  1. If you have to give Toker a start, make it Edmonton.
  2. He gets to plead his case. It wouldn’t look good to suspend a shoo-in MVP (what Leafs fans are chanting) is what his team will say.
  3. My wife got us tickets to a Leafs-Sens game in a few weeks. I think I’ll wear Sabres gear to get under Leafs fans skin.
  4. He’ll get 34 hits with his own purse.
  5. That would be a deal breaker for sure. If they sign him and Levi they need to at least split the Rochester net and have the odd call up for the hotter hand.
  6. My wife wanted my son and I to go but I didn’t want to be surrounded by thousands of Leaf Blowers. The atmosphere of the 2008 Classic was awesome because I had never experienced being around so many Sabres fans.
  7. These 3 guys must realize what an opportunity they have. There is no 26 year old stud ahead of them in this organization. One of them can take the net and be the man for 10 years.
  8. Hope you are right. I am telling all the Leaf lovers that it should be an easy win for them as they are Cup favourites. LOL.
  9. Yeah, I see him a lot. He can skate and has a hard shot. He is not big but is stocky and doesn’t shy away from physical play. The OHL year off hurt development but he came out of the gate strong and had a letter despite having never played a game in the league. Ryan Ellis had a lot of success in Windsor and WJC. Nelson will be in the CHL Top Prospects game, his first real coast to coast exposure.
  10. Yeah, he wins a few draws but he struggles with basic tasks as you say. Even on the PK, he gets in lanes but he lacks quickness to pressure opponents and he cannot win a puck battle. He makes me wonder if he is capable of icing the puck let alone clearing the zone. He is one of the worst players I have seen that gets a regular shift. I don’t know what DG sees. Jankowski brings more in my opinion. We have had whipping boys in the past like Stafford, but he produced a lot more than Eakin.
  11. Olivier Nadeau 10th in QMJHL scoring, 9th in goals.
  12. I’m not dreaming that big, but would like a good pick from the trade. Vegas has been going deep every year so it would be great for them to miss when the Sabres have their 1st. Fans would feel KA got good value for Jack.
  13. If Edmonton gets their s*** together they could bump them down while Nashville and Dallas are close with games in hand for the Wild card spots.
  14. That is footage from the desert isn’t it?
  15. Leafs lose to the Desert Dogs in OT. Go get ‘‘em Sabres!
  16. The boys played a pretty solid 60 minutes. Great win, the crowd was into it. Tuch with a huge hug with Anderson. Genuine respect there. Let’s build on this!
  17. Lehner sent back to Vegas to have a LBI checked out. Brossoit and Thompson are their goalies for the next while. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/article/report-golden-knights-goalie-lehner-sent-home-from-road-trip-for-further-examination/
  18. That is the same cancer that Lemieux had. That is a big risk alone, then throw the Russia factor in. I would stay clear until the third round.
  19. Sam Cosentino just released his March list and had him at #2. Olympic bump.
  20. Quinn is an upgrade over Eakin, Bjork, Hayden, Hinestroza, Asplund, Jankowski and Krebs right now. He should be on the starting lineup in October. He will get stronger this summer and the only thing the AHL can do for him is help with his defensive game, which is not horrible and is not as critical for a winger.
  21. With Cozens and Hiney.
  22. OV tied Jagr for third place with 766. Jagr hosted that Czech league game at O2 in Prague yesterday. Proceeds go to Ukrainian refugees. I bought some virtual tickets to help out. The NHL donated $68K. I was a little apprehensive buying stuff with my credit card with Czech directions but got through it.
