@JTShine86 @TURB0Jesse Paper Mario Christmas Special? Nah, I know better than to hope 😅

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@MrCanadaGuyHere @DarrenDreger Chasing off Helle? Do you know how this works? Trading off our assets at peak value to build a future so they don't suck for a decade.

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@RyderPWS @ChronoKatie Yup, it's definitely the coolest redesign.

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@Canes_4_me @NikLynam What are you trying to do here? Every Jets fan is fully aware of all of those things.

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@AndreSegers I was really looking forward to them coming up with another reason to go to Titania, it's my favorite level. Recovering a piece of technology from the Sector X wreckage (Spyborgs Central ai?) or responding to someone else's distress signal could have worked.

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@ServoSq @DubeckNeil @NHLJets Sooo, like the Leafs?

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@JupiterClimb I've come to accept most of the new voices however all of the new boss voices are AWFUL.

No-trade and no-move clauses are not the industry standard in North American sports. NHL contracts represent the outlier.

Approximate number of no-trades/no-moves:
NFL: 8
NBA: 2
MLB: 35
NHL: 245

@H20SKI2 @ScottBilleck So keep him and continue to suck?

You’re gonna have to operate more like the OKC Thunder under Presti rather than the LA Lakers if you aren’t apart of the exclusive 5-8 franchises in the NHL over the next half decade

Nikolaj Ehlers, on the ice defending the lead with the Stanley Cup on the line, on why he left Winnipeg and signed in Carolina. From a story by @corylav

[“Nik” 🎷🪖 @NikLynam]

I’d resign in shame, and go start a quiet life in the boonies if I treated Nik Ehlers as a red headed step child for a decade and then he did that the following season, as I orchestrated the biggest fall off in NHL history

If I had shame, of course

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@OilyBigDog @MikeBartner So funny when Oilers fans project massive denial trying to act like Winnipeg isn't Edmonton Light.

[“Nik” 🎷🪖 @NikLynam]

The sad point is, they self create the lines in which they then MUST colour within.

They are their own problem, while disillusioning this market that the problem is everyone but them

The Nik Ehlers conversation is so loud and important because undervaluing Nik Ehlers killed the window.

This management group will never replace what they had in the player. And the people that thought it was easy just didn’t understand the sport or why they were led astray, and must stick to their guns.

It’s over folks. The cores too small. The wrong players were prioritized because relationships > results in this country club.

[Mike Bartner @MikeBartner]

The Jets 2030’s might make the Oilers Decade of Darkness look like Child’s Play if they do this.

Yes, though not because I think God is an object inside the universe, a teapot-like posit, or a conclusion that can be proven so that every rational person must believe it.

@aFx_Punky @ZeyonDevilX I've played every single one multiple times except Rainbow and Canvas curse. Dedede is my favorite video game character. Bandana Dee would be a super lame addition to Smash.

During the 2021 playoffs, the Montreal Canadiens swept the Winnipeg Jets.

They went on to lose in the Stanley Cup finals.

In November of 2021, Bergevin was fired just months after such an appearance.

Kent Hughes and Jeff Gorton were hired to change directions. A rebuild commenced

In 2026 they find themselves in the ECF and more playoff series’ won between 2022-2026 than Winnipeg

Montreal has only missed the playoffs in 1 more season than Winnipeg in that span

Something to consider when leaning on the President’s Trophy as this groups true hope for more.

[Riley Lederer @Spriles]

@AgreeingBook13 @1Riggz @DakariusAshby You absolutely did not play enough of it given the type of game that it is.

[abrasive but astute. @chevys_abrasive]

Jets org to have a serious talk about where the NHL is. The jets have limited assets, don't do well in free agency and are on everyone's no trade list. In a year with 10 aggressive buyers this is an issue this year with 25+ it's impossible to retool. Read the room and sell high.
