The Golden Jet, Bobby Hull has passed away at the age of 84. I would think the Jets will honor him at tonight's game.

They will. They tend to ignore his off-ice career.

Wow, that was it for honouring Bobby Hull?? A 30 second bio?? Shame on the Jets. Without him there would be no Jets. The man broke the NHLs back on their then cheapskate salaries. Every player playing today owes the Golden Jet big time. Lest we forget....

Much better game for the Jets tonight. Was surprised how well 36/80/8 played tonight. This line had tons of chances. JM44 put this team on his back tonight. MS55 just keeps on scoring. 54/77 made some mistakes tonight. It will be nice to get DD2 back after the break. PP needs some work.

Such a fine relief in being able to see a terrific comeback
Line juggling certainly resulted in some decent 5 on 5 pressure and great chances

Norrissey led the charge in what was a huge comeback win going into the longest break of the season. Wow, that was it for honouring Bobby Hull?? A 30 second bio?? Shame on the Jets. Without him there would be no Jets. The man broke the NHLs back on their then cheapskate salaries. Every player playing today owes the Golden Jet big time. Lest we forget....
Imagine being so triggered to use a line reserved for war heroes on a bigoted, racist woman-beating drunk because you think, albeit erroneously, TNSE disrespected him. That's gross. Don't be gross. |

The existence of an acknowledgement of even small sorts was probably the best compromise from TNSE's PR dept.
If you were expecting a televised funeral, you'd be a fool. On the other hand, I'm happy to acknowledge his contributions to Wpg hockey and also don't think it would have been a good look to pretend like it didn't happen.
Another point: he was 84. It's not like he died young in a tragic accident or by a terrible disease.
Nonetheless, RIP.

As well, let's not forget..
If you choose to overeat, you are in danger of heart and stroke issues,
If you choose to smoke, you are in danger of getting lung cancer,
If you choose to drink too much alcohol, you likely will become an alcoholic,
If you choose to abuse another person, you will go to prison.
It's often about choices we make that create the issues and reputation we face even though the results are born from diseases.

Lot's of talk on CJOB today. Some feel we need a middle six forward that can score a few goals but still play within Bones system. Apps is returning on Feb.11th. Can he fill that roll.
Lack of bottom 6 scoring was another issue. 17/8/36/89/71/20/28 all have played well. But they all have had excellent chances but don't score enough to help our top 6. 33 goals out of this group in 52 games.
To many passes.
PP: To predictable.
Lines: 81/55/91. 36/80/27. 8/17/26.

It's astonishing how many lack the understanding of how causality works. Whatever mr holier than thou. Let he who hath not sinned cast the first stone.
Your lack of self-awareness is comical. |

Lucius shut down for the rest of the season. Sounds like he's having shoulder surgery.
