K-9

His “primary franchise” never came close to needing every penny he has. The Bills don’t lose money and they’ve quadrupled in value since he plunked down $1.4b but in 2014 to buy them. I think he just doesn’t wanna spend more than he has to on a business that’s losing money like the Sabres.

Actually, no. Camera footage has caught bears pooping in the road or on a footpath and then sneakily brushing it into the woods so people actually think that’s where they poop.

Witness tampering. Yeah right. Every witness was a republican and now, NOW, they claim tampering? Meanwhile the rest of the country goes to crap as Cheeto man and his fascist loyalists ignore the big picture as they seek retribution against those who actually have respect for our Constitution and the rule of law. Banana republic time again.

That would make them look like even bigger delicate waifs than they are already.

He may have already.

Pegula was right that the solution is in the room but the problem is that the solution isn’t on the ice.

I don’t condone dunking on fans of other teams, but the Ravens fans brought it all upon themselves with their preposterous assertions. As if Lamar’s feat is somehow superior because it occurred during a regular season game. But the insecurity of both fan bases is stupid.

More like historical precedent says it can be done.

“In a game” certainly does not denote that at all. Josh’s numbers were certainly amassed “in a game” so perhaps the Ravens should have put an asterisk in their article. But it’s fun to see Ravens fans equivocate like it’s going out of style.

The St. Louis Blues were dead last in league standings on January 2, 2019. They went on to win the cup months later. Brace yourselves for the epic run we are about to take.

Can’t be a satellite in a LEO constellation given the minimum altitude of approximately 180 miles or so and I'm not aware of any company currently operating a system that low. When I was with Orbcomm in another life nearly 30 years ago, our planned altitude for our constellation was something like 815 kilometers.

Collectively, this may be the most lacking in hockey sense Sabres team I’ve witnessed since their inception. Just one boneheaded play after another. I want to attribute that mostly to lack of poise because they often don’t take that extra beat to make the smarter play. I hope it’s that because poise they can acquire over time, but you can’t fix stupid.

One Bills source said the equity shares they just sold were based on a valuation of $4.5b while another Bills source said it was based on a $5.8b valuation so the Pegulas just realized a cash infusion of somewhere between $900m and $1.1b for theose equity shares they just sold. I think it’s safe to say they don’t need any help in defraying the cost overruns for the new stadium construction.

Dawk in the crowd is the best part of this otherwise forgettable game.

No. And especially on his off half-wall.

He’s bad most nights. He was never more than a 6/7 defenseman. On a good night.

Sorry I attempted any humor to lighten the mood. I’ll remember that next time I reply to your posts. Oh, and I used a different laughing face which conveys a more light-hearted response. But YMMV, so it’s all good. I think three of our last four games were against teams that were struggling at the time and we proved the perfect tonic for what ailed them.

So if the Sabres win tonight, they still won’t be in a playoff spot. Gotcha. Thanks. 😂

Botterill was fired for one specific instance of not following orders when he refused to fire 20 or so people in the operations department, including nearly all of his scouts. It was part of their austerity program during the pandemic when teams all around the league were implementing severe cost cutting measures in the face of anticipated heavy losses of revenue.

Well, I’ve seen enough of Ryan Johnson.

Thanks for this post, Punch. Seems all I’ve read are criticisms of the D, which they deserve, but sometimes you just nave to tip your hat to the players on the other team. Stafford was elite with his ball placement and what can you say about Nacua. And McVeigh showed why his play designs can give teams fits; he’s one of the best there is from a schematic standpoint. Sometimes it’s just easier to give the other guys full credit for their talents than it is to wallow in misery.

Levi with a nice 30 save shutout to lead the Amerks to a 3-0 win and return the favor for last night.

The Sabres are often the best tonic for struggling teams.
