Gonna get more personal than I like to online, but this one is eating at me.
About 10 years ago Dad had a pretty aggressive melanoma removed from his chest. It wasn't a small deal. it had started to spread. Dad is/was a chronic sunburner. We are of northern European lineage, and accordingly light skinned. I've had my share of sunburns too. So..... around mid July something popped up on the back of the base of my neck. Didn't think much of it at the time. I did manage to scratch it open at one point. But when it "healed" it healed funny. Kept it on watch for a couple weeks. Last week I called my doctor to get it looked at. Saw him on Monday. He said it may be nothing, but being there for 2 months now it needs to get evaluated. So..... calling dermatologist offices to get this thing biopsied. the absolute earliest appointment I could get in the entire Buffalo AND Rochester areas is November 30. 2 more frigging months. The place nearest me can't see me until JANUARY! I have told every person that I spoke with that this is a cancer evaluation, not a cosmetic issue. Best I can get is put on a waiting list if people cancel their appointments.
You gotta be kidding me. Needless to say, there is a good bit of worry at the Weave house until this thing gets looked at. We both know how quickly skin cancer moves. it's difficult to not get dramatic about this.
Is this health care in America now? ###### this.
Hope its all good man!

...and he can score too!
No goal, puck was frozen

With the Franson move, I'd say last year is officially irrelevant in Buffalo.
Since February we have turned over the coach, plus 13 players — more than half our roster:
Nolan — Bylsma
Stewart — Kane
Stafford — O'Reilly
Mitchell — Eichel
Flynn — Larsson
Hodgson — Reinhart
Kaleta — McGinn
Ellis — Legwand
Myers — Bogosian
Meszaros — Franson
Zadorov — Pysyk
Benoit — Colaiacovo
Enroth — Lehner
Neuvirth — Johnson
I can't recall that significant a turnover for the Sabres — ever — and most of those are clear upgrades.
Who knows if he will be successful or not, but thank God for Tim Murray.
I'm officially excited about this team again.
Time to get this season underway.
I'm printing this post and putting it on my fridge! It can make me happy every morning! B-)

You and Newton have one helava arm.
And if I was in space and threw the ball it would go really far! But my body's gravity would pull the ball into orbit around me.
-
Here's what I know. When I throw a football and it arches back down to earth, its making the same motion the moon is. The moon was "thrown out" from Earth, or was flying by or something, and has momentum but the gravity of the earth is also pulling it in, so its own momentum combines with earth's gravity to keep in going round and round.
Edit: Oh ya, my football and the moon are also pulling on the earth, just like Newton's apple was pulling the earth towards it, too.

The home games are pretty much must win games at this point.

He has to have a good year or he will be a victim of numbers on this team

I just finished a book on the Eisenhower presidency. Good book, interesting, cold war stuff and McCarthy and all that, but the one thing that really just jumped out at me was how cigarettes were killing Ike's generation. He had a heart attack and stroke while President--he had been a heavy smoker--his best friend had a lung taken out and died shortly after and other he knew were the same way.

Four years left at $5 a year?? That's horrible. I hope his contract does not become a problem
-
I loved the old Air Raid siren some places use to have
-
Larsson is our Marcus Kruger. Really happy he'll be around next year.
Yes, I like this. I just hope he accepts his role.
-
Not disagreeing, but it's funny that last year the blueline was the area of least concern.
We've basically traded Zadorov, Strachan and Benoit for Pysyk, Colaiacovo and Donovan, so it's not like its been gutted.
I didn't think that at all. The defense was THE problem, IMO
-
I had a great session last night at the Harbor Center. The teams were so lopsided that the other goalie was practically asleep in the net and I got shelled for quite a few goals. But I loved every minute of it. It was the workout I needed and there's nothing more fun than making an acrobatic save on a breakaway or a two-on-none and hearing the other players go "OHHH".
I've never played goal and can't ever see me doing it. You guys are nuts! Lol
-
I really hope there is no trade. Just see what this team has this year and plan B starts again next Summer. No reason to rush and get rid of future pieces right now.
I can live with that
-
Every voter but one sees him as a franchise defence man.
Which, by default would make him the best Sabre defence man ever, since we have never had a franchise defence man.
I never thought of that before! I don't think Risto will be Duncan Keith of Tamp's Hedman, but still a very good player
-
I really don't mean to make light of the situation, but does anyone know if Canada practices the same brand of celebrity/athlete "slap on the wrist justice" that we do here in the States?
Not with DWI, this is serious. Canada really cracks down on this.
-
No wonder he isn't doing interviews! I've had a bad feeling about this guy from he start! :doh:
-
He hasn't done one
That's not a good sign...
-
No way they play 2 rookies on a line together. Either Reinhart or Eichel will be on O'Reilly's wing to start the season I would assume.
I was thinking have them two on a line together with Gionta centering. That'd be fun!
-
I'd be surprised if he was back on the team. Good player but injuries and the numbers just don't look good at all for him
-
Ok, a fight by two guys that will never make the team
-
Bailey with a sweet goal!!

Larsson should replace Moulson as a sure roster spot, imo
