I’ve seen other players from other teams say turning off the outside noise helps their game. Jacks likely felt that its a distraction reading what the media and fans are saying. I don’t blame him.

Jacks no different than the fans. He played his heart out most of the season and likely waited as we did for JBottom to bring in help. Nothing but crickets. Simmons is clearly on his last legs and JBotttom wants to resign him. Kahun may turn out ok, who knows ? Likely won’t help the cause with Ralph calling the shots. It is demoralizing for the fans so I can imagine how Jack feels. But he seems injured for sure. Broken heart ?

Leafs Kings is quite the show. Goaltender duel in the shootout. Leafs have to score to keep this thing going. And he does. Kings win it !

I know yikes. By all accounts he is an intelligent guy but he comes off as the opposite when discussing the team make-up and what it’ll take to turn this around.

“ Buffalo has always had a better opportunity to sign their own players .” He might as well have said we have to overpay to get players to come here and our players who have lived in the city and understand the great things about Buffalo and its residents are easier to sign. I suppose thats what he meant ? Damn straight its hard to pull players in. 9 years without a sniff with no sign its going to turn around anytime soon. Thats a hard sell.

Holy jebus the crew is comparing leafs facial hair. Slow newsday ?

All the more reason to shitcan his asss. The bar has been set so damn low for this franchise. Someone upthread mentioned that this is like another tank where we’re likely to pick top 5 again. With JBottoms moves this past year or his lack of moves I’m beginning to think thats been the plan. And that goes for the hiring of the most interesting man in the world.

Amen

These Pens announcers have had it too good for too long. You can hear it in their delivery.

Amazing how the pens swarm our net with basically no fear. Right into the blue paint trying to score. Rarely see that from our guys.

Everyone needs to step up. The only guy that has the last five games is okposo.

Our achilles heel

That shot shouldn’t go in

Joho holy shite he picked the corner

Marty go bald. I missed that. I’ve got the Pens broadcast.

No playoffs for a couple /few more years with JBottoms plan

Concussions happen in almost every sport, minor league, pro leagues, beer leagues. Your words were ‘ unlike other professions ‘. I grew up in a town where 6 friends died logging in a 35 year period. Another friend in the pulp mill had a tank of molten sulfur empty onto him. These friends made a fraction of what pro athletes make and their jobs were dangerous. As I said hockey is a safe job in comparison.

Full stop at players risk their lives playing. When was the last time an NHL player died on the job? I grew up in a small logging community. I grew up with so many guys who are no longer with us because they died on the job. Thats just logging. Hockey is a very safe way to make a living.

You and I both. Its always about the future. Its never about the present.

He’ll have to be a yes man. Or asskisser is how i see it. The owner is crazy.

Yeah that ones mine. Someone said it sounds dirty but my intention was in how his name relates to our spot in the standings. lol

Not sure how or why I quoted the above post. It was a thumb move. Very very thumb.

It doesn’t matter if they fire JBottom because they’ll hire the wrong guy to replace him anyways. They always do. It’s the Pegulas M.O.

This is where I’m at. In order to have those wow moments you’re going to have some gaffs. Face it. His competition is good. Look at Hughes and Makar. They make things happen but are given the leeway to go for it and there are gaffs.
