Posted on 11/25/2010 12:38:08 PM PST by Justaham
Comedienne Sandra Bernhard called Bristol Palin a hooker on Wednesday's "The Joy Behar Show."
JOY BEHAR, HOST: After weeks of speculation that the low-scoring Bristol Palin could actually take the "Dancing With The Stars`" win, the nation breathed the sigh of relief last night as Jennifer Grey was crowned the champion (ph). With me now to talk about this and other stories in the news are Sandra Bernhard, comedian and singer, Rebecca Dana, senior correspondent for the Daily Beast, and Andrea Marcovicci, singer and actress. I called you Andrea. Is it Andrea or Andrea?
ANDREA MARCOVICCI, SINGER: It`s Andrea.
BEHAR: Andrea?
MARCOVICCI: Yes. You did great.
BEHAR: So, Sandra, were you ready to shoot the TV last night?
SANDRA BERNHARD, COMEDIAN: I twittered for the entire two hours. My eyeballs were falling out of my head. I said, first of all, I said, Cander and Ebb would not allow this.
BERNHARD: You cannot be part of the Palin legacy and dance to Cander and Ebb in a cage.
BEHAR: Yes.
BERNHARD: I mean, Bob Fosse, he turned over in his grave.
BEHAR: I know. What about Fred Astair and Ginger Rogers? They`re dead, you know. They died last night.
BERNHARD: Yes. They died and came back and died for the third time.
BEHAR: What`s her name, Bristol on today`s "View" said something like --
BERNHARD: How did she do it? How did she get to New York to do the "View"?
BEHAR: I don`t know.
REBECCA DANA, SENIOR CORRESPONDENT, THE DAILY BEAST: They have their own plane, these people.
BERNHARD: She`s such a hooker. She got on a flight after losing last night.
(Excerpt) Read more at newsbusters.org ...
Birds of a feather. Geez, they deserve each other.
That is one nasty woman!
She sure has a big nose. Must be a genetic deformity
Consider the source,the Mayor of Skankville has zero credibility.
She has the thousand c**k stare.
She looks like Quinton Tarantino in drag.
Ugly to the core.
And then they bestow upon themselves the moral authority to talk about Willow's teenage rant tweets?
I can't imagine anybody, anywhere, giving a ripe turkey crap what this used up skank has to say about anything.
Wow. Biggest news of Thanksgiving week! Four experts gather to discuss how Bristol Palin lost Dancing with the Stars! And the ENTIRE NATION BREATHES A SIGH OF RELIEF!
Maybe because they already know how to deal with Chlamydia?? Just askin.
The poster girl for liberal femininity ...
Your attempt at flattery will most assuredly get you nowhere with her. Give it up dude, Madonna would be an easier mark.
Shouldn't there be a rule you have to be funny every decade or so to be a comedian rather than just being a liberal who calls Repubs dumb?
I'm not convinced that this ugly thing is really a female.
Obviously, the highlight of Behar's and Bernhard's lives.
I'm sure Bristol is devastated hearing this rebuke from a carpet munching skank!
I'm still waiting for the DNA results. So the media are always calling Conservatives hate mongerers, the only ones preaching hate that I see are liberals..and they never have to aplogize for a damn thing because they have the media in their back pocket. Not a shock this "Woman" worked with Roseanne on the Roseanne show..two idiots who have ZERO talent
Can you imagine the celeb biz jets lined up on the NYC and LA tarmac waiting to take them to their new homes in, oh, France - the day after President Sarah Palin is sworn into office?
I'm offering right now to help 'em pack!
This hag Berhand, we'll just strap into the cargo bay along with the other inanimate objects.
I find your use of the word "woman" questionable.
Sandra Bernhard??? That's her? What does she do for a living, Prizefighter? She has the bitter appearance of an unsatisfied woman. Maybe she can crack a joke or two, but can she field dress a deer or clean a fish? Nahh , no way I know her type, seen them often enough when I lived in Bklyn USA. Big Mouth and no real attractive substance, a fake phony elitist. Not deserving of a look, the type if you do look you want to take an icepick to your eyes and a cork screw to your ears.
It's such a hooker.
Definitly not XX.
Probably not even XY.
Mostly likely XYY.
Abortion would really be tempting if you knew it was Sandra Bernhard.
Bernhard can only get booked on Behar or Howard Sterns show. Interesting, they are all Obama supporters, and Liberal Jew's They are all self hating, visit psychologist often are foul mouth and have sex hang ups they talk of often.
Good grief, Behar and Bernhard together, sharing the same tv-screen? What a putrid pair. Two of the nastiest, most vile cretins out there. We're really getting into a sort of sub-human category with those two. You can almost smell the stench of their rotted souls from the screen.
What an ugly gross lesbo
Yours is one confusing post. Did you mix up some names?
My God what a Dirty Ugly Woman ,does she wipe that filthy diarrhea flowing mouth with toilet paper and use Lysol for a body spray?
One of the ugliest women alive, both inside and out.
Sandy is just jealous because Bristol made more from DWTS than ole Bernard's made in the past five years combined. I was more shocked the author of the article called Sandra a comedienne.
Mental midgets.
Colossal ***holes
If you were that ugly you'd be angry too.
I think I caught something just looking at that.
Hard to believe Sandra Bernhard makes Joyless Behar look good.. comparatively..
It's past time to start sueing these hags for defamation of character and slander.
Enough is enough already...
"I called you Andrea. Is it Andrea or Andrea?
ANDREA MARCOVICCI, SINGER: It`s Andrea.
BEHAR: Andrea?"
WTF? Or was one of the "Andreas" pronounced "Awn-drey-a?"
Well, at least she's never succumbed to cosmetic surgery.
Damn she's just plain fugly!! Actually hard to look at! She makes Helen Thomas look like a Greek Goddess!
Sandra, where are you finding hookers that look like that? Because I want to go there.
An anus has a job to do, and so does Sarah.
Dude, do you mean Palin?????
Or are you trying to say Sandra?

