Again, Sip uses targeted vitriol, again he is wrong. Maybe re-think next time you want to dole out some negativity.
which makes the Petan thing all that more strange.
Morrissey got the perfect amount of seasoning. in fact, i wouldn't be shocked if he started with the Moose next year, since he'd continue to develop there.
but Petan was weird. kept with the Jets too long, then sent to the Moose and, now with the injuries, Lipon's called up before him.
There's a maturity issue with Petan. I recall he was a healthy scratch with the Moose earlier this season for being late for practice.
Funny, I seem to remember them having Scheif start in the NHL TWICE and being sent down both times. Guess he wasn't being developed either....
if memory serves me correctly, he had a GREAT pre-season in his draft year. so he did deserve the look.
i think year 2 was more of "you're at the age where you can make the team, but show us something to show you deserve to make the team."
he looked overmatched in his time with the team.
so, again, no fault. and what, 4 games? that's nothing.

Doesn't really count if you say it for every prospect.

How exactly do we know this already? It may prove true down the road but as of now it's still very much up in the air.
Again I ask, how do we know this already? I think we're making a lot of assumptions based on what we think we know, the idea that slowly moving up league to league is always best for every prospect, and a little bit of hindsight.
A whole hell of a lot is up in the air still and it'll be a couple more years at the least before we get a very good grasp on these guys.

Its true. Kostalek was scratched for the same game, for the same reason.. Petan was in the doghouse for a little bit after the game he was scratched (next game 4th line minutes for first 2 periods) but it didn't take him long to get back to normal.

"And it's not just basketball that gets run over by curling's popularity. Last weekend's men's final was watched by an average audience of 413,000 on CBC, outdrawing some pretty big players. It put up bigger numbers than Rogers' much-hyped Sunday night hockey game between Calgary and Chicago, Monday Night Football, a Broncos-Chargers NFL game and a whole lot more.
If curling still isn't getting respect, it certainly should."

I like him, but he needs to work on his quickness and fitness before he'll be a fixture. Still, it's obvious that the Jets have substantial depth in young players. We might also have a top forward from the 2016 draft.

The numbers don't mean squat, the age demographic isn't one advertisers covet, the generation watching curling is buying Boost and Ensure and probably certain adult products that babies also use.
I've had to watch curling in the past but that's only because grandma was sitting on the remote!

Bed ridden, sick as an old dog last 2 days...
Took in the game, in and out of delirium...
Did I imagine the Jets won in regulation ?
To top it off the Chef notched a 'trick'...
I should get deathly ill more often... (no piling on now)
Too many Cadbury Eggs again ?

I'm a millennial and I know tons of people that both watch curling and participate in it. I don't watch it personally but do enjoy playing it. Everyone has different tastes dude, stop yelling at clouds
