Jets head coach Rick Bowness, in his chat with Daily Faceoff, indicated that Blake Wheeler will not wear an ‘A’ this season. Not a big surprise there.
Also the beer of choice for the new Jets bench boss is Bud Light.
Lots to hear in this 25 or so minute discussion.

So can we expect that #26 will be traded this season?
Is this the first confirmation that Blake won’t have an A?
I feel better having listened to him. But at the same time I thought PoMo was a better communicator than he is. I liked his interviews but hated his systems, so I think I’m going to make the conscious choice to be naively optimistic for this year. I like that his first move was to strip wheeler naked. Brass balls.
