Assuming none of you won the lottery last night, here's how it could have gone down:
Perreault. Hasek. All time Sabre greats. Andreychuk. A near all-time Sabre great. You loved Yuri and you really love his daughter. You're not over the Kassian trade yet. Then, you go Costanza — yes, I will do the opposite! — for the Powerball.
11, 13, 25, 39, 54 — 19

What's the early thinking on how we can bungle the names? We're pretty safe with Evander Kane, but I think we'll see the odd "Evandar." The other dude — we're gonna see a lot of Zack Bogosions, I'm afraid.

GMTM says the Sabres "might be back in that picture" when Enroth hits the free agent market this summer.
-
iCorsi .....is it really that hard to understand? What's complicated about the idea that more shots are directed toward the opponents net?
You've had a year to look at what a bad Corsi looks like. The Sabres ARE bad Corsi if you require a visual.
I know what Corsi is. It's not complicated. Thanks for proving my point.
Dividing by 60 and throwing an "i' in front of Jim's name doesn't make these dweebs geniuses.

All aboard the Antti Niemi bandwagon! :)
No. I'm Anti Niemi.

How much more attractive does Buffalo suddenly look for free agents this summer? It now looks like a franchise trying to win in the short-term.
Astats are interesting on Kane: he's 14th in the league in iFenwick/60 (individual shots and missed shots per 60 minutes of player time) and 13th in iCorsi/60 (same with blocked shots added).
On a team that needs to shoot more, he adds.
iCorsi huh? Analytics continues to look like a sham to me.
Some dude from TSN and Mike Schopp were practically breathless talking about Kane's goal production per 60 minutes of ice time. Really? Do these guys think they just invented the calculator?
-
Welp.
I guess it makes sense: GM TM has a strong preference for big 'tenders, and little Johnas is a pending UFA. So, trade him for a pick and a big goalie (who might return to form).
Lindback is UFA as well.
-
I don't listen to WGR during the afternoon. Who are these idiots?
White's voice is just a hammer to the brain. He needs to slow down.

Hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things.

This just occurred to me: Murray did his homework to make sure Bogosian wasn't one of the Jets who had an issue with Kane, right?
"Team of Rivals" worked for Lincoln. I don't understand the idea that teams have to be full of guys who get along and that all of your players have to be politically-correct team players. Bring on the Bickering Sabres. It would be a huge breath of fresh air over the pablum we've had over there for years.

Incognito?
Shut up.
No you shut up.

I'm not sold on the players coming back. What's the problem with that?
Nobody can be sold on them right now. That's not the point. Do you like the cut of this trade's jib? Selling off potential for two established young players?
-
Meanwhile, not for nothing, has this trade actually been confirmed by either team or the league?
-
ERRRG ERGG LOOK AT ME MY NAME IS FAKE YURI I AM GRUMP!!!
I would rather have a team and I think we are actually take 1 step forward and 2 steps back with this craptastic, ###### overrated horrendous terrible barforific trade of TITANIC LEVEL ######!
I know. Change is hard.
-
This... all of this...
I can't even formulate words as to how much I hate this.
Erg. Wouldn't you rather have real NHL players to talk about next season than more kiddie talk?
-
So we get a head case and a defensive defenseman who can't stay healthy for that package? WOW.
You roll the dice. Stafford, Armia, Myers and Lemieux weren't taking us anywhere anytime soon.
-
A blow to prospect talk. I like it. Now have to work on analytics.
-
What they had wasn't working. Bold move. Only part I don't like is losing Lemieux. But they get a 23 year old first line power forward.
Well said. That's about it.
-
Come on guys. Don't go wobbly. They gave up virtually nothing. A piece of garbage and some potential. Got two real players in return. Welcome to the cold, hard world of GMTM. Feel so much better about the rebuild now. Y'all were warned, by Tim himself actually in so many words, don't fall in love with the kids.
-
Do it. I just read Kane has an ego and is a non conformist. Perfect. I am sick of boring guys blathering on as good teammates. Shake it up GMTM!
-
I remember Scotty as being more stoic. Jeez, I have a peptic ulcer just from watching him in that clip. And let the record show Bert was not smoking.
-
Like a meth cooker trying to drum up business, the first episode is free on iTunes! (thereafter 2.99, price break for buying the whole season)
-
That year, if I remember right, the NHL required white ice to border the red so it's easier to see icing and 2-line passes. If you put the images on two tabs a switch between them it's easier to see.
Thanks.
The inside of the (bison's) right horn is black in one and grey in the other one. I don't see a difference between 98 and 99.
ah. that's why it looks grey.
98 has more stripes.
-
I hate the memory of the brawl. To me, it marks the day we officially became the Senators' (again). They take out our captain on a borderline hit, and the response (after Stafford jumped Neil, anyway) was, uh, borderline ridiculous.
-
What's the difference between 1999 and 2000? The year labels are a little confusing.
Did Mike Grier face any racial issues in Buffalo?

He didn't like it when they played Black Betty.
