Well they actually have in this game

Stupid refs, let ‘em fight

It was a questionable hit, not intentional head contact but it was there. Reverse the players and we get a BS major. At very least they should have evened it up or not called the instigator. It wasn’t just a big hit, it injured a player too.

He put his hip into Kulich’s face. The fact VGK gets a PP is absolute BS

We were the better team in the 1st; yet we are down 1..... ugh

But that also leaves us with little else to help fix the team. I don’t feel Ekblad will magically flip the team entirely alone. Also I’d fight to get McLeod at 4x4mil which is very fair for a 3C

Very true, if Ottawa and Norris theoretically hid his injury that would a major ordeal.

I don’t know if he’d take a bridge deal, and if so he’s at minimum want his present deal + whatever his RFA tender is.

If you want Ekblad to would have to move Byram who's going to want 7+ mil like Ekblad

It just feels like no matter what we do, we lose. Yes I know Norris has a history but plenty of other players have had bad injury histories and have been fine Hell Eichel had a 1st time surgery as well as a history of a couple ankle injuries but hasn't missed much time with Vegas outside a freak thumb injury.

The good ole days

That could also lend to his anger at the news claiming he wanted out

Well I’m happier with Ruff than I would have Appert. Doesn’t seem like an exhaustive search was ever in the cards.

That would mean the Terry Pegula was the smarter of the two on coaches which is honestly rather sad. Why in God's name would anyone think firing Granato to promote Appert was a great idea?

At this point I call him that because I don’t feel like spelling his name

Love Benson running around getting his nose into everything

Thank you guys for putting up a fight there; ***** you Detroit

There’s 4 min left in the 3rd I feel for some of the Sabres players, they get shafted by refs constantly and then take the L when they fight back.

If the team cared I’d send a very angry letter to the NHL about this asinine reffing

BS calls seem to be in vogue against us the past couple weeks

I do like this fire, good on Tuch for hunting down and fighting Rasmussen

So many garbage calls against us, blatant calls missed for us and Quinn keeps falling over

LGR effectively cleared this point. If you and Sneaky Joe want to buy into some grand conspiracy that Dahlin, a player not known for over exaggerating or long winded media responses who speaks English as his 2nd language, decided to put on a show because his secret meeting with an ultimatum was leaked. With as much of a hell hole this team has become Dahlin could of denied ever having any meeting and played dumb, but he didn't. He fully admitted to meeting with Adams and stating he was very unhappy with the state of things but also vehemently denounced the idea he wants to leave. Dahlin legitimately likes it here, his family likes the city; he just set up a charity here and he has a great deal of pride in both himself and what he can do. Unlike Eichel who had ties to another region in the US, Dahlin is a Swede living in the US meaning this is the only city he's lived in over here and there is an inherent connection that creates. I can fully buy him being angered by a false narrative being created by a 2bit controversy maker over him telling Adams to fix stuff. I think its very likely that there is a matter of pride to him about leading this team out of the darkness. Some people are just built that way; they don't see value in jumping ship and would rather go down fighting win or lose.

No single skater can do that unless they're a goalie

I just don't see us winning or even breaking even with any trade involving Power and frankly Peterka being traded garbage scares me immensely since he's one of our few goal scorers as it is. Also yes in regards to Benson and Kulich(most likely) both have low cap hits with high ceilings. Sure, that true but any trade involving them puts us in the negative or breaking even for Top 6F/Top 4D numbers. Frankly at this point I have no clue what to do, the only valuable assets team seem to have interest in is our few solid to great NHLers and only our Top prospects while asking through the nose. Add to that NMC and NTCs and the market dries up rather quickly. Who exactly are you trading Power for? Petersson is a headcase that seems to lack any internal fire; the guy sleep walked through the 4 Nations Tourney. Perhaps a swap with a prospect for Charlie McAvoy if Boston wants to tear it all down? The cap rise only hurts us because it won't bind teams to being more willing to part with players with value.
