Eleven

And now? I love you, man, but no. This team has a lot of "quit," and it's nothing to do with Tuch or Dahlin. Let's just say I'm aching for NJ to go out in the first round even though I'll be rooting for my guy.

There are at least three problems with that lineup.

They both do, too early and too often.

He sidelines as an usher at the AMC on Maple Road.

You're also some weird priest of the occult who destroys civilizations so maybe that takes time to cultivate.

This guy's watching movies at 2pm on a Friday instead of tracking Sabres news.

Debbie...

OMIGOSH THIS IS AWESOME. Can he start tonight? Sunday?

Places of public accommodation built before 1990 (I think) are exempted from the ADA for the most part. The man posing with the owner of the wheelchair was the head of security and not the owner, from what I understand. Accessibility remains a major issue with older buildings. I've helped wheelchair-bound people up and down stairs before and I'll bet you have too. It stinks but retrofitting a building is expensive, and I'm not sure a chair lift would work here, where the staircase turns a corner.

I don't think Miller's teams would have been "above average" without Miller. Ruff's system in those years relied upon Miller being Miller. Without that, defensemen wouldn't have been able to pinch as they did, and the neutral zone game would have been much more defensive, just for examples. I don't think the Sabres rode Miller to the semifinals in 06 and 07 the way they did with Hasek in 98 and 99 (including the finals that year), but I also think there is no way they could have played the same freewheeling style in 06 and 07 in front of an average goaltender. Miller was great. His only sin is that he wasn't the greatest NHL goalie of all time (Hasek). This team's identity used to be great goaltending, and that goes back even before Hasek.

I was around for that. Miller was a great goalie. The people here calling him average were ridiculous.

@PASabreFan always had a thing for the name "Kale."

This is puerile.

I can't disagree with anything here. 23 isn't 18, and Carson Briere is only known because of Danny. And @Randall Flagg aptly points out that there is MUCH worse (as bad as that is) on the Internet every day. For the people (not necessarily on this forum) screaming for jail time: you wouldn't be screaming if it was your kid or even your wheelchair. It's destruction of property at most. For the people (again not necessarily on this forum) arguing to "give the kid a break," you wouldn't be arguing that if he looked differently or wasn't the son of someone quasi-public. The entire publicity surrounding this is just another episode of voyeurism and possibly calumny. Sports websites aren't sports websites anymore. They're about who did what off the field, who said what about whom on twitter, and who's driving what car. We've become European that way, and it sux. And it's not limited to sports: On Monday, I had to read four articles to finally figure out what movie won Best Picture, because the first three were about who was with whom and what they were wearing and what they said. Enough. I want to know whether Danny Briere is a good GM, not whether his kid is a screw-up. I want to know about which team Aaron Rodgers is going to play for, and not about his darkness retreat or what he said about Ian Rappaport yesterday morning. I want to know which film won Best Picture and not who was on Jennifer Aniston's arm or what Tom Cruise had to drink. I want to know what Congress is doing and not which representative has the loudest mouth on Twitter. This little tempest-in-a-teapot is so emblematic of a much bigger problem with what information we consume (and, in turn, what information we are told to consume).

Frazier's defenses can win all the regular seasons he wants. We need good playoff defenses now, and he isn't it.

Because the Sabres are in serious competition in spite of, and not because of, goaltending.

I'm so sorry, man. I hope it's not too serious. Yes, patients (and their advocates) here have to fight and fight hard.

He's not all over the hockey news for being a fringe player at a AA program in Erie. Look at the title of the post, just for example. And there are a lot of people here criticizing parenting without knowing a thing about it.

I'll stop. For now.

Whopper whopper bourbon whopper Weave likes whisky in his whopper He thinks it's a burger popper He eats it his wayyyyyyyy

OK. 1. This video has been an Internet spectacle for a bit--at least eight hours before posted here. 2. We're watching someone at his worst. Yes, he's being an *****. No, it doesn't need to be the subject of public discussion just because his dad was semi-famous once. 3. It doesn't reflect on Briere's parenting skills anyway. IIRC, the son is from a broken marriage with a MOTHER, not father, to blame. 4. (For humor): what do you expect when you name your kids Caelen, Carson, Cameron, and Caiden? Just the first and last of those are too confusing.

Whopper whopper stop and whopper Drop your stuff and eat a whopper you can stop drop and roll, and Whopper all dayyyyyyy You're with P A, so have it your way...

I'm having fun coming up with my own versions. Unspeakable Whopper, Drinkable Whopper, etc.

Ray: "There's nothing you can do there in the goaltender's situation." Me: "Did he lose his stick?"

There are people here who believe that this is not important, and that face-off % is a minor statistic. I am not one of those people.
