If this is it for the season and the Pegula's plan to fire Botterill, I wonder when it will happen? After the end of the scheduled season or once playoffs start (assuming there are playoffs this season).

I'm still curious as to what happened with the PLF/Pegula break up?

I saw them in the early 90’s in Buffalo and you’re right, the pits were better then. Didn’t the singer of Zero Tolerance get arrested for murder (or accused of it?)

Portillo...with a name like that, he should have been drafted by Chicago.

Murray traded away all the stockpiled assets from “the tank” and left this team devoid of talent outside the top line. I would have rathered sat through a long rebuild with young players developing, than how Murray tried to jump start the rebuild by acquiring Kane, O’Reilly and Lehner.

Question, is it Defenceman or Defenseman? Defenceman looks Canadian.

"Back in my day, I had to walk 20 miles to school one way in two feet of snow, barefoot!"

McDavid is close with 88.

The Conjuring was a good horror movie. Movies I saw lately that I enjoyed were: Chips, The Belko Experiment and Get Out.

Damn, that brings back some memories. If I'm not mistaken, I think Selanne had 76 goals that season with Mogilny? No doubt, the Sabres would have won the cup that season with Hasek when he was the Dominator. To answer your question, I think Eichel has a good chance to get over 100 points. Maybe O'Reilly if Bylsma doesn't keep over-working him.

Amen

I agree another Top 5 pick in the draft would be very helpful for the rebuild. But I think we have to be patient as rebuilds take time. The Penguins had five years where they finished between 58 - 69 points. Same can be said about the Blackhawks. I know GMTM was hoping it wouldn't take five years, but it looks like it's going to.

Thank you Terry & Ted!!! :worthy: :thumbsup:

I agree 100% Regier's success has been few and far between. I felt he should have been fired after the 2006-07 season, when they failed to resign Drury & Briere (or got replacements for those 2). I remember getting into it with SDS (if I remember correctly) about that, and he said that I didn't know what I was talking about. And guess what...that move still haunts the Sabres as they haven't been the same since.

I know I replied to a post that I wrote to in response to JJ, but it was to emphasize my point that I agree with everyone that Regier should have been fired years ago. While I like Pegula, I feel both him & Ted Black deserve some backlash for retaining Regier (but not to the degree that some people are going to just because Pegula felt he could win the cup in 3 years).