Chilli Parotta
Nowadays however Chilli Parotta is a common feature in most restaurants in India (atleast TamilNadu) and there is no trouble finding vegetarian versions of both chilli & kothu parottas. My dad's friend owns a small restaurant so I was allowed to watch the chef make this since my dad mentioned how much i like this to the owner... They first deep fried the parotta pieces (now that was a shock because parottas are fattening as is and are made with Lots of oil & maida and then to deep fry them as well was atrocious i thought)... and then he told me how they typically make the gravy and keep & toss it all together when an order comes through. So, the recipe here is my attempt at replicating it at home, but with a few modifications of which first & foremost was to skip the deep frying part... :) Still, this is definitely not a diet friendly or health conscious recipe but definitely falls in the 'once in a while indulgence, in moderation' category.
Parottas- 5 to 6 (I use the frozen ones)
Red Onion - 1 big
Green Bell Pepper - 1 small to medium, cut into 1 inch cubes
Tomato - 1 medium, chopped
Tomato paste - about 1 tbsp
Poppy seeds (khasa khasa) - 1 tsp
Cashews - 3 or 4 (optional)
Ginger - half inch piece
Garlic - 2 to 3 cloves
Spring Onions - 2, chopped, green & white parts separated
Chilli powder - 1 tsp
Coriander powder - 1 tsp
Curry masala powder/Garam Masala - half tsp to 1 tsp
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tsp
Salt - to taste
Oil - 1 to 2 tbsp
1) Peel & halve the red onion. Chop one half and set aside. Cut the remaining half into 1 inch cubes (similar to the capsicum).
2) I used frozen paratha so i popped them in the microwave for 30 seconds before frying them on a tawa till they get crisp (instead of deep-frying). Cut the parotta pieces into 1.5 to 2 inch squares - i used a pair of kitchen scissors.
2) Meanwhile, heat 1 to 2 tsp of oil and saute the chopped onion, garlic and ginger cloves till brown, then add the chopped tomato with the masala powders and salt. Also add the poppy seeds & cashews at this point and let it cook till it gets thick. Allow this mixture to cool a bit and grind in a mixie to a paste.
3) Heat the remaining oil in the pan, and add the cubed onions & the white of the spring onions and saute for a few minutes till translucent before adding the cubed capsicum and a pinch of salt. When they get tender crisp, add the ground onion-tomato paste and saute for about 4 to 5 minutes atleast.
4) Add a tbsp or two of water (to loosen up the mixture so the parottas can soak it up) and immediately add the parotta pieces and toss so they are uniformly covered by the paste. Cook this on a medium-high flame till dry.
5) Switch off the stove and stir in the green tops of the spring onions - reserve about a tbsp for garnish later. Delicious Chilli Parotta is now ready.

Hi all,ReplyDelete
Have a nice day.
spices of madurai
Hi Laavanya,ReplyDelete
i studied my masters at madurai and my first ever chilli parotta was at Guru Prasad Madurai. I love love love their chilli parotta. I also loved the one that they used to serve at Anna Meenakshi at college house. I miss those days!!! Bookmarked to try. I knew that there was a gravy it was being cooked in...Never cd try it as my waistline wd never allow it!!! :)
I am from Madurai so will keep the Anna Meenakshi chilli parotta in mind for my next trip there. As much as I love this, I don't make it for the exact same reason - it is fattening.. but once in a while in moderation is okay (easier said than done) :DDelete
Wow its looking so delicious..!! Cant wait to have it, mouth is watering now!! Thanks for sharing this recipe ill try it. Even i'll like to share a link its awesome & Helpful - India food network cooking channelReplyDelete
I made this for a party of 80, prepared the gravy a day before, cooked the parottas and cut them that day and I mixed both in the serving foil trays with burner beneath them.By the time everyone started dinner both the gravy and parotta mixed well and got gr8 compliments from my guests.ReplyDeleteReplies
Thank you Thenmozhi... loved your idea of preparing this for a large group - so glad it was a hit.Delete
Thanks for sharing this recipe. I look forward to trying it out...

I love your book, and have really gained a lot from your tips and advice. My husband and I are constantly reminding one another to be playful when things are stressful and it always works. But what about at bedtime? We struggle many evenings with an overtired toddler who just won't nap and then it is a major struggle to get her to bed. How or should we use playful parenting at these times. I worry it would just rile her up more and make bedtime even more stressful. But I am very concerned that we are creating a really negative attitude around bedtime with our constant struggles. We are working on stopping the overtired cycle but she refuses to nap and has a 5mo. old brother. It seems like 5pm is when she should be going to bed but then she thinks it's a nap and is up at 8 or 9 ready for a full day of play.

