I’m sure 81 being an og Knight will garner a few more sway votes but if Jack gets it, good for him.

Nope. Assists are great but he’s gone 12 wo a goal. Marchessault deserves it. He’s scored a lot and often.

Tis over

And sadly my preseason Florida pick for cup winner is looking very precarious now. Damn I wanted that to payout.

It sure helps having guys who make $10 million a year able to sit out their injuries until playoff time. It allows teams with top talent to be able to compete in the playoffs. Vegas being $14 million over the cap this season. Tampa before them. Vegas is gonna be lit when they win next week, especially if they do it at home.

Only $10 million? I’d have thought Ras would get $12 million avg

And how are Vegas not getting 10 min misconduct pens for the crap they pull in dying seconds? Not even imo. Smith throws a little jab at Montour and only gets 2 after 62 went back at him. Why no ten? The nhl ? 😑 Vegas full marks for series lead. But all I want is even officiating.

Tkachuk getting two 10 min misconduct penalties is a joke. Once again the NHL showing how to not showcase top players. Yes he’s an asshat, and is a goof, but he’s entertaining to watch when he’s not playing your team. Both misconducts are ridiculous. Oh no he knocked his stick out of his hand. Come on. And enough with every other player getting 10. This game is not going to turn into a 1970’s game.

Great hit. Eichel bailed late and may have made it worse. How 19 gets a ten there is a joke. How Fla isn’t on the pp even worse. Never seen Jack hit like that before.

I was gonna add that to my comment. I have no doubt.

Well there goes my pre season bet. It was fun while it lasted. It made “having” to cheer for Florida palatable.

Yes. There to support both Jack and Sam.

It’s pretty clear the calls are not even. How was the Barbashev hit legal? Looked like direct head shot? Even in game one the reverse hit was very suspect with head first point of contact. Hill playing very well.

I love the city but yeah, the league needs to do something about this over the Cap playoff hockey. I imagine Stone was ready a month before the playoffs and because they were fine in the standings they let him sit. This loophole needs closing.

Well, my $10 bet last September on nhl cup winner futures bet in Vegas is still alive . I picked Florida. 11-1

It’s incredible to me that Levi isn’t their number one. He carried our Sabres into the final games and on a team not great defensively. Yet he can’t play with this lot of scrubs? Giving it away.

We have partied outside T Mobile in years past. Had a blast. We stay at the Park so it’s right there.

I’m gonna be in Vegas for a week starting next Wednesday. Gonna be wild there.

For all the talk of how great a leader Bergeron is, he led them to one Cup, which the Canucks choked away. And as great a guy he may be, he tagged along with many pricks along the way and watched his top rated team not win anything after 2011. He can have his Selke trophies. He should’ve led this team to multiple Cups. Historically this group, this core, ultimately choked many times. I for one, love it!

There is no way Winnipeg moves back to Atlanta. Come on. Atlanta failed twice, they won’t get a third shot. But wait, this is the nhl we’re talking about 🤔 Not happening

The more I watch Horvat now that he’s not in Vancouver i see his deficiencies. Great face off man but can’t drive his own line. Good at tips for goals but a terrible playmaker. The Canucks I thought screwed up by choosing Miller over Horvat but the latter has very little heart when it comes to sticking up for mates (like Auston M) whereas Miller (albeit a *****) has heart by the bucketloads. There was a time I thought Bo could be a fit in Buffalo but now I realize his best quality is faceoffs. The Isles are on the hook for 8 years 8.5 million and he’s in his late 20’s. Yikes.

Eichel looking good. Reffing though? My goodness. I’m all for big hits etc but how that big hit on Lowy in first minute wasn’t late on is beyond me. Then an interference call for a little bump? Bettman putting in the call, remember, no Canadian teams go too far guys. 😉

I’m not sure why the gm or coach would guarantee playoffs. There are no guarantees in this life. They believe they’ll get there but to guarantee it is stupid. So much can happen to derail the best laid plans. Those expecting playoffs and/or railing on them for not saying it’s expected, I think are kind of silly. We all want them to make it but no team can guarantee playoffs. No team. Humans should never expect anything. That’s when the trouble starts.

VO cannot be on this team next year imo. Yes he almost scored 30 but his going over a calendar month wo scoring isn’t acceptable. How many of his goals didn’t matter? How many extra points could we have had had he scored during that horrendous month he didn’t score? He’s just too inconsistent and cannot be relied upon sadly. Good kid, but a change is needed. If our pipeline wasn’t stocked up I’d keep him.

If Johnson doesn’t want to be a Sabre then see ya later Ryan. We need guys 💯 committed to being a Sabre.
