  1. Trolls gotta troll.
  2. Levi will be a staring goalie for the Sabres. it will be a while, though.
  3. As a fan,... not sure I care. As a fan,... I don’t give a flyin’ ***** about the economic viability of the Buffalo Sabres as a long term franchise. Just win. Rigas was a better owner than the Pegulas. I bet he wasn’t at the draft table.
  4. Sure you did.
  5. "… how hard can it be to just have him sign a waiver…" Cuz Jack is smart enough to not "just sign a waiver." I like Lehner here. But his conclusions are skewed.Jack and the team have equal "blame" in this whole thing. I put the term blame in quotes because I don't think there is any. Both sides are just trying to make the best out of a crappy situation.
  6. This one is dee lish ous!!!
  7. I get a kick out of your use of the word “facts.”
  8. Time to get rid of the national anthem.
  9. Very confident (even though the NHL has done a horrible job walking people through this change.) I ordered it for the same reason. For eighteen dollars more per year, I not only get NHL games, but the Marvel and Star Wars universes as well. Plus, Nine Perfect Strangers on HULU was pretty entertaining.
  10. Ya know, I was actually thinking this was exactly like covering up a murder. Uncanny,...
  11. You kinda jumped in mid conversation so my points might not be pointed directly at you.
  12. I never said you don’t need high end draft picks to be good. I said you don’t need to intentionally get bad in order to get them. And you certainly don’t get rid of the talent that you have in order to get them. Let me state this one more time, good teams have high picks that help them win because, and wait for it, every team has high picks that help them win. The last place team last year had 5 top 1 or 2 OA picks on it! It is not the differentiating factor that makes teams good. ***** it. Enjoy your endless cycle of tanks. It’s obviously what you want.
  13. And I think it was more like 125K before the pandemic.
  14. I apologize. I’m sorry he’s a blockhead.
  15. Um, what? A few years back they were a positive against every line they played a against for the entire year. The year after that, they were a positive against every line but one (Okoposo, Girgs, and Larsson.) They we’re called the Perfection Line. Look, whether or not you think you have to get worse in order to get better, that’s an opinion, and I will never change mine. Maybe not last season, but that line being the best line for a long time is a fact,... and they were drafted 25th, 25th, and 45th.
  16. It was Boston's top Line. How can you guys continue to miss the point? Go over the rosters of all teams, even losing teams. They all have just as many if not more 1st overall picks on them and many top five picks. Look at the Sabres FFS! Last year we had 2 1st and 3 2nd OAs. Collecting early draft talent does not ensure winning.
  17. Did bad teams get good? Yes. Did they get good because they were bad? Absolutely not. That's ridiculous. They got good because they got good.
  18. Leafs still haven't won a playoff series and I notice that Edmonton is not on that list. Curious. In fact, the list of teams that didn't make your list is way longer.