Nap/bedtime dilemma
The no-nap, frustrating bedtime scenario you describe is a common one. I can see why you don't want to rile up your 2 and 1/2 year old with playful time before bed, but a light -hearted attitiude doesn't necessarily have to involve high-energy play. I like the author's example of two dolls talking about his daughter getting dressed for school in the book. This could be really helpful to you in getting your daughter to bed at night- using two dolls to role play the bedtime dilemma. Also, it might be really helpful , if at all possible, for you to continue to create an hour of quiet time for your toddler, even if you have to nurse the baby in the toddler's room( or wherever she sleeps) or read a book side by side. I abandoned this practice far too early with my youngest, but I went back to it recently and he seems to welcome the quiet time at almost 5 yrs old.
Playtime at bedtime?
Hi, I sympathize with the worry about revving things up at bedtime. There are two solutions to this. One is to take the risk and get into play mode at bedtime anyway, even though it might indeed mean that your child delays bedtime even more--but it will pay off in the long run. The idea of taking the power struggle away from you vs your child by making the struggle a pretend/symbolic one between two stuffed animals is my favorite game for this kind of situation. You use two silly voices, and have one animal say,"She can't go to bed, look she isn't even tired!"and the other animal says, "Oh yes she is, look at her droopy eyes!" the first one looks deeply into her eyes, and the game goes from there. this breaks the knot of tension that has built up around bedtime (I think many parents do not understand that all sleep is felt by the child as a separation, even if they are sleeping in your arms or beside you!). the more giggles the better, then she'll snuggle up and go to sleep. at least that's the idea! the other solution is to make up games about sleeptime but play them during playtime, earlier in the day. you can say, "i've noticed that we always have a big fight when it's bedtime (you say this with a big smile). Let's fight now instead!" And have a pillow fight or a silly argument about whether the sky is blue or green. You can also try this: at the time that "should" be naptime, pick up a doll and say to your daughter, "This baby won't take a nap! i don't know what to do! Can you help me?" Have a light and fun tone of voice, which then will give you "permission" to say some of your frustrations out loud. of course, keep an eye out that your child doesn't feel made fun of. but most like this kind of game.

