Haha. Petey and Rivets were talking the other day about how much ass and legs Z had. Too funny.

How much beef do you want on a 5’9” frame! We don’t need him looking like cee lo green.

GMs are paying early with hopes of paying less in the long term. It’s a risk but I’m certain they are using analytics to evaluate who is really performing and who is showing out for a contract year. They are going to miss some. Maybe one of the Sabres young core doesn’t live up to the contract. The bet is the rest of the early payouts will payoff with superstars making significantly less than their peers allowing GMs to sign more good players.

I started the thread based on Andrew Peters assertion. Not sure if Bulldog would be Petey’s source but weirder things have happened.

Bryson looked the part. Maybe he can put together something his next team will get excited about.

Does being dished mean getting his face smashed during a fight? I honestly don’t know. Saw Cuzzy postgame in the locker room as well as him blocking shots. He’s turning into a man. It hasn’t been at the pace we would have liked and getting his marbles knocked loose didn’t help but his actions and physique are impressive. Kid is putting in the work. He’s too talented for it to not work out on some level.

Thanks for listening and sharing.

Yeah I think him knowing them won’t exactly help

Can we close this topic? Season is done.

You mean here? What you hear from here? People report on every game in the Amerks thread and occasionally, when one Amerks fan hasn’t had his motivation completely zapped by cannabis, we even start game day threads.

Hear me out here, maybe if a league doesn’t want its players acting like jackasses (both parties involved), actually penalize players. The wrist slapping that takes place in the name of “playing the right way” “shoulda kept his head up” “don’t put yourself in those situations” has lead to this. They want the players to police themselves but there is no real on ice retribution. Maybe a tussle with the opponents similar style player. (That’s another unwritten gem) Don’t go after a skill guy if you are a 300 PIM guy or whatever today’s equivalent is. Don’t go after a guy if he’s 6inches shorter and 50 lbs lighter. They took away the teeth of the “hockey police” but don’t call penalties the way they should. What’s that leave you with? An unpoliced league where guys who understand the nuances (see that ass ***** Marchand) go unchecked doing whatever they please on the ice. If the league would just pick a lane. Either a) call penalties that are actually penalties (the Greenway incident just a snapshot of the lunacy) b) let the players actually actually handle it themselves. I’d love to see someone break their stick over Marchand’s beak with him writhing on the ice. Otherwise, this is what you get. Stupidity.

I don’t think there is a single chance Michael Peca coaches for the Buffalo Sabres. Mostly because it’s a good idea but also because he’s seen the tire fire up close and personal. He knows they don’t have the right players here to win.

Nope. It’s the players…who suck.

Not gonna happen

How many 1st OA picks have spent two seasons in the AHL before playing in the national?

Yikes. Are we unloading 21 & 28 for career minor leaguers?

This is not surprising

With a whole 60k in Salary cap space, I’m struggling to see how they fit the $5 mill under the cap but maybe they have another Andres Bjork they can add us.

I’d take offers for those two as well. No one is above this.

When’s that cut off? 30?

I agree on Power. I’m not sure I’m there with Dahlin. He’s pretty much a finished product. A high risk high reward offensive player that struggles with the basic concepts of defense.

I’d ***** a billionaire. Preferably a woman but a Billy is a billy.

Seems like a way to lose a lot of money

I don’t see any end in sight. I’d be for it, it can’t get any worse.
