Free Agency 2016...
Capiccotti and Lawrence are "barely recognizable names"? I know our team isn't perfect or anything yet, but come on. You would be ecstatic if those two ended up in Hamilton. Really not sure what there is to argue. Saskatchewan got big names, Winnipeg got big names. Both have immensely improve over the last two days.

Free Agency 2016...
We just got Capiccioti, Lawrence, Chambers, Jones, Foster, as well as several other decent signings and you think we haven't gotten better? Ok. Not trying to brag, but it isn't true.

Free Agency 2016...
Likely the former. Sources are saying he's looking for around $200K. He probably would have signed at the right price. I'm not shocked. I wouldn't be surprised TBH if we were going after Capiciotti. The only question is whether Jones wants to pay that much to get him or not though.

Probably Capcotti, though I wouldn't mind Laurent either. Yeah, he's yours. I'm not taking Harris at 200K.

Yes, they aren't great teams, but they are still teams we would have struggled against without McDavid. Get Klefbom back, and trade Schultz away, and we're good.

Uniform changes with Adidas may not be dramatic
Yup, the solid gold is actually ok. Also brings out the blue on the pants more.

We should never have let him go in the first place. He was clearly better than Allen, IMO. Honestly wouldn't be disappointed if we got him back.

Royal blues at home. White with royal blue on the road. Ditch those god awful gold jerseys as well as those argo-esque jerseys, and we're good to go.

13 goals in the last two games for the Oilers. I honestly think we'd be in the playoffs right now if McDavid had played all season. He makes all the difference, not only in his own play, but also in the chemistry he brings.

This is one of the most internet message board arguments out there also. Man, so many people up each other's throats. Jokes or not, not sure why everyone is criticizing iso's post. All he's saying is that he thinks other people want the royal blue jerseys (and I agree). He's not passing it by as fact, it's his opinion.

So you're going to quit on the team because of a jersey? I know they aren't great, but this is ridiculous. It's the team that matters, not what they're wearing.

Bombers Sign Macho Harris and DL Sheyon Green
Lol, yeah I didn't notice either. I had to check on twitter.

Yeah, they're meh. I don't hate them, but white and blue road jerseys would be way better.

Yup, so many of us thought his career was over after his last injury. So glad he proved us wrong. Guy's a warrior.

Dressler Signs with Bombers
Pretty sure that's just the year. Checked the Bomber website, and Dressler doesn't have a designated number set yet. Having a feeling they won't until the roster is set in stone.

Dressler Signs with Bombers
Great signing, guys. Hope he bodes well for you. Best of luck to Weston and the Bombers in the future.

IMO, he should be extended, but I wouldn't put it past Jones to release him.
-
Around The League Off Season Discussion
I would sign Smith over Dressler, IMO. Younger, and already nearly at Dressler's level. I'm hoping Jones extends him.
-

I wasn't, because I had no idea they were being paid that much. I thought Dressler was only making around 200K, not 240K. I'm not even sure that any of us knew about their contracts.

Rider fans should be screaming bloody murder at Taman for the completely idiotic contracts he gave those two. That being said, they would have went elsewhere likely otherwise. They were still being overpaid, though.

Really sad to see Dressler and Chick go. Wasn't sure what I thought of it before, but it does relieve a lot of cap space. I'm hoping Dressler will go to an Eastern team, but if he goes to Winnipeg, I still wish him the best for you guys. Since somebody mentioned it, I am probably going to change my username. Not because I'm bailing on Dressler (he will still be one of my favourite players), but just want something different. I've considered it before Dressler left anyway. Part of the reason we released Dressler was likely to do with Smith. I doubt he goes elsewhere.

I don't use it either. I hardly notice it though, either, so it's irrelevant to me.

Site Maintenance Tonight
Just curious. What will be the new host of the website? Either way, great news. The site has been very glitchy lately.
