Eric Tillman dished out an early xmas present signing Matts Sundin to a long - term contract with the Riders.
Tillman said, "... Matts is a proven goal scorer and will add valuable points in Riders games."
-Grey Cup here we come!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That signing was only because Regina with its domed stadium wants to apply for an NHL francise. Players are being signed now so when it is biult---they will come-- and see the new team rise to the top.
Actually Turkey might be onto something.
Riders need a starting Quarterback, and Tillman asked Sundin if he could throw a football.
Hey Turkey, How about some 649 numbers next?
His agent said that given the 5 or so years to finish the initial planning on the new dome, then the 3 or 4 years to build it, and the 4 or 5 years to gain an NHL expansion team, he feels it is a quicker road to getting a Stanley Cup than going back to Toronto. Matts isn't getting any younger and he craves a cup ring.
…with those time lines…Matts better get in the ring line with Milt…some things just aren;t meant to be…
