  1. On another note, how does a ref justify not giving a penalty to a player on the bench who grabs a player by the head on the ice while play is going on. I guess I shouldn’t be surprised by anything in a league where they get a call correct and put out a note to apologize that they got it wrong.
  2. I’ll say it again, once the puck is in the offensive zone, the blue line is part of the zone. In order to “exit the zone” you have to get out and only be touching white ice in the neutral zone. You have not exited the zone by merely thouching the blue line. IMO they got the call right.
  3. I thought the blue line was always a part of the zone that the puck was in. If so, wouldn’t all the Sabres players have had to touch white ice in the neutral zone in order to clear the offensive zone and get back onside? If the puck hadn’t already crossed the line then they would have been onside by touching the blue line. But the puck was already in. Still don’t care. Hurry back onside you dope!
  4. If at 21, he doesn’t know what offsides is, and that he has to get onside on that play, well, that’s pretty much the definition of dumb.
  5. Honestly, who gives a crap about the rule. It’s a red herring. The fact that Olofsson didn’t touch the puck is just luck. Hey, Dahlin. Get onside you ***** dope!
  6. I thought KA signed Johnny Boychuk to get to the cap floor.
  7. Not to pick nits, but more than 50% of the teams make it (until this year.)
  8. Do you watch any other teams? It certainly isn't as often as it used to be, but I see it all the time, just not in Sabres games.
  9. It wasn't a goal, but I love Zegras' reaction to Milano. He absolutely could not believed he scored that goal.
  10. Yes, I know. We only want good character guys that want to be here.Who cares if they suck and get laughed at by the opponent. Just make sure they take nice pictures with the kiddies. I'll take a$$holes that I don't like who win, anyday. It's not "just a game" (I ***** HATE that phrase). It's professional sports. That is a huge difference.
  11. Where was this thread in October?… September? Are people really surprised by this team, now? This is the team and season we knew we had back then. We were in 31st place and we got rid of everyone that mattered. It's a tank. Ride it like a wave, baby. At least we get to cheer some goals.
  12. I completely disagree with this. If it's a tank (and I have truly believed that it is for quite some time), for god's sake don't say it. Why should he give a crap about what the fans think as long as he has a plan and is sticking to it? Jack's non-answer about it getting personal from "higher up than KA" in that Barstool interview tells me all I need to know. I think once KA knew he lost Jack, the tank was on and the yard sale started, and once again, this is the path we're stuck with. I think we're in a better position this time around, though. It looks like we actually have some prospects worth a crap, and the team can actually score now (didn't we set a record lowest number of goals scored in one of the tank years?) Get some more high end talent in the next draft and actually fix the goaltending, and we're in business.
