Hunter McDonald, Oliver Bonk, Emil Andrae, Helge Grans should all be solid second or third pair dmen.

We already have York, Risto, Sanheim, Seeler, Drysdale, Zamula.

Can we trade one or two and get a pick or a forward back

Risto should've been gone last season.

Seems like there was a pretty good chance Risto would've been moved at the deadline but the injury hampered things. Felt like he was a good candidate to go at the draft, but now that his injury will probably carry over into next season and Danny says it's time to turn the corner, maybe he sticks around..

There was talk of York a little bit at the deadline too. And the falling out with Torts, kinda seems like it could be a 'dump both of them' type of situation. Would be kind of a bummer. Even though his offense hasn't come around like it was supposed to, he's been a solid dman. Seems like a bit of a prick though.

A jury of 11 women and three men was chosen Tuesday. These young men are F****d. From reading about the trial, jurors can only be excused for cause. No preemptory challenges (attorneys can dismiss someone for no reason, usually each side has 6) in Canada.

In legal matters and especially politics, it surely ain't about being fair, Maverick. It's about winning and both the Prosecution and the Defense have biased themselves against Hart with that jury profile because the prevailing tone(s) these days is that "men think with their dicks and are stupid and always believe a woman" bullshit.

How many cases since the beginning of that belief have we seen overturned or have been exonerated because the woman eventually tells the truth about how she used a r*pe charge to her general advantage?!

The most recent is the Duke Lacrosse Team whom after nearly 15 years were finally exonerated in the court of public opinion when the woman who claimed gang r*pe finally admitted she lied and fabricated the whole affair.

If you buy the bullshit that men are stupid and think with their dicks, that can be quickly be destroyed by understanding that women think with their vaginas as well. They are just not as overt about it as men but they are as horny as any dude. I know these things because I used to be in Psychology and the confessions I got during sessions were corrobortive of the info I got growing up with three sisters.

This Hart thing never would have happend if Hart would have understood that when you are a high profile, highly paid athlete in a prominent sport the LAST thing you want to do is go to a public establishment or spend any amount of free time just "hanging out" looking especially if alcohol is part of the equation.

That was his first and biggest mistake!! We shall see how this plays out but the jury profile is not a good start with a bunch of biased-assed attorneys controlling things!!

This sounds more re-tread average type dude. It would be in the best interest of progressing this organization forward if Briere and company would go and interview a number of coaches perhaps assistants at the farm system and college levels who are young, innovative thinkers, and have an unsatiatable desire to win. They would probably find their next coach there.

As a Flyer fan i gave up on us doing the smart thing years ago. It really doesn't matter though ,whoever it is will just be holding the place down for the next coach.

They've been trying to fuck these guys for 6 years. Nothing is stopping them. The law slowed them down at first, but it's a kangaroo court in a kangaroo country.

Well, I've been reading up on some of the details of this trial. First off, this all happened in the summer of 2018. It's 2025 and now these men are all millionaires. I guess it's just a coincidence that it's going to trial now.

The alleged victim had 8 drinks and was down to fuck. She also reportedly offered to perform sexual acts and was asking a room full of dudes whether anyone was gonna fuck her....Lol I'm sorry, but what are we talking about here!?!

I agree with you. This chick was likely okay with a bunch of hot, fit dudes fucking her. Also, she never refused anything or resisted physically.

How in God's green Earth can she prove beyond a reasonable doubt that this wasn't all consensual!? Or that she's not a nympho!?

She fucked McLeod consensually at first and then supposedly didn't give consent to the same dude later!? (but also didn't vocalize that)

In 2019, after an investigation of this by London police, they determined that there were insufficient grounds to even lay a charge.

In 2022, the alleged victim was paid $3.55 million by Hockey Canada after a civil suit was filed.

Also, 2 jurors were dismissed, so now it's 9 women and 3 men.

This whole thing just rubs me the wrong way. These men are probably guilty of being in the wrong place at the wrong time, but to ruin their lives over that really seems excessive.

Oh yeah, Maverick. This thing is loaded with slime all the way from Philadelphia to Canada. Lots of admissions and retractions and of course the slime attorneys have show-up and get their cut of this mess.

I seriously doubt the truth will ever be known at this juncture. Maybe 10 years from now.

And yes, like you alluded to earlier, women can be absolute freaks in the bedroom too. I'm sure there are millions of women across the world that would've gladly switched places with her that night, and without a seven figure paycheck in it for them either.

Also, these were likely a bunch of drunk, young adults. Who of them have any credibility based on their memories of what happened, especially her and her 8 drinks!?!

In how many colleges across the country (or world) is a similar scenario taking place right now!? Young folk like to get drunk and party. A lot of times that leads to sex. It is what it is...Lol

You got it, Maverick. Nothing like a slimy sewer to sort through for the scum-sucking attorneys.