Going Back to Winnipeg: Part Deux
November 18 2012 12:32PM
This is part two of a two-part article looking at the Winnipeg Jets in the Revisited Series. Part one can be found here.
In the previous article I had discussed the process by which True North Sports & Entertainment had acquired, and then relocated, the Jets. I detailed the scouting staff that had been retained, as well as reviewing their record at the draft and the consequences thereof. I reviewed Kevin Cheveldayoff and Claude Noel's records that warranted their positions within the organization, and we watched a video on why Gretzky is the Anti-Christ to Manitobans and how Samuel L. Jackson missed his calling as a junior hockey coach.
In this part I will look at Evander Kane, the Jets roster and recent additions, some season prognostications and my general summation of the state, and future, of the franchise.
On Evander Kane
Kane is a dynamic winger who has the potential to impact any game in which he takes part. That being said, I don't believe that he is necessarily a player who can carry a team. A good comparison might be Taylor Hall, though the sample size for both players is still relatively small. Hall plays a similar style, the same position, and there are further similarities in their game statistics thus far (Offensive zone starts and finishes, PDO, on-ice save %, penalties drawn/taken. The one area wherein Hall thus far appears to dominate over Kane is in the Corsi Rel category: Kane has shown a gradual improvement these last three years from -2.4 in his rookie year to 0.7 and up to 8.7 this past season. Hall's numbers during these past two seasons were 10.3 and 15.2. No doubt Kane suffered as a result of playing on a bad team in Atlanta, but the Oilers have been worse than the Thrashers during that time, so we can set aside quality of linemates. As well, while Hall was sheltered during his rookie season, he went against the toughest competition the NHL had to offer last season, and his numbers improved. As a side note, neither player has managed to complete a full 82-game season.
I point this out because Hall is the prototype of a winger who appears to be able to carry a team. Granted, he was a 1st overall selection while Kane was a 4th overall pick. However, Kane, to this point, has not demonstrated the same ability to be the catalytic game-changing player at his position that Hall is. He is still potentially an elite-level left-winger and a core player around which the Jets will need to build. However, it must be taken into account that he cannot be the centerpiece of the roster as they add more pieces. I do not mean to say that Kane is a disappointment, but rather to suggest that he can not be expected to become a cornerstone around which the remainder of the roster is to be built.
They will either need to assemble a deep pool of equally talented players who together can complement and coordinate their strengths, or they will need to acquire (and here I mean draft) an elite-level center who can be paired with Kane and be that principal offensive figure around which the team can muster. Further on I will discuss the potential for the Jets season ahead and where they might finish, but in short, based on the depth and quality at center expected at this June's draft, there may be a fortunate circumstance that allows them to acquire that needed player this spring, should the team perform to expectations.
Flying in Formation
The Jets lineup for this coming season (fingers crossed) will still be short of the elite-level talent that they so desperately need. However, where they have improved is in addressing depth scoring by adding Olli Jokinen and Alexei Ponikarovsky, and while they may not have enough defensive assets to shut down every opponent and account for injury, they ought to have enough options by rolling four lines to at least offer a threat to opposing teams.
Down the middle the Jets have some effective depth. Goaltending will depend heavily on Ondrej Pavelec living up to expectations, although Al Montoya ought to at least provide some breathing room in the schedule. The wing is the weakness for the Jets – after Evander Kane on the left-wing the talent drops off to the level of Andrew Ladd and Alexei Ponikarovsky, strong depth players but limited offensive contributors. While the right-wing is exceptionally weak with Blake Wheeler, Chris Thornburn and Spencer Machacek.
Whatever Claude Noel can extract from this roster, and with a horrific travel schedule to consider, it will need to be a winning-by-committee strategy. More than perhaps any team in the league, any success the Jets have this season will come as a result of collective effort. Kane is exceptional, but he alone isn't the game-breaker that will single-handedly turn around this team's fortunes. The Jets will need to add one or two more players who can help to carry some of the offensive load, or at the very least contribute to keeping the puck out of their own zone, before they can expect to climb their division (more on that later) and be considered a potential playoff team.
The basic pieces are there with Andrew Ladd, Tobias Enstrom, Evander Kane, Alex Burmistrov, Ondrej Pavelec and Zach Bogosian. Mark Scheifele ought to mesh relatively well with this group when ready, while in the meantime Olli Jokinen can contribute some offense and puck possession to the roster, provided Noel knows enough not to use him as a shutdown option.
The Jets have a great deal of flexibility on their roster over the next few years. They have only five players signed past 2015 in Kane, Ladd, Enstrom, Dustin Byfuglien, and Pavelec. Seven players are set to go to unrestricted free-agency at the conclusion of this season, while another seven are entering restricted free-agency.
It would appear as though Cheveldayoff knows that the product on the ice today is not an end-result and has left himself a number of options for the future.
What 2013 Holds for the Jets
For the 2013 draft the Jets have an extra 2nd and 3rd round pick following the trade of Johnny Oduya to Chicago (as a side note, the Canadiens currently have three 2nd round picks in what is considered to be a deep draft year. Keep an eye on this as they have numerous assets they could move in a trade either during the season or on draft day). This, in addition to owning every one of their usual selections gives them nine selections overall, with five in the first three rounds. The organization, and specifically the scouting department, will need to take a significant step forward at that time in order to gain some traction. The current roster simply isn't good enough and there is likely only one way that it can improve over the course of the next few years.
The Hockey News has predicted that the Jets would finish 14th in the East, based on a full-season schedule. Obviously "82 games" is not going to happen, but the skepticism remains and unless the Jets can channel an incredible amount of cohesion in their locker room, as well having some of their best performers carry over from career years last season, then I suspect the THN prediction is sufficiently accurate to ballpark a disappointing season for the organization.
It is important to remember that the Jets play in the Southeast division and, assuming that there are no significant revisions in alignment during these current CBA negotiations, they need to be compared to their "local" rivals.
The Capitals appear to be in decline but must still be given a fair degree of respect. The Lightning are gradually improving around an already considerable core group and have addressed at least one area of concern this off-season by acquiring Anders Lindback, while the Panthers have shown a recent, though arguably temporary, resurgence. The Carolina Hurricanes had one of the loudest off-seasons at the draft by acquiring Jordan Staal and must be considered an improved squad when evaluating outcomes in that division.
