Boston can clinch tomorrow which would officially eliminate the Sabres from the playoffs.
I think you meant to say: The Sabres could clinch a playoff spot with a Boston loss tomorrow.
-
Isn't it that if he gets 30 minutes, it counts towards the free agency thing? He got 33 minutes, so I think Murray would be OK with it.
Too bad Hackett would likely garner little attention, if any at all, if he hit free agency.
-
Hackett starting out blazing hot as expected. Could end up being the CHL MVP.
-
Steroids could cure this problem. Just look what they did to Barry Bonds.
-
I hate draft lottery systems because it means you have to get Lucky to improve your team. They don't do it in football and it's worked fine for decades in the NHL.
Funny you should say that.
-
and so it begins.
-
I'm fairly certain the tank is going to bring more fans in than alienate existing ones.
I'm (as usual, for some reason) also with Blue. Furthermore, it is as yet undetermined whether an intentional tank of this magnitude is an act of sheer incompetence on a massive scale. It hasn't been proven to work... yet.
Two words for you: Mario Lemieux.
-
Too bad their misfortune occurred after the trade deadline. We could've got a king's ransome for Neuvirth.
-
We need to ride Lindback all the way to the final soiling. In fact, I expect the Sabres to earn shutouts from here on in.
-
Yep. Let that sink in. Someone held onto Mitchell for too long.
I'm not going to worry over 3rd and 4th liners, especially 3rd and 4th liners on the Sabres. They're a very special type of NHLer. Seriously, we're not missing much and if we are, we can re-sign them this summer.
-
I wonder why they didn't just package this trade with the Flynn one?
-
Our two starters:
Johnson 3.08 GAA .889 S%
Lindback 3.71 GAA .875 S%
Great, looks like GMTM may be able to flip Johnson too!
-
Dreger says it's a third at most. Can go down, not up.
No, at most it helps us get McEichel. This is great. True Tank Commanders in net now.
-
So he's the Coyotes own personal Rasputin, or perhaps Cardinal Richelieu. How nefarious indeed.
I concede. Darcy is running Arizona.
He's not running Arizona per se, more like he's infected Arizona.
-
So what does Maloney do? Did he take the past month off? Is it Darcy's show in the desert? I can't buy that an assistant GM is running their franchise.
It's called influence. No one operates in isolation and the guy values Darcy. But, I do have another quote for you, from the same article, for entertainment purposes only:
It's also likely Maloney leaves Regier holding down the fort with the Coyotes at times so Maloney can get out and scout more often than he's been able to the past few years. -
Why is darcy getting so much credit around here? He's a glorified scout. Unless you read this board, we make him sound like the VP of hockey operations. Surely he's in everyones ear planting seeds for tank ideas! Surely he's behind it all!
Horse ######!
Regier's duties will cover the entire hockey operations department – from working with the team's minor-league affiliate and scouting the pros and amateurs to being involved in adding NHL players, dealing with contracts and handling staffing issues."You name it, he'll be involved in it," Maloney said….
Since they've known each other for more than two decades, Maloney considers Regier his closest friend on the management side of the NHL. But this hire wasn't a handout.
"This was all about what do the Arizona Coyotes need to be better and more successful, and I cannot think of anybody better or more qualified and that can help us improve," Maloney said.
No way, Darcy just couldn't have anything to do with the downward spiral occurring in Arizona. Just impossible.
-
Everybody does realize Don Maloney is Arizonas GM? Right?
It would be naive to think Darcy isn't whispering "tank" into one of his ears. He wouldn't have hired Darcy if he didn't value his input.
-
Arizona has a six-straight-home-game stretch starting on Tuesday.
That doesn't give me any fuzzy feelings. I'm worried about them. I would even believe they are intentionally tanking over Edmonton's play.
-
I'm glad it's not that serious. 2 weeks is still a lot and standings can definitely take a dive for the best during this time.
-
Get Well Soon!!!
-
Good for them. Maybe we need some of these girls to lace up for us.
-
Can we counteract this by making a McDavid Oiler jersey?
-
Someone has to do something about Neuvirth. This is ridiculous. Someone send him used Kleenex or something.
-
Anyone else need to have season-ending surgery? Would be a great time to have those pesky wisdom teeth pulled. How about Neuvirth? Time to finally get that in-grown toenail taken care of.

You must love Buffalo sports then, the epitome of mediocrity. Doesn't it get old? You understand this city has never tasted a championship, right?
Our franchise owners have loved this attitude: good enough to keep butts in the seat, but not too good where'd they actually have to spend money on the team.
I wonder if it has more to do with parity. Players never intentionally tank in any sport. And in the NFL, any team can win on a given Sunday. Plus, the NFL doesn't have an annual player sell-off, which can have instant and impressive effects on tanking.
