    Mike Weber was traded. Defensive depth cannot be overlooked. Gorges is an easy call given his experience and leadership. I think the Sabres are willing to trade him for a 6th round pick in 2019 if need be. If nothing else but to give him a shot at the playoffs and as a thank you for putting in his time with the Sabres. It will be easy to move him. Falk is a bit more of a stretch, but any team that is a little shallow on their depth might go for him. A team with a solid top 4 might be willing to give up a prospect if they could get a depth D back in the trade so as to not upset the mix too much. So, let's say you could send Falk and Kane somewhere for a 1st, a D prospect, etc. The receiving team doesn't want to let too many pieces go but if they can get a serviceable D in return..... Never know what might happen.

    The one in which some team might actually have an interest in acquiring Falk for a very low draft pick? The one in which the Sabres are positive they have what they want out of Antipin and plan on signing him again next year and are hoping like hell that someone might want to take a flyer on Beaulieu in a trade if the Sabres retain 50% salary or they want to have him in the game to get him going after returning to lineup. Keep in mind you are in the parallel dimension of it doesn't matter what the lineup is today because post trade deadline it will be different (that's the hope). Assume Falk and Gorges end up being shipped out....

    Do we have to? My son did manage to score today to help his current team beat his former team. Getting a win on my birthday was nice. Unfortunately today everyone was too busy to come to my party. Some stupid football game on or something.

    Well, it is a tier lower than Pacioretty according to reports. The link is interesting. It just shows that the market is still swirling around and no one is putting hard offers on the table. I am surprised there has not been at least one "early" deal yet.

    I'm kind of partial to Hofmann's hot dogs. I believe they are out of Syracuse but you can get them all over Rochester. I'll then go to Sahlens. Zweigles are my absolute last resort. They just don't do it for me.

    Of course they are both factored in. It's a glass half full/empty problem. Do you assign 50% of the result to Reinhart and 50% to Hutton? I give Hutton 90% of the credit for that not being a goal. While Reinhart gets 10%. For me it's more a positive play than a negative. Not black and white, but it's more positive than negative and for me by a lot.

    I think the Sharks could do that. Jumbo Joe has no knees left. They could write of this season and get Pacioretty and be in good shape next year.

    Think of it this way then. What number out of ten do you think that's a goal for any player, the best player, and Renhart? For me the number is not that different and as such I don't focus on what the shooter doesn't do, I focus on what the goalie did do. That's the difference between positive and negative.

    You act like a goalie never makes an incredible save. Like the best players are never robbed on a high percentage chance. Like I said... You can choose too be negative and act like that happens all the time when you know it doesn't.

    Listen to Marty. He explained it as well. Of course you expect it to be buried... But that doesn't mean that if it's not buried that the shooter is at fault.
  11. LTS
    No he did not. 95% of the net might be open but that does not mean that the best player in the world could put the puck anywhere within that 95%, let alone Reinhart. That's a play that scores more often than not even if your Grandma is shooting. It just so happened the puck hit the foot. It's probably pointless arguing it because those who want to find the negative will. It's a crap outcome but it's not because the player is crap.

    That replay on the Reinhart chance is why this team can't get those goals. So lucky to get the foot on that.

    I'd say lay off the sauce but we know that's not the case for you. :) I called that collision when it happened! I also know the lotto numbers. Ugh. Chef's.

    The SAVE of the game is not plural. Every save gets a trophy.

    I'm amazed that commercials can still get dumber. The Taco Bell commercials have really lowered the bar further than I thought it could go. I weep for humanity.

    Kane auditioning for the Blues? "Check it out guys. I can center the puck like a champ!"

    Refs are already in Go Patriots mode.

    Sabres don't look crappy. I missed the two losses but I assume they didn't look like this?
  19. LTS
    I'll go with that. Gotta get the stick down.
  20. LTS
    Well... That pass looked like it went right under the stick. But I'm not going to replay to confirm.

    By buying a ticket. It's probably part of the agreement somewhere. Although since you are in a public venue that's on broadcast TV there is probably no need to get consent.

    Slow night in here tonight. That's okay.

    Carubba Collision within the first two minutes of the game. Girgensons gets a 2 for 1... Knocks himself over.
  24. LTS
    There's always the off chance that some team might have an interest in Nolan for a playoff run and they want to see him skate? Maybe? Possibly? Can we sell ourselves on that idea just get by? I'll be inebriated for this game... oh yes indeed.

    S_A_TUR_D_A_Y NIGHT. S_A_TUR_D_A_Y NIGHT. Your Sabres roll back in action tonight against the Blues of St. Louis. In fake news today, it was reported that Jason Botterill had a talk with some of the team and told them that if they can beat St. Louis tonight it will make the Blues want to acquire Kane in a trade that much faster. Other headlines from around the league: The NHL has announced that NHL.tv single team packages featuring the Sabres are free for the remainder of the year. Said Gary Bettman, "The fans of Buffalo should not have to pay to watch this team. It's unfair and they deserve better." The NHL suspended Johan Larsson after he begged to be given a break from having to play for the team. Sources confirm Larsson asked for an in-person hearing but was denied and is considering his options to appeal his 2 game suspension in hope for more. St. Louis Blues were seen scouting the 15U Junior Sabres team at HarborCenter Friday evening. Head Coach, Mike Yeo (YO!), reportedly asked the NHL to allow his team to play them since they needed more competition to make their trip to Buffalo worthwhile. No truth to the rumors that Bill Daly told them to try eating Duff's Xtra Hot wings instead. Finally, millions of fans from around the world will tune in to see the Blue and Gold.. or is it Black and Yellow (I dunno, I can't tell anymore) play what will assuredly be another completely motivated performance with Sabres players doing everything they can to get thrown out of a game so they can head to the locker room and watch the game on TV while cracking open cold cans of Iroquois, the new beer from Community Beer Works. "Head Coach Mike Yeo sips the new Iroquois beer from CBW. Declares it's the best thing on ice in Buffalo." For the rest of you... the game starts at 7, no reason to not tune in before you head out for the night at 7:15.
