I like Tom Wilson. One of the top power forwards in the NHL. Having himself an excellent year with a point a game. His size, speed, and physical play is something this team needs.

QuoteFor me it's Stone, Doughty. Hagel and Marchand I am on the fence.  55 should be on this team.
Ya, definitely some  questionable picks, you can add Wilson to the list, how he makes it and you leave Sam Bennett off is beyond me. I m sure there's a rhyme and a reason for their selections that escape the common fan and I know cooper has his own philosophies and reasons so so be it, the pressure is on him to win

There probably is a blitz rate percentage somewhere although I wouldn't know. Maybe Stat Junkie would.

Pressure rate is better. After all, poorly executed blitzes are just as ineffective. I don't really care how we get pressure (ideally through a good front four like most of the dominate defenses throughout football history) but failing that, and we failed really spectacularly at it last year, it has to come from somewhere or you really don't have a chance.

There's been some hilarious ineptitude in "the league"

Running up the to playoffs.

My favourite.... Steelers can't beat the three win Browns to clinch their playoff spot.

Is there a database or source for blitzing stats for the CFL?

Or does anyone know how often the Bombers D blitzed?

Seems relevant in a discussion about their d line strategy.

(NFL probably has stats on what kind of socks, and underwear players wear)

The Lions lawyers looked at the contract, found the marketing money had no limits on it, and used it to bring in a big time player that they wouldn't have been able to afford otherwise. 

That's good lawyering right there.
