He takes some risks on D and takes too many dumb penalties. That said...to see him in-person you can understand why he's viewed by some as the number one defenseman simply due to his explosiveness on the attack. Not unlike his teammate McKinnon, when he gets the puck it's just electric when he takes it up ice. The other team is immediately on their heels so to speak, knowing they can't stop this guy 1 on 1. High quality shot chances occur with frequency. It's almost McDavid level.

Listened to the show on SiriusXM NHL channel this early evening and they spent a good bit of time on RJ and had Pete Weber as a guest, which was great.

I know what you mean. Last time it happened to me was Johnny Cash. Rick is at that level.

Glad to see she's supporting herself financially. Seriously though, great achievements and more to come I'm sure.

There has never been any dispute that UAP’s exist. The question is whether any of them are aliens. Some of them may be aliens. But Grusch’s testimony doesn’t prove anything. It’s second hand, from a questionable source, without corroboration or physical evidence. My belief is that, in general, the government is so incompetent that the idea of multi-decade massive cover-ups of the largest ‘story’ in human history, especially in this day and age, is incomprehensible. That said, I’m not opposed or in opposition to the possibility that aliens have already, or will make contact with us. But my guess is we’ll not fare well in such an encounter as their technological superiority will be overwhelming, given that they apparently achieved interstellar travel.

Canandaigua...beautiful lake, nice restaurant options, hiking trails, maybe rent a boat, check out Sonnenberg Gardens.

Not saying it can't take 10 years...just saying it doesn't have to.

It's only because we're Sabres fans that we believe it takes a decade to rebuild.

Place looks packed

Went to Tedeschi Trucks Friday and Saturday at Red Rocks. Just amazing both times. 17-18 songs per night, no songs the same between the two nights. I looked on Setlist.fm and on their summer tour they played about 85 different songs. Best moment for me was on Saturday they played the Allman Brothers "Dreams" and the sky in the distance (maybe 30 miles to the East) had a cloud lightning show going on.... just awesome from the 40th row where I could see it framed up right above the stage. Also, Susan Tedeschi is a total blues rock goddess.

Ummm…yes?

I might be, I have always liked Tarasenko and he has had some injuries. But I would go for the upside and experience on a 1-year bet. It was only the season before last that he put up 34g and 48a in 75 games, his 6th season over 30 goals. He'll turn 32 this season which isn't by any means young, but guys with elite talent like Tarasenko can often be productive well into their 30's. And a guy who scored between 33 and 40 goals every year for 5 seasons (2014-15 through 2018-19) is, or was, elite. Maybe Olofsson will score more this year, but his best goal scoring season last year at 28 would be Tarasenko's 7th best season, and unlike VO: He's no Selke contender but I believe Tarasenko plays something that resembles defense He has 44 goals in 97 NHL playoff games...something that might be nice to have on the team come next Spring Doesn't matter...KA isn't going to make a move like this anyway.

At $5M for 1 year I’d have liked to see Tarasenko replace Quinn while he’s out and GMKA could have offered a team to 4th round pick to take VO off the roster. So there would effectively be zero incremental cap hit but the team would be upgraded this season.

Since moving to Colorado a year ago, every time I am driving in Lakewood 'above' Denver, on a clear night I look out at the city sprawl and these lyrics instantly play in my mind: The bright lights of Denver are shinin' like diamonds Like ten thousand jewels in the sky An' it's nobody's business where you're goin' or where you come from And you're judged by the look in your eye

I saw Joe Juneau walking around campus a few times during the couple of years we overlapped at RPI. Never spoke to him. That's all I got. I need to meet some hockey players! (I did meet and speak to Eric Clapton twice, so I'll hang my hat on that for now)

Send his ass back to Wisconsin!

A big fan of Game of Thrones it sounds like.

The weather in Denver is actually pretty good all year round except for frequent hail storms coming down the size of golfballs, 18 inches of heavy snow one day after it being 85 degrees in May, flash flooding, and massive forest/brush fires near major housing areas. But other than those things, it's awesome.

Danny Gare and Mike Foligno

It’s easy to forget how young these guys are, and what it was like at that age. Coming to a foreign country, playing in a tougher league, at age 18? Good stuff right there. I’m rooting for him!

Couldn't happen. Pegula was there and pretty sure the court order prevents PA from getting within 500 feet.

Is this how Adams has escalated the goalie talent in the organization?

Cool (ey)

Morgan Geekie…3rd line winger with upside, some size, and could play on the 2nd or 4th lines as needed. Only 24 years old, has playoff experience.

I see that Morgan Geekie didn't get qualified by Seattle. He's 24 and I think has more upside than Jost. His even strength scoring numbers per 60 minutes were quite strong and I thought he was pretty good in the playoffs. Could be a 3rd line fill-in until Quinn is back and bumps Casey back to the 3rd line.
