North Buffalo

Agreed, if I had to pay for health insurance, meds... my protected union pension id go broke fast in a slaughterhouse like Texas. Sorry, Ill take the cold.

My older brother's wife has a place on Canandaigua and town is too busy in the summer but early fall is beautiful... been by a lot of the finger lakes and they are wonderful but upper Lake George and upper Lake Champlain are awesome without the crowds... hard to pick one... havent spent a lot of time near Ontario, so no insight... I spent my summers as a kid and young adult on The Georgian Bay near Bobby Orr's hometown of Parry Sound... 30k islands up there and water clean enough to see down 40ft... so for me nothing compares...

CB Nice shot, goes to the net... little slow in his skating but strong stride... strong on the puck... bet if learns to pick it up a bit will be a good pick... dont see the hate but kid is tough.

That was a weird game... was there, it was brr cold... O'Reilly ding one off the cross bar that went so high everyone lost track of it and landed in front of the net... fun game.. I am rooting probably for Rangers as I am now local but really dont care except to watch good hockey.

Here is a short list https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/nhls-top-12-ufas-of-2024-latest-rumours-reports/ another: https://thehockeywriters.com/2024-nhl-free-agents/

I know Carolina has quite a few forward plus Chatfield and one other D. I'd be interested in seeing a list on who is available this summer and if any guys fit the Sabres needs?

When you can write in cursive... I'll work on my online grammar...

He took a while to figure it out... finally matured and has but for a while I get why they said it... wildly inconsistent until this year.

Just like that there is a page for us old farts... played beer league last night and nine holes the morning... ran some honey do errands and now I need a nap... gotta work tonight

I have my 20th Daschle staff reunion next month... gonna be nice to see who transitioned out and who is still working in the meat grinder.

Me too in August ....

Johnson was a rookie... needs a few pounds... good outlet passer and skater... point shot meh and in corners he needs to be harder... he will learn and like what I saw but he got screwed gtfoh... Bryson was better and yes it takes a few years to develop...

Back to show me... Find a scorer with some guts... push the rest of these pansies... guess Ollie left because he realized he could no long float... Skinner will be in the press box.

I gave up toward the end... never enough scoring consistently

I agree but Isle playing hard lately and gotta see how Anderson does... could be with a big if hence why I left them off.

Only 3 series where gotta think one team will dominate... the rest are too close to call... Rangers, Fla and probably Dallas after that who knows

I am less concerned with losing maybe 5-7 lbs just want to trim up belly fat... trying the bike once a week, take my son swimming, play hockey at least once a week

And when they did halfway the won... tells you something about their arrogance and work ethic...

I too wish him the best but as it was pointed out they kept too many guys around late in training camp and didnt solidify roster til earlier in the season guaranteed a slow start... goalie situation and play hurt too and then injuries made it a perfect storm that neither DG who was still into developing guys and team lost the importance of winning til it was too late and too tough.

It is a start agreed... though if coach cant get thru itll be was rinse and repeat

Wish there is a clear answer... harder coach could implode these softies... then that is on the GM to find the right type of players... If they dont add a few and a coach who will hold their feet to the fire then buh bye KA... not saying itll change anything could make drought longer but I want more guys who work... let Skinner go.

Golfing day..

Little bit... Chad and Colin are good friends best men in each others weddings... long story but very cool show.

Part of the reason the subject came to mind...

Just got to watch my cousin Chad/lazlo Bane open for Colin Hay at Patchogue Theatre
