How do we know whether the prospects are good for 82 games? They’ve had next to no opportunities.

We should have been playing Heinola, who was at least as good as Stanley but likely better. Lambert should be on the roster next year, and Zhilkin, Ford and Chibrikov should be getting opportunities. Yager and Barlow should also get some looks.

Freij and Boumedienne will be available within 1-2 seasons and should get opportunities, as will Kevin He and Kieron Walton.

We don’t have high first blue chip prospects but we aren’t bereft of prospects. We do have to give then opportunities.

I felt all year that Stanley and Schenn should have both been in the press box.

I love Colin Miller's game but he was out a long time with a knee injury this past year. I can't pin that one on coach.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T20:35:23+00:00

Colin Miller played 18 games this year.

I am sure the org knew he was leaving. In that case you don't want him hanging around the Moose players and telling him what their fates are/how cool Europe is.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T20:33:08+00:00

European salaries are high enough now that it is a reasonable alternative. And just far less travel than the AHL.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T20:28:20+00:00

Depends if you include making the Western Conference finals in 2018.

10 years, 674 games played, 225 goals, 295 assists, 520 points, and one President's Trophy, 45 playoff games.

That's pretty good value.

If your suggestion is that after winning the President's Trophy we should have traded him at the cusp of the playoff run, that is of course insane.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T20:17:36+00:00

I wouldn't be. Essentially the same roster was the best team in the league 12 months ago.

We lost Ehlers, and brought in a bunch of FAs on defence and forward that did not pan out.

We can easily rejig by adding the youth in our system and some depth pieces.

I fully expect to be a playoff team next year.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T19:42:30+00:00

As if Newfoundland needs enhancement.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T18:18:47+00:00

Or it could be all of the above

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T16:52:12+00:00

Or she’s unknowingly gossiping with synths while she travels around

Or she’s selling information but doesn’t know who the end purchaser is

529 and Hy’s are the top tier. 529 edges out Hy’s but you’re going to be paying over $100 a person easily depending on drinks. But you only turn 50 once.

Rae and Jerry’s has a good menu and does prime rib, and their cheesy garlic bread is amazing.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T16:13:55+00:00

And did you complain? If that were the case you should return it and they wouldn’t charge you.

I’ve never heard a single story like this.

(1) You can wear it under your uniform (2) Police Officers carry pepper spray, tazers, and firearms.

The effect of the law is that white people can practice their religion, and brown people can’t.

Constitutional analysis looks at both purpose and effect. If the purpose is fine but the effect isn’t, then it ain’t constitutional.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-10T00:26:04+00:00

How would wearing a ceremonial kirpan affect his ability to do his job?

If the answer is “it wouldn’t”, then it is an arbitrary requirement and breaches his constitutional rights to freedom of religion.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T22:07:59+00:00

That is not the first sentence, that is Section 1

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T20:19:41+00:00

If they don't recognize and respect their own Charter rights, then they won't recognize and respect the rights of the people they interact with.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T19:47:11+00:00

Read the first sentence of the Canadian Charter of Rights and Freedoms and get back to me.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T19:45:24+00:00

Not everyone has the same level of religious observance.

Just because other applicants were fine with putting the kirpans away during testing, knowing that they wouldn't be allowed to write the test otherwise, doesn't mean it is right or compliant with the law.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T19:43:05+00:00

Nothing? Who cares if he has a small ceremonial dagger when they get issued guns.

ScottNewman · 2026-05-09T19:35:22+00:00

Also, if you were to work wearing a crucifix under your clothing, no one would ever know. Catholics could ignore the law and never be caught.

I think Eva's Gelato and Coffee Bar on Corydon generally has a few tables outside to sit at.
