  1. i am boohooing no one. but i will never begrudge a person to hold onto as much money as possible - we are all keen to do so no matter how much we make. regardless, this is a hockey forum and would hate for us to go further down the political side of things.
  2. After last night's game, I suspect Quinn wished his injury wasn't fully healed....
  3. They are not paying less taxes than 'ordinary' people. They are paying a lower rate. But they are paying more actual taxes (money). Regarding Tavares - he has every right to be upset. He signed a contract based on current tax law - and the government not only changed the law (which they can do) - but then went retroactive. Dangerous precedent. Getting top tier players was already difficult for Canadian teams - this will make it even tougher...which I didn't think was possible. That said, the allure of playing for Toronto will never go away....
  4. krebs doesnt make 9 million a year. probably mostly answers your nonsensical inquiry
  5. This team will probably finish outside of the playoffs by double digit points 3 out of 4 years. Some players are playing better under DG. But the team, as a whole, is more the same. Coaches don't last long in the NHL. The 'team' is not responding to DG. Maybe some players...but not the 'team'. Time for a change.
  6. dont hate skinner - but i would rather him not be a sabre for reasons stated many times over. a veteran on a young team who floats and plays out of position on purpose is a bad influence.
  7. Sure looks like we are all set at 1 and 2 C...... Lord I hope this year is just a blip
  8. yup...with the current nhl point system, finding your way into OVT is so important. you can lose - but you have to get to OVT. compared to other playoff teams - too many regulation losses is going to probably haunt them.
  9. So let me get this straight. Moving KO, Mitts and EJ were done so they could start playing with pace. They had no problem playing with pace last year having Mitts and KO. KA adds EJ; this, EJ, Mitts and KO are not allowing the team to play with pace. I'm gonna surmise that either Chad D is full of crap, his source is full of crap, or they are both full of crap. I'm going with both.
  10. agreed. it is in the rules for every team to use. we would be more than happy with the sabres utilizing this...if they could actually get into the playoffs without their star players....well, get into the playoffs that is
  11. I would like to think at this level the pressure never goes away and the competitors on our favorite team embrace that. It is what I would like to think.
  12. The sabres played well and Detroit played well. Cannot both things be true at once? Point is, it's a waste of time telling people how they should assess a game unless they asked.
  13. Sabres played well and Detroit played poorly. Cannot both things be true at once?
  14. Dead on UPL deserved better. Red Wings were being purposely *****. Byram is no doubt the teams second best d man. (Still don't like trade in a vacuum). But he is way more NHL ready than OP. Upside, allows OP to play less and learn properly. Good game. Goals are fun.
