Which is why I get nervous when we discuss trading the farm or paying a fortune for a "can't-miss" goalie. They are too unpredictable. You can count the ones who were consistently elite for their careers on one hand.

Hey I never wanted him to go. I had hope that he would have liked Granato enough to stick around. But it was too late for that.

Sam someone.

Panthers do it again. 1-0.

I thought POHO LaFontaine hired Murray to be his GM? On November 13, 2013, LaFontaine was announced to be the new President of Hockey Operations for the Buffalo Sabres.

I have a hunch Ostland may get moved at some point. Not because he's going back to Sweden per se, but because the Sabres and Amerks look to be loaded with forwards. Out of sight, out of mind.

Talk about ignoring the positive to focus on a negative. Who cares if a dozen players had their best years playing under Granato, the guy can't coach defense!! It was always the plan to fix the scoring first, then work on defense, Granato only said this a hundred times. It's one of the reasons last year was still considered developmental, despite coming within 2 points of the playoffs.

He only came here to get his foot looked at. He fully intended to go back to the SHL, especially since he's going to play in the top league SHL. instead of their version of the AHL, which is where he played last season. The Sabres would have preferred he played in Rochester but are otherwise okay with the choice.

So you're saying there's a chance....

So the Calder Cup Final Four is set: Amerks (Sabres) Bears (Caps) Firebirds (Kraken) Admirals (Preds)

Mark Jankowski sighting in a Milwaukee jersey. They are a Preds affiliate. My niece lived there until recently. Had nothing but good things to say.

Nothing happening tonight other than the NBA and MLB. So I'm watching the rubber game of Milwaukee and Texas (Austin) on AHL TV. Nice crowd in Austin tonight. What a town to be young in.

It's because he's a little...

How some people can't value a player that scores 20+ goals is hard to comprehend. Maybe Olafsson can't do much else well than put the puck in the net, but he's putting pucks in nets.

Apparently Gallant can't.

You have a future in politics.

Panthers do it again. Tic tac toe.

They should have done that before the arena vote.

FYI the entire Marlies coaching staff was shown the door today, as well.

Entire staff sacked. https://www.ticketmaster.com/venue/161?attractionId=806693 Use code: SABSTM

Didn't the NHL do a World vs North America format once?

I don't agree. I'm kind of okay with offseason tournaments because there's time to recover from an injury. But mid-season? If it's not the Olympics, pass.

I couldn't see the Sabres doing what the Panthers are doing.

Koharski just spent all that time saying it was a good goal.
