Not really, but Boston has had recent success and doesn't have streaks like, "Haven't won a cup in 5x years" and "haven't won a playoff series in 19 years". I really want to see those continue, where Boston can win another if it has to be that way.

That's what we're all rooting for of course, but I'd even settle for a second-round loss considering how much they've given up.

Careful with these. We've long lambasted the Leafs on being all-offence, no-defence, but the current Sabres are 110% that if they make the playoffs. I don't see the Sabres getting out of first round with the tighter play either.

Same, the Sabres spent a decade or two in mediocre/terrible jersey wilderness. Whatever superstition is driving this doesn't work for me.

I suspect the OP knew both those things when writing the post. 😉

The 70s Habs were in the prime window of the last of the pre-draft players, where the Habs had the rights for every 12 year old that could skate and lived east of Kingston via their Junior affiliations[0]. IMHO, that's what drove that dynasty more than anything. [0] I'm partly joking about the scope

But but we have a game in hand! 🙂

The 9-ish minute highlights on YouTube show up maybe 30 minutes after the end of the game. I almost never track games real-time, so this works perfectly for me. Sportsnet or NHL post the same video (more or less).

He seems like a savvy investor. I wonder if he likes exotic snakes.

Protect children from what?

The bold is the important part, I think. If you are in Buffalo broadcast area, not sure you can get the games on ESPN+. You'd need MSG in some format.

Just as long as it doesn't get us this: (side, note, greatest goalie of all time cameo in there)

No, because it's the Leafs.

Some... Most?... People aren't satisfied with what they have no matter how much that is. They haven't figured out how to actually be happy. This instance just seems so dumb, and apparently his father is involved? There's all kinds of conclusions to jump to there.

Have you tried holding the paper in your hand rather than teeth?

My guess is "tweaking" the radar was just lowering the signature that gets noticed. The original design was probably set for something like light aircraft (like a Cessna or an Ultralight) because that was the threat they were thinking about. Lowering that threshold likely means they'll be getting tons more alerts that they have to run down only to find it's a lost Mylar balloon from a kids party or whatnot. Hopefully not so many that they just start ignoring them, which is the way alerts usually work; after enough false positives people just stop checking (myself included). So, if you're an engineer that's not a terrible answer, just changing requirements.

I'd be willing to bet that's from an Iggles fan.

He's at least mildly friendly with the top of the Russian ruling class, so I'm sure a jet can be arranged. Yep. I'm sure there's some commercial path (if it involves Russia) like US - London - Belarus - etc..

Yeah, agree. I think next year will be UPL and Comrie in the crease to start, and whomever gets into a groove will be the starter. Comrie since it's his last year on the contract, and UPL because he's the best in the system (so far). I suppose Levi could play his way on the Sabres only if one of them implodes.

SPOILERS! LOL

I thought bend-don't-break was kinda predicated on the offense being great so the D just has to be good enough. It doesn't work if you prioritize the D personnel over adding what the O needs.

I have an actual Roku, so I looked. There isn't a FIOS app as far as I can see. It's a relatively recent Roku 4k stick, so I'd think if it existed I'd see it. Most cable apps for the Roku (like say Discovery Channel or MSG) will have a provider login where you log in with you FIOS creds and then you can use their app to do stuff. The one link above mentioned screen mirroring. That's a solution too, even if I find it kinda annoying.

3-4 months ago, the Bills looked unstoppable. Since then, they've looked very stoppable, with no changes being made to fix it.

We can differ on the terminology, but if you punch someone with no warning it's a sucker punch to me. Mullet was running his mouth, but made no move to actual violence. Snowflake just wound up and hit him.
