I won't argue the stats or anyone's opinion but what I have trouble wrapping my head around is if he's as bad as some of you are stating why does every coach and GM for that matter continue to give him all the TOI he gets and with my eye test he gets the majority of his time against the other teams top lines?? Instead of playing a role he's best suited for is he trying to do too much to break this losing binge the team has been on during his entire career?? What I'd like to see is what were his numbers like during the beginning of last season when we were winning compared to what they were when the team as a hole went to crap. What percentage of throw it off the glass and out came when the team was in their own zone for way too long and he was just trying to get a line change?? Plus if he was so bad with this, why didn't any of his coaches start to cut into his TOI as punishment. I actually like the guy and I hope they don't trade him unless they come out ahead in the deal. I don't think I could stand another ROR deal.

I hope you were penalized for that elbow off the table, you could be held accountable for cheating with proof Mr. Wyld!!! ??

Found out my bone marrow biopsy and cat-scan results were negative for Leukemia and cancer............. YEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSSSSS

Dang, I thought it was this

^^^^^ I know that's not really funny but I raised 3 kids and that just seems like a very parental thing to happen. I remember one Christmas my wife's aunt came by to visit us when my youngest son was 2. He liked the taste of toothpaste, so when he found her Ben Gay, he thought it was toothpaste and ate 1/2 the tube. Sat in an ER for several hours that day having him tested for aspirin poisoning and having to drink every few hours some charcoal tasting drink to counteract it. HooBoy that was a fun Xmas. @Brawndo hope everything goes well.

Don't feel bad @WildCard it's killing us old guys to, I'm quoting Dylan and @New Scotland (NS) is quoting some Dead Poet nobody heard of. The epitome of Dead Poet's Society I guess or should this go in the Dog Days of Hockey thread??

So something is happening but you don't know what it is....... Do you Mr North

Does this help explain why??

Dang, is @Brawndo on vacation??? Must be too small a trade for him to bother with I guess.

McDavid Crosby Kucherov Barkov P. Kane Burns Marchand MacKinnon Tavares Gaudreau Burns scored over a point a game as a Dman, I don't know how he doesn't make the list.

Where's @Wyldnwoody44, if anybody knows for sure, it'll be him

Well that was the point although not made well apparently, their list on who they'd give up and who we would want most likely doesn't have any matches. Now Kempe with the Kings for Risto is a deal for me

It wouldn't shock me but who would be coming back?? I just don't see anyone we'd want

UFA, it'll also end when Dahlin becomes an RFA

Dang, really sorry to hear/see that. As they say life's a birch and then you die...... Or something like that ?

@New Scotland (NS) Will these help??

I don't remember either, it may have been "valleyboys"

I'm in again, things can't possibly go as wrong as last year

The best stuff to ever come out of WNY

Maybe on a 2 year deal, no way for 1.

Mine's Kevin Hatcher and Ken Dryden, I guess I need to get my will in order

If @Brawndo hasn't posted it yet, nobody knows anything.

See now you got me rolling, I guess it's like the French Army Rifle that was on sale at the gun club. Never Fired, once dropped.
