With all the time negatives that OSP had, the one good was a no move clause which was awesome and completely changes the way I look at him. So it was OSP that was insulated more than TP. So Terry simply agreed to it. Let me ask, if you became a billionaire tomorrow and bought the Sabres, would you be inclined to tinker a little, at least in the beginning? I know damn well I'd be putting my hands on that team and I have some semblance of self control (albeit, not a ton) Would you (not you personally) rather have a Jerry Jones owner, or an owner that you don't hear a peep from, irregardless of how the team is doing? TP is far from perfect and this subject goes into deep layers I'm not familiar with, and probably won't become familiar with, but on the surface, I'm not going to hate on a guy that honestly seems like he is trying with good intentions.

A billionaire bought the team, he's adding to Buffalo in general, and there's only so much he can do. I place the blame on the players sucking, not playing with heart, whatever ya wanna call it. Terry has made some questionable calls, but he's a billionaire owner with good intentions and he gets to make that call every day of the week. I guess the alternative is a hockey team in Houston and no more SS, ill pass on that

Haha, both holy *****, or O *****

Does Nathan McKinnon have the best wrist shot in the game? I know Laine and OV may have the best one timers. Matthews maybe? Eich has a good one, but accuracy isn't good enough

I forgot all about it, I'm doing better without one than I would have if I made picks

Crap, I did too, but I'm guessing I wouldn't have picked well anyways

Probably not to the extent last night, but this series has 7 games written all over it

If I tell you you're cute, will it make it better

My wish is that Randall comes back

Holy crap, the avs had 56 SOG last night

Surprised by the isles, they look great Coaching matters, eh?

Kadri and Babcock combine to form one of the most punch able faces in hockey

ROR didn't quit. However, many give lehner a pass for demons, when it's been highly speculated, and known to many locals that ROR had a major drinking problem, take with a grain of salt, but I believe this to be true. Sadly, I'm becoming a bit sour on our core, but that is not a convo for this thread

Does Tampa not have "it" with no kucherov it's not looking so good

Navy boy, only one stint, civilian life is better. I appreciate the fact that we appreciate our vets, my father was in Vietnam and he came home to a much different situation. But the veteran stuff in sports is nauseating, @LGR4GMI don't know if i could do it man, the whole song?!

Get rid of the DJ, for the love of all things holy, get rid of the floss cam for kids, enough with the over pandering to the military (and I'm a veteran). I'm with PA, more classic stuff from the 90s before social media took over the world. The on ice performance will help, but not cure the 2019 atmosphere.

I agree that's probably the scenario, I think Tampa used all it's bullets in that first period and CBJ wore them down, I don't expect that to happen again..... With that being said, Columbus really did cycle well and have a decent presence in the O zone, also played equally as physical. I'm not counting them out honestly

I'm of the ilk that if there is truly a guy that jbot wants, maybe at 3 considering the top 2 are fairly unanimous, maybe see what it takes to trade up to 3 or 4 to guarantee you get that guy. What would it take to get 3 from 7, give Chicago #7 + a 2nd round, +? I don't follow draft charts so I honestly have no idea.

As long as they have "checking detail" and "play the right way" then I'm good, also mad skilllz on the left face off dot. Oh wait, lousy housley is gone I like this kid in all seriousness, unfortunately I don't think he lasts until 7

I don't doubt that Kane has probably matured as a person, I wish him best of luck in SJ, although I'm not happy with his incidents here (def don't need to hash into that) With that being said, damn do I love playoff hockey, the first round is awesome because there are so many games, I had an evening off and I was constantly flipping between all the games available, basically skipped all the commercials and intermission. Every team finds a way to turn it up, the refs let some obvious stuff go (inconsistently) but I notice the players are griping a bit less that in the regular season. I can't wait for the Sabres to get back into this dance.....ill keep hoping, one day we will. Lastly, anyone think CBJ can take out Tampa in this series?

Insane!

Tampa looking gassed

Tampa is rolling, sabres wouldn't last 35 seconds in the playoffs

I don't know how an assistant to an awful coach stays on, let alone gets an interview for the gig. Didn't he coach the D? If so, then I've seen enough

I agree, honestly I was fine with everything until the avatar change, we've had many posters over the years that supported other teams, but never an avatar, that is straight up crap.
