This thread, lately, makes me feel...

Aww!

LIGHT 'EM UP! STANLEY'S CUP HERE WE COME!!

He keeps getting injured, which means a built-in excuse for rotating alternates.

Will you all quiet down, now? Yeesh. Like ladies at bingo.

DAMN! It's amazing Hutton's head is still on his body after hitting the ice like that. His neck must be quite limber.

It's about time. Let's play some hockey and win.

If I remember correctly, it's pretty clear, but an enviable stream, and a lengthy pour.

I said it better. ?

So...this is page 69 of this thread. I'm just here to say I'm in.

I can't think of a more miserable way to begin the season than to feel the dark shadow of expectations once again seeping into the locker room. As I mentioned earlier today, with the buzz word being "culture", another practice when the schedule is so tight early will suck the fun out of it for the boys. I think one of the priorities of the team is to try and somehow allow the players to have fun with what they're doing and re-capture the loose-ness of the game from their youth that made it special for them. As Stephen King once wrote "All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy."

I guess that was not Sun Tzu, but Michael Corleone.

Maybe JBott is a disciple of Sun Tzu: "Keep your friends close and your enemies closer."

The longer this game goes on, the more annoying it becomes. Just name a captain. Every fricking team has a captain, there's a reason for it, whatever. If the "C" is "no big fricking deal" then just name a guy and get it done with. WTF.

Hockey trade. Might not be the best move for the farm clubs, but it's a good move for the mothership. And probably a good move for the players, too.

This could very well be among the reasons he was sent down. Remember the buzz word is "culture". You don't want someone with an attitude like that messing up the culture. Better to break him of that, first, like sending a horse to the Amish.

Looks like Tage and Mitts made it.

$45 a month. You need to check with them about whether your zip or IP will allow you to get the Sabres MSG feed, though. FWIW, you also get a lot of usual cable channels, too.

That's exactly what I have - FuboTV and an indoor HD antenna. Works perfect.

Not watching the game, but the NHL live game tracker gives me the impression Mitts is a face-off wizard. Discuss.

I mainly agree with the Dahlin take. Not sure I agree fully with Mittelstadt. Depending on how the rest of the roster shakes out, I might be fine with him staying up...or not. I'm on the fence, still, with that guy.

So they have Dahlin with the DJ, huh? No like.

I like this team. I really do.

Nice! I like how Dahlin seems to be always aware of where Eichel is.

That's the best play I've seen from Midddllestadtt all preseason.
