If you have a choice, I'm with Bio - "conscious sedation", which involves virtually no consciousness is the way to go
Enjoy your evening -you'll be a firm believer in baby wipes VERY soon

I suspect that by now any updates from PA will be "posted from my mobile device"

The night before is SOOOOOOOOO bad, I was shocked that on the way home the next morning I felt great and enjoyed a nice lunch with my wife. NO after effects at all!
Frankly, the jokes are simply part of it -you can look forward to having your doctor report that you are a perfect a$$-ole"

I find the definition of "generational player" interesting.
I never thought of it being the player who define san era - I always thought of it as a player so great, you are lucky if one comes along in each generation. If it is merely the best of an era, frankly you are simply talking about someone who belongs in the hall of fame at the end of hi career. If, as I believe, a "generational player" is someone so far above the other's level of play that thy might only come along once n a generation (generally defined as every twenty years) then I think since I began watching hockey in 68 or 69 you are talking about Bobby Orr and Wayne Gretzky.
Yes, you can win a Stanley Cup without a generational player as I see it because a Cup is won annually and I don't think there is currently a "generational player" in the game. n the other hand, having grown up watching Bert go end to end was ALOT of fun and he did help us play in a SC Final

I agree with nfreeman.
I like the idea of an OHL game in Buffalo if they simply want more seats for an Ice Dogs home game, but to have the Sabres, as an organization, hold a press conference is absurd
-
It's almost impossible to beat a full time player who didn't score for an entire season.

Isn't that Northrup Knox in the upper left, behind Capt. Smith's hip?
-
To me he has an Isles pedigree in a god, 4 cup winning way) Not a Pens history. I guess it's an age thing

Any red blooded male who was around when Carly Simon released "You're so Vain" thinks it is a great song!

Headline says 8 years, but the linked article says Kane and Toews each signed 5 year extensions for $31.5. Can't tell whether it is 5 or 8

RIP Guy, and thanks for posting 716. Like a few others, I learned to love hockey watching the "Pepsi -caps" from the Aud greys. I remember being confused/sad that we were losing Trottier, Villemure and others just because he Sabres were coming.

Can we now get the Earl of Bud into the Buffalo Hall?

Thanks Numark - I was most interested in the contract status I was just wondering about Fasching after reading that e signed Deslauriers
-
I've got to agree that "Thank you Sabres" and beating the Soviet Wings are unbelievable memories.
My favorite goal was probably the OT winner in the Forum in the 75 semi-finals - we were coming home to vanquish the Habs!
Favorite game I attended was watching Schoenfeld beat up Cashman - in the Zamboni entrance, Orr & adnais in the same game his rookie year
-
You could also get 1/2 price student tickets at Tops in the nosebleeds. I remember going to Braves games when the greys were the highest seats. Dr. Jack made that team special in his time as the coach

28 in Memphis, TN. I did see a single digit 9 on my car thermometer for the first time in Memphis a couple of weeks ago!

I don't know about Nichols-Timon, but I recall a Canisius-St. Joe's game in the late 70's played without fans because of the extracurricular activity involving both fans and players at the prior game.

We need young talent before we need to fill in the veteran leadership, which will come through FA, if I understood Murray

Enroth and Hackett next year and the management team will know what needs to be done for future goaltending needs.

The 71-72 Sabres won only 16 games, the current Sabres are on pace to finish with about that many wins. I don't see where rebuilding means you have to suck, through 9 games this team seems to be moving further back instead of forward.
When does the rebuilding start ? At some point you have to remove all the wrecking balls before you can start rebuilding.
One difference between this team and 71-72 is that tie games no longer exist. Under 71-72 rules this team is still officially winless!

Great job - especially loved the Earl of Bud at the end!

Great thread.
I'm currently reading "Cold Mountain" -- civil-war-era fiction recently made into a movie. I'm not far into it but so far it's very good.
If anyone needs some lighter vacation/beach/pool reading, I've just read a few books in the Joe Pickett series by CJ Box (murder mysteries set in Wyoming with a game warden as the protagonist) -- pretty enjoyable.
I've also recently read "Freedom" and "The Corrections" by Jonathan Franzen -- outstanding contemporary US fiction.
Finally, if you're interested in really well written short stories about the immigrant experience, I recommend any of Jhumpa Lahiri's collections.
I read almost no fiction, but I read Cold Mountain when it first came out. A wonderful read - Charles Frazier put together such beautiful language, that I have never seen the movie for fear of having the book "ruined".

I reread Zen last summer - a wonderful read
Currently reading The Ice Balloon by S.A. Andree

I was annoyed he upstaged Farrah the day he died... I just can't believe it is still in the news.
It is clear that MJ couldn't handle living in a world without Farrah and his ticker gave out as soon as he heard she was gone! I know my adolescence would have been different without Charlie and his girls.

Congrats PA
Sound like you are free for 10 years - or is it 5 because of the family history?
