Trade: Lehner and Legwand to Buffalo
PromoTheRobot replied to Mustache of God's topic in The Aud Club
GMTM is a robot and his circuits are falling. Just listen to his presser. -
Trade: Lehner and Legwand to Buffalo
PromoTheRobot replied to Mustache of God's topic in The Aud Club
Fans are always pessimistic. This trade ruins draft night for me. -
That's the other thing. Why pay $500MM when teams sell for half that?
-
Canes won't be moved. They do fine in NC. Panthers are inevitable. Coyotes are possible but I think the NHL wants to stay in Phoenix any way they can.

Shake up in the office PAT LaFONTAINE RESIGNS

I'm curious why. -
How many words does GMTM say before Jack Eichel
PromoTheRobot replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
"Eich" then he drops the mic. -

Vegas odds say Sabres least likely to win the cup
PromoTheRobot replied to PromoTheRobot's topic in The Aud Club
Don't worry, I thought it was misleading as well as soon as I posted it. -
Time to put a hundred on the Sabres to win it all. http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nhl-puck-daddy/chicago-blackhawks-the-early-favorite-for-2016-stanley-cup-162952211.html

Hey, I finished 10th, 94th percentile! I got Chicago winning and every pick in the West correct, but only 3 of 7 in the East.

58 and rain. Summer in NH

I think Utica is a tremendous minor hockey market and I wonder if the Comets go west if the ECHL could be in their future? The E needs more Northeastern teams to ease travel costs for their recent AHL converts.

How much of a carrot is playing for Roy again in Colorado? Did Grigs like him as a coach?
-
Olbermann did a monologue about her. The point everyone seems to miss is she doesn't live in Glendale. She lives in Phoenix. So she's squawking about the lease but her taxes aren't paying for the apparently lopsided deal Glendale signed off on.
-
Portland would be nice, although if Seattle winds up with an NHL team, Portland is the natural landing spot for their AHL affiliate. How about a Flames affiliate in Saskatoon or Regina? The truth is any AHL city that's more than a few hours by car from their parent team has a target on it.
-
If that's Siberia, I'll sign up.
-
True, but how long before the Canucks move that franchise west? The only reason they are even in Utica is the NHL c#ckblocked them from Seattle.
-
This is where keeping Grigo up his rookie year is backfiring.
-
Comets scored with 14 seconds to go but it was too little, too late. Monarchs win 2-1 and Manchester hoists the cup in Utica.
-
Yes. In the end, I'm just there for the beer and the yelling. I like hockey and I can watch ECHL just fine. In fact I look forward to seeing the Elmira Jackals. The Rochester Americans almost never played Manchester the last 14 years. This way I get to see some Sabres prospects.
-
The Manchester Monarchs mopped the Utica Auditorium ice with the Comets 6-2 last night to take a 3-1 series lead in the AHL finals. This is the last AHL season in NH for the Kings farm team so this is a nice going away gift for the fans, considering this team made it past the first round only once in 14 prior seasons. LA swaps their ECHL team to Manchester next season. Sadly the AHL insists on the 2-3-2 playoff format even though the two cities are just a 5 hour bus ride apart. So if Manchester wins tonight Monarchs fans won't get to see it on home ice. If it does work out that way at least I can say I was at the first Monarchs game and the last.
-
Maybe they are fired up by media types (Tony Kornheiser on PTI for one) who declared the series over after Game 1? The Hawks have been the presumed superior team by everyone, including me.
-
I was going to say that about Crawford too. The last two goals were on him. Goal #2 he didn't close the post off with his pad. Goal #3 he over-committed to the skater with the puck and took himself out of position for the skater you HAVE TO ASSUME is in the slot! That's Goalie 101. You don't play the puck so much as play what's coming. Goalies are always reading the play and at least have a sense where the other guys are.

Evander Kane - How good do you expect him to be?
PromoTheRobot replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
This may seem counterintuitive but ego is a good thing for star performers. You have to believe you can be the best. -
Would have been very smart if the Sabres asked the Canalside concert folks to make sure to book an 18-24 friendly act that date, as opposed to, say, a KC and the Sunshine band tribute act.
