena instead of centre. Similar to Rogers Centre in Toronto & Rogers Arena in Vancouver

Bell To Buy MTS
True North isn't going to throw money at themselves though. Huge money in naming rights these days so if Bell (or someone else) offers them a ton of cash to stick their name on the building, they're going to take it.

Game 83 Jets @ Draft Lottery
This is why I didn't want the Leafs to win... their fans and media are going to be unbearable.

He's hurt and won't be ready for the start of the season. He tore his ACL in November and that's why Hamilton is letting him go.

- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)
Danny could legitmize Jon (eventually) as well. If his parentage is both Stark/Targaryen, he would be the unifying link between the two families. Danny might legitimize him as a Stark in exchange for not chasing his claim to the Iron Throne (which I don't think he'd want anyway, much like Ned didn't). I can't ever see a Stark/Lannister alliance, not after everything that's happened to the Starks. I think best case scenario for the Lannisters is that they don't get completely wiped out. Tyrion has mended fences with both the Targaryens & Starks (Jamie has helped with the Starks as well) but there's still a lot of bad blood.- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)
Ramsay was legitimized by Tommen.- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)
Sansa & Brienne are headed for the Wall so I'd say that it's a safe bet they have Jon & the wildlings with them when they go to Winterfell. They should also have most of the other northern houses with them. They mentioned House Umber & House Mandlerley as having some of the biggest forces in the north both of whom are loyal to the Starks. I found it interesting that they finally mentioned the Manderleys last night. Lord Manderley plays a big part in the books (at least the latest happenings in the North) but hasn't been in the show yet.- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)
A bastard can be legitimized by royal decree (like how Ramsay went from Ramsay Snow to Ramsay Bolton). If Jon were legitimized he would be heir to Winterfell as he is older than Sansa (and I believe the sons always go before the daughters).- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)

They've already started slowly bringing things together and you'll see it more over the course of this season because there are only 2 more after this one.- Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)

1st Bison ever to get drafted in the NFL. Quite the accomplishment for a guy who had never played a down before university.- 2016 Playoffs
Maybe you should stay away from the mem cup then (and McMahon when the bombers play)! I'm starting to see a pattern here.- NFL Draft 2016
Nope and nobody was really expected to go until tomorrow. Onyemata had a very slim chance of going in the 3rd round but it didn't happen.- 2016 Playoffs
Nolan Patrick is showing why he's projected to go #1 next year. 5 point night in the biggest game of his career so far. He's scored or set-up (3 goals, two assists) all of the Wheat King goals, to punch their ticket to the finals. - Game Of Thrones (Spoilers)
