This is a great Ted talk about how and why athletes do better over time. I can’t help but think it might apply here, though I totally admit I have no evidence. We all know that goalie equipment got way better from the early 1980’s when Bob Sauve was playing. That made goalies better by the 90’s. Just wonder if the sticks shooters are using have also taken a recent bigger step forward. I know they have gotten better in the past but has there been a recent step forward in stick technology? On top of that, has training in shooting improved? I know baseball players have programs for biomechanics that improve them, hockey players surely must also

Good god

No word on who is in the crease?

Oh, he wasn't that drunk

Mule, the guy tied with Zucker and Quinn for points, the guy who is ahead of our "top center" Kulich in points and second in defenseman scoring only behind Dahlin? Ya, he contributes to the O!

We are not trading our young defender. How many people hated Samuleson?

Ruff blames Kulich on the ot goal

Come on boys

It's McCleod!

I believe that's a Confederate Uniform. But the 100th New York regiment was from Good old Buffalo https://museum.dmna.ny.gov/unit-history/infantry-1/100th-infantry-regiment

Just one more

https://www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/2025/10/28/vietnam-america-halloween-trick-treat/ Holidays are windows into a new culture. When my family arrived in Texas 40 years ago, we learned this firsthand as new immigrants. The adults loved Thanksgiving, a day of gratitude centered on food and family, but for us kids, nothing compared to Halloween, a night of knocking on doors and getting candy, sometimes even a homemade cupcake, almost always offered with a smile. A year earlier, we had been living in Vietnam, where food was scarce and trust even scarcer under communist rule. Even as children, we knew to be cautious; anyone could be a spy for the government. Yet here, strangers handed out treats, and all I had to do was say a few words, a phrase that didn’t fully make sense. Other sights and sounds were equally puzzling. Toilet paper draped across trees — what for, and why waste something so precious? And pumpkins carved into jack-o’-lanterns — food used only for decoration? Having lived through severe food shortages under a communist government’s disastrous agricultural collectivization, I couldn’t fathom such extravagance, or that the pumpkins I was familiar with could grow so enormous, meant not to be eaten but simply admired. But most unsettling were the skeletons. In Vietnam, where ancestor worship is woven into Buddhist culture, the bones of the dead are treated with solemn reverence. A few years after my grandmother died, her remains were exhumed, the bones carefully washed and dried, and reburied in a family plot among other relatives. This second burial was meant to ensure that the dead found a lasting peace and could continue keeping a protective watch over the living. In America, seeing skeletons dangling from porches, some in silly hats, some dripped with fake blood, horrified me; the idea that they weren’t real and were merely decorations, casually accepted by everyone, was completely baffling.

Ya, I guess.

What to do with this guy?

It's about the tariff. If you travel over the border with three goaltenders Trump's tariffs increase by 50%. So it was a cost saving measure

Could be. The mind does strange things to the body under stress. I'd keep Ellis over UPL. One thing I just love about Ellis is how he plays the puck. He is like another defenseman back there negating a lot of forechecks. I use to HATE playing against goalies like that. He even makes first passes out of the zone really well.

Ya, Florida beat the crap out of Vegas and Ottawa crushed the Caps. Sabres, Senators, Islanders, Maple Leafs and Flyers all with 9 points with Bruins, Blue Jackets and Rangers all just a point back. Every single point is so important. Blowing a third period lead to a division rival really stinks

Damn Maybe UPL's last game as Sabre?
