What’s with the blood clots with NHL and NBA players all of a sudden? Kulich is at least the third NHL player this year and I know that “Wem” and a few lessor players were diagnosed in the NBA last year. When Chris Bosh first had to retire due to them it seemed like an anomaly, now it seems rather common.

This is the right thing to do but man, this team needs some sort of spiritual cleansing.

I actually do have two tickets left. I forgot we had one person back out. PM me if you want them.

Excellent. Everyone that has gotten tickets from me, please PM me the email address you want tickets sent to. I’ll reply with a question about your seating preference.

Sunday, November 23rd, 1pm We are meeting at Union Pub beforehand. i would like a head count of anyone intending to join us at the bar.

What this team needs to solve “most” of its problem is for Tage, Alex and Rasmus to step up. There are other issues but them three playing up to their ceiling and they’d be in first place right now.

They can’t send Ellis down, St. Louis would most assuredly reclaim him. The only real option is to trade UPL but I don’t think that’s likely. The goal is, or should be to find the right guy, similar to when they had Miller, Biron and Noronen. Everyone always thought they’d be able to flip that into something substantial and they ended up with a couple of picks but at least they got the guy.

Just a reminder, this game is coming up. I still have one ticket left if anyone is interested.

If there was ever a game that illustrated how slim the line between winning and losing can be, I don’t remember it. There were literally three plays within fifteen minutes that could have gone either way. I turned down a chance to be there but I’m not sure if that’s a bad thing.

I didn’t mean to imply that the drop in save percentage wasn’t accurate, just that it didn’t start this year. Access to new data has changed a lot of what has always been believed about all sports. Teams are adapting and changing the way games are played. It’s actually quite fascinating.

I think this is at least partly correct. Also, as I stated up thread, this year is significantly better than last year, although a very small sample size.

Not sure what you are talking about. Last year only ten teams finished above .900 and Buffalo finished 31st st .879 ahead of only the Flyers.

He’s played 71 and 75 games his first two years. This year’s initial injury was from a puck to the face. He has not proven to be injury prone.

I’ve never understood why people worry about the guy that’s traded. All I care about is if Buffalo got better. Maybe Dallas wished they had kept Iginla. All I would have cared about is that Joe N helped me win the Cup.

I didn’t mean to imply that everyone was hating on Power but I do believe that your assessment of the play is incorrect. I wouldn’t want him jumping up in regulation but I want him to make that plsy in overtime 10/10 times.
