I just never imagined Lupul one of those players that would fall into a no-trade clause. Once upon a time it was only elite players warranted this kind of pampering.

I made it to about 1:15. As much as I love this team that one was putting me to sleep. I'd rather see a drum track to Led Zeppelins ' Rock and Roll ' with some good highlights. That gets my blood pumpin.

When he finally gets this team into the playoffs more often than he doesn't I'll give him a free pass. Good drafting record means squat without making the playoffs. I'm taking a patient approach with TP and giving Darcy the benefit of doubt but this team needs to be in the playoff picture more than they have been. Until that happens I really can't take Darcys outspoken supporters seriously.

They could have waited to see if we sneaked into the 8th and final playoff spot before they reward him with an extention. :cry:

This one on N.B.C. ?

Nothing makes what he did acceptable. Not even raising half a billion dollars for charity because without the tour wins he's a nobody who wouldn't have been able to raise that money. He couldn't even remember how many people he had sued while trying to prolong the lie. Some are calling him a sociopath ? But I do hope his foundation can survive without him.

Just win baby.

Lance. Any thoughts? Personally I've always thought he was dirty. Although I dislike the man and what he'll forever be known for he does do alot for his foundation and raises a ton of money for the fight against cancer. Hopefully his admission of guilt doesn't put an end to that.

In response to the thread title. It would appear not. :(

Giroux is pretty tough in his own right. Not a knuckle dragger but he'll battle hard which is all you can ask for. Thats the kind of toughness I want. A little bit of that in every player on the team. Including the skill guys.

I kind of enjoyed seeing teams suffer for their stupid decisions.

I'm with you on this Ink. I want guys in the other room to be puking before the game thinking about the shite they're going to have to go through to win the game.

My condolences. Thoughts and prayers in your time of loss. Maybe he can put a word in to the big guy about our sabres and the long suffering fans ?

That was priceless. Kind of reminded me of blazing saddles in that scene.

Went and saw Django unchained and I have to say that was a great movie. Awesome.

Iginla is in the last year of his contract. Just sayin.

Ah yes. Nice.

Not sure if this has been mentioned before ( sorry if it has ) but as a way of saying sorry to its fans the Sharks are offering the chance to one fan to be in the official team photo this season. Not too sure how they'll choose the fan but most likely a season ticket holder ?

Any word yet on a penalty for the perp in this incident ? Was it an elbow ? Sure did closeline him.

My point was that I value him higher than letting him be lost to waivers or being traded for a draft pick. It's a no brainer if you can pry a high first round pick out of someone but he's developed way beyond expectations from the time he was drafted. This kid deserves a good long look in a sabres uni before you go give up on him in the hopes of hanging onto a d man that can never hope to have the upside of Brennan.

Does everyone value Brennan so low or am I wrong to assume we may have a future star based on his growth in the A.H.L. ? He most certainly gets claimed if put on waivers. No doubt in my mind.

I agree. Why even consider it ?

At this point I'd be happy for a good old fashioned trade player for player where nobody gets jobbed and both parties get what they want. Come on Darcy, roll the dice.

Starting to feel like a mini trade deadline day.

Love him too because he's a straight shooter. He's not always right ( some would say rarely ) but he's honest to a fault and tells it as he sees it. And he's right on what he says about the devils and Kovi. Imo.
