I love this skit

Yes there is

Finally decided winning is important.

ABU works. (Anyone but UPL.)

He is back. He probably feels better now. No point in arguing over what a person thinks someone else meant. Go Sabres!

As stated in a follow-on post, the assistance the Sabres got for Lehner was well after he'd gone a long time without help. Get him help when the issues were 1st arising and maybe we see a different result. As for Ullmark, have seen stuff claiming they did provide him with enough support and stuff claiming they didn't. Thus the use of the words "apparently" & "felt." Do hope that you're correct that they were as supportive as he felt they needed to be and it was simply (not really the right word, but hopefully you get what was intended by its usage) his dad passing while the world was shutdown due to Covid and that alone was why he wanted to move on. But wouldn't be surprised if there was more to it; they made him an offer that the Bruins then beat and they offered to then match that; that didn't sit well with him.

Always listen to music. All kinds of music. It’s good for the soul.

No.

Is there such a thing as an AHL prospect? That’s the only contract he has right now and that’s his future.

I highly doubt Pegula would sell the team versus have his eldest take over. Then she would likely hire someone like a Shanahan to run the team’s hockey department while she runs the business/ownership responsibility. You’d just need to find a way to let Terry be around and feel seen without having him interfere. Then he’d be happy and we would be too

Unsure if it had to be an operation or just merely a very important appointment. For instance, finding out if the heart is working right and isn’t being rejected and thus can start working it some to retrain her body and actually recover.

Wrong, they did get Lehner therapy for his depression issues. The Isles did better though by sending him to alcohol treatment. Ullmark was happy with the Sabres treatment of him during his mourning. He even made note to mention that in his article that the Sabres treated him well but he wanted to get a fresh start in a different venue because it reminded him too much of his Dad. (In part) Besides the whole Eichel thing, we’ve actually had a good track record with treating players well. Tage and his wife were also helped for instance.

This is what a real franchise looks like. Still want everyone from the Eichel disaster shown the door, but at least there’s finally a hint they’ve learned something. I would love to know if Ruff, Adams and TP were all on the same page in letting him go? This makes sense

I dunno... it takes a lot to get rid of existential dread. Almost as bad as exterminating cockroaches.

Dee-troy-it.

Lindy you of all people should know that any jolt that Dahlin gives this team, as great as he is, will be a short term jolt at best. The real jolt this team needs right now is for Adams to be fired immediately, followed by another jolt if we fail to make the playoffs again where you are replaced as well, as much as I like you as a person.

Its Saturday afternoon and I just don’t know if wasting my night on this team is in the forecast. Don’t get me wrong a win would make my night but there hasn’t been much joy in any of this yet this season. Not many positives at all. Hopefully Terrance Pegula is doing a slow cook on the staff he’s assembled and a loss might turn that up to broil but a win is what I hope for.

I don't think it's dread. It's indifference. Which is worse.

Note: 1 F-bomb makes the audio in this clip NSFW If you watch this, watch it four times: The forward facing cam The husband The wife The dog (Note, no cam car creatures were injured)

Vince Carter said in an interview about buying into the Bills that they dealt with Pegula’s daughter.

If Existential is a ten on the scale of dread, what is the normal amount of dread we Sabre fans experience on game day? “Spiraling” dread? If we were playing Card Sharks, I’d say “that's going to be a higher number”. Must Tie.

If you've ever owned a Volvo you know you have to keep up with the maintenance.

Pure speculation: I wonder if maybe she had a follow-up surgery or some other procedure and he felt he needed to be there for her. The procedure went well, she recovered and it's time to return. If it was known ahead of time and there was significant risk involved, it could have been why it was affecting his play earlier, and why he's all smiles now.

That's not the way it's portrayed in this article on NHL.com:

Yes of course. We saw what a difference it made in retaining Ullmark when they allowed him to take a leave when his father died.
