Leino---going goalless as a full- time forward in the NHL should be in the carrion hall of fame
-
this trade spiller stuff...come on. yes he has underachieved and been misused. but you trae him then fred is too old in a yr or 2 and then you have to use picks on a rb. bad idea.
-
the idea is to make it not look too tanky. beautiful job so far. completely justified.
-
The Sabres,not the Bills,,hired Polian as a special advisor. He is the king.
-
If they buy out the best tank commander in the NHL , Leino , then the tank has ended
yep--...
I am still in a state of wonderment about NO GOALS.--I mean something shoulda deflected off his ear or skate or something.Its a law of physics.

Best Euro ever? That's a toughie. Not sure I'd take Dom before Forsberg or Lidstrom if I were starting a team. Or maybe Peter Stastny. There's also Selanne and, if Russians are included, Bure. And Malkin and Ovechkin will put themselves in this discussion by the time they're done.
And I think I would also take Perreault before Dom if I were starting a team.
you always take the superstar goalie first. you do realize that dom carried an average team to the finals once and deep into the playoffs a few times.add malkin or ovechkin or any of them to an average team and you get a slightly above average team.

6-10..theres some talent...but no QB

So did Don Beebe really, but the defense had to respect him.
yeah true. beebe was funny he dropped the easy ones caught the tough ones.
NFL bylaws prevent untalented megaselling pop/rock stars from owning a team. KISS,FOREIGNER etc. The blacklist is endless.

buff needs a superstar. the closest we've had to that since hasek has been non-superstar briere. real playmakers.

OK....here's an interesting storyline...
How will Hodgson fare under Ted Nolan? It's one thing to be called out and benched as a floater by Ron Rolston, but given the family backstory and Nolan's insistence on bringing 100% effort and intensity, is Hodgson going to be the poster boy for setting the guys straight? If you're going to make a guy work til he pukes, he sure seems like the target.
Pierre Turgeon was the greatest floater in the history of hockey
From an old TBN article in 2002:
A few months ago, Nolan saw the movie "Ali" and starting thinking. Muhammad Ali went to prison after refusing to fight in the Vietnam War. He was exiled from boxing, but he never stopped thinking he was a champion. Eventually, he came back and proved himself again.
"I never stopped being a coach," Nolan said. "And I never stopped being a good coach."
Ali didnt go to prison..but if Nolan believes it and it makes him a better coach...-God bless him then.

He's back... and he's hornier than ever!
B-)
lol..STOP!!

Just a quick note on Moulson. Right now he is shooting at .214% where as his average is .141% thus I would expect his scoring pace to slow and regress towards his average. Note that his season high sh% since he made it full time is .164%
For those of you who are math challenged like myself it means that currently Moulson is scoring on 21.4 out of 100 shots where as his average is 14.1 out of 100. Roughly speaking for a guy who takes a little over 200 shots a year this means he is on pace to score 10more goals than average. That seems unlikely but he could theoretically do it.
At his current pace based on shot percentage he would net 46.8goals on 218.6shots.
If you used his average shot percentage (.141) he would have 30.8goals and if you used his best (.164) 35.8goals. Both of which are very probable given his last 3 full seasons and even counting the lockout shortened season from last year.
Edit: Note that if you used his current GPGA he would get roughly 54.6goals this season which IMPO is not plausible.
dont mean to get too picky.....but its not .214% or .141%---its 21.4% or 14.1%

but firing him now would prevent him from making any more decisionsPaul Hamilton on WGR right now stating that firing Regier now would be a clown move.
I agree.
IMHO, The time to fire him was when Terry took over or when Lindy was fired. Firing now would make Pegula look foolish. The man has an ego, he's not goin to expose himself like that.
I don't really want Darcy here, but he's not getting fired now.

If people are unwilling to pay an additional 8 dollars a month in taxes for improvement in public school athletic facilities, I seriously doubt they'd want to pay x amount to keep a football team in their city. This isn't making reference to any city/school system in western New York. However, things like this do happen nation wide.
would be idiotic for people to pay any amt in taxes to subsidize billionaires in a multi-billion dollar sport

The pluralization of regard. "...in regards to.." Its singular--In regard to.
But give my regards to broadway.

Being no hockey expert...could any of you experts explain to me how so many so called 'offensive' forwards on the sabres who get so much ice time over so many games can score so few goals??--I mean even if you lobbed the puck in the general direction of the net a few will bounce by the goalie over time.So to try and score goals and have only 4 or 6 or 8 at this time of the year being full time players making millions....-I think james patrick could go out there at his age and score 7 or 8 goals over 70 games if he played enough. Lindy could probbly score 3-4.

2 great wcoast wins...still trying to figure out how we won that game yesterday since we spent the entire 2nd and 3rd periods in our own end.
-
regard....not regards....unless you are giving your regards to broadway
-
People focus too much on Buffalo's size. I think the main problem is lack of real talent/scoring ability. Briere was our best player--and still would be at least our 2nd or 3rd best at his advancing age.
