  1. Spreading out the suck on the blueline I see.
  2. All I know is hos interviews are sleep inducing LOL
  3. Its a melancholy song about hoping that things improve. I never understood how folks would want to relate that song to good Sabres times.
  4. Fair enough. Intent matters.
  5. Woo hoo, let’s all go back and throw someone’s change of opinion in their faces! With evidence!
  6. Id be genuinely surprised if it were for more than a few years. *don’t know, and don’t care enough to look into how that lines up with his UFA date. I’m just stating that I don’t think he gets a long term extension.
  7. I think this is a pretty accurate prediction.

    Who sits?

    VO or JJP for now, but it would definitely be a game to game evaluation.
  9. See my next post down. The new guy wouldn’t necessarily need to replace all of what Mitts brings. They rarely do right off the bat. It often comes down to a contract/value/ or maybe a specific trait that results in non core players moving.
  10. I mostly agree. I don’t see him as a core player, and I don’t think the team does either. He’ll either be moved in a hockey trade to fill a more pressing hole or to get a different look to the team, or he’ll be replaced by an ELC player in the next wave. All of his effectiveness doesn’t need to be replaced by a rook. It may come down to a contract/value equation when that new guy is ready.
  11. I think when the next wave of kids arrive Casey is going to be one of the guys that get pushed off to make room. The good thing is, his performance has been plenty good enough that we’ll get solid value in return.
  12. Hmmmm…. I remember this. And the team reduced the temperature in the building to improve ice conditions. I wonder if it could be the ive again? Hmmmm…. I remember this.

  13. Hopefully he doesn’t try it against Darnell Nurse. It didn’t end well for the Big Rig the last time.
  14. A week ago I watched an interview with Ken Squire. He was a legendary auto racing announcer for NASCAR. He retired not too long ago. The interviewer asked him what trait he attributed to his success. Ken answered (in my words) the ability to selectively exaggerate what he sees, and the first thing I thought of was how Rick called a hockey game. The change in tone to build drama as a play unfolds, regardless of how routine that play was. Classic targeted exaggeration. But Rick could sustain it all game. Maybe Dan is getting better at exaggerating play as it unfolds. I’ll have to pay attention next game.
  15. ESPN+ for national ESPN games. For the remainder, 🏴‍☠️ I
  16. Doohickie’s ride took him past a dispensary last night.
  17. Wasn’t it Stamkos that said it’s an 85% league? I think the top half of the rest of the league is playing at 100% right now.
  18. I think those 3 supplement what KO brings very well, but there is a reason KA and DG speak with so much reverence towards KO. He has a perspective and respect that only time, talent, and mindset can bring. Th e 3 you mention may have that perspective, respect, and mindset eventually. But not yet.
  19. I hope KO retires. Not because I think we’ll be better with someone else in that roster spot, we won’t. I hope he retires simply because every time he takes a good jolt, or ends up in a scrum, I fear for his safety. I think there will be a measurable effect on losing his leadership. I Hope someone steps up, or we get some of that leadership replaced from the outside. Kyle’s role is incredibly valuable on and off the ice. His play may be replaceable, be the “stuff” that he brings along with his play is ***** hard to replace.
  20. I don’t even understand how it is tone deaf. Nearly every parent has made that joke and got laughter. It was light hearted. MH doesnt get the benefit of the doubt because he spoke his mind when fans wanted the team to lose on purpose and they haven’t gotten over it.
  21. IMO you play the better hand. Right now Vinny is the better hand. If he falters, he sits. VO hasn’t earned a spot over Vinny since hes been back.
  22. It would be a travesty if VO played over Vinny. Vinny has outplayed VO since he’s been back in the lineup.
