  1. This, I may have been mistaken. I always thought they were. This I knew.
  2. Uncle. Regardless, my working theory is Bogosian wasn’t hurt all that time. He was “hurt “ riding out his contract/trying to get traded. And the vibe with Mule seems similar to me. This time, he’s benched for 2 games and gets injured on an innocuous play his first game back? My radar is pinging.
  3. Title sez it all. For those of you that have tried any of the Twitter alternatives, do any of them have a decent number of hockey folks that are creating content?
  4. Tinfoil hat time. Mule is giving me Zach Bogozian vibes. I distinctly remember there were unsubstantiated rumors that Mule was being advised to not sign with Buffalo. I seem to recall it was Ulf giving him that advice. I dunno. Just a gut feeling here.
  5. Yeah, I screwed that up by saving my new password selection this morning. The problem is, I had the old password wrong. So this site did not accept the password change, but my phone stored the new password. I probably need an assist from SDS now. Unless there is a way to view your password on this site that I haven’t noticed yet.
  6. Still doesn’t allow me to view my current password. I tried to change it using several generic passwords Ive used in the past. No hits. Account name Weave may not survive this unless there is a way I can see the current password I am using. And, of course, I selected “save password” in my browser before seeing that I had the wrong original password, so I am probably good and ***** now.
  7. Any tips for retrieving your password if you haven’t used it in probably 2-3yrs? If not, well….. it’s been a long strange trip, lol.
  8. Yeah, this should be a beacon for all of us. We are all guilty at times of communicating as if there is a bot on the other end. Most of us still are humans, with human failings and human distractions.
  9. Oh, damn. 56……. Too young.
  10. My money is on 3 games.
  11. This might be a bellwether game. If they can’t be “up” for this one, I don’t know how they get to where they are in play for 8th by thanksgiving.
  12. Ive stated often during the tank era (and as far as I am concerned, the tank era isn’t over until this team puts it to bed), that you can’t have a majority kids team. You need a majority vets team to overwhelm the kids with the “right way” to do things. These kids have not seen what a successful NHL team needs to do. Every GM during this era has picked around the edges for meaningful vets. It doesn’t work because there isn’t a critical mass driving the kids. And a tough guy coach isn’t going to change that. And now we have reached a point where our kids are now the vets and are supposed to somehow flip a switch and begin doing things that noone has shown them to do. It’s ***** madness.
  13. Hmmm….. which Gen Z stereotype are we throwing around here? Not much for the generational stereotypes usually foisted upon the young uns. I don’t think other teams are burdened by them.
  14. I watched a Sabres produced youtube video last night that I presume was a post practice interview with Owen Power. “We’ve done a lot of good things” was a very similar quote to Power’s response. They don’t seem to be on the same page, and they don’t seem to sense the urgency either. This is what happens when there just aren’t enough grizzled vets from winning organizations in the room. Our vets are mostly products of this culture.
  15. What the hell lists did you two end up on? I have literally had 0 this election cycle.
  16. It’s all a made up story. None of this sounds credible at all.
  17. Hiring from within won’t fix the problem. The problem is within. And promoting a rookie GM is how this snowball turned into a glacier. That is no answer as well.
  18. I think, at its core, this is the overwhelming issue. And the state of the franchise is such that supplementing what we do have is supremely challenged by the state of the franchise making it a no fly zone for nearly every player, coach and executive of worth in the NHL.
  19. I was not really concerned with how many points they are behind. And I was not really concerned because the number of teams to leap frog was low. But it is now November and they find themselves with many teams to leap frog. Statistically, they have about 3 weeks to get back in front of the teams that separate them from 8th place. If playoffs was the goal, they have set themselves up for failure.
  20. I have watched so little of this team over the last 13 yrs that continued performance like this is functionally equivalent to the team moving for me. I will take my chances.
  21. Any answer other than replace the owner makes me scratch my head in wonder.
  22. Hey mods! I am pretty sure Inkman is in control of PAs account!
  23. His value probably dropped as a trade chip. Won’t come over for 2 yrs. Can’t imagine teams are chomping at the bit for that asset.
