7+6=13

I recognize Pegula has failed. I just don't agree totally on the why. To me this is my disagreement with most here. A conversation can't be had because the the nonsense starts, IMO. Just because I don't believe someone that believes the proof of meddling is, "he's literally in the meetings" or anything to that effect - doesn't mean I'm a shill, ball washing or waiting for Terry to buy me a yacht. I don't believe Terry is making player decisions. I don't think he's telling GM's to draft certain players. I also don't think he's cheap. He has a significant history of spending, until very recently. I don't know why and neither do any of you. Maybe he's been talked into it by KA. Maybe he told KA he's not making enough and spending to spend isn't something he wants to do.

The organization created obstacles that don't exist?

I 100% agree. I know this sucks but making stuff up, doesn't make anyone right. I'll say something positive about a loss and this place goes crazy. Then someone will say Pegula should sell the team, even if they leave Buffalo. They'll get 20 thumbs up. Ok, that's not crazy, saying UPL played well is. I loved your line "we certainly try to weave evidence". Masterfully said.

Which prospect does he feel this way about? Savoie?

Sorry, it's rough, but that guy cracks me up.

Go to YouTube and search; Catfish Cooley pickled pigs feet. Proceed with caution, but it's one of the funniest things I've ever witnessed.

I mean, we came close to winning that game. Seconds close. Did I say we're ready to win the cup?

I just thought it was impressive we went up on them again and it showed something to me. Then it happened again. I just can't ignore that there it's a positive thing they were winning late, again.

For us, it had the feeling of, things are just happening too fast and caused the mishap. I understand what you're saying, we just all felt bull rushed.

I agree it's mental and physical. In the end there was definitely physical dominance happening.

Painful loss. I hope this causes them to come together like no other time - because I think this kind of loss has the power to just as easily do the opposite. They needed this win and if it's torture for us, it has to be unimaginable for them.

What happened in the OT was almost entirely, not mental. IMO they aren't fragile. They played one of the best teams and had them. To me they got overwhelmed physically at the end.

Also proud of how Byram is conducting himself in his post interview.

Marty looks like he's been crying.

Zucker is acting like a true professional right now in his interview.

To me, that wasn't mental. Or at least not all of it.

Which players have been here for each of those coaches?

That was rough. I saw the team skating off the ice and felt awful for them.

It's the exact reaction we had.

That's a sound strategy and feels like that works well for you. I'm just trying to watch these young players develop. With how young we are, there's plenty to watch. Some good and some bad but, IMO, there's enough to like in that regard. I just can't let it go when I say something positive and the mob becomes unglued by it. I shouldn't start it, so I think you're right. I appreciate the thoughtful reply.

I agree, I came in sarcastic heavy in this thread. You said I did, I agreed. The issue is, if you called me out for being sarcastic, when I was met with it, and you only told me about it. That's the path I have issue with. However as you said, everyone should say what they want. Of course within the SS guidelines that the mods should enforce. Did you have an issue with the paths from other posters, in the other thread?

Think you can get someone to add.... even if the team leaves Buffalo?

I know, right. He should be trading our prospects for players with no trade clauses to the Sabres and trying to sign free agents that won't sign in Buffalo. I mean, you're so right. You should probably repeat your post over and over. I'm surprised no one has brought this up, until right now. I mean you can't make it up. It's literally the same exact posts in different thread titles.

I wish you well with that and hope you'll forgive my pessimism. Maybe you can find the strength to go back up thread and address those that insulted me and not the post..

I'm glad you posted this because, while silly, it is an example of the hypocrisy. Swamp could have very easily, said 7+6 hasn't engaged Pimlach in this thread and he posts a gif of a door slamming in someone's face. I'm going to call Pimlach out. That's not nice, isn't criticizing a post and is probably why he's saying he knows people that don't want to come to SS. But he doesn't, so his critique of me is hypocritical and rejected.
