  1. Yup, my bad. Was operating until old information. He's been up for the last 7 games but a healthy scratch for 4 of them. Seems like 20+ minutes per game in the AHL would be better but who am I to question George McPhee's handling of young talent?
  2. In a vacuum I'd say he'd be worth it straight up for Kane. Las Vegas has too many D-men under contract...he should be in the NHL right now. In the real world however Kane as a pending UFA isn't valuable to Vegas so it doesn't work. Maybe Nylander for Theodore? Of course it might help if Nylander could play hockey this year.
  3. A cynic might say that. A delusional cynic.
  4. Agree with this. Moulson is a sunk cost. Time to act rationally and let him go.

    http://buffalonews.com/2017/10/24/pegulas-absorbing-costs-hold-funeral-keybank-center/?utm_medium=more_stories More pain in their wallets for those rich pricks!
  7. He retired. My recollection is the physical ailments piled up. And age.
  8. Hey Reinhart dressed tonight! I hadn't seen him.
  9. Apparently Sedin is so skilled he can control the puck with his mind
  10. Should be no goal
  11. Tennyson is so great on the PP
  12. For the Sabres that means he's out 3-4 weeks.
  13. We can't hang with Vegas...they're too hard working and smart for Buffalo
  14. Love to see Eichel get a shot on goal tonight
  15. In total agreement with this sentiment. Phil is saying "Hey Zemgus, nice job scoring and playing physical and fast hockey on Jack's wing...now go center the 4th line with Jordan Nolan." WTF
  16. http://www.thehockeynews.com/news/article/how-long-should-a-team-hang-on-to-a-goaltending-prospect Article on Subban puts his development curve in perspective. Unclear how he'll do tonight of course...one thing is there isn't any NHL tape to study yet so he does have the element of surprise so to speak, at least for a few games.
  17. It does not. However I don't eat with, fly on planes with, ride on buses with, sweat and physically bang up against, nor shower and change clothes with, any of my co-workers (except my wife :flirt: ). So I don't think my office is a good control group to compare vs. an NHL team. My recollection of fraternity (or dorm) living back in college however is that stomach bugs generally worked their way through the population pretty much every year. Or maybe that was alcohol poisoning? But anyway, my point is that I have no idea what NHL teams do or don't do to prevent the spread of communicable diseases, I just think that without some data and frame of reference this is sort of a fruitless discussion because their situation in terms of physical proximity is not really comparable to our every day experience. Maybe the army would be a better comparison. They certainly have a strong culture and rigorous practices trying to keep the soldiers from harmful bacteria and viruses before they worry about bullets and bombs.
  18. Maybe they have. Is the prevalence of this issue more or less frequent on NHL teams than a control group with similar risk factors?
  19. Almost a sure loss coming in Anaheim tomorrow so that'll be 6...maybe at Vegas on Tuesday they'll break through. Time to start getting excited about the draft again.
  20. Yeah it's like a random number generator with those guys. Or shaking the magic 8 ball. "Try again later".
  21. Sabres training staff assessed it as day-to-day. Crack operation there. I could see this being a wasted season for Nylander.
  22. This post made me laugh out loud. Thank you for that. So by analogy, Crosby's success must be predicated on Bonino's success on the 3rd line.
  23. (Sigh)....forget about it. Let's go Sabres!
  24. I was asking a question. So please do enlighten me as to the point I missed.
  25. So just to clarify: You're not down with amputee veterans standing during the national anthem? I see hundreds of millionaire athletes kneeling during the national anthem on Sundays and have no problem with it. Likewise I am OK to see one elderly woman stand for the anthem on a Thursday night. But that's just me.
