none of it is really hard. It comes down to who is shooting more.

Even more than that he deserves the return of Mystery Science Theater 3000.

That's one backed up cat.

Yes, but most of America was dubious about a standing Army at the time too.

My biggest surprise is really Franson. I knew he was slow. But he is really surprisingly slow. So that's my biggest surprise. Franson is a three-toed sloth skating with a 120 lb pack, uphill.

He's really playing well IMO. The passing, the smart plays, controlled aggression without being stupid. Even though he scored a weak goal last night, he's been playing much better than his numbers would suggest.

Love it. Duck Season/Rabbit Season. :)

EL CRUSHO'S Back Baby!!!!!!

Jack is really backing teams off with his skating. Although Franny the Sloth made a great shot, Jack created the time and froze the d. Bert could do that. I can't remember any Sabre scoring from below his own goal line. Risto's goal might be the longest goal in team history. I know Harry Neale would have tagged it in feet. And Ocho ends up with some spectacular looking saves, mostly because he's slow to arrive for the play once he's not square. He ends up with more teetering highlight saves in a single start than you'll see from a Lundquist in a season. That said, he's giving the team a chance to win, and he's been smart holding the puck because he's not a great handler. Good to see him get the win.

This makes me want to say the word "moist" or "cluster" The women in my life hate those words. I see nothing wrong with them.

I like Horvat.

dougy stamkos......yah, he's a player, all right. I think i've heard a him.

So, i like getting freaky in delis. Nothing wrong with that is there?

I've been to a college on Halloween. It turns out, as far as I could tell, that a good costume is one that leads to .

I'm really in favor of Net Neutrality. So are most Republicans (85% Republicans to 81% of Dems) The disconnect is with the Republican candidates who are all against it. I'm scratching my head over this. Is it campaign money?

Because of Gordon Lightfoot, I think of Gitcheegoomie when ever I hear Superior. that and "the lake it is said never gives up her dead"

We used to call those elephant ears. He's probably on his last legs. Watching the Sabres from his assisted living facility.

I'd really like him personally. Funny. Warm. Genuine. And because of those things I find him tolerable because of that familiarity. But I've never once thought he was good at the color thing. Jim Lorenz really hasn't been replaced, except for occasional flashes of Harry Neal's old brilliance. But we really didn't get that night to night.

Will this election be about Net Neutrality? Cruz, Rubbio, and Bush all oppose Net Neutrality.

I'll look for you.

So it really is a matter of coaching and depth more than his effort. I don't expect much production from him. But expect some. But he's on the roster to straighten out the room. That's how I see it.

I don't get the Gionta hate. I don't see him taking shifts off. I see a team that doesn't take shifts off. He's not a 40 goal scorer. Gionta for Captain.

Bowman always said, the team that gets the best player wins the trade. It turned out it wasn't Dale McCourt. :)

Nolan let him go.

I see no reason to take sides on this. he was not part of the trade. Kane takes kids to dave and Busters. He's off to a decent start.
