Eleven

Plain, boring, and with that ugly "bird got cut while in flight" wing thing that's been there forever. I know, I know, it's "classic." "Classic" doesn't mean that it looks good. It's horrible. The Leaves are coming up, too, now that they switched what used to be an awesome font on the back of their sweaters. Classic and good? Habs. Sabres whites (the normal ones). Bruins (***** I hate them). Red Wings ain't it.

Love those, as long as they're wearing the blue breezers. When it's straight yellow, it's horrible.

They might someday. As of today, we have the Kings (home and away), the Red Wings (same), and, of course, the Sabres reverse retros.

This has been coming for a while. Bally has overextended, from pinball to video games to gambling to resorts to TV. It's a conglomerate without a focused mission, and that never lasts long. The Disneys of the world will eat Bally for lunch. And ***** Sinclair. It's the Bruins of broadcasting.

Tonight's the night Thompson hits 50 goals. I'm calling it. FIFTEEN GOALS.

There is no way that a 2023 NCAA team is beating the 1983 NHL All Star team at the same ages they were when they were All-Stars. It's just too silly to argue.

I think he left a day and a half ago, and I'm sure he could have flown through China or Mexico or some other country that allows travel to the USSR right now.

Congress?

Ovechkin's father died.

Spend as much time as possible on SabreSpace. Very rewarding, even for the non-retired.

Umm...no. And there have been more recent goalies starting in their teens/very early 20s who have had success, too. Price being an example. When Levi is ready, he's ready, no matter his age or what leagues he's played in.

He was never the funniest or the most knowledgable, but he was incredibly kind and mild-mannered. And he really helped develop White. He was a big part of my mornings for a long time. Gonna miss him.

Nothing's being kept secret. We just don't know much yet. Here: https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2023-02-14/us-says-mystery-objects-likely-private-craft-not-tied-to-spying?srnd=premium&leadSource=uverify wall There's no need to engage in conspiracy theories at this time.

Nothing's been secret. The first one was Chinese and I'm imagining the others were drugs, just like the drone they caught trying to cross at Lewiston a couple of weeks ago. Usually, when I send drugs, I use balloons.

Drugs

I meant credible fans here on SS.

This just happened to UPL on Saturday. Did anyone credible call him a bust?

Yeah it was weird--appeared, attributed, disappeared, whatever, I removed it.

I think Anderson is mature enough to understand that he isn't being dumped unceremoniously for a shiny new toy. If he isn't, then the idea that he is here to lead youngsters is BS and he can go away anyway.

Point is, he can get there. He has the means.

They're also not going to keep him if there's no reason to, and I'm sure he knows that.

There are no commercial flights from the US and perhaps Canada to Russia. There may be from other NA countries. And Ovi can arrange for air travel that is inaccessible to you or me.

That's just cruel.

Expos dammit.

Anderson is disposable unless this team is making a playoff push, and I don't think it is.
