  1. Ya a shot to the heart
  2. Only 1 more game after today before a 2 week break Prob told him to get an early start
  3. Better be careful: all of his numbers are a direct result of playing with Dahlin This is why you have so much value in a guy like Dahlin
  4. Everyone hates the team and now they can’t be stopped lol Can’t write it I’m telling you, this could be it
  5. Not to mention his past comments on situations like this make it all rather damning And therein lies their one chance for a true Run
  6. One of Adams biggest failings has been his head coaching hires Doesn’t want to BE HERE?! we gave this beer leaguer 30 million dollars because he teased the fulfillment of a leadership concept in our minds he should be thanking the sabres on bended knee
  7. I will say: this is it. This is their last chance to pull off a miracle they need about a 10 game winning streak for sure, they have 3 right now, chance for first 4 gamer. If not now, when they’ll absolutely never be more motivated, after getting lambasted in the media at both ends, it’s never if they can push this streak to ~ 10, I won’t turn the lights out Today is a must, must win From a certain point of view
  8. We’d still finish 4 points short lmao that’s 89 If we wanna get to 93 we need to go about 23-7. or at least a bunch of loser points. And that’s if no one else of the 32 teams ahead of us also go streaking it’s not over. But it’s over. Ya know? 8 regulation losses in next 30 and they are through
  9. It’s also funny that they clearly believed the excuse plausible solely based on the fact Samuelsson is always hurt
  10. The fact they probably did that to justify their lack of response is embarrassingly par for the course like congrats, you fooled me! I thought he was playing, yup
  11. The only way it can be shaped into a positive is if they address the roster reflective of their record over 82, and not as if they are “really” only their good stretch if you only supplement the team based on the latter, the team will only be good when it’s at its best, again. But it’s not about peak: it’s about a balanced roster to endure the waves of a season
  12. Should be the Utah Yettay
  13. How are they in the other 2 zones? Forwards also play transitionally and on defence - last I checked it was the defensive metrics of our F that suffered, not so much their offensive mark Stone isn’t elite because he scores 60 points he’s elite because he’s incredibly hard to play against and puts up 60 while doing it
  14. Coach said he was good. He must be playing or they’d have at least kept things vague enough so as to influence the league on a suspension imo
  15. That C core isn’t gonna do it
  16. This could help them, in all seriousness. It’s a shame that in all likelihood it’s probably too late it make it this year, but this sort of stuff can give athletes enduring chips on their shoulders
  17. I think we win too 4, finally, would feel nice
  18. Oh I thought the plural of mammoth was mammoth Even weirder name And my mistake
  19. Ironic I missed that I suppose but then again I was thinking NHL
  20. It’s a parity olive branch in a league where half the teams make the playoffs and we REFUSE TO CAPITALIZE ON IT In the words of Jack Eichel, “HUH?!”
  21. Of course You can call the players whatever you like: but they aren’t stupid. They aren’t stupid enough to believe a mandate of playoffs if they have even a base understanding of the cap mechanics of the league and why a cap was instituted in the first place
  22. When I can tell you that only 2 of the last 160 teams that spent as we are right now have made the playoffs, when one can present that kind of data point, there’d need to be some strong evidence presented on the other side of the equation detailing those moves that Pegula is making, these transactions taking place that evidence the franchise being treated as a toy by the owner actually asking: what are some moves in the last 5 years that you can prove were made because of Terry operating as the GM? I don’t mean prove in a legal sense, just like literally some examples of draft picks made or trades made where the impetus was Terry’s analysis as an owner-playing-GM, and not transactions influenced by the imposed budget “well we can just guess at it” doesn’t work very well when I have concrete proof of the lack of spending, and concrete data on what that leads to
