  1. We'll see. He's due to get some starts with a very tired team in front of him, so we'll see how he does. I'd be more than happy to welcome him back next year and would even bump him up to 2m a season.
  2. LB will be a starter next season and he deserves it.
  3. Great game to be at as the crowd was really into it. LB gets his 2nd straight shutout and is now 9-1-1 in his last 11 games and 12-4-2 on the season. Somebody is going to pay him to be a starter next year.
  4. Give Atlanta, Quebec, and Salt Lake City an expansion team, move the Coyotes to Houston and water down the talent even more.
  5. 10m over 3 years. Levi in Rochester next year, backing up UPL the year after and hopefully taking the reins the year after that. Samsonov, DeSmith and Brossoit would be other options.
  6. No Vilardi. Dillon is playing tonight after sitting yesterday due to illness. I think Perfetti is a healthy scratch again.
  7. Jets start the 3rd period this afternoon down 3-0 to the Canes and come back and win it 5-3. Brossoit will be in net against you guys tomorrow evening. See you then!!!
  8. I would tell any youngster around here to become a millwright. A 4 year apprenticeship and then you are making about 90k before OT.
  9. Lowry was the right pick for captain. He centers one of the best 3rd lines in the league and is an excellent PKer. He has squared off with Reaves twice and hasn't come out with a loss yet. What I really like about him is he brings it in the playoffs. He is signed for 3.25m for two more seasons after this one.
  10. Long overdue. Some really, really bad decisions by him. I suspect Laine, Texler, Gaudreeau and even Werenski will all be shopped.
  11. Dylan DeMelo would be a perfect fit for Power or Dahlin. Plays first pairing minutes, has a high hockey IQ and is great in his own zone. I have no idea why Chevy hasn't extended him yet.
  12. Laurent Brossoit will be an UFA and he is an excellent goalie.
  13. Selanne had military obligations and regarding trade protection, players can't get that until they are 27 years old or played 7 seasons if I am not mistaken. When is Mitts an UFA?
  14. He's on pace for 70 points this season. 6 x 6.25m is a steal.
  15. 9 games in 15 days isn't that easy, especially the last 4 or 5 games. I think they have won every b2b game this year. I'm okay if they keep playing like this in the playoffs...they are playing playoff hockey right now in my opinion. Bones has done wonders but Tippett on the left coast will probably get it and one could argue, deservedly so. Helle would have done wonders for a few teams around the league. Brossoit has been just as good to be honest. I remember posting that you guys would be wise to pick him up a few years ago. He knocked us out of the playoffs last year and then got hurt but still got a ring. He'd be a good addition on the Sabres and deserves a shot at being a starter. Hoping Levi or Comrie or UPL would turn into a starter this year was asinine and should be a firable offence. Comrie is your highest paid goalie coming in at 50k more than LB. Basically wasting a year of all your good players just like Chevy did with our AHL D playing in the NHL a few years ago.
  16. Not what we were use to here either with Maurice as coach since the beginning of time. Bones has them playing a structured game and our goalies are playing like allstars. Scheif is our leading scorer and around 43rd in the league yet the team is in first overall. Boston, TO, and TO again before the much, much needed break. We've had a pretty easy schedule except for the last string of 9? games in 15 days. Have a horrendous March/April, so I am glad they are banking points now.
  17. If you go one more game back you would have the 5-1 beating they gave the Bruins. They have also let in 3 goals or fewer over the last 34 games. Hellebuyck has let in 2 or fewer in the last 19 of 20 games he has played. He leads the league with a .945 sv%. His backup is in 2nd place with a .944 sv%. They did this with KC out and now Scheif is out. They sit in 1st place overall this morning.
  18. Calgary -31C (-29F) feels like -41C (-43F).
