I missed you Rob, so much.

He has a knack for cleanly lifting sticks. I hear the loud crack of his stick even on the TV feed.

I disagree with the bolded. Reinhart is said to be a mentally tough kid (and I believe it). If he does get sent down to Roch, it isn't a big deal. I'm with you and Liger on this, though. I'm very happy with Reinhart playing a sheltered role on the Sabres. He's already been pretty good on the PP so far.

2015 draft, what a freakin' treat for the league. Too bad McDavid is in Edmonton.

It's amazing how much his skating has improved over just 1 year. It's deceptive how quick he can be.

Better than she has been in a long time, actually. The second fall was very bad, but she's made a full recovery (she can walk as well she did before the first fall, even better, maybe). We let go the woman who let it happen, and we were able to hire a much better caretaker to share the load with me. My gramma turns 89 on October 26th and she's still physically going strong. Today, she and I sat in the backyard and watched the sunset through the forest and I played her some music. Things are going well and my mother is much less stressed about the day to day care.

I slept for 15 hours straight last night. Good weekend :)

To the bolded: nice. Saying that DD's handling of the lines fits into the bigger picture of GMTM trying not to make the playoffs (or being ok with not making the playoffs) is, to use a naughty word, silly. And I still don't know what it has to do with the players only meeting. I believe all the line juggling is Hot Daniel's way of doing science and trying to find player combinations that work. He wants them to work so they can have success this year and make the playoffs. You're right that winning is not priority one, development is. But trying to win and trying to develop a team are not mutually exclusive.

I haven't celebrated a goal like this in over 3 years. And now I've done it twice in one week.

Did you see me on here at all? :lol:

Brought up losing on purpose. Or *ahem* not trying on purpose? Shame. Shame. Shame.

No that's some other elderly lady that hangs out with my cat.

I think this is just what Foligno is. A decent 3rd liner with flashes of more here and there.

I was able to eek out a victory with AP, Charles Johnson, and Jordan Cameron all not playing. Well... AP is the only one of those 3 who gets points anyways. Devonta Freeman continues to single handedly keep my team relevant.

I'm sorry Hoss, that's tough as heck. Sucks to have a problem with no solution.

Did you just try to name the Sabres' eventual cup winning core and neglect to mention ZEMGUS GIRGENSONS?!?!? What is the point of the bolded here? There should be and is criticism of the team/coach so far. But some people are already drawing conclusions... which is loony.

I love me some Moulson. 1st game: terrible. 2nd game: ok. 3rd game: good. Hope he can keep it up. Having Eichel feeding him would certainly help. I hate Foligno with Eichel and Kane. That line doesn't possess very well, but they're still decent in the offensive zone because they're so good at retrieving the puck. Jack. Eichel. Oh my goodness. It'll be interesting to see how this squad matches up on the road. I'm scared. Larsson continues to be a beast.

I have been away from the board for 2 days and this happens? PA and OP, I'm disappointed in you two.

Just finished watching the game. Heard about today's game when it was already half over. Doh. Reinhart played a really nice game. I didn't even mind having him on the 4th line between Deslauriers and Legwand because those guys can play hockey. The lines were juggled A LOT. Lindy would've been like "woah" Whenever Larsson and Zemgus were together I loved it. Those guys are impossible to play against. Moulson looked better being centered by Larsson, but we'll get the most value out of him if he plays with Eichel. Oh well, maybe some day. Eichel looked just solid today. Battled well on the boards and slowed the game down a few times when it was desperately needed. Agree with all that want to see Kane off his wing.

And yeah, that was a pretty big 3 missed tackles.

And a couple 9 yard runs according to the play by play chart.

Nope. They were OK at best against the Giants. How many 10 yard runs did we give up?

Wow. They played well against a rookie QB. They have played well in 60 percent of games so far.

Oh. My. God.

Tyrod gets hurt/shaken up and then we target him in a trick play. Are they kidding?
