Dat's dat.

Quite a game. Back to Montreal for the Habs to regroup.

boy, the Habs imploding this period.

Gotta give Vanek credit. He really is great standing in front. There is a reason why he's traditionally given the Bruins fits.

That's actually good news for Buffalo right now. If only slightly, it will narrow the offers for free agents and make trades more likely too.

I think that will scare people away.

Outside the 5 because Nylander moved in. Draisitl still appears to be an exceptional talent to me. I'm not sure if Nylander should be there myself.

I only watched the highlights, but Armia has one hellava quick release.

I'm betting Brad Park is better remembered in Buffalo than Boston or New York. Not that that is a good thing.

That's right. Finally an end to the question everyone needed answered. :lol:

Great. Now the rest of the series will be about booing national anthems.

......... :ph34r: ........

I hereby nominate him to the Hall of Okay Sabres 7th Defensemen. Nolan Pratt will give the presentation speech.

"Thanks Dad!!"

He'll be back. Certainly not the right fit for Vancouver. I think he'd be an excellent coach for a team such as Nashville, however.

True.

I don't think St. Louis gives up a low twenties pick to sign Ryan Miller in the window.

Lots of head scratching over Batista. My take: He's a generalist. Learning the organization and waiting for a Harbor Center. Just happy to be here. He'll be much more about organizing the bottom of the organization rather than the top.

Gretsky's vision trumps Lemieux's reach. But it is Mozart vs. Beethoven. They were both masters.

Ouch. That one still pains me. That one hurts me the most. I physically felt that one.

Needs Harry Potter specs.

In the event of an racist rant that persists longer than 4 hours.......

Do the other owners have the right to not do business with Sterling? The threshold for kicking this guy out was pretty high, but he managed cross it. I guess I'm not one to believe that what 30 owners with lawyers decide are really indicative of any trends in America. Sterling will be forced to sell to the tune of half a billion dollars. He'll get by.

:lol: I remember those old Milk Cartons...they had either a pale red almost orange or a pale blue ink on each half-gallon carton, and we'd clip them out for family.

I honestly couldn't name 10 players in the league today. The one I can name I know personally. :lol:
