This. Lawler's exact words were “I'll say it's a lot bigger than Winnipeg, a lot more scenic”. He wasn't exactly trashing the city by any means but at the same time he could have given Edmonton praise without comparing it to Winnipeg. Saying something simple like "Edmonton is a nice big place, it's very scenic" does the same thing without looking like he's putting down Winnipeg.

He got nothing up front but apparently he got $128k paid out by making the team according to Hodge.

I wonder if he's not still a bit knicked up. He went from a walking boot to practising in a couple days.

Yep. It's too early to know if the changes in BC will turn things around long term but at least their owner seems to give a s**t and is actively trying to make the team successful. The same cannot be said for Tannenbaum.

As much as that one gives me great joy, I can watch Hansen blowing up Ticats all day long...

Hopefully they were purchased at Costco - they take anything back, regardless of the condition!

It'll still be better than what the Riders will be raising...

That's Michael Buffer and yes he did! His brother Bruce has also done quite well for himself as the main announcer for the UFC.

Montreal has Vernon Adams, Trevor Harris and Dom Davis dressed so I guess the question about how many QB's can be rostered has been answered.

Some wives might be into that sort of thing too. 😂

The numbers for are MLB a bit odd too. 2 different numbers between 4 players - Bighill and Gauthier have 4 covered while Clements & Maruo got 0. I don't think I have ever seen both 0 & 00 used at the same time before.

Lapo's wife is a Winnipegger too and that hasn't stopped him from bouncing around. They know what they signed up for.

Long since muted but every so often I check to see what was said. This is a fresh wound so I'm a bit wound up! 🤣

Did you actually watch the game. The AV's were leading the nearly entire first half of the game thanks to an early goal from Makar... the Oilers didn't take the lead until the end of the 2nd period.

I think that's for the game, not the series. I guess giving up a two goal lead twice could be considered a choke but that's pretty marginal... a 2 goal deficit is not insurmountable by any means. Colorado themselves blew a 2 goal lead and saw a 4 goal lead cut to one, in the 1st game of the series.

Yeah cause Jets fans really have the high ground to chirp from when these headlines are all from the last few months of the season - you know the season in which the team could not even qualify for the playoffs, let alone make it to the conference finals. 🙄 https://winnipegsun.com/sports/hockey/nhl/winnipeg-jets/jets-blow-big-lead-against-league-leading-avalanche https://globalnews.ca/news/8726937/jets-blow-early-two-goal-lead-in-7-3-loss-in-toronto/ https://gameonhockey.ca/2022/04/22/finding-new-ways-to-lose-jets-collapse-after-hot-start/

It's now been confirmed. He played the entire playoffs with a torn hip flexor.

Maybe he pulled an O'Mahony and stubbed his toe? https://www.cbc.ca/sports/football/stubbed-toe-slows-blue-bombers-o-mahony-1.702261

Saunders took that title early this year... Ellingson should be safe!

Nope, all teams were required to finalize their cuts by 10pm EST, last night. The only team's yet to announce theirs are Sask & BC but their opponents for week one have already made their cuts. The Argos have the lastest season opener, with a week one bye, and their cuts have also been announced. **BC has now released their cuts, leaving the Riders as the only team yet to make an announcement.**