Of the five teams in the Southeast division, Winnipeg is in the weakest position. Last season the top and bottom of the Southeast was decided by 12 points, or 6 wins. Looking at the changes that have been made this off-season, and presuming an abbreviated season takes place, oI would be surprised if the standings remain that close for a second year or if the Jets will be able to overtake the group/keep pace.
As mentioned, they have added Olli Jokinen, Alex Ponikarovsky, and retained Kyle Wellwood to the roster, but still have significant gaps in elite-level contributors. To paraphrase the song: I see a lot of feathers, but not much chicken.
The question then becomes, what might they do in response to this situation? Will the Jets sell off future assets and try to sign free-agents to expensive contracts in an attempt to create a stronger team with which to keep pace amongst their rivals? Or might they exploit their situation by using this time to acquire draft picks and stock their prospect pool while waiting for the inevitable downswing amongst their divisional rivals? Does Cheveldayoff believe that anything can be gained by risking long-term financial commitments on the open market, or that exchanging futures at the draft for established talent will return enough talent as to be of a net benefit for the franchise?
Flight Plan
Cheveldayoff looks to be a patient and deliberate manager. From what can be gleaned of his past record, I expect that he intends to bide his time, moving the team gradually towards a more successful roster. One could argue that the Jets have a great deal of potential in the organization on account of unrealized and likely outcomes, that is to say that they appear to be primed to draft relatively high over the next few years and could leverage their assets for a maximum return. Others could just as plausibly argue that the Jets have potential simply because they haven't much further down to go, and therefore there is a lot of "up" ahead of them.
True North Sports and Entertainment spent a great deal of time patiently putting into place their bid to purchase and relocate the Thrashers. That kind of attention to detail and patience is not likely to go out the window now that they have their team.
The Jets are likely always going to be hamstrung by their financial disadvantages, a small arena that caps gate revenue and limited opportunities for local corporate partnerships. By ironic contrast, relative to the supposed rich teams in the U.S., they are owned by one of the richest men in North America (David Thomson is currently ranked 17th in the world by Forbes). This juxtaposition will present immediate challenges to the organization, but likely ensures that, for so long as Thomson owns the team, and remains solvent, the Jets ought to be a stable organization.
Summation and What Does This Have To Do with the Oilers or Flames?
Of all the teams in the league, perhaps the Jets are both the quietest (fans notwithstanding) and most interesting. A lifetime ago the Jets of the WHA changed how the game was being played. They made hockey dramatic, interesting, exciting, and entertaining. They were the ones who re-introduced firewagon hockey as the winds of change blew in from that upstart WHA franchise on the prairies. It was to their great detriment that it was adopted and fully exploited by Glen Sather when he was building the Edmonton Oilers in the late 70s and early 80s. I wouldn't put it past history to teach us another lesson by way of an innovative group of hockey minds on the shores of Lake Winnipeg. They've a long way to go, and I can't say that I'm entirely on board with every decision I've seen thus far, but they are a group worth keeping an eye on.
If we were to track NHL teams along a sort of perpetual bell curve, where the rise and fall of each season were put into relation to previous seasons and the likely outcomes of those ahead, the Jets would probably be just rising above their nadir. They have several items in their favour in a strong coaching staff and what appears to be sound management. Their limited talent and lacklustre draft record inherited from the previous regime are strikes against them, but the future does appear to at least be one with possibilities. In terms of the Canadian teams, they are most certainly below the current fortunes of the Vancouver Canucks and Ottawa Senators. And the Montreal Canadiens and Edmonton Oilers arguably have a headstart on collecting a talented core. Meanwhile the Calgary Flames are in a process of gradual decline such that I might argue the five-year forecast for the Jets is more promising than for the Flames. The Leafs defy statistical logic or evaluation. For Oilers fans, attention would best be paid to this potential future divisional rival. The Jets were once a strong contender for the Oilers rivalry and may be so again. For the Flames, if the league passes realignment such that the Jets play in a division with the Flames and Oilers, it may put even more pressure on their playoff hopes. The Jets are a worse team today than the Flames, but with proper management, that can potentially be turned around to mean a brighter future ahead. The Jets' ownership and management have earned their franchise by planning ahead and laying the groundwork today for what they hope to reap tomorrow. The same cannot be said for the Flames.
The Thrashers had a number of high-end talents come their way through the draft. Management dropped the ball when it let much of that talent leave without getting decent compensation or by maximizing the contributions those players gave. Scouting also faltered as the easy picks were made at 1st or 2nd overall, but then the proverbial high-ground of drafting first in the later rounds was lost as pick after pick failed to develop into an NHL player. The Jets, thus far, have had a sort of opposite experience, where management, to date, appears to be much more competent, though scouting has yet to show signs of improvement. However, the roster lacks much of the high-end talent the Thrashers let rot on the vine.
The Jets today are a relocated team that struggles to overcome the lingering hangover of a very rocky expansion experience. They are, to some extent, a hybrid of both situations, despite the franchise now entering its 14th year. They have the captive audience enthralled with the novelty of having an NHL team, and the leeway this affords them. Yet, they have a roster that, for all the many tremendous opportunities afforded it over the years, has utterly failed to make any headway, and which today bears the hallmarks of an expansion-era team - one which struggles to win games against deeper, more talented teams.
The Jets' scouting department, both amateur and professional, will need to improve if the team is to have any greater chance of success than their previous incarnation in Atlanta, low though that bar may be.
Based on everything I have been able to determine thus far, the Jets would appear to be a team that is intent to bide their time. The plan would seem to be to gradually gather the necessary pieces of a team to make the Jets a playoff contender. I think there is likely still some hesitance amongst the management group to pursue any deliberate decline in the standings in order to draft the franchise players usually available within the first few picks. This reticence may be an extension of their risk-averse nature, or on account of testing the level of patience and long-term support they can expect from the fan base. In either case, I don't believe that TNSE is playing the immediate hand, but rather is focused on the long game, with the goal of bringing a Stanley Cup to the corner of Portage and Main.

