  1. Yes best to deal with college kids, studious ones... like math and science kids. And then you charge enough so they leave after a few years.
  2. Sarcasm... how many Swedes on each team... no brainer.
  3. He needs to move puck faster in D zone and put on the tape of breaking forwards. Seems confused on breakouts. Im ok with trading if Sabres can find a center and a young puck moving D a la Montour. But would rather move Bogo... Hoping Borgen and Pilut step up and Laaksonen goes to Amerks
  4. They skated hard, unlucky bounce, incompetent D, Scandella cough, cough.... nice shot Nils.. need to move puck faster... puck on tape... puck on tape... good effort... common get rid of scandella and risto... Risto slow puck decisions kill me.... yo get yor head up an move the fin biscuit.
  5. Dont care about Sabres position hope Sabres sendleaf fans into a deep depression.
  6. Thinking about back end some more... I'd rather keep McCabe and Risto together... liking Montour and Dhalin together. Hope Borgen can step up next year with Pilut
  7. With any luck JBotts can draft well this year and some lottery help plus GAs goals Sabres should take another step. Not sure i want Risto gone just in a lesser role. Love Donakoi idea and Miller second line center agree is a big if but combined with a further developing Mitts and would be a better balanced 3 lines
  8. Sabres need another forward puck carrier besides Jack. At this rate they may luck into one in the draft.
  9. Housley is a young coach at the NHL level and it may take time for him as well as the team to take the next step. Question for me is can the Sabres stand to go thru the growing pains or will Phil need to bounce around a few times til he gets it, meaning not with the Sabres
  10. Hoping St Louis loses and Rangers win
  11. At least my beer league team won its championship 5-2
  12. JBotts is not the problem. I do think Phil is. A more experience coach could have handled the rumored ROR issues and probably the Kane issues. Jack wanted captaincy but wasnt ready and a more experienced coach could have put him in his place... still think Sabres need a new coach, young guys need a proven strong leader.
  13. Laaksonen maybe or pilut
  14. I know Al Gore, worked for Al Gore... you sir are no Al Gore ?
  15. If you watched Toronto v Tampa the other night, Tampa came out hitting everything with a leaf logo, slowed them down, made their passing off target. Got a couple weird goals and that was the game. Super intense but sent Toronto a message. Gotta have both skill and toughness. Tavares was only guy who showed he could handle it in the first. Marner and Matthews looked lost.
  16. Sabrs have a reasonable chance of falling to fifth last Anaheim 6 back and Vancover within 4 points, doubt Jersey catches Sabres.
  17. man could go for some walleye fillets right about now!
  18. He takes alot of hits, dont seem to phase him.
  19. My Dad is as you describe... he was EOD Frogman.. unless he is really cagey... and he may be, I am not sure he did anything really extraordinary... he told me he was one of the first to train to disarm the first carrier based nuclear weapons... and his team pulled an unexploded Japanese Torpedo out of Pearl post WWII, but that is about it... cleared bikini atolls of unexploded ordinance because they had become hazards to shipping lanes... about it... doesn't like to talk much about it, did his job and moved on.
  20. Should have been clearer... This, having seen contractors make ridiculous cash for things in the civilian world that cost much less both with a military or medical tag on it has jaded me. Not the folks that serve... Know many and to a person they all complain about the cost of such things. Also post military health care is pathetic... part of the problem is pay does not equal that of the civilian world so recruiting nurses, techs etc is a problem in trying to get better people. At least that is my experience.
  21. My forteen year old took up guitar this year after getng bored with piano and trumpet. Really has taken to it and it seems to help him when he gets down on himself. Nothing like writing verse, Im not a very good guitarist mch better keyboardist... but yeh music helps calm my soul. TY enjoyed your work.
