  1. There’s an election next year and if Hochul plans to run she’s going to need every single WNY vote so that’s something to consider.
  2. There’s a video of it happening. You clearly see a guy in the background gesturing toward the mascot and shouting to get his attention. I don’t know his overall motive. Probably to tell his girl he went to high school with Dinger. “We go way back, watch this.”
  3. Very puzzling that they let it get to this point.
  4. I think chances are high there hasn’t been a conversation about Eichel in days. These things don’t work the way we think they do. It’s not teams calling every single day seeing what wiggle room they can find on a deal. Both sides know what the other side wants and is willing to give. Until a side is willing to make a big step forward in talks they don’t continue. We see it in the way GMs talk about big trades often. Diggs is a good example. Beane said he made one phone call around the trade deadline to see what it would take and both sides agreed the price wasn’t a match at that time. Then the offseason came and Diggs tweeted a hint that he wanted out, Beane made another call and the deal was made shortly after. These things aren’t like politicians hammering out the finite details of a bill. It just takes two sides who know what the other want coming together motivated to make the price work.
  5. Cancel culture almost always misses (though it often targets people who never faced consequences for actions they should have) but this isn’t a case of cancel culture. Nobody was ever targeted or named because nobody knew. It sounded brutal but became clear pretty quickly what was said. The team should’ve done more investigation before saying anything.
  6. This dude is one of the worst team reporters out there. He seems like he has zero connections despite being there for decades. (That’s not a statement on what he’s saying I just hate seeing him pop up)
  7. I was walking in the Walden Galleria when he retired suddenly which feels like it was forever ago to me.
  8. No, I don’t feel like taking the time to google specifically how many points certain players had. We both know there are some.
  9. I legitimately don’t believe there’s a single veteran in the NHL who has other options who would want to be here.
  10. Why today or tomorrow? What’s the significance? There are plenty of 20-30 point defenders who are far better than many 80 point forwards.
  11. I think you’ll find our views on Power aren’t too far apart, I’d just be happier about our assumed outcome.
  12. I just watched Tenet and I was reading through Liger and dudacek’s discussion like one of them was going one way in time and the other was going the other way in time but I don’t know which way in time either poster was going. That’s basically the plot of the movie, if you’re wondering.
  13. The Expected Buffalo boys are stirring this one up quite a bit
  14. Power is currently our best prospect and would remain so if we acquired Krebs.
  15. I don’t think they’re getting that much. I think it’s one piece too heavy.
  16. The fanbase wanting something to happen is not the bar to set for professional sports franchises
  17. Jeff Skinner makes nearly that much
  18. Been there three times and always enjoyed it. Haven’t followed nascar for probably 15 years but the races are a unique event.
  19. In general I agree they should be receiving best prospects with ease but one team’s best prospect is much better than the next. If I were in the Rangers position there’s no way I’m trading Lafreniere for Eichel. There’s very few players I’d trade a guy like Lafreniere for.
  20. As a whole the Rangers prospects and pieces are all overrated except Lafreniere but he’s not going to be in the deal. Kakko needs to be in this deal even if I’m not incredibly high on him. I saw a comparison of he and Barkov at this point in their careers and Kakko actually has the edge so that’s the track you hope he takes.
