Pre-Game Talk: Jets @ San Jose - Fri Nov 1/19 - 930 pm - TSN3

Oilers and Canucks are 1 & 2 in the West because of their PP ... maybe Maurice should watch some of their videos.

The price was a steal for sure, you won't see anyone buying a team for $170 million again

The team was actually only $110M. There was an additional $60M "relocation fee". Plus the Canadian Dollar was a little over par with the USD at the time. $170M USD today would be about $225M CAD. It was quite a fortuitous series of events (for Winnipeg) that led to the team moving here.

I starting to wonder if they are planning on tanking ... **** hits the fan.

Yes they are purposely injuring themselves and giving players viruses.

 

[JetsUK]

It is treatable, but it can definitely destroy or reduce your heart's capacity to work later on in life. But if it was caught early enough, he should be OK. But you are right, probably career ending.

Just going by my own experience, they think my Dad had a undiagnosed heart virus when he was younger and it contributed to his eventual demise. I am not a cardiologist, though lol

This would be crazy just for a whole season but to all happen in the first month?

It's mind-boggling.

At this point, I'm just hoping they can field a team that's able to finish the games in San Jose and Vegas without forfeit. Anything beyond that is gravy, IMO.

Chevy dressed up as a mad scientist today, syringe in hand injecting players with viruses. Something like that?

 

[Howard Chuck]

He was sitting at the bench for a while when they practiced the PP...

Were you at practice?

 

[Howard Chuck]

Holy crap!!!

Bad news for the team, but I sure hope that Letestu is ok for his sake.

 

[Gm0ney]

If tanking is the goal, then you want to insure that Letestu is healthy...

And thank goodness it all worked out!

Sorry Duke......

Letustu out for a while, Colonel Mustard seen leaving the arena

Colonel Mustard, in the dressing room, with a syringe?

Obviously, great minds think alike here

Pure evil genius
Nobody would ever expect that
Muhahahaha

[kanadalainen]

Geez... viral myocarditis is really nasty. Sorry for Letestu, no one should have to suffer that one.

 

[nobody imp0rtant]

This is karma for taking my Thrashers you team stealers!

Blame Glendale City Council. Of course, your team would still be gone, you would just be bitching at Quebecers.

 

[Ducky10]

Mo sure sounds frustrated, rightfully so.

I think they are. They wouldn’t hold Laine off for two games if they weren’t. Don’t think he’s that injured? I think that’s season then.

That injured? If one of your top players is even a bit injured, why would you take the chance of worsening it by playing him before he's fully recovered? Maurice does many things to promote the tank. Sitting out Laine at this time is not one of them.

 

[Ducky10]

Lol, you have no idea what’s wrong with him.

 

[KingBogo]

We have no idea how injured he is or what the risk is of further injury. There is not a chance in the world he is held out as part of a so called tank. Especially 1 month into a season where several other teams in the conference are also struggling to find a consistent game.

 

[AlaskaJet]

An easy win for the Jets. The trouble is on Saturday. If Helle starts against SJ you know the Jets have maxed out their points available. Then come back home and slaughter the Devils and all is right in our little world.

One can only hope! Where is that can of shark repellant?

 

[AlaskaJet]

Lol, you have no idea what’s wrong with him.

True, we have no idea, but a recurring low back history is as unpredictable as Maurice’s line decisions....
Oh, on second thought...bad analogy..

 

[Eyeseeing]

If Laine is ready, I hope he does not play with Little. We don’t need Laine to tank Little’s production.

There are funny posts and then there’s this one
