Good for you, I was just passing along info on how the system worked, no credit needed

They know which players are making league minimum and which signed for 7-figures.

Have the dinner. Let the vets gorge themselves scaring the bejezus out of the rookies with the potential bill. When the check comes to the table, let Dahlin pick up the tab. Change the name to the Captain’s Dinner.

The minimum NHL salary is roughly $4K per day. Between his NHL per diem and getting his brief pay in NHL dollars, even a guy like Kuntar would probably break even. Plus my experience is that NHL players are more caring of their rookie teammates than their football brethren. They won’t bankrupt the kids.

Were you posting here then?

I'm looking forward to Monday when nothing happens and we all lose our minds. 😜 (It will more likely be Tuesday just to give everyone a chance to rest up from getting in late Monday from Seattle and Finland.)

Like I said, you can lose with him and you can lose without him.

Rookies still make good money. They can afford it.

I may sound like a spoilsport but I don’t like the tradition where lesser paid rookies end up shelling out for richer and older players while they pig out and drink expensive beverages. It should be the other way around where the younger players are embraced as teammates and are taken care of.

A Gorditos burrito could feed a hockey player.

The Wild are all-in. Fun target for Tuch.... The problem is they've got NTCs and NMCs like they don't have palm trees. Tarasenko has a M-NTC (signed from Yzerman). But they definitely need an upgrade from Tarasenko or Marcus Johansson in their top 6 if they really want to get past Colorado.

I don’t see a HC change this season even with a newly installed GM unless there is a team meltdown. Replacing the current GM is the priority, and then whatever follows be in the hands of someone who is more competent.

Snow in the forecast. Could be another adventure.

Dinner was at Tiki Taco. Bill was $88.50

Generally I agree with this and understand why Appert would be thought of as unqualified. However, professional coaching is amongst the least predictive of all professions. So who knows?

In order to fix the culture you need to burn the front office and start over, that includes the coaching.

It is harder for the Sabres to make big and consequential deals because so many players have Buffalo listed on their NTCs. When you become a scorned team because of your wretched reputation, the trade pool to consider is much smaller to draw from. Embarrassing reality.

Even if Jarmo becomes the GM, I don’t see a coaching change being made this season.

Bosa and Palmer back in today, Benford situation unknown, is he good to go or will he be sidelined by the toe? Seeing some fans over optimistic, putting Bills 40+ Pats 24. If Benford isn’t ready it will be a difficult day for he secondary, it may be…… A Toe to Far……. Go Bills!

“But it’s hard to make moves in today’s nhl”

If Jarmo becomes the GM, he’ll select the coach. If they are going to do this, just go it already. Other teams are making moves, see the Jarry and Hughes trades. No time like the present to get something done.

Adams’ hand selected successor to Lindy. The architect of a chronically underperforming power play. Can we please not? (Pegula likely will.)

He's allegedly made derogatory comments towards a child.

He was a stud in juniors. I always thought he’d be a star in the NHL, but he just fizzled out.
