Sharp played for the Flyers before the Hawks.

Got rid of Staal.

Just dreaming here but in an unusual year like this the league should have a lottery for all of the non playoff teams for Arizona’s forfeited pick.

This discussion makes me want Beniers that much more. They hopefully feel the same and ensure he is their pick. May have to make some moves on the draft floor.

COVID has led to fewer eyeballs on him this season, which is a good thing. Hope there is a bidding war between a few teams. He can be bundled with another piece (Irwin) to provide playoff depth and bump up the return a smidge. Weak draft and contenders are picking in the 20s, I believe KA can get a first and a young player.

In the best on best tournaments Canada often fields 8+ centres for the 12 forwards. The Sabres have some Dmen in the pipeline but picking one up especially if they acquire extra picks would be good too.

Three in the same game and I like their chances.

A lead....baby steps.

He also traded for Sheary and Erod. He had won with Sheary a few years ago in all fairness.

Ullmark looked good last game, giving me hope that he can steal one. This is the night, git ‘er done!

Or Miller.

Staal gave an interview with Sportsnet a few hours ago, where he talked about his season. Nothing we haven’t heard or thought. https://www.sportsnet.ca/nhl/video/staal-outlines-went-wrong-sabres-season/

First thing that pops into my mind is Messier going to the Canucks, as captain, and missing the playoffs for three straight seasons. They weren’t plugs though, Mogilny, Bure, Naslund, Linden, Jovanovski...

Yeah, it’s not like baseball, where getting top talent at a few positions can create a top team. Those guys only need to mesh a bit for defence, and even that is pretty straightforward.

Cassie is good. JBot’s sister Jennifer is on the intermission crew at HNIC. She is a much better public speaker than him. Bieksa had a line about the Sabres in the second intermission. Even Tony Robbins couldn’t get these guys to win. Sad state of affairs.

Just got in from working in the yard. Sabres with the lead, maybe I should go back out.

The snow is gone, I need to pick up a lot of dog poop.

Staal will be asked to provide some of dis and some of dat over there.

I just hope they don’t flip him to Carolina for a second and a third. Happy with dat return though.

Cody Ceci looking like Bobby Orr vs these guys.

Sheehan that needs to get out.

I thought Hall played in the playoffs with the Devils in his MVP season.

Jarry looking like Hutton.

Lousy passing and no one getting open to receive one. They end up just dumping the puck out most of the time. This is uglier than I watched last time.

Toker! Aah sh..
