I wish they would put him in front of the goalie on the PP like Boston does with Chara.

I thought Beniot was worse. I would've benched both. Put Delaurier back on D, let's see how he does.

Did you see the attendance in Florida? Bettman is already putting the Panther's lottery balls in the freezer so they get McDavid.

Those were tickets sold. No way they all showed up. Lots of seats were covered with the giveaway tees.

I expect they will win in Carolina and Florida, because those are games we wouldn't mind them losing.

Shuffling deck chairs on the Titanic.

You forgot to include the Maple Loafs.

FYI, Kea was sent down to Elmira.

I was suprised at how one-sided that game was. It was like the CBJs were on a perpetual power play. The breakout was terrible, continually kept in at the blue line. I'd like to see Reinhart and Zemgus switch lines to get more balance. I expect Strachen to play in Chicago, the D looked small. I fear what will happen when Neuvirth plays, which will probably be in one of the next two games. That game could have been 7-1 if not for Enroth and the posts.

I think the Islanders will compete for a playoff spot, and the Sabres will end up with the 5th or 6th worst record. Just good enough to miss out on the best talent unless they win the lottery.

McNabb played because one of the regulars was hurt. I still prefer the guys we got back in the trade. The Sabres have plenty of D, they needed some power forwards.

It wasn't caught because he entered illegally. It's part of his plan to thin out the white herd. Then it will be easier to implement his Muslim ideas. I read it on the Internet so it must be true.

You know it's bad when the Tea Party thinks someone is too extreme. He didn't consider that they'd come back as vengeful zombies.

Don't forget about Kaleta. Nolan likes him and I expect him on 4th line when he gets back. Larrson will go to Amerks.

With Ott gone, Stewart has become my favorite player after Kaleta.

McCormick will be the 4th line center, which means Grigo will go to Roch until Reinhart goes back to junior or there's an injury. In the long run it would be better for Grigo to get quality minutes in Roch and play on PP.

NATO is a defensive partnership. If one member is attacked then members have to respond. If a member goes on the offensive, there is no obligation to join in. Countries can decide if and how they want to assist on their own. And this isn't a new war, it's the continuation of the war against terrorists threats.

I think Strachan is better than Weber.

Not having their two best forwards tips the ice a bit.

Can we just give Texas back to Mexico and seal the border around it. It would solve multiple problems.

They'll probably keep 7 D, so I expect Strachan to be the 7th who will get occasional games. I don't think Weber is a top 6 D anymore, but they'll keep him for leadership this year and probably pair with Risto. Maybe trade deadline depth for a playoff team.

It won't surprise me if Reinhart is sent back to juniors, in which case: Moulson-Ennis-Stafford Foligno- Hodgson- Stewart Deslaurier-Girgensons-Gionta Flynn- McCormick- Kaleta And Mitchell or Ellis could be the extra forward to plug into 3rd or 4th lines.

I agree with this, but I would rather they gave the A to someone other than Stafford who could be traded at the deadline.

Blame the messenger because the facts don't match your narrative? Read the Senste report that the story is based on.

You mean this disproven issue? http://m.huffpost.com/us/entry/5773476 They should be focusing on important issues like investigating Bengazi for the 15th time, trying to repeal the ACA for the 50th time, and Bigfoot.
