Eleven

Are you taking the bet? $25 (I'm poorer now than I used to be) to a charity, etc.; the problem is that we probably can't settle up until about 2036.

I'll bet that he is not a Sabres regular. Ever.

Second-rate.

You can look it up. I hated that trade. You can look up the Hall trade. I hated that trade. Do NOT trade established NHL players for anything less than a first-round pick. EVER. If their contracts are expiring, let the rest of the league fight. Let them know that you're not the patsy at the poker table. This should be Axiomatic for NHL GMs. Before you FITE me (I am learning the Internet lingo): Gaustad. Great example of holding on for the right offer. There is better value in not being a patsy than there is in a third round pick.

There's only one game tonight AGAIN?! This league is so committed to being second-rate.

And of course Frost has succeeded in separating his wife from the rest of her family, as well. The dude has some serious Svengali powers and is possibly the most evil person in North America. Rielly. He can't spell his own name correctly.

"Well, then we should call you T-Bone."

It led Alice into all kinds of trouble, so some skepticism is warranted.

So in the series absolutely no one on the planet is watching, it's tied 0-0 near the end of the first and I'm going to bed because I don't care either.

Pull it together, man.

He's in BC so probably also watching SN, and TNT isn't that different, frankly.

Ladies and gentlemen, this is still the best avatar in SabreSpace history.

These stupid schedules...like it takes 3 days to fly from Ft. Lauderdale to Toronto...ok I have a feeling that Kallgren will be available for the Marlies starting with game 2.

He looked so gassed in the third. I was really surprised by that. He's not that old.

I have a feeling that Kallgren will be available for the Marlies.

Ah Samson, I never stopped loving you.

Bennett just got too clever by a half. Had the game on his stick.

Snowman in May...

Recipe for the beef could be interesting. I have some lemon curd in the fridge; it's great with cream cheese on a cracker.

NJ is putting on a clinic on how to get the other team to take stupid penalties. Unfortunately, Carolina (wearing their stupid "Canes" sweaters) has 3 shorthanded goals, but still.

This part isn't me. This part is. They have more time and resources than I do, that's for sure.

I get you, and I don't think you're far off. But they have different and better information than we do.

We knew this without the post. You can grill in cold weather Chz! Also on the sloppy Joe:

He blew her a kiss. WIth five fingers. 5. She, of course, is giving him a single finger. 1. The Oilers' social media team grasped not only that Karen was being Karen, but also the number of fingers on each hand and the 5-1 score. Love it.

I've always waited 40 games for a QB. Edwards, Manuel, Taylor, Allen, before them, whatever. 2.5 seasons. But why not "take the word of talking head pundits, draftniks, and analytic geeks who can’t see beyond raw numbers"? They may have been wrong with Allen, but surely they have been right with others? I have a friend who was pushing for Allen in 2018, but that doesn't make him a draft expert (and believe me, this is the type of guy who thinks he is an expert in everything and actually is an expert in getting something right one percent of the time), should I trust him from now on? I mean, they know more than I do. And they do seem to be right more often than not (Mel Kiper notwithstanding.) They spend a year doing this stuff, and I spend about an hour and a half. So why are they unqualified?
