All of your big radio personalities will be making six figure plus.
Hal Anderson old DJ partner from Winnipeg is now in California making huge money living in a mansion.
Jim Toth ain't one of those :)

Wow. I subjected myself to some of the pre-game show while driving my kids to activities tonight.

Kevin O- DeMelo is a Ben Chiarot type guy who had to work his way to the NHL the way Chiarot did with the Ice Caps and Moose.
Yes, Chiarot worked hard to get to the NHL but played exactly 0 games with the Moose.

Edmonds- DeMelo will be getting at 10% raise on his current contract.
Sure Pauly.

Turn off radio.

For 2 supposed sports radio professionals having a basic understanding of player history and player contracts may be a good idea to keep listeners tuned in.

Guys just making stuff up doesn’t make for entertaining radio.

Kudos to those that are entertained by sports radio guys that have not a clue of what they are talking about at times .

Heard that too. Demelo is making 900k ........so maybe 100% increase, or so. Close enough ;)

Munz this morning when asked if he thinks the Jets will add another player

"Well I have heard some things that I won't disclose"

Then dropped hints while acting clever.

Then asked if he thinks Little will return to the ice:

"I've had the opportunity to talk with Bryan a few times and those conversations will stay between us"

Just say you don't know, man.

Did I just hear that correctly?

Toth just stated that Bogosian would have Winnipeg at the top of his list, once waived by the Sabers?

I don't like when Brian "Mr. Personality" Munz is on. He is WAY too exciting to listen to - it takes my heart hours to stop racing.

Toth trying to say he has Jets sources. Retweeted Dreger saying his sources tell him the Jets would love him back, that he's well-liked in the room. Who is even left in the room from Bogosian's time here? Maurice and Wheeler?

There is still a couple left from the 2014 season:

Scheif, Perreault, Lowry, Wheeler, Little

Yeah, he was sounding really smug today for someone who probably knows about as much we do about potential trades or Little possibly retiring.

Toth's Jets sources include Mick E. Moose, Benny and the kid working the Jumbo Jets Dog cart in the basement near the Exchange lounge

Totally useless interview. Totally useless five minutes of air space. Absolutely no insight. Why do they have these guys on the show again?

When I was just out of college, I landed a gig writing articles for local trade magazines. They paid me per word and not per article, which is a great way to encourage a large article with very little information. That is what I'm reminded of whenever I hear Munz, Edmonds, Beyak or Chevy.

In defense of Toth, Munz, while dropping hints, mentioned that there were "familiar names" and "known in Winnipeg" while talking about additions. If Munz counts as a source, Bogosian is an obvious candidate.

It's so annoying to have these "journalist posers" talk like they're insiders, without ever having to back up their claims.

Is Matt Hendricks still playing? Could he get back into shape for a PO run??