Rex, similar to your summation of the Dallas Stars, i disagree with the bearishness of your prediction for Los Jets.
Winnipeg was a strong possession team last year with sub-par goaltending. The line of Ladd, Little, and Wheeler boasted positive Corsi while matching up against the other team's toughs. You mention that there's a big drop-off between Kane and Ladd but only offensively. Based on the roles they play it could be well argued that Ladd is a more important contributor to the team. He's a 2nd line winger on a championship-calibre team.
The Jets have a strong top-4 defense corps, and a good mix of skill deep into the lineup. To your point, they lack a dynamic top-line C or offensive franchise talent, but compared to say the Ducks who have a few of these pieces, Chrveldayoff has built very good depth that should make the team competitive.
The Jets can sneak into the playoffs if Pavalec plays like a top-15 goalie, if they stay healthy, especially among their top-4defensemen, and if the division doesn't improve to the extent you predict it will. Carolina will certainly be tougher, as likely will Tampa, bit I'm not sold on the Panthers and their awful goal differential staying ahead of Winnipeg.
The Jets IMO are better than Montreal, Toronto, Florida, the Islanders, and possibly New Jersey, Tampa, and Buffalo if the season started right away.

It'll be interesting to see the Jets play the Oilers more once a proper realinement is accepted. I know it probably makes more sense for the Jets to be in the central but I'd gladley "give up" watching the Wild play the Oilers 6 times/yr if it meant seeing another Canadian team more.

I would agree but there is a whole lot of hurt we owe the Wild and we patiently waited for this particular dynamic,I say we turn them from tightends into recieves first--oops forgot this was hockey not football--."We Never Forgive-We Never Forget"
Then we can go renew our aquaintences with the good old Jets.
Nice way to zip up the prospectus RexLibris,it is nice to see organised and "supported"data,it must take a lot of effort to be so thorough,thanks for the time and effort--absolutely worth every second of the read.
Looking forward to more of the same excellent analysis,Oilers next please.Or any of our more immediate rivals,one must know thy enemy.
November 18 2012, 03:58PM
I guess it's more of a half-empty v half-full kind of thing. Chevy made some nice moves this offseason and the core is returning and (will hopefully) be healthier than last year. Also, I'm optimistic the goaltending simply won't be as bad.
I agree, to some extent, with an idea that you've threaded through several of your essays, that team's are either at or near championship calibre, or they're in (or should be in) the throes of a re-build. I was fully on board with Edmonton's tear-it-down strategy, and find it absurd that Calgary hasn't chosen to follow suit.
Winnipeg has a young team. It's a very similar type of team to the Oilers of the early 2000's or just after the lockout - they have tons of character and little star power. In some sense they're in a bad position - too good to find a way out through the bottom, but not good enough to challenge the big horses.
Until things change they'll just have to play the games.

Just wait until Couturier makes the team and they have a skilled two way centerman to go with Kane.
November 18 2012, 06:33PM
Nice job Rex. Two points:
1. The team prospects for this season:
I am somewhere between you and John C but there's a lot of "ifs" for the Jets to contend in 2012-13 (or maybe just 2013?). Pavelec has to play up to the inflated salary they paid him, Kane has to grow up and be a star and not a distraction, Jokinen has to stop the perennial inconsistent "loser-non-playoff trend" of his play, Byfuglien needs to play a little defense and hit more, and the whole team needs to buckle down on defensive positioning and systems play to be a more consistent winner.If all that happened, THEN the Jets could make the playoffs.
2. Long-term Plan by Owners and Management: I suggest that, given during my "day job" I compete with one of Mr. Thomson's company's, that making money and maximizing profits, even in a small arena and city, will stay as a key goal. I expect the plan will be to draft high-ish if they have poor play the next 2 years, and the team will only start spending money on free agents when the fans get near the end of their 3 or 5 year season ticket commitment and/or the season-ticket lineup shortens if the Jets really poop the bed.
November 18 2012, 06:40PM
I anticipate seeing the Jets "thrash" around for a while (see what I did there?), and then... I dunno, I kinda thought I could get some more mileage out of Atlanta Thrashers puns...
November 18 2012, 10:25PM
This article has been removed due to its tendency to encourage fans of teams that are not the Oilers to participate in conversations.
*wipes Koolaid from his shirt*
November 19 2012, 03:25AM
Be forewarned... this will be long.
I have to say I'm more along the lines of John Chambers. I see the Jets as an 7th or 8th seeded. I'll comment now about forwards and do D next post.
Looking at last year: They were an above average Fenwick closed team while having a forwards set up of an elite 2nd, and avg 3rd and 4th (GST), and a line revolving of AHL players. They were poor away and in back-to-backs which makes sense if you have poor depth, as teams can line match easily against you and your top players will tire with too much workload. At home Noel was able to split toughs between his Ladd/Little/Wheeler and GST line, allowing for his 2nd (Kane) and 4th (AHL) line to beat soft minutes.
Areas of problems:
Team depth: I disagree and think the Jets have addressed this pretty solidly.
Goaltending: changing nothing but goaltending sv% to league avg and the Jets would of pushed OTT out of the playoffs (I ran the numbers a while back for a future AIH column I still haven't writen... which is why I dislike that Pavs contract).
Away + back-to-back record: I already mentioned this
PK: Jet's had a bad PK and I think this (and most likely goaltending) still need to be addressed
Next season: After this year they are more of an elite 2nd, avg 2nd, 3rd and 4th... Ladd-Little-Wheeler will continue to beat tough offensive minutes, lining against tough lines. Jokinen will find a much better home than he did in CGY being on a QoC sheltered 2nd line with Kane and Wellwood; no matter how you cut it Jokinen is a decent 2nd C when not facing tough mins. Ponikarovsky is a huge addition (not just in size) as he has been the RelCorsi leader in 3/4 of his teams. Ponikarovsky-Antropov-Burmistrov will be a huge upgrade over the disastarous GST. Slater with wingers Miettinen, Cormier, Thorburn and Machacek will be as ok as a 4th line could be.
Future: I won't comment on draft choices relative to what's was on the table as I don't always agree. But, I do think the players (most)selected in the last two drafts are a decent upgrade in the pool and many will become solid difference makers. I can see why they chose Scheifele and Trouba, even if I don't agree; both are doing very well this year though!
PS I'd say LW is their area of strength when looking at their system. Ladd faces top lines, beating them with usual top20 NHL RelCorsi and scores dece 25-30 goals, Kane beats semi-sheltered competition and will likely do better with Jokinen being a better partner than undeveloped Burmistrov so 30-35 goals isn't bad there, Ponikarovsky as I mentioned has continuosly beaten tough mins and will be able to provide decent support production while playing shutdown role. I do agree that RW is a problem as Wheeler fits his role, but one of Wellwood/Burmistrov/Antropov will be given second RW and all 3 fit better a third line role.

