NHL players basically praising him effusively and saying how brilliant he is when it comes to hockey...yeah I'm good with him. I think the Sabres could win a Cup within 3 or 4 years with him here...this would be an absolute awesome hire.

He is a hockey guy first and foremost, he just happens to be really successful at lots of other things as well.

He was so well respected in hockey that the day he was fired in Edmonton, he was asked to be a consultant for Team Canada and their Olympic Hockey Team. He oversaw Southampton's return to the Premier League and their best ever finishes in the league. He coached Team Europe, a collection of players from "other countries" to 2nd place in 2016 in the World Championships, losing to Team Canada in the Finals. He was named to the World Economic Forum New Models of Leadership Council. Here is an article talking about how he brings success pretty everywhere he goes...prior to his foray at the World Championships in 2016 and management in Southampton,which happened to be the most successful finishes the team has ever had in The Premier League(6th, 7th, and 8th twice, before 17th this year). http://www.themanitoban.com/2014/03/international-man-of-sports/19821/ People like him "just figure it out" in regards to how to be successful because it is what drives them.

Kruger seems like one of those people who you could literally give him a job doing anything and he would figure out a way to be very successful at it, even if he has never done it before. Those type of people exist and it shouldn't be discounted. Some people just understand how to succeed in general in any situation and understand how to achieve a desired result.

Wow...more major surgeries...this means he is out for all of training camp and pre-season most likely and could miss some time into the regular season as well...

Redhouse on Broadway and Transit does awesome work... went there because I know a few people with tattoos from there and I really liked how they looked.

Really? Dahlin and Eichel seem to be pretty damn good prospects

Based on what he did in a few games at the NHL level...he looked like he belonged

Olofsson looks like he is going to be well above 37 points

I thought it was just OK. I liked Infinity Wars much better. I felt the first 45 minutes really dragged and could have been condensed into15 minutes. Nothing really stood out to me in this one...honestly my favorite part might have been Quill singing and dancing like an idiot.

They dont need it...all they need is to use grammarly, a free plugin...

These women's leagues dont get that the reason they dont make more money or have "real leagues" is to be perfectly honest, nobody cares about women's sports. If they did, they would be drawing big crowds. They don't in high school, they don't in college, and they don't in the pros. If I want to go watch sports I want to see the fastest, quickest, most athletic people on the planet doing things you didn't think were possible. Whether they like it or not, these athletes are men. If I watch basketball i want to see people dunking and swatting not watching perfect layups. Same with hockey, baseball, football, etc... Perhaps women's soccer is the closest thing to actually watching good sports. This is not sexist in any way, it just merely points out there are significant speed, strength and agility differences between men and women that no matter how much women don't want them to exist, they do. If people want to watch sports its to watch the most athletic people in that sport and those are men.

I just got one done...my first one...still healing but I will post it when its finished healing... I'm a software engineer so I got something related to software engineering done...

Except the difference between us and them is that nobody outside that arena cares. EDIT: Not exactly true...NJ had the 6th lowest attendance in the NHL this year.

NJ rating "went down"?? It's a 0.24...I mean it's almost non-existent..so it went down 59% from a 0.58 the year before?? I mean the numbers are so low it's pretty pointless...they barely watched last year when they were good and this year they barely watched again...except almost nobody actualy watched this year.

Should this be surprising? This city is hockey crazy. I think once the Sabres start being good again we probably will double the next closest market. A percentage is still a percentage so it can be compared equally. If they have 20 times more people then theoretically they should have 20 times more viewers right? Clearly nowhere close to being the case. In fact even with their 20 times population, Buffalo still had more actual viewers than the LA market when you do the math.

Goalies were in general much worse at stopping the puck prior to 2000, can't really compare stats like that because its meaningless.

Really? Why not? Dude played in 32 games, started 30 and went 24-5-1 with a 1.89 GAA and .927 save percentage along with 5 Shutouts. Those are pretty stellar numbers.

One of the most amazing games ever...4 OT's and Dave Hannan scoring the goal that took the series back to "Where Jimmy Hoffa is!"

That ship has sailed long ago my friend...the fact his best season in the NHL by almost any metric was his first one says a lot about him, and none of it is good.

I agree...Josh is just such a good person, it's not surprising to see why even the vets had no issues following him when he got here.

I don't care about how good of a coach Laviolette is, I could never stomach him here...I just want to punch him in the face every time I see that smug face on TV

Damn...even when this dude is relatively healthy he isn't healthy...

see the edit I made for an example...we are talking about simply investing in mutual funds/IRAs that are well managaed and have produced these returns on average year over year. The key to long term wealth in terms of investing is investing money each month and leaving it sit there to let the magic of compound interest take effect. On average the amount of money will double every 7 years due to compound interest. You dont freak out about the ups and downs of the market...when the market is down its actually better because you can buy more shares for the same money.
