Hoss

He wouldn't have gotten half a season and I've NEVER thought Crosby was anymore whiny than the next, but Shaw would've absolutely gotten a more significant suspension if he hit a star player like that.

Six minutes into the game and the Sabres twitter account just tweeted it's hockey time. Our social media manager is the worst.

Indeed. I need sleep. Or a day off to break this trance I'm in.

The Charter revisions in Erie County were agreed upon today. Four-year term limits for Erie County Legislators was nixed from the agreement. Let's do it again in ten years, everybody (aka the next time the Charter revision can meet).

Three preseason game suspension for Shaw

STEVE JOHNSON

Guys, Nashville was pretty fun and easy to root for last year AND they got PK Subban this offseason. How cool is that? Good for him and good for them. I hope they're the team lucky enough to lose to us in the finals.

This officially closed the door on me having any interest in hearing from Gary Johnson. He's nobody to me now. Good day, sir. Also, so Hank doesn't go on another insulting rant and call us all frauds, an African American was shot by police during a drug raid in Niagara Falls tonight. Unclear if the man was armed or the circumstances around the shooting. I have zero opinion at this time as I have no facts outside of "man shot during drug raid in Niagara Falls." The man is still alive at the moment. He was shouting "why did you shoot me" as he left the scene, so he was at least able to do that.

Agreed on Baptiste. Bailey and Fasching are a few steps ahead of him, in my eyes. Only one of Fasching/Bailey can make it, methinks.

We barely knew ye

Eichel likely won't play Thursday or Friday. Kulikov likely to play Friday.

McKenzie's actual tweets: ANA/BUF using Morgan Rielly (6 x $5M) and Seth Jones (6 x $5.4M) as comparables for Ristolainen/Lindholm. Clubs want them in that range. Ristolainen/Lindholm are pointing to Aaron Ekblad (8 x $7.5M) and not saying they expect exactly that, but are aiming for $6M+, $6.5M maybe.

Dats my number <3 (Born on the 16th day of the month so it stuck with me) That and my favorite athlete (Vince Carter) along with my brother who I looked up to wore 15 and I wanted to be one above them. Can't forget Peja Dats my number <3 (Born on the 16th day of the month so it stuck with me) That and my favorite athlete (Vince Carter) along with my brother who I looked up to wore 15 and I wanted to be one above them. Can't forget Peja

Can we get the HERO charts for Eleven's library?

404 Not Found was one of the better players for either team tonight

Sorry to be a let down, but I was mostly just enjoying shooting the with some hockey fans. A few thoughts: - Grant and Moulson were the best non-goalies wearing blue and gold told - Lehner was very good. - McCabe was impressive. - Ennis satisfied me. Looked fast and confident with little hesitancy in his game. - Baptiste seemed to be easy to miss at times but he had a few moments that really caught you eye. Hard-working kid. - I literally don't know if Foligno played but if he did or didn't he did a poor job of playing or not playing - Fasching was using his body well but wasn't noticeable otherwise - A lot of these kids were playing it too safe. Take a few big swings! Three Fan Jersey Stars of the Night: 3rd star - Home white Perreault jersey (good, clean A+) 2nd star - John Scott All-Star Jersey (last year's AS sweaters should be some team's full-time kit) 1st star - Jean Dupuy Soo Greyhounds (that's some dedication)

Looks like I'll be there tonight. Good to get back. This season snuck up quick.

In the first at-bat any player has had for the Marlins since Jose Fernandez died, Dee Gordon hit his first home run of the season. Gordon was one of the closest people to Fernandez. Jesus ....... unbelievable.

JJ: that small part of my post was sarcastic but not in the way you interpreted it. Of course I know they were elected. And yes, they have as much impact and opportunity to push change as other officials they stand with. BUT, my point is that the change they want and NEED is change they'd NEVER get through the white political filter. The change they need is significant. On how prevalent I think racism is: very prevalent. Blatant racism isn't such, but blatant racism isn't where it ends. Covert racism is rampant and more dangerous. Better the devil you know than the devil you don't. I don't get my thoughts from the media. I was at least semi-racist growing up because I grew up in a poor household in a poor white town in the middle of nowhere. Blatant racism there was as common as air. You could prompt it if you wanted any proof that it existed. It wasn't until I started being able to think for myself that I saw these problems (my political views started heading this way around 12 or so). Today I get my opinions based on interactions I have with those actually impacted and hearing from those who are educated and experienced.

My guess is McCabe would be involved for sure. McCabe, Girgensons, 2017 first could be a ballpark. I would do that deal. I would try to find a way to get them to take Moulson since Trouba and Risto's new deal would tighten up the cap. Then you likely try to flip Bogo for a lefty and sign a depth forward to a one-year deal.

Let's rev this mother up McKenzie: "I absolutely believe Buffalo would have interest in Jacob Trouba. But not if it means giving up Ristolainen." #Sabres #NHLJets

There are still 13 games left this year but so far it wouldn't be hard to beat what Taylor has done. He gets $15.5 million next year if he isn't cut. There's an option after the second year, too, but 2018 becomes partially guaranteed if he isn't cut this offseason. Time will tell if he's worth keeping around. My mind is still fully on draft QBs.

Risto has officially not reported to camp

I took out the tongue-in-cheek stuff that nobody needs. I do, but I'm on mobile and it takes too much time. Sorry about that. :D
