I agree Rick but based on what Shamahan has done historically Keith gets 5 or less. I'm not sure what he actually gets but thats my guess. Backstrom has been out for 2-3 months from a similar hit and the aggressor in that case got 2 games. On a phone meeting with Shammy. Breaking news- Apparently the league wants a face to face now instead of a phone conversation so historically that means 6 or more.

The Sedin hit was a hockey play where contact to the head was secondary to the shoulder to the body. If anything it may have been a little late. He received a 2 minute minor penalty. The Keith hit to Sedin wasn't a hockey play it was retribution for the earlier hit. The puck was 15 feet about Sedin. He never had possession and as he looked up for the puck Keith drove his elbow into his head. The head was the primary target and at no time did Keith try to hit the body. Keith has a telephone meeting with Shamahan tomorrow at 11am western time which means 5 games or less. Sedin has no such meeting.

The lady with the hood and the 2 armless zombie slaves is straight out of the comic book series. This is an escape from reality not reality so don't ask for reality in a zombie series. Sorry. It don't exist. Again as they said last night on talking dead the new hooded character is straight out of the comic series and apparently she is one of the most popular characters. Staying true to the comics the series is based on doesn't make the series hokie.Imo.

Just watched the last episode and they're setting up season 3 quite nicely. On talking dead they admit they are introducing a new female character played by a black actress. She was the biggest teaser of the last episode season 2 when she appeared out of nowhere to save Andrea. She of the hood and the armless zombie slaves. Muhahahaha ! Can't wait for season 3. The fall seems so far away.

So like someone said up thread you can carry the virus from a scratch ect. but it won't actually show itself till you die then it re-animates you as a zombie. Makes sense.

The wife said shane was going to kill rick and I had a feeling this would go down like this with shane underestimating rick because of ricks quick thinking in the bar scene. Glad to see him done. Interesting factoid revealed about how zombies don't necessarily have to be bit to be infected and become Zombies. This changes everything. Next week should be epic.

Spezza has had a good season thanks in part to having Karlsson feeding him the puck.
-
I voted Karlsson. No explanation necessary. His play has been enough.

Ballard is out with a capcussion.

But they sure would be tasty. Grrrrr !!!

Welcome aboard. I'm going to be patient with Cody. From what I saw of him playing in a Vancouver uni he impressed me. Haven't seen much yet in a sabres uni but as he gets more comfortable with his role here I'm sure he'll fit in. I won't lie. I think we need what Zack brings in terms of toughness and grit and size as much as we need centremen.

I realize its a different trade but the Canucks brass has said it targeted Gragnani last trade deadline but couldn't pry him out of Buffalo. Apparently he's been on their radar for a while. They see him becoming a much better player than he's shown in Buffalo and the way they played him last night against the sabres I could see this happening.

The thread that just keeps on giving...
-
By game time tomorrow night Cody will be a basket case from all the media. They've been on the trade request question since the deadline and won't let it go. Who cares? Today they were saying that Rich Winter is his fourth player agent. This kid and his father could turn out to be a colossal headache for this organization. I wonder if Darcy did his homework on this kid. I'm hoping for the best. The kid seems o.k. but perhaps he's surrounded himself with idiots.

Ron Wilson getting fired in Toronta.

Ya I almost coughed up a wing when I heard the host ask that. I'm not sure if its just Van. but the radio takes jabs at the city of Buffalo all the time. Why would you ever want to live there, yadda yadda yadda. All the usual stuff. They like to call the sabres sad sack etc. Its kind of tiring considering when this franchise was lighting it up prior to the black day we all remember the canucks were the sad sack org. I think the debacle of letting Drury and Briere go kind of started that whole meme.

Heard an interview on 1040 out of Vancouver today and he called the sabres underachievers. Can't really say he's wrong and it was my feeling he was talking about the organization and not the players. He also said in response to the question as to why he turned down the offer to fight against the coyotes tough guy that he isn't going to waste his time fighting a guy that plays 4 minutes a game and that the canucks have given him the go ahead to fight if its from a big hit or whatever but they want him to concentrate on playing hockey. Sounded like they feel like he does and that they want him to be an all around player and not just a goon. Can't blame him for that too.
-
I get your point but Kassian is Kassian not Lucic. And a young inexperienced Kassian at that. Its a tough role to play and as others have said he seems to be trying to develop into a hockey player that can fight not a fighter that can play hockey.
-
I Won't tear him down mainly because I had high hopes for him becoming that player and I was excited about his potential. Some people have to tear him down as he goes out the door to make themselves feel better about what they gave up ..He is only 21 and 20 games into his career. I think he may become 'that' player in a winning atmosphere like Vancouver? Who knows.
-
I changed my wording for you scott. Maybe he doesn't like dancing ,I don't know? I can change that wording too if its not to your satisfaction. :P
-
It was either a 1-0 game or tied at that point. Not sure he wants to fight and possibly put his team down. Wait till they are beating the sabres 5-1 on saturday night and he'll dance.
-
I had high hopes for Zack and I kind of hate to see that type of player go but from what I've seen of Cody this year I'm really excited Regier was able to land him. You can't teach what he has as far as I'm concerned. As far as hockey instinct goes.
-
I hope you and your boy enjoy the game. I'll be watching from a barstool. :doh:
-
Should be an interesting game saturday night.
-
Thats all he was getting in Van. on the 3rd line. Put him on the 1st here and he'll surprise you.
