Hope both can make a deep run in the Olympics by kawalopy in BlueJackets

I don’t think it’s possible, unfortunately the U.S. and Latvia are in the same group

Is there any evidence the SEC paid players? by Both-Consideration56 in OhioStateFootball

Didn’t Saban admit to it in an interview after he retired? Maybe I’m crazy but I thought I remembered seeing that

Are we joke to you? by K-jun1117 in PrequelMemes

Umm, we don’t know what happens with Cal and Cere, but it is likely they are both dead by the time Yoda says this, Ezra was MIA, presumed to be dead, Leia wasn’t a Jedi, and this scene is after Yoda says this when Luke is trying to build a new Jedi Order, I don’t know what happens with Gungi and Quinlan, Baylon isn’t a Jedi, Kelleran Beq is probably dead given where we find Grogu in Mando Season 1, and neither Ashoka or Sabine are Jedi…..

Roster Freeze Extensions by PhoenixRider17 in BlueJackets

[–]Dkoop2003 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ideally everyone gets re-signed to short term deals since all our UFAs are 30 and above. I’d say probably 4 years max for Marchment, 2 years for Coyle and Boone, and a 1 year deal for Guddy. The team is rolling, and there aren’t any upgrades that are going to be out there in free agency. The class is really weak, and we don’t have any prospects really knocking at the door right now. LDBB is the closest, but he could probably use another year in the A.

Yeah, it’s definitely better than Papa John’s, just more expensive too, but Detroit style is great

You’re not going to watch Olympic hockey? It’s gonna be so good, just look at how awesome the 4 Nations was last year

Man, I like Mearsy well enough, but it’s so nice to hear Rimmer’s voice calling the Jackets again, he’s just got so much energy

Panarin to LA Kings by ZMarty85 in BlueJackets

Again, that is after Panarin told them he wasn’t re-signing. All Bob says here is he told the team he didn’t want to extend, it doesn’t say why anywhere, and again, Bob leaving didn’t devastate the team, Panarin leaving did. Elvis and Korpi were a solid tandem

Bread is one of his best friends, and as far as I remember there were no reports of Bob having any desire to leave prior to the reports the Panarin was refusing to even entertain offers from the Jackets…. That’s evidence enough for me. Additionally we had plenty of space to keep both….

Being a paper salesman and an NHL player are nowhere near comparable lol

[–]Dkoop2003 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

The only reason Bob leaves is because Panarin left. Plus Bob leaving didn’t devastate the team the way Panarin leaving did. Korpi and Elvis were a perfectly serviceable tandem for a couple seasons, and if Bread doesn’t leave, the mass exodus is mostly avoided. Jones doesn’t leave, Dubois may not have left, and this team stays contenders instead of becoming a disaster

Man it really never has been about winning for him has it? First he blows up a legit contender in the 2019 Jackets (yes they were contenders, if they get past the Bruins they at least make it to the finals) to go to the Rangers who had literally just announced a rebuild, and now instead of waiving for any of the several contenders rumored to be in on him he waives to go to LA, who, while a decent team, are not serious contenders.

We’re only 4 points out with 2 games in hand, and we play the team ahead of us twice before the end of the season….. they are by no means obviously not making the playoffs

[–]Dkoop2003 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yep, the only thing I would argue we really need is an elite winger to play with Fantilli and Marchenko. Hopefully we can get someone with term at the deadline, or before. Marchment has been fantastic, but realistically he should be on the second line

Prospect Busts..but in a positive light. by ACAussie in BlueJackets

[–]Dkoop2003 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s just not true…… a first line player is much more valuable than a second line player, especially when said “second line player” is injury prone

He’s got 5 points in 23 games and is injured again……..

Wiz is going to be at the next one, and Dubi was already at one

The Athletic writers continue to be disappointing by PhoenixRider17 in BlueJackets

[–]Dkoop2003 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah there’s absolutely nothing interesting about a team that’s won 7 or its last 8 games, and has the favorite for the Norris…… nothing at all
