Confirmed IS lurker and expert trollConfirmed Paul Edmonds is NOT an HFBoardsJets lurker. This morning hey were talking about the 2015 TDL moves the Jets made, and he named Jiri Tlusty and said "who was the other guy, he has been all around the league", Toth or Riwicki immediately jumped in and said "STEMPNIAK"
No way you could read these boards and forget who Stempniak is

He usually has all the info...I was thinking that too, maybe he is putting on an excellent troll job
I rarely listen to 1290 anymore but for Hustler and Ralph on the drive home but it’s sure nice that 1290 doesn’t send a crew to media row at the SuperBowl anymore.
Kevin O is a goof , surprised you could make any of his words out with all the goofy laughing he does .Usually don't hear Kevin O, just heard him on Laine
Claimed people criticized buff for his play and weight until Jets were winning
- Jets started winning after he came into camp noticeably slim, and was taken off top pairing....?
Said we shouldn't compare Laine to older players, what was Schiefele like at 20, etc .
- isn't the criticism starting to compare his rookie season to his current?
I don't know. Weird radio...

People criticized Buff for being overweight his first 2-3 years here because he was FAT! I remember at the end of the 2nd season (I think) when the players took off their jerseys at the end of the last game - "svelte" was not a word that could be used to describe his physique. The criticism wasn't because the team wasn't winning...Usually don't hear Kevin O, just heard him on Laine

I heard that too. I guess he's just making conversation because I think most people would agree that they aren't even close. Marner brings that elite playmaking ability on top of all the other things that Connor can do.Toth's take this morning:
KC will score 35 goals and should get paid similarly to Marner... completely ignoring that Marner is on pace for 31 and on pace for 35 extra points
bu bu but goal scorers get paid more..... yea, but when the point disparity is that large i think it makes up for a few extra goals
I look for info everywhere and learn quite a bit on our boards , not from everyone mind you but alot of people posting on Hf Jets seem very knowledgeable . Well accept the Professor but he was funny .
Marner plays for Toronto , hate him , love Connor .I heard that too. I guess he's just making conversation because I think most people would agree that they aren't even close. Marner brings that elite playmaking ability on top of all the other things that Connor can do.
I don't think your wrong about the idea being softened up at all. I can recall about 3 weeks before Stuart signed that horrible extension media members gabbed and wrote gushingly about him repeatedly. Whether or not that happens is another story but you might be onto something especially if the return to Ottawa involves significant pieces like Ehlers.* adjusts tin foil hat *
I feel like I recall the following responses from Dennis, Brian, and Paul when asked about potential deadline deals in previous years:
"None of us are GMs"
"That's up to Kevin and Paul to decide if they feel...."
"We don't know what's said in the locker room"
"Dance with the one who brought you..."
Then Dennis this morning actually sounds like he's in favor of adding, specifically Stone... Is my memory off, or am I being subtly softened up to the idea?
