I am quite liberating. But eleven just isn't my type. ?

Bump. Another weekend of AHL games. Please tell me the young man looks to be finding some confidence.

Their record is not a reflection of the *better*. They where playing a much gritter heavy game and look good in those games. If the Sabers don't jump on them early and squash their hopes it will be a long night.

That is an NHL caliper second line. I dare say top 20, most certainly not top 10. It can lead us to meaningful games in March. To watch a meaningful Sabres game in March would be awesome. Baby steps....

Brawndo is making me feel all warm and fuzzy on a cold winters night with this talk. It's that or it's late and I've enjoyed a nice jigger of scotch.

All star weekend.. meh. No hockey, when we could have an all rivalry weekend during the greatest void of sports on tv is something only the NHL is stupid enough to do.

So that is the 6-7 million range based off of points? Be crazy not to sign him.

Have to believe they are playing him to up his trade value. He had no trade value coming back from the injury. He most certainly is not helping his cause to get another contract at his current play level which in turn keeps is trade value at a near zero. The only real assets to his game at this stage in his career was his ability to be physical on the opposing forward and sound positional like one would hope from a seasoned veteran that's lost a step. He shows neither of these traits in his play. He seems to have a mentality of *just don't get hurt*.

Bogo got motivated/involved/inspired when he got face planted into the boards by a good hard check. Not sure if he felt fragile after coming back from the injuries and that is what it took to get him going? He must have a fear that another injury ends his career no matter how small. No team will pick him up unless he finishes this year healthy. Just seems like the passion came back into him after that hit. I hope he finally got back on the horse.

As we continue to climb in the standings that stat becomes very meaningful.

That's worth repeating. ?

Close game and a questionable penalty is called. Lazrar Larsson Frolic Girgensons The 4 forwards that turned that penalty into a win.

He's got an old chicken hat he isn't using.

First time ever. The first sweep since they moved to Dallas if I'm correct.

Still rather see big John.

That's awesome! In all seriousness, does it take much to coach an All-Star game?

I must have miss represented myself. I don't want him. I don't think Gallant is anything better than what we have and would argue not even as good. But if he has been let go for all the wrong reasons and other GM's feel he is an upgrade he may be a hot item and is getting calls.

As bad as the Sabres have been on the road coming away with a point is a huge win.

Or you strike when the irons hot. If he's a hot commodity and he is getting phone calls he's a busy man.

They where at Lockheed Martin in Texas doing a show on the Lightning when they had a 2 second flash of a guy with a Bills hard hat on the assembly floor. Slim chance but had to ask.

If you wear a Bills hard hat at work you may have been on the show Extreme Engineering on the Discovery Channel.

He was marginal at best and being out for a year only makes it that much tougher for him to get another chance. The NHL will move on from him.

Anyone here know anyone else in that picture?

Believe ?

For all we know he was doing fine rehabbing and it and it looked promising then BAM! All went to the big red down-under. I'm sure he's not thrilled. I can only assume that a player in his position doesn't make it through something like this and become an NHL regular to often. The injury will heal, but the league moves on.
