  1. His hit started it but he’s gotta grab someone there. All your teammates did, not doing so shows that you aren’t in it with them. I will sheepishly admit that I may subconsciously have an anti-euro bias. The beard thing is probably the same. If dude could grow one like Tuch, I’d probably like him more. Stupid, yes. It’s 52 years of my brain subconsciously interpreting beard=man.
  2. I didn’t say who was a better player. Just who I prefer.
  3. I get why you are here mentally, I was there for 3 months from the start of 2024. I’m coming around. As a parent, I feel for these guys. I do think they are trying and want to win. They just don’t have all the answers yet. As far as the fight being staged, did Dahlin purposefully take out the Caps player at the end of regulation to instigate the scrum? I highly doubt it.
  4. I like Power more than Dahlin.
  5. I think part of the reason everyone mentions Benson’s tenacity is that so few Sabres posses this quality. He stands out. I believe most scouts had Benson as a top 5 talent in the draft but the Neanderthal’s that run NHL teams still place importance on size. It’s the size of the fight in the dog not the size of the dog…yada yada. Guys with his talent should be 1st line players. Nothing I’ve seen says he can’t be that. As far as UPL goes, his path to #1 goalie was not linear. Much like a lot of goalies. He faced injuries, illness, COVID shut down, limited success in the AHL but inevitably he showed up when most goalies do, their mid 20’s. Giving him a letter would almost be unprecedented, making him the Captain is straight up lunacy.
  6. There are no upsets in hockey Let’s just happy they participated. I only wish they figured out this 80 games ago.
  7. If I’m Alex I’m telling him to stay as far away from Buffalo as he can. Is there a dude who looks less happy to be a Sabre?
  8. I mean I’m guessing he’s made $20-30 mill from playing and coaching. Everyone loves money but it’s not like he needs it.
  9. I’m looking forward to his new contract announcement. I’ll be the first to post it with some expletives in the OP. I guess this is what fans do but I see no indication he’s leaving Carolina.
  10. I wonder if anyone has proposed this trade somewhere in this forum very recently
  11. Or at least make it a leafs game so they can show those fans how much they are appreciated.
  12. Kulich has primarily played wing in Rochester
  13. Like I said, he’s a good offensive defenseman. If I can find some other metrics, I’ll post them.
  14. My lord yes. Also in panties moistened. Including mine.
  15. A new coach isn’t going to turn him into Chris Pronger. He’s an offensive dman. A very good one at that. The issue is that’s all the Sabres have. Offensive defenseman, minus Muel who is never healthy. They need someone else to be their Pronger.
  16. I can see the guys you listed along with some others buying into a physical game but they need someone to lead it. On the front end and backend. I know it’s not your preference but give me 3 or 4 guys that deck people and the Billy’s will buy in.
  17. Nah draft Ladd and send 15 guys in crossing routes. 🤣
