Hopefully Brady realizes how old he is soon so tbe division becomes more competitive ....maybe next season the phins can give the pats a run
- Redmile247


It's weird with QB's, they get old in a hurry. Manning went from setting records to looking like he didn't belong in the league within 2 years.

However, as long as Belichik remains HC I'm not so sure Brady is as important a piece as people think. Look at what Garappolo was doing before he got hurt with minimal experience. Hell, Brady wasn't doing that when he started. They won with D and a running game.

Ok guys, I want everyone to take a deep breath, now exhale, try that 10 times and relax.

Why do we have to put up with this for days? Seriously.
If I posted one of these comments over there I'd be banned for a week. These guys know they can come in here and keep stirring and stirring until we react and start getting banned. No one was in here last night and it went on for pages and well into the morning and now, into the evening. It's frustrating as hell.

I asked my son what he wanted to be Hockey player or a Football player or what sport he wanted to play. He said I don't know yet I just want to be a champion.

Good little video on the "Swiss McDavid" on sportsnet hometown hockey.

Nico Hischier leads all CHL rookies in scoring.

2017 draft eligible who plays for Halifax mooseheads who are maybe one of the best teams at producing high end talent

Patrick Laine tied with Crosby for the goal lead.

I agree ...I think it will hit Brady hard pretty soon ...I think him and BB have a good thing going and without Brady they would still be competitive but not quite the juggernaut

Still odd they traded one of their best playmakers on D

- Marwood


I can understand that Marwood, I tried to monitor right after the game but because I was leaving for the airport at 4am my family wanted some going away time. And then it takes all day to fly to Ottawa. Leafman, Dozzer and Yeti were in here and I can see that there were several posters from both fan bases banned.

Also there are several hundred more leaf fans than canucks and they just keep coming. You saw that with 50mission and Bettercallsaul were both banned by Dozzer and 3 more come in. Some listen some don't like SameOld.

I'll try to be more engaged here, but I going to say right now I fly home on the 26th and return to Ottawa on the 4th, so while I'm home my family wants my attention and rightly so.

- Redmile247


It is odd they traded Collins. He was due for an extension so I wonder if they feared he'd become a distraction? No idea, but BB has a history of doing things like that.

It seems that during his entire tenure the only guy he's figured is (nearly) as big as the team is Brady, and that probably has much to do with the way he takes less money so the team can be competitive.

My most hated teams in this order Dallas, Philadelphia and New England. That said you are underestimating Brady.

Dude, it's not your fault for what happens here. It's not like this is your job. Make sure you enjoy the time with your family.

I've heard a few analysts make the comment that BB might have done this to show other players that are up for contract that if they want to stay they need to take less or be traded ...just so odd ...why not bench him if he was not towing the line

Changing the coach won't accomplish a dam thing. No one is going to coach this team back to the playoffs. It's an absolute tire fire mix match of crap. Keep the coach and continue gutting the team. A complete rebuild is the only answer. Once you have that then you can focus on coaching
- Bullfrog77



The coach is bad. The beauty of Torts is he made players glad to leave. That might be a good thing these days

Locker room?

Anyways, they probably want a return for the asset. I also think BB wants the team to see what he does in Cleveland ( or any other city) and show them that he's a product of the system.
