I can understand shutting down AM radio - does anyone still listen? But they could have waited until an alternative was in place. I listen(ed) to SN650 via streaming to a number of games each year. I would hope that something similar is available when the season starts. I'm guessing there's still a ...

We've got random posts popping up about the demise of Sportsnet 650.

Seems they're likely done - shut down (coincidentally?) after Rogers completed their buying of the leaves....

Can't figure out why Cornuck is choosing to heavily scrutinize the media rumours during the summer.....I think maybe he's become as jaded as the rest of us towards this team. :P Actually, as down as I was on this team at the end of last season, I have a small spark... an ember that could ignite in ...

That's what you read out of that?

Sorry - I just have very little faith in the media to report actual news, vs random (possibly made up) hearsay.

Agree 100% - just saying that he (likely) didn't have a say in Lankien getting that contract, which forced Silovs out of town.

It's hard to tell this early on, but it's unlikely that Clark had as much say with the old regime as the Sedins and Johnson did. We'll never know if it was Clark who endorsed that ridiculous Lankinen contract, but I'll bet that it wasn't.

Another show me contract. Meh regular season, great playoff numbers.

FWIW Donnie, I enjoy these posts, but can't really add to the discussion.

What's the over/under for Chytill's games played this season?

Edit: AI says it's 49.5 games. I'll take the under.

A lot of Rossi's success will likely depend on how healthy Brock's dog is next season.

I'm thinking that Buium and a couple of the other kids will help spread the news. When Cootes arrives, I'm sure he'll have plenty to say.

IF ExtraPouty40 shows up to camp not ready to embrace this new outlook, it will be another miserable season for him. It's his choice.

Kid has a good attitude and approach. Force management to make a decision with him on instead of managing his own expectations. He may be a diamond in the rough. Nothing that would alter the team’s trajectory, but hopefully a building piece for management down the road. If we can pull an NHL player ...