Looking at last year: Noel gives tough OZS to his 1st pairing, tough DZS to his 2nd pair and shelters the 3rd. When paired together Enstrom-Byfuglien have a very impressive corsi and goal differential, causing them to thrive in this role, even more so than Ladd/Little/Wheeler in theirs. Also, halfway through the year Noel switched Stuart/Oduya with Hainsey for Bogosian's pair and they ended with a par corsi differential and positive goal differential even with drastic DZS and having the GST shutdown line as partners (which has been improved as shown above). Stuart is terrible at anything not truculent or character related.
Problems: There were two main problems that are linked. 1) Stuart stinks at top4. Looking at how pairings did, Stuart single-handidly caused both Byfuglien's and Bogosian's negative +/-. 2) Each one of the Jets top4 lost ~20 gp which is pretty severe for any team, especially one where Stuart covers the injuries (see point1)
Next season: Hainsey now being partnered with Bogosian is a huge plus. Clitsome for Oduya is slightly below lateral as Oduya has beter PK ability. Postma is a large upgrade over Flood, especially on the PP. They still have a problem with injuries though as I don't think Stuart, Clitsome or Postma could handle longterm top4 mins/assignments.
Future: top4 matters, bottom 2 doesn't. Enstrom is set. Byfuglien's eventual regression (with health concerns and being a rover) will time nicely with Bogosian's development to Jets #1 and Trouba can take over Bogosian's old tough mins assignments, as Trouba projects pretty safely as being more than competent in that role. I don't see anyone in Jet's system strong enough to upgrade that 2nd LD though currently.
November 19 2012, 04:05AM
Largest problem: Goaltending.
Goalie guild thinks Pav's will breakout but I'm skeptical as hell... Montoya is a bit of a risk but he had solid #'s last season until his concusion (ironically caused by E.Kane). Dekanich is also a risk in the AHL with injury concerns, but previously he was a highly respected AHL goalie. 2 seasons ago Dex was a top AHL goalie and was expected last season to fight Mason for CBJ starter position until his season was derailed with injury. Pasquale is a solid young prospect but yeaaaarrrs away from any NHL impact.
So, finally, in conclusion: Jokinen will most likely thrive where he is mostly looked at offensively on a sheltered line. Jokinen domino affect with depth and Ponikarovsky creates new-founded depth for an upgraded 3rd line. Reduce Jets' top4 D to avg of ~10gp lost per a player instead of 20 and/or give the Jets league average sv% and you have a bottom tiered playoff team. Add luck and they may even pass a round.

Give me a holler if you're ever out in Peg City and we'll wax theoretical about the rise and fall of NHL teams over a Half Pints.
Winnipeg will be in tough in the SE division for at least another season. The Phoenix Coyotes situation may resolve sooner than we think and force realignment benefiting the Jets. With Saskatoon a ready made market for NHL hockey it would seem likely the Yotes come back to Canada sooner rather than later.
Your Gary Bettman.Your telling the players we are losing millions. You approve the sale to the Thrashers to Winnipeg which immediately improves the leagues bottom line.Yet your willing as a league to throw away 10s of millions of dollars away running a team in Phoenix where there isn't a chance in hell that a "local buyer" will step up and buy the team. Never mind some yokel with a bag of beans and hope.
The Jets have opened the door to places like Saskatoon,Quebec City and Markham. If the NHL ever gets its collective head out of its rectum it will see that Winnipeg should be the future model of the NHL. Rabid fan base.Traditional hockey market. Local and Corporate support. Non competing market.No NFL.NBA.Nascar.College Football.Or whatever.Like beaches and babes in bikinis.
Winnipeg given time and current management will overcome and be a stable successful franchise for years to come.The cupboard isn't full like it is now in Edmonton.But here in Edmonton we had to pay the price and are only now seeing what might be.Kane etal are not in an enviable position.Yet the future I see is brighter than what I see in some NHL markets. Winnipeg is and will be a great market. Given time.

