  1. Box score says Eichel has 9 shots on goal through 2 periods? Is he that dominating or is that more of a fluke? (I'm not able to watch...)
  2. "Watching" at work. NHL.com posts video of the goal ~20 minutes after it's scored.
  3. Why didn't he get a flu shot, right? Total bust. Everyone knows you need to get a flu shot.
  4. My high school basketball coach used to call what the Sabres are playing "Bullfighter Defense". Just standing around, stepping to one side as the opponent comes at you. Ole' Sabres!
  5. I sent 10 puns into a pun contest. Guess how many won? Not one pun in ten did.
  6. Don't think so...she's got cat-like reflexes like her old man
  7. I was also thinking along the lines of nfreeman in viewing Kane on ice, but now think I will choose to follow this line of reasoning as it's much more optimistic and I can use that!
  8. If the team can make a run towards a playoff spot, keep him. If not, consider trading as his value is peaking and he's proven to be an above average injury risk as well as an above average risk in terms of off-ice antics causing him to miss time or be a major distraction. However don't trade him for a bag of pucks. Needs to be a solid return with younger and/or proven players signed to lower cap consuming contracts. If he's still here after the trade deadline based on Sabres playoff position or lack of a decent return, then reconsider the situation after the season ends. Note: I do think we are seeing "peak Kane" as 25 is not an age where wingers typically develop into better players than they had been previously. I.e. when healthy and on his game he's a 30 goalie scoring physical force. We just haven't seen him healthy or on his game as much as hoped the past 1.5 years.
  9. Gotcha. In that case, I do believe they are on the cusp of actually being on the cusp. It's like cusp squared,
  10. I wasn't inferring they are ON the cusp. Just, you know, doing math.
  11. Actually, if they get 1 point more than a point per game over the next 44 games, they'd accumulate 82 points (45 more + 37 from first 38 games) and that would beat last year's total of 81. That's a finish only ever so slightly better than they've played (in terms of getting points) thus far this year. A very strong finish would be 59 points in 48 games, putting them at 96 for the year and on the cusp of making the playoffs (or maybe not but close).
  12. Sabres really need a power play but it seems the ticky tacky calls only go against them
  13. Had amazing nachos in Pittsburgh at a Pens game two years ago. Cheese, pulled pork BBQ, and jalapeƱos piled on top. It was beyond great. My girlfriend was completely enamored with the nachos and the hockey game experience...I made her my wife based on the data point (Ok and a few others)
