Kane !

Unfortunately Ennis is past his best before date

Does Lauren Hill have man hands ? Cripes

6 shots on net. YAWN.

There's no reason we shouldn't lose to this team :blink:

Thanks A Simonuckian digit

What # is Smith ?

I picture Samson with 2 or 3 alarm clocks lined up on his nightside. Time for some redemption. I can't wait to see that new kid Clarence Jackson Smith and hope he has a great game. All 4 minutes of it on our 4th line which is prolly where he'd shake out anyways. As always I look forward to Magic Eichs exploits and pine for the day when he can dance in the playoffs. GO SABRES !

Thanks LTS. Whether I agree with your assessment or not it doesn't matter. What I see of you on sabrespace and your standards actually remind me a lot of my Dad growing up. He was my coach for a large part of my minor hockey ' career ' and he was always hardest on me but looking back I'd have it no other way. A good part of who I became as a person came from those lessons on and off the ice

:thumbsup:

Snowboarding is something I want to try but just haven't yet. Not sure why. My son does and loves it.

Toronto Detroit was a barnburner. Toronto never stops attacking. Fun to watch. Should be a good one Monday.

I'm right handed I shoot left in hockey but swing right in golf and baseball. Its just what felt natural so naturally I stuck with it.

Honestly its a legitimate question. Do you treat the star the same as a near star ? Thats all I'm asking. Is Eichel held out of an important game because he's late for a team stretch ? Because to me thats ridonculas but many on the board are saying there are no exceptions. In my opinion if we were in a playoff hunt and he is held out heads should roll. The coach should never handicap his own team. Even though the player is ultimately responsible other forms of punishment should and could be available. If this team was serious about winning.

If Dan were fired 20-25 games in it means we were dreadfully bad and at that point we are playing catchup for the remainder of the season. Not how I envision a successful campaign. The seasons a writeoff before it even gets started.

I love you too man. Honestly I'm curious. Maybe by 2019 DD won't be in Buffalo so maybe there will be a new set of rules but...as the rule stands now there can't be any backsliding. According to DD and GMTM.

lol

Swamp you and I both know a rules a rule. Its black and white. Etched in stone. We can't have room to wiggle because that goes against the culture we're tryin to grow. A fourth liner and a star need to feel the punishment equally so we'll make it a game suspension. Heck what would people think if we treated people differently ? As individuals ? As adults ? So it is the playoffs. Do they make up a new set of rules ? Do they suspend the rules ? Do guys not sleep in ? Just curious. I can't wait to see how its handled if and when it happens.

O.K. i'll say it again. I said it upthread and nobody ( not you nobody ) thought it worthy of an answer. Its game 7 of the finals against Calgary 2019. Morning yoga Eichel ( our star and front runner for the Conn Smythe ) sleeps in and is 15 minutes late. Because GMTM and double D thought it wise to etch the rules in stone ( black and white ) instead of leaving wiggle room ( grey ) they have no choice but to sit our star ( Eichel ) for the game. They've painted themselves into a corner. What say you ? Its their rule not mine I'm just offering an example of where this can go off the rails for the hardasses like ahem, ( sorry guys ) LTS and Pi . Thoughts ?

Was Terry involved ? ;)

O.K. so whats CJs given name ? Haven't seen anything other than CJ which bugs me wether its BJ or DB or OJ for that matter. If ma n pa called you Cody or Clarence or Calypso go with that please but we are not growing a culture of guys late to yoga or guys that go by CJ or BJ or O friggin J. Gawd forbid GMTM drafts anyone named Tad or Buffy and I'm not lumpin the new kid in with them but pulease CJ give us your blue collar workin man hands name.

Dog ate their homework ?

Anyone see the attempted hit by young tchachk on Drew Doughty last night? He jumped at least a foot into the air and turned his back to the hit ( a la Risto ) and almost decapitated Doughty. Doughty saw him last second and fell backwards to the ice to slide under the hit and avoid certain injury. Young Tchachk is a real piece of work.

Management and coaches don't like grey. They want black and white. So stanley cup finals 2019 Jack Eichel sleeps in for stretches the morning of game 7 against the Flames. The coach has no choice and no wiggle room to devise another form of punishment rather than sitting his star player in a game 7 because they preferred to make their rule book on tardiness etched in stone. There would be blood in the streets of Buffalo and heads would roll. And it would serve them right. Treat these guys like adults and they'll act like adults.

Continually. Noticed that too. When I played beer league one of the worst places to end up was on the floor of the players bench. It was a nasty nasty mess.
