I completely agree with this. I'm not as sure as some that he's an NHL center. Although I'll be the first to admit I am wrong and hoping that I am. He'll definitely be on my radar to see how he does. He has the skills I just don't see the explosion in his game. Again I'm hoping I'm very wrong.

Bogo for Myers 2.0??? Not that I'd be totally against that but I haven't yet decided what type of Dman GMTM covets. Is it the Boston model of big, burly defensive minded guys or a Stars model of fast and agile. Hamilton numbers look enticing but why would Boston give up on him at such a young age and then Calgary after just over a year, why are they shopping him. I haven't seen enough of Flames games to give you an honest answer. I've been concentrating my non-Sabre games to the Ducks and watching Fowler. And my opinion of him is say what you want but they aren't going to give him away, he is possibly their best defenseman.

All of this is true and bad habits are hard to kick once you get older. Salt intake is a big contributor to high blood pressure although far from the only thing. There is a lot more salt and sugar in your everyday diet than you might think. It's not just the extra you pour on your foods

I agree less smallish and more wussiness is his issue.

Or maybe he's not quite the star you envisioned yet. Young player, still needs developing, still needs to learn the trade in the NHL, who woulda thought that???

Nice post LTS, the impatience on some of our brethren is almost funny if it wasn't a blame everyone but their favorite player crescendo.

Fact is he was terrible in the first 2 periods of the Vancouver game also. Nice comeback in the 3rd period but had too many turnovers in those first 2 periods. Coaches job is to occasionally jump on his players who are not performing, jump on Des..... nobody notices besides Des, jump on one of your star players, everyone gets the hint including Sam. Plus it's not quite a demotion moving to center between Ennis and Girgs. Actually a promotion for those 2 guys and deservedly so, they showed some spark the past 2 games. Should be a winnable game because the Flyers play tonight in Montreal so catching them on a back to back where they have a longer travel day than us should be a help.

Sooooo Reinhart? :angel: I've been watching the Ducks games to see how Fowler has been playing. Don't kid yourselves, he's not coming cheap even if he's the one to truly get moved. He's arguably the best defender they have right now.

I had the same issue last year. When ATT bought out Direct TV, I switched over so I have the best of both worlds plus I have free GameCenter until early November. Its no different on NFL Ticket either. The game in your local area is blacked out on it also. I guess they are protecting the commercial rights of those Networks.

Welcome back Mr. GDT man :worthy: :worthy: :worthy: :worthy:

PSSSSST PSSSSSST, CT FAB you are not supposed to be in here. I think nfreeman had WildCard start this thread to get all the hormonals in one area so he could finish up the fence. Shhhhhh don't tell anyone I told you. Now lets get outta here. :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: :wacko: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

Same here, in fact they are even better On Demand because they take out all the commercials. Being in Texas there is a dearth of hockey talk so even at their worst, they are a good listen.

They're playing in Calgary aren't they??? Wildcard have you abdicated the GDT starter role???? Dude, you were the all-time best at this, tell me you aren't the ex-gdt starter now...... :cry: :cry: :cry: No intended slight on you Mr. High Ankle Sprain :thumbsup:

My memory glands may be warped but in my mind Jerry Korab was as good or better than Jim Schoenfeld. What he's doing in the discussion of top 10 Sabres of all time, I have no clue. I wouldn't even have him in the top 5-10 Dmen of all time, popularity maybe, skill wise, no way

I have a Roku3 and I haven't had an issue with it. Picture is better than ever and I did start a game late and was able to start from the beginning but it was one of the preseason games. So far no waiting to load issues either. Watched some of the Islander-Ducks game before the Sabre game started, no issues there either. In fact I was surprised NHLTV had the game at all because it was also on NHL Network which usually then kills the live version. I could only take so much of Michael Jackson (the look-alike) before I switched over to the MSG game.

Or that Bogosian was bad, he was a +3

Thank you, my good laugh for the day has been taken care of.

Girgensons TOI got cut way back right after he didn't help his Dmen on either Oiler goal. He was late getting back on both if you watch the tape. After that he only played in spurts and I'm guessing he missed an assignment. DD also played the ROR and Larsson lines multiple minutes in the 2 period and for good reason they were both outstanding in that game. Foligno for all the bashing he receives on this site, really plays well with Larsson and Gionta as the old vet knows where to play off both of them. That line was really impressive this game

Actually I put the above posts on nfreeman, I told him to put up the dang fence, but does he listen........ NOOOOOOO

Bad luck goal

Great start to this game

Hormonal, that's all I've got to say.

Maybe instead of the bolded you could have said gain some chemistry together. Better yet maybe you could install a fence around the cliff so the hormonal wouldn't jump off of at any type of preconceived notion they have with the lineup they want that the coach doesn't comply with.

"It was the only way I could think of to get Sam to do my laundry..........I hate doing laundry"

Least disruptive lineup going forward This will keep some type of continuity on the team Ennis-ROR-Okposo Kane-Girgensons-Reinhart Foligno-Larsson-Gionta/ Moulson-Grant-Des Fasching Coolio-Risto McCabe-Bogo Gorges-Franson Nelson Lehner now becomes even more important than before Girgensons gets his chance to show what he's made of