1. That is a lot of "ifs". Oilers and Flames fans know well what that feels like.
2. I agree. They won't do it, but I agree.
Hey Rex. Re #2...they won't do what...draft high or ever sign FAs?

flaws in the shoe
"I order this shoe thinking it is purple but the shoe is very much a bright blue! The shoe is still very pretty but the glitter on the toe is very thin and worn looking. I will have to return the shoe not because of the color but because the worn look on the toe (one shoe worse than the other) - so I am very disappointed!"

"Love these shoes, I ordered the gold and they are beautiful. Nine West shoes runs a little big on me, therefore, I had to order a half size down from my normal size and they fit perfect and the heel is 3 inch which makes these shoes comfortable to wear all day or all evening. I love these shoes so much that I'm ordering them in all of the other colors. Very pretty, classy and sexy pumps."

Reds playing like a team that all of a sudden doesn't have to overcome 20 years of irrelevance.
We're still good!
"Since I've been with the Reds in 1989, we've never had a farm system this loaded," Bowden said. "If we were the New York Yankees and had unlimited dollars, we could have traded for Colon, (Jeff) Weaver, Rolen, (Cliff) Floyd, (Kenny) Rogers and Finley and gotten them all -- and still held onto our top five prospects. That's an amazing statement."
What did you want Hurdle to do. Order the suicide squeeze with the catcher up and Champan on the mound? That would be the true "suicide" squeeze.
On another note, posters give up way too easily. Getting runners on base against Chapman is easier than scoring runs on him.
YESSSS. Go Reds. BIG win.
I heard your record..it's alright.
Throwing error aside, that may the best pitching performance of his career
reds1869 (07-21-2013)
Huge win. Chapman was outstanding in the 9th. Let's get the sweep tomorrow
What great composure from Chap.
Yes that was a very impressive infield single. I thought for a second it was leaving the yard. - texasdave 10/13/12
Dang, now I can't say the reds only have one series win against a good team anymore. I guess I can change it to the pirates being the only good team the reds can beat. Nice series win. Lets get the sweep.
The bottom of the ninth was the most intense situation of the season so far in my book. Huge, gutsy performance from Chapman. I'd love to see him start, but there's no one I'd rather have closing this side of Mo Rivera.
"I talked to an advance scout that told me if Joey Votto and Albert Pujols were on the same team he'd advise his team to do the unthinkable...pitch around Votto to get to Pujols." - Buster Olney, ESPN
I was at the game tonight and that 9th inning was one of the most stressful experiences of my Reds fandom. My heart was racing a mile a minute and it didn't calm down until we were walking to Orange Leaf after the game. Aroldis didn't even flinch though and we all erupted in the ballpark when he got that last out! I was especially happy because he shut up this one Pirates fan lady behind me (who wasn't even brave enough to wear Pirates gear to the game, LOL ) who was being really annoying.
"I tried to play golf, but I found out I wasn't very good." -Joey Votto on his offseason hobby search
An MLB.com reporter asked what one thing Votto couldnt do. I cant skate or play hockey, Votto said. Well, I can skate ... but I cant stop.

Victories are Not Enough
December 01, 2005
Authored by Dr. Samuel J. Newland.
The author concludes that the most important lesson to be gleaned from studying the German Way of War is often ignored. That is, tactical victories on the battlefield, without logical goals and an achievable Military Strategy, will not produce positive results for a nation.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Marnie and Mikey Perfect in every way! Three bench cushions for two purposes was the goal, and as bench cushions, they were perfect in every way! The gorgeous rich burgundy corduroy and deep resilient latex did not disappoint in any way! We had bought two chair cushions of the same manufacture a few years ago, to use in our sports car as seat cushions, and also found them perfect in every way, as we "older" sports enthusiasts do not sit as easily and comfortably on sports car seats anymore! Any of you who have sports car seats know! So we thought these bench cushions would be perfect under our sleeping bags in our Edge that we use as a travel camper! My bad! Even three of them did not provide enough surface for we "older and wider" campers! So, we were sorry to have to return them, but could not say enough nice things about how easy the return process is with wonderful Vermont Country Store. THANKS!!! September 15, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Songbird Fits piano bench perfectly I direct a Seniors' singing group and they rehearse for 2 hours weekly in my home so the piano gets quite a work out, especially the pad on the bench. This pad is a perfect fit and color (blue). Our piano accompanist loves it....and so do I! June 20, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5Â by csrussian53 VCS - The Best of Everything!! The 42" bench cushion is the best I've ever owned!! I bought it in the taupe color to put on a black, distressed bench, and it fits perfectly; looks very country, but still luxurious; is the perfect color for the bench and all the surrounding furniture and area rugs; is the perfect size #not too tall or puffy but just right#; and is a joy to sit on. Even my 200 lb. son says it's very comfortable. I particularly love the tufting and, of course, the latex filling which makes it a dream for me to sit on. My story is that I tried several other companies before ordering this cushion, and not one of the other cushions could compare. When they say they have the best of everything, Vermont Country Store is serious...this is most definitely the best cushion ever!! P.S. I own a rocking chair cushion set from VCS - that's why my story of searching for just the right cushion should have started with VCS...but I didn't know they now carried a 42" bench cushion; I thought they only carried a 36" one. Now that I know, I have recommended this cushion to a couple of friends who have been looking for cushions for benches larger than 36" and highly recommend either size to all!! September 26, 2014
