Contempt

@Sabres Fan in NSThis is why I'm critical of the meaningless shows of support. Call it the "thoughts and prayers" movement. It does nothing. 14 more elementary school kids plus their teacher died in Texas today to another 18 year old with a problem that had nothing to do with them. Tshirts and meaningless gestures do nothing. Nothing. Take actions to create immediate real change or sit down.

It's a way to say look at me I pretend to care but Im not going to really do much of anything of meaning. And net proceeds is different from proceeds. It's net proceeds. If you want to donate money, donate the full cost of the shirt directly, cut out the middle man, and forgot the LAMP moment of wearing your memento of this moment. The Pegulas care. They don't care enough to decide not to siphon 800M dollars out of the community, but they care. They care enough to donate their margin on a t-shirt.

33 percent is bad?

Choad on choad crime

And that sentence is more entertaining and interesting than anything Dan Dunleavy has ever thought of.

I think he might cry. I bathe in his tears.

This is a mistake IMO. Great as Vasilevsky is I don't think they can hold them out for a whole period of this and the Loafs will pull Campbell soon to add to it.

That would be an interesting logo and third jersey

I'd pay to watch Wayne drink Bissonette's punk ass under the table.

I know it's not the same, but in the NCAA that would be an instant 5 minute major and a game misconduct. NHL, we debate about it.

Oshie switched to it after his father, who was from WV, passed.

I find it interesting that Zibanejad wears a letter and Kreider does not. I'd also like to see how much longer the verbal from Kreider went on after that.

You pay, you get.

I had to mute it.

Fair enough

I agree, he probably won't. Re: Hart it's just a feeling I have.

Maybe not a public domain song

Don't you already have paint to watch dry out there?

When you hire an idiot, expect an idiot to show up to work.

And Campbell looked totally out of his depth last time out. Which team is more likely to keep the other to 3 or less. I say Tampa. If I had to put the money on the table right now Tampa +105 and over 6.5 at -165 look like the plays.

Good luck painting racing stripes on those Clydesdales

When people talk about weaponizing cap space this is what they mean. If Florida is making this move they are paying us to take the contract. 4x10 isn't ideal, no. But his actual cash number drops the last two years of the deal and the NTC changes as well making him more attractive to a cap floor team those last two years if you want to move him again. In theory, you'd also have Levi in net by then on his ELC which is dirt cheap so you'd have 2 goalies for an AAV of what? 11 million? Maybe it's still not the right move for us which is fine, I just see a move to be made there by someone and if you don't demand salary retention you're likely to get more than Bob back. The bigger trick would be getting Bob to agree to come to Buffalo with his full NMC. I'm not excited about Husso or Comrie as I think you'll have to overpay in both years and dollars based on their actual resumes. I think the RFAs are pipe dreams unless it's a trade because nobody sheets anyone and what are you really willing to give up for Georgiev? I don't see the logic in paying a soon to be 38 year old MAF a bunch of money on a multi-year deal. Keumper is going to want money and term both and is already 32 with a long injury history. Halak isn't coming here. Martin Jones isn't an upgrade. What are you willing to pay Brayden Holtby? He's a backup at this point. A good backup, but still a backup. DeSmith? Francouz?? IMO, the Sabres need a player who can step in and play competent #1 GK for at least 2 seasons if not 3. Levi is in college this year and will probably get at least 1 year in Rochester before he comes to Buffalo. The 3rd year gives you some buffer if Levi is slower to develop than we'd want. MAF isn't going to give you 3. I'm not sure he's going to even give you 2. If it were me I'd be calling the Flyers on Hart. Philly has a long and illustrious history of giving up on goalies too soon and Hart struggled a lot this year. They were absolutely putrid this year and I don't honestly think it would cost that much to get Hart out of there. I might be wrong, but I think the bloom is off that rose. Offer the rights to Ryan Johnson or Erik Portillo and a 2nd and see what happens.

Does FLA move on from Bob if they get bounced early or if they sit him and ride Spencer Knight? I also think Carter Hart is very available for not very much. Philadelphia is where goaltending goes to die so you'd have to have some faith that you could rehab his game and confidence.

Is Dave Andreychuk's restaurant still across the street?
