I try to remind people as often as I can, you don’t need to be smart to become rich. Usually you have to be a ruthless conniving evil SOB, Terry just seemed to be the beneficiary of owning land that had natural resources and leveraged that into $$$. Not because he was shrewd but because the industry was just handing out millions to people.

Yeah. This is embarrassing and shines a light on what Terry is really concerned about. Perception. Not reality.

Paul Hamilton just confirmed the 2nd round pick wasn’t traded exclusively for JBD. Dennis Gilbert was the piece included for JBD. Take it for what it’s worth.

Yeah I’ve been thinking about this. Is JBD too small for Kevyn's narrow minded view on hockey players. He’s shifted from all offense to all giants. I mean whatever. My biggest problem is that most of the D aren’t overly physical. Did he forget that part of the equation?

Kidnappers. That’s what it would take.

I forget not everyone is hard wired into the interwebs like myself. I thought this info was essentially fact that everyone was aware of.

And I think 75% of Sabres fans will hate it

What’s a poison pill for a team with $20 mill in cap space?

Free agency hasn’t started. Not to mention, the org had no RHD depth. They barely had enough to field a roster. Having 2 of your top 3 D play out of position out of necessity was not working.

Free agency hasn’t even started

I’m aware of the booger sugar culture in hockey. It’s prevalent. There are probably a bunch of guys on the team that partake. Young good looking millionaire athletes are going to find an outlet. Just weed out the guys with a problem (maybe even get them help), and build a team.

A coworker of mine just asked if I saw how miserable this kid was when he was drafted. I hate the behavior that the internet fosters. People make faces. You can’t tell what the player is thinking or feeling. Please STFU. He also mentioned that Peterka was traded because of substance abuse issues. What ***** up part of the internet propagates this nonsense.

Hmmmm…

You hear that baritone voice. I’m sold. Great to hear some more insight. Just wish we had 5 more players like him. They need this kind of player now. He’s not the solution.

Ok I’m in love

I mean I’m all for it except he might allow a goal every time he’s on the ice. His talent is his violence. I don’t think the rest of his game is anywhere near where it needs to be. Otherwise, he’s a first round pick.

Agreed. Was it defense or goaltending? Not a loaded question. I know the analytics are out there but I’ve seen numbers indicating a goalie upgrade is necessary.

5 years from now

Hopefully you don’t get any stains on it

Imma just leave this here

Having the GMs interview the players immediately after drafting them? About as cringe as I can imagine.

As he should be. The need to change the culture of the Romper Room and bring in some red assess to play against. Doan and Kesselring are a great start. Now move out Quinn and Samuelsson to complete the exodus of guys who don’t know what to do when their friend is laying prone on the ice.

Tage Tuch and Kulich will score more than 100 goals next season

This is important

You’d think with your handle being a legendary fictitious pugilist, you’d have a little more respect for Doan and to a lesser extent Kesserling’s willingness to throw hands.
