Did they give any more details? This one sounds like a broken glass table or something.

The wife and I did one of those once. I'm not sure which picture was worse. We did whatever the hell we wanted instead of following their lead.

See, I think he should do his version of whatever mural she comes up with. It'll be a nice contrast of styles.

For whatever reason, I picture d4rk painting a stick figure version of one of Josie's previous Sabre pictures on the side of your house.

Assuming they get him signed, what do they do to move on from the Lehtonen/Niemi two-headed monster? Each has a year left on their contracts so can they actually find a trade partner or do they wind up buying out either of them?

Is there anything written into the rules that stops a team from reclaiming a drafting player if they wind up on waivers in October? I don't believe for a second that Ullmark will be claimed, but I'll use him as an example. If Vegas picks him, but then waives him to send him down to the minors in October, can Buffalo just claim him back? They're going to be picking 30 players, so some wind up traded or waived shortly after. Speaking of the minors, do they have an affiliate yet?

We really need to get back to the playoffs. I can't take this tournament seriously when it has revolving door rosters and takes place at the same time as the world's greatest sports tournament.

If there's anything I hate more than power rankings, it's power rankings months before the start of training camp. I guess they give people something to talk about this year, but once things get started, the only power ranking that matters is the one where the Bills finish 7-9 each year.

Don't take this as a defense, but I can't help but laugh at the logic in that writers take on the drafting of Hodgson. Using the tenth pick to take the worst guy in the top ten. Isn't that how it's supposed to work? He couldn't have drafted those better earlier guys because they were already gone.

I wouldn't go that far. He had the chance to work on the defense but he instead focused more on the offense. Whether or not that's worthy of a firing is another story all together. To say that if given the chance, he would have succeeded is a bit of a stretch. I think it's perfectly reasonable to question his evaluation of the position given that the guys he has actually added to the position haven't worked out so well. He may have been able to fix it, but personally I'm doubtful on that. But at this point, we'll never know.

No, the only thing other GMs are going to do in that situation is to immediately call Joe Sakic.

And they're both BU, so clearly it's a done deal

Ten days ago I had to replace an 8 month old tire because of a nail. This morning? Nail in the same tire.

I have to say, that much money locked up in a pair of wings scares me a bit. It's one thing when you've got good young guys on their ELCs, but those are about to end. Edmonton is the only team that immediately came to mind with that much locked up on wings (Eberle, Lucic), but we'll see what happens there once McDavid maxes out (and Draisaitl's raise). Is there anyone else, Minnesota maybe?

We get it, you recently learned how to use the ignore feature. He sounds like a canadian to me.

That's less than he makes now. He'll laugh at that kind of proposal.

I think I'd take that over the current version where I can never find anything anymore.

This has to be the worst post-draft topic I have ever read.

Post the link. You're going to bring on some trouble if you keep cut and pasting stuff like that.

Well I did beat up Kublai Khan a while back. True story.

You should probably link to the article because I have a hard time trying to figure out exactly what kind of logic leads to those changes.

I know that when I encounter one of life's crazy circumstances, the first thought that comes to mind is what Mike Rowe (or any other "celebrity") would think. It's gotten me through many tough spots.

Am I the only one who reads one of our poster's name as "Gay Sabre Fan"? Not that there's anything wrong with that.

I finished Final Fantasy XV last night and I still have absolutely no clue what was going on during the entire game.
