Nice...but the mens final was one for the ages.

Not really. Not at his contract price.

I've already given up.

I think he's a bit better than a 3rd line d-man, but his stock and overall play is probably at a low point coming off this year, so he's definitely a buy low situation. As has been mentioned, my interest would be lukewarm since he'll probably command more than he's worth, and not necessarily the right fit for the Sabres. He went through stretches two years ago, where I honestly thought he looked better than Fox, but he's definitely regressed from that.

Just won tickets to see Sublime at CMAC in August. Now I gotta convince the wife to come with but she’s gonna have reservations as I’m gonna be a space cadet for the show.

I’d rather have McDavid from the Oilers. Unfortunately neither he nor Schneider were the players in the rumor. You don’t think he’s an improvement over Muel or Clifton?

Ahh *****. You were there too? I def would have hunted you down. We were maybe 30’ from the center-right of the stage. Right on the edge of the circle of moshers. A beer cup was definitely in jeopardy of going down in that spot! Yeah that video was disturbing LOL. From what I have been led to believe it is a poorly kept secret that Edsel is doing front man duties for Static-X with Wayne gone. So he had quite the night fronting Dope, getting his vocal chords some rest while Gwar did their thing, and then killing it with Static-X. Fun show for sure.

I’d rather have Schneider from the Rags

Why does Terry fly to Montreal to give his “the answers are in the room” speech to the players? This organization can’t be so incompetent that they think that the speech will turn things around when they desperately needed help. But again this is a team that thinks the coaching staff is fine and the goaltending is fine so I have no clue.

Spent the weekend in Central NY for two Avett Brothers shows at Beak and Skiff. And lemme tell you something. That Beak and Skiff venue is really something. I can't say enough good things about the facilities they've put together. I will look forward to returning for more shows (likely the Avetts in 2027). It involves a weekend-away type plan for people in the 716, but it is well worth the effort. Bonus/value added: We stayed in a cottage in the woods of Cazenovia. The cottage is on the same plot as the owner's home -- so a VRBO/Air BnB, but the good kind (since the owner is present and invested). We also kicked around the Village (of Cazenovia) and found a very nice hike to do on Saturday during the day. I was heretofore unfamiliar with the towns and villages that populate that Fingers Lakes stretch of Route 20. Rolling hills, etc. Just beautiful.

Nothing. He's overrated.

Wish I had checked this thread, would have kept an eye out for you. Great show, can't believe how good Static-X still sounds. The tribute to Wayne during Cold was very nice. GWAR was wild. Going to be thinking about the video from that Lot Lizards song for a while...

Those 6'5" dudes under 200 lbs would need to have the frame capable of putting on some serious bulk...otherwise you are going to get a big guy that gets pushed all over the ice because they have a serious lack of muscle, especially lower body.

Would this be our modern day Mike Grier like player, or at least filling the same type of role?

Hyman’s don’t come back without surgery.

I’m not sure we’ll “miss” on Mrtka. I suspect he’ll be there at 9. I think it will come down to if we want him or someone else. But I like the idea of those guys though. I also looked into that big winger you like for our 2nd round pick. I’d love it if we came away with some big boys in this draft.

I'd need more than Miller for 9th. I can draft better Miller in Mrtka. Sure I gotta wait 2yrs but wth are we doing with yet another lhd anyways? At least mrtka plays the right.

I like Samuelsson, Rosen and a third to sweeten it. It gets Samuelsson out the door, moves a player I don't see as a realistic top six option and a draft pick for an upgrade. Not sure this will be enough, but at least a start.

His Dad is Kjell, came up briefly with the Rangers but is known as a Flyer and a Penguin. https://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=4744

And not the 9th overall pick either Didn’t Muel’s dad play for the Rangers?

He had wrist surgery, ligament damage. The word was him being out for the playoffs.

Miller is a 3rd line d-man on a good team. A one to one swap for Muel, and maybe we toss in a grade B prospect or 3rd round pick. No way you trade Power or Byram for him and then think he is going cover those minutes. He is not good enough and the Rangers know that. Sabres always working on the fringe - fooling with the 3rd pair defense and 4th line is not going to move the needle. Improve the top 4 defense and the top 6 forwards and then move some current roster players down. The only 4th line player they need is one that will be an enforcer. Sorry Kevyn, but Malenstyn/Lafferty are not that guy.

What I'm saying is this: If you miss on Mrtka 6'5.75" 218lbs you have the following Psenicka: 6'5" 185lb (late switch to CHL, upside) Amico: 6'5.5" 232lbs (knee surgery in November, upside) Kettles: 6'5.5" 195lbs (Sept bday, upside)

Muel. Maybe both players just need a change of scenery.
