I know I'm later to the tank party than most but the Leafs loss was my last straw. Thought maybe the Christmas break would do them good but they failed even more miserably after that, and then I gave them 2026 proper to turn it around and in that very first game we go up 4-1 and - in the most epic collapse I can even remember watching this team - LOSE! And in regulation, to boot! Message received.

Now hopefully we don't win another game all season and get a first overall so we can rejig and come back next year while we still have the Core Four of 55/37/81/44 locked in.

GV13 is a big part of this team and is locked in for another 5 years.

Just not good enough. Multiple good chances in OT with zero results.

Chevy hasn't gotten the team a decent, drive the play centre, since perhaps Brian Little and he was with Atlanta to begin with.
I'm referring to a lack of 2nd line and not dismissing Scheif

Certainly hope Fleury recovers without any long term difficulties

Seems These three are doing a good job

:The Stampeders' football operations staff for 2026 includes:

• Assistant general manager and director of player personnel Brendan Mahoney
• Director of U.S. scouting Cole Hufnagel
• Director of Canadian scouting and U.S. scout Dwayne Cameron:

I have thought that John Hufnagel seemed to have good contacts in US.

Sean McEwen has been a very good C, is Canadian and a potential free agent. I do like the go with an American at C idea.

Hate the idea of tanking, however, certainly know that we, as fans, would go crazy if we get a wonderful draft position as a result of a horrible display of competing

Spitting this out —- the Ducks put N. Nesterenko on waivers
Chevy could pick this young 4th liner and put an old guy on waivers

I have no issue with slotting Eli in at C.  Depending on what he signed for, that is probably the plan.  He's marinated long enough.

In college, he was considered an NFL draftable C.  He had some life issues, and took time off, but ended up here.

Taking a guy who couldn't beat out the worst starting centre in the league the last 3 years, and promoting him once that centre has been released is not a recipe for success. I hope that's not the plan.

Biggie moves one step closer to starting! He must be considering retirement though, this can't go on forever.

Well that's 5 players that have taken the NFL option so far. The good news is that nothing so far about Vaval. Also haven't heard anything about Wooden.
