Eleven

Tried to get over on my kid sister one night at Stuffed Mushroom. Denied.

"I'm sorry you feel that way."

For those who have not seen and/or do not know about this absolutely excellent short documentary about the process of his defection:

About time!

Because otherwise Adams might have used the time to make a phone call to another GM or something crazy like that.

Apparently Adams and Forton are speaking with media, from HIghmark, at 11am.

Wow, those eighteen months or so that I missed really brought in some quality posters.

I'm sitting with Josh Byrne's sister-in-law right now. She's a little concerned about what this means for Josh's brother Taylor.

I expect (or at least hope) the next CBA will severely restrict NMCs, but until then, I agree with your last two sentences. However, Philly can't possibly have a great rep either. The Flyers have been scraping the barrel for coaches and haven't made the playoffs for years now. And a cushy condo downtown there costs what, 2.5x what it costs in Buffalo?

Thank you, because I can't log in to The A right now for some reason and wanted the substance of Fairburn's ideas.

Oh, that's kind. But I've been back since winter, which ended in late May this year.

I don't know what this means.

What does Philadelphia have that Buffalo doesn't? Palm trees? Low taxes? Low-cost housing? (Wait, that one's us.) Hmm...must be a difference between GMs.

I don't think he'll sign here for only five years.

Trade this pick. It doesn't have to be for a defenseman (although that is preferable). But trade it. The Sabres don't need roster help for 2029.
