"Isn't it a shame that the blades aren't going to be promoted?"

"When ffs is a Canadian team going to win the Stanley Cup?"

"Have the Jays really got the starting pitching to get into the playoffs?"

"I think peiowl really had a point about that ("N" word here) guy. Sorry, I said that Maddix. Dint mean it really. Please forgive.

AND

"Why do all the decent birds on Corrie St go out with total losers -e.g. Sarah and Callum; Tina (RIP) and Peter, etc etc.?"

Maybe..someday.................

Sorry Pei, you won't find me ever wanting the blunts to be promoted!!!

Blackhawks all the way for me!!!  Canadian teams need to stop thinking they have a divine right to win the Stanley Cup and concentrate on actually deserving to be there!!  Still enjoy watching Subban play though!!!

The Jays starting pitchers have a combined ERA well over the 4.00 mark, unfortunately that is going to have to improve dramatically if they want to win anything!!  They rank 28th out of 30 in pitching stats, that will kill them!!

You did have a point about the "N" guy, but it was pretty much the same point as the rest of us had!!  I will be disappointed if we see much of him next season, we have to do better with the ones we have and we need to buy at least one outstanding striker!!

Like Stateside, haven't watch Corrie in 15 years!!

Last time a Canadian team won the SC was '93, 22y back...Montreal Canadiens, of course, so "divine right" seems to have deserted us. But, I have to say that the Habs didn't deserve to win against Tampa Bay. Relied far too much on their ace goaltender Corey Price and didn't have clinical finishing in front of goal. Now, which football team does that remind you of? I'll probably hope Chicago wins now mainly because a buddy of mine who has had a stroke (in his 30s!!) follows them and I like to see him happy.

Don't think the Jays will be in the mix again this yr but it's early days yet.

now, Maddix, I never mentioned the "N" guy's name. I'm trying not to. It's like abortion, religion, or sex --a topic to avoid in polite company. Everyone seems to agree that we need a striker who scores goals next yr. Who will it be? Alf?
