Worrying? I doubt that's the right word.
It seemed fitting to me that his 50th was into an empty net.
I could be wrong, but I'm going to bet that if someone offers him a big money long term deal they will regret it much like Calgary regrets Huberdeau.
This conversation comes up with various players on Sabrespace about players needing linemates to succeed. Reinhart to me is the perfect example of that sort of complimentary player who can succeed at what he does with the right linemates, but not really on his own.
As for spending our time better, maybe we could debate whether Byram is any better than Montour. That might be fun 🙂
I don’t see a Huberdeau situation happening with Sam in the slightest. Sure, he isn’t going to be a PPG+ player for 6-8 years, but I think his style of game ages well. He’s a net front puck hound with crazy hand eye skills. As his skating declines you continue to increase his O-Zone usage. Similarly to how Vanek aged well for what he was, I think we’ll see the same for Sam, only with increased production.

He’s also a UFA. Probably going 95% in an 80% league.
I really like him but it’s all downhill from here.
This is almost always the case once a player hits the open market. Team control is a helluva drug.

I voted for Zemgus. I don’t have anything against the guy, but I’m almost positive we can upgrade the position at cost or cheaper.

From what I’m reading, Buffalo will be right in the middle of the eclipse which is probably why every hotel in the area is booked up that day, again from what I read/ heard.
The flight prices are also insane

The Shohei Ohtani story is bonkers.
The weirdest part is how both Shohei and his interpreter initially copped to Shohei having wired millions of dollars to pay off "the interpreter's" gambling debts. Mmm hmm.
Then a day later, Shohei does an about-face (maybe the interpreter does as well?) and says that the money was actually stolen from him.
The
simplestmost scandalous explanation is that these are in fact Shohei's gambling debts and the interpreter is just a fall guy. If that truth were to come to light, this could end very badly. If dude was wagering on games that his team played in, he'd have to be banned for life. The guy's currently the greatest player in the world and could have a chance to contest for being the greatest of all time. Incredible.Until the FBI presses charges on the terp, it’s a cover-up.

The difference is that Reinhart wants to be there. He didn't want to come to Buffalo and he never consistently put forth full effort.
This is a boldface lie. Prove any of this.

Oh, I thought we were taking about Dan Bylsma.
I was making a Bylsma joke because we were saying the same thing before he was fired a decade ago. You were right.

It would be absurd to bet on Levi to play 30-35 if missing next year truly isn’t an option. But I’d still probably be more surprised if they add a backup: Adams made an even riskier bet with Levi last summer, don’t see why he’d balk this time around when there’s a better likelihood of success
I would be shocked if Levi wasn’t the backup next season. I would be even more shocked if it turns out the right call in any way, shape, or form.

The heroic shuffle to the 80 point threshold continues.
Disco Dan needs to go, this isn’t acceptable.

Where else can you fail at your job for four straight years with zero quantifiable progress and remain employed?

Well it’s the Caps who are the problem now they’ve just beaten Vancouver Carolina and Winnipeg in the last week.
Washington is winning because their studs are on fire when they needed them most.
OV is at 26 goals now. 8 goals in the first 43 games.
8 in his last 5 games.
Its over. And we need to seriously ask how that team is doing what they are and we look as painfully mediocre and inconsistent as we do.
If only Ovi for Miller went through

Where did you get kicked out on the Parkway? I worked there for 11 years and don't recall kicking out anyone named "#freejame"? 😃
Then again, I did retire in 2016...
We were at Devils Courthouse in the Andrews area. I used to live right off the parkway in blowing rock as well, I’m not sure what area you were working.

Blake Coleman would have been a good, albeit overpaid, signing.

This will be the second time I’m in the path of totality. It’s fantastic. It was overcast where I was last time and it was still an incredible experience.
My advice—however big of a deal you think this is, it’s 10x larger. If you have plans to go somewhere, get there earlier than you think you need.
In 2018 we tried camping off the blue ridge parkway and were kicked out from our spot at around 1100 PM because NPS “wanted everyone a shot at a spot,” along with maybe 20 others. We returned at 4AM and there was probably a crowd of 50 and most of the parking spots were full.

What’s crazy is most people here believe we’re talking about a salary range of probably $6-8m for a couple of players away from the playoffs. Remind me how far below the cap we’ve been?

For having constant top 10 picks, the pipeline is actually scary bad.
When you need your prospects to rescue your big club that tends to happen.

These threads are fun. No. There is no savior next season without a trade. But even then, there are multiple holes. You will need not only a savior but a bunch of disciples too.

If I remember correctly I made my first post speaking out against the Must Win crowd in 2019 (to great pushback). My crusade has found home in its own thread and can now be seen in most GDTs by many different posters. If we do not stop with Must Wins, we will never make the playoffs. It is up to you jabronies that are holding us back to decide if your fun little game is worth the pain and suffering it causes.

WOW. Season since 1960. 64 years.
The PSL concept should be illegal.
But how will the billionaire get back the money the public didn’t give him????

He's on cruise control with the Bills selling out but at what point do you tell your owner of a failing hockey team " It's all up to you ". COO is a business manager and he can only do so much if the product is substandard.
The Bills fans I’ve talked to aren’t happy about PSLs. We’ll see how many losses to the Chiefs it takes for there to be no more good will.
