All reports are indiciating theres not enough time to get him a Visa to play in Canada for games 81 and 82. So, hoping he gets to suit up in the playoffs. Maybe if the Canes get up 3-0 on the Devils?

The hipcheck in this highlight reel is just disgusting, as is the way he can move like that at 6'4", 216.

Glad he's signed, but hard to imagine Rod playing him in the playoffs with no regular season ice time.  I'd love to be wrong about that.

They are going to play him in regular season games. At worst he will play a game or two with the Wolves. The plan is for him to play a game or two and then be ready for the playoffs. Make no mistake,he will see ice time in the playoffs. He's big, fast, can score and plays with a mean streak while being defensively sound. Meaning he's a Brindamour type of player.

It moved.

After watching that video, the thought of Nikishin blasting Tom Wilson into oblivion makes me happy.

I showed my new boss- a Rags fan- that video and he asks who it is. When I told him he said "Fug me. You guys are winning it all this year".

      JJ Jansen on tanking

      By WhoKnows · Posted

      Nope, that’s not the disconnect. In 2022, our GM knew he was going QB in the 2023 draft. You are talking about risking fans involvement on a team that’s been basically bottom 3 in the NFL from 2018 to now. There is no risk when you are that bad. We were right to want Fitterer to tank in 2022 and get rid of anyone who could bring us big value and extra cap room for future years when we aren’t winning 2-7 wins a year. We knew we wanted a rookie QB so we didn’t trade assets for picks and get a better draft slot so we ended up only getting a 2nd for Burns and threw in DJ Moore plus an early 2nd instead of a 1st, which basically lost us an early 2nd. The “risk” to our franchise’s losing culture ended up being around 4 1sts of total value. Yep, I refuse to listen to the other perspective that lost us around 4 1sts of value. At least our fan involvement is so high that our stadium isn’t chock full of visiting fans since we’ve won so much since 2022. Again, you won’t change my mind that we should have tanked in 2022 and had another 2-4 Browns/Horns on this team.

      It was the Colts that pulled theirs. Colts did Minecraft video without getting Microsoft’s permission (Chargers did get their permission). The questionable content was having the coast guard stop tyreek hill.
