  1. Hoping someone can clarify. I know Wright went down on a conditioning stint that was allowed for something along the lines not having played x amount of consecutive games. Savoie’s conditioning stint is obviously a biproduct of his IR time, but will be still be able to use a Wright-esque excuse to do a second conditioning stint down the road if needed?
  2. Didn’t Kane post the best USNTDP numbers ever? I don’t think they are comparable as prospects. I know you’re speaking more to their sizes, but I’d be surprised if Benson has a higher hockey IQ than Kane did at 18 to help him stay slippery.
  3. We’ll be serious about winning when we’re in black and red every game.
  4. Hmmm Tuch sticks up for Skinner. Skinner scores then makes a great hard nose play to get another apple. Love Krebs, there’s not a player I want to have more opportunities than him.
  5. I’m having difficulty finding it, but I’m pretty sure the center with more career face offs typically wins about 60% draws. Our draws should get better year over year from this alone.
  6. And the real question is:
  7. But a lot of people DO ***** it up. Was he responsible for their greatness? No. Was he good enough to sustain them and possibly make them better? Probably. Look at the transition from Daboll to Dorsey. If Dorsey is Housley level at OC are the Bills better? Is that indicative of a good coach? Im not sure. It certainly doesn’t make him a bad coach. It definitely doesn’t make him a great coach. But it probably makes him a good coach at a specialty.
  8. Oh yeah, I had an absolute blast. But there were people then murmuring about the underlying numbers and being negative Nancy’s about the overtime wins. There’s many more now inclined to believe in mirages now.
  9. This board would be x10 worse if the only change to this season was our record to 3-1. It would be shades of 5(?) years ago when we went on our early run.
  10. It’s an insult to Gretzky’s supporting cast to call them a supporting cast. That team had 6 HoFers not counting Gretzky.
  11. Matthew Barnaby won us a playoff game
  12. I’ve had solid wings at maybe three places down south the last 13 years. If you walk into a wing joint in Buffalo you have a much higher chance of good wings than if you walk into a bbq joint anywhere I’ve lived down south.
  13. Housley was pretty consensus “next young coach.” His work in Nashville was pretty great. Maybe Peca will learn a thing or two from him in NY.
  14. Why? Vinegar based sauce sucks. Charleston has a few good spots. Haven’t been impressed with Nashville. There wasn’t anywhere too special in NC in my experience either.
  15. Sam Reinhart was great in front of the net and half the board hated him because he would sometimes fall down
  16. I just go to Fat Bobs. I thought Brickyard burned down?
  17. It shouldn’t be a big deal to lose 15 games of NHL experience.
  18. How long of a leash should Donnie have? This can’t be a lost season.
