    I mean Lyon isn't horrible, he likely play 40 or so games here unless we think he can play more which think asking a lot. Like anything contract and terms matter, if he's signed for 3-4 seasons in the $4-$6 million range I'm okay with it. Anything longer or higher than our management is even dumber than we think. 

    So, another year of, "which UPL shows up tonight?"

    As it goes for goalies, I think Lyon is one of the better tries into getting one solid enough, maybe he has a good season.

     

    Oh, how far have we sunk, since the days of Miller and Hasek 

    Our G situation is similar to the Bills QB situation, post Kelly - pre Allen 

    Hoping one of these "unsures" pans out 😢

    Solid pick, I show him ranked at 71, picked at 71. Seems destined to a bottom pair role, with little to no offensive ability, which is fine for a 3rd rounder

    Just wanted an "attitude adjuster" or a few of them 

    For far too long the strategy against Buf has been to "go for the kneecaps" (so to speak) when being outplayed by Buf. 

    Lucich's cheapie on Miller still haunts this team (even with John Scott single-handedly ending the goon era by rearranging Thorton's noggin the following season). 

    Buffalo, the hockey club, has a serious lack of jam/grind/moxie/toughness, whatever you want to call it. I'm not suggesting that they become a modern day Syracuse Bulldogs. Just swap out some of our "skill" for some much-needed grit!

    Hopefully, this off-season, with the moves being made, is doing that? 

    Ultimately, I'm not convinced Adams is capable of constructing a "team" so, hopefully, Jarmo is being given the authority to put his stamp on the product? 

    15 effing years of limp-d!ck hockey is waaaaay too much, IMO!!! 

    C'mon Terry, give us back our lust for the Sabres...

    Tuch may be another player who might not want to be here. We'll have to wait to see how things materialize with him. If the team struggles next season and is out of the playoffs he might prefer to be somewhere else. 

    Man, if Mr Sabre, himself wanted out have we achieved "rock bottom" ???

    Reality, is a sad sack in Sabreland 

    If THIS is "hockey Heaven" then, Hail Satan, I guess???

    The teacher’s insensitivity wasn’t  too damaging to me because I was voted the class president and gave a short speech on stage to the audience at the graduation ceremony. It ended well. 

    Good on you for deflecting said teacher's $hit bullet 

     

    It's sad that a person, who's job is/was to aide in the molding/shaping of our future citizens, was THAT lacking in situational awareness. Just a shite thing to do to a developing mind, IMO 

     

    For the sake of clarity, I feel obliged to share that I'm not a 'participation trophy' sort of patent, I'm (mostly) from the "old school" and I'm trying to instill in my son the same traditions, minus the, quick-to-use-corporal punishment, for 'behavioral modifications' 😃

    I do remember encounters with faculty like the one you described, and I hope that my kid won't experience anything similar! Faculty seems, generally speaking, rather soft on the kids these days, IMO

    Incidentally, my boy received an academic performance award in science (5th grade) and the thing has a TYPO in the descriptor!!!! I suck at written composition, so you know it's blatantly obvious if I saw it. 😃

    The irony of an educational institution presenting an 'exemplary' award with a mistake that I assume is due to lack of checking for errors is not lost on me.  

    We are in strange times, my friend...

    You are having a good time mocking me. It’s apparent to all that I’m out of step and out of tune.

    True story: In grammar school at graduation my malicious music teacher told me not to sing at the ceremony but to just mouth the words and fake singing. 😀

    I think you're a cool cat, if my opinion means anything? 

    I had the opposite chorus exp during my scholastic years 

    Music teachers would volunteer me, EVERY year, from 1st grade up to middle school b/c of my vox capabilities (not bragging, it's whatever) and it was my duty to get myself booted from chorus, as I found the experience not to my liking 🫡

    I suppose they heard something they liked/needed b/c it was more than one teacher AND it happened every year, until high-school 

    Now, had they been performing Fauré's Requiem, maybe I would have reduced my resistance

    So id swap Ferraro for Liljigren, Ferrao is left handed and he and Dahlin would be perfect together, and he has a ton of bite to his game

     

    The Sammy deal is perfect, I can see NYI liking his size and the may feel they can ressurect his career, Power - Dobson would be an amazing pair, and this would be the "puck mover" type that Owen says he likes to play with. 

     

    Still think you could add a vet Left handed dman to compete for the bottom pair that has some jam, someone like a Doumalin or someone like that, say a better Gilbert 

     

    Then you sign Jeannot for the 4th line and think about moving Lafferty or keeping him as the 13th forward

    Is Jaennot the guy who, basically, recalculated Cousins' trajectory when he broke Cousins' face in that ugly fight???

    McDavid can't get over the hump with FLA...🤔

    McAllen? 

    Totally unfair comparison 

     

    Allen = money in pressure situations 

     

    McJesus = uninspiring 

     

    It's not Josh's fault that McBeane are wasting his prime with poorly spent FA money AND wiffed on fraft picks for a, supposed, defensive "genius" and his defense, which consistently comes up short when it really counts
