  1. Looks pretty solid to me. If anything he has a habit of too often going for the highlight reel play - that pass to no one yesterday was, without an ounce of hyperbole, one of the funniest/most terrible offensive decisions I’ve ever seen, considering how much space he had. He couldn’t have seen anyone there, no one was close. Clearly doesn’t need to worry about the fancy play as he has the skill to do what he did right after. if I had to pick which of our forwards is our best F in 5 years, I’d pick Quinn
  2. As always the truth lies somewhere in the middle, yes
  3. Ouch i think we eventually spend more than them, though, just through extensions
  4. The answer to all those questions is yes. That’s the only way the hypothetical works. *of course* the nhl’ers would steam roll them if you levelled the playing field. They are some of the best hockey players, relatively, of all time. the whole point of it is to do it “as is” and athletes today are simply bigger, faster, better why are all the Olympic track records from today? Re set every year? Hockey is just immune? athletes today are better specimens, full stop, that’s it, enjoy your day
  5. Well that seals it. College team with ease
  6. The idea that simply doing in nothing in goal is an option is certainly reinforced by the fact if one even *mentions* how poor the GT has indisputably been, posters will swoop in with the “well, NO goalie could have done well, it’s the D!” The outright refusal to admit its both. They can’t even allow the goalie point to be made. I think there’s actually 2 ways to look at Friedman’s report: it’s not about whether Adams *intends*, full out, to buy time with Levi and he’s already made up his mind. No, I’m sure Adams is OPEN to other moves. But we already know this. We know he was “open” to signing Ullmark, he attempted to add a different G this past summer - the distinction is the price he was willing to pay to do it. He wasn’t willing to break his evaluation, there wasn’t going to be an overpay, the priority was the future so we’d only add in the now under ideal circumstances it’s not about if KA is planning to start Levi. We know he’s going to give him every opportunity - and we know he’s “open” to a move elsewhere. it comes down to how willing KA is to prioritize that move, should it become necessary. If KA ardently sticks to his thing again, he’d happily take the lower expectations that come with, anyone would it’s not, “will he or won’t he”, if he doesn’t upgrade in net, even going on 3-4 years, it’ll be “what could Adams have even done?” But in reality, fixing GT is going to come down to how much he truly values it being fixed, for this coming season
  7. He shot it into Anderson lol
  8. Already deleted dude
  9. The Sabres are 0-6 in the last 6 games in which Dahlin doesn’t register a point. Dahlin has no points in 6 of the Sabres last 7, before today. So, 1-6 over that stretch Dahlin scoreless in 5 of HIS last 6, coming in to today. due?
  10. Skinner absolutely destroys leafs guy with cross check to the back into the net goes both ways
  11. What a truly horrible play from Quinn followed by a great one
  12. Win a draw challenge
  13. Averaging 2.14 goals per game in March
  14. Tuch is quick down low
  15. Even after parting ways with Boosh Gotta live by the power play here

  17. I like how our best players are still waiver wire pick ups. Tried and true
  18. that one is on Tage
  19. Power clear. A good clear
  20. Power’s helmet. Always tilted
