D-Lo is taking no prisoners!

THIS IS GREAT! The cameraman is going to break the camera's pivot following this action.

Yay, Samson!

Pull the goalie!!

When it comes down to making out, whenever possible, put on side one of Led Zeppelin IV.

I don't think he's changed the pairings much, just the third wheels.
-
I think the pairings have more to do with matching each others' speed rather than complimentary skill-sets. I don't think Bylsma's approach is working here, but, then again, I am a slightly impatient fan.

Great posts, folks. Leaves me with nothing to add.

Swamp was right when he observed that the Panthers were playing a heavy game. That might be the book against the Sabres for now, to deal with the Sabres' speed. It's such a young team, and everything is still new. Looks to me like Kane is playing a bit frustrated. Indeed, I think the team looks frustrated. They need to loosen up. It'll get there.

Of course, but to what end? Strictly business? Which, is cool, but, that still places him in the "I chose Buffalo to corner the market on high-end development. I will be Buffalo's god-king when I am done." category. ...and I'm okay with that. Almost jealous. -

For whatever reason, I can't get the search engine for this site to ever return reliable results. Or, in this case, results at all. But, the essence of this topic has been talked to death. I think, if memory serves, several people tried to say Pegula was doing this to become a god-king for the local area (meaning, he wants to re-boot the local economy and look good doing it). This, of course, was poo-poo'd by many others. The next obvious question is "why would he want to conduct an socio-economic experiment here?" -
It seems a lot of people seem to default to Samson as the guy who will sit out. The idea of this, though, is contrary to Murray's objective for the year as a growth/development year. I'm not going to look for quotes, he's said something to that effect enough since the summer. As discussed in das Rhindeheart thread, it's clear there is a split amongst the postership over the strategy for Samson's development. But, I just don't see Rinehard going to the AHL unless he starts to fall behind the rest of the bottom six, which I don't believe has happened.

Thanks, W, for picking up the baton and getting the GDTs going.

I don't think Zadorov was traded because Murray is short-sighted or he was what it would take to get the deal done. On the contrary, I think Zadorov was traded because Murray didn't want a lazy player with an attitude messing up the locker room and Zadorov WAS what helped get the deal done.

Wow. That's a pretty glaring discrepancy between regular NHL-er and "star".

Grigorenko is a victim of Darcy's haste and paranoia. I will always believe that. He could have been handled so much better.

Not even close phonetically.

I like Jack-Jack from The Incredibles. If I had time, I'd make an animated GIF from the video and replace the face.

I mean, there isn't even anything phonetically close to "Yeichel". Believe me, I looked.

The best he can do with it is "Eichel scooorreees! Yikes All!" But, no, he needs to take this one back to the drawing board. It's too forced.

I was looking up variations on what could be "Yeichel" when I was struck with that realization. It's the most simple thing and makes sense because of that. Also, it sounds like "Yike - al", which, again, is RJ in his cheesy glory. Yes.

Well, since we're talking aesthetics, you can't remove the context in which Eichel's goal was scored. Beyond the execution and speed of the wrist shot, you have its lack of telegraphing and acute accuracy. Most guys would shoot that somewhere into the goalie, or far wide. But, none of that happens without Eichel just stopping time to retrieve the puck after an errant pass. I will give you that Bob's reaction to the ROR goal was notable, but the goal itself was, at best, an ideal PP goal. That, of course, is good, but, again, if we're comparing aesthetics, the Eichel goal was, sublime.

I figured out the "Yeichel" thing. It's a soft "J" combined with "Eichel". Like "Juan" or, phonetically, "hwahn". "Hwy-kal" - this is RJ, cheesy to the core. He sees "JEichel" or "Jeichel".

I wonder if that means McCabe is staying. They're still one man over when Bogo comes back.
