$45 beers?

I didn't, just after watching the game, made me think it must stink playing in Buffalo. Such a miserable atmosphere.

Still gotta be crappy to play there.

That's what fans do. Go to games. Especially ones that like to say they're the greatest fans in the world.

It must suck playing in Buffalo. How do you get pumped up when fans don't show up. Impossible to gain a home ice advantage.

When economies are bad, prices go down.

Really?

Trade 3 players we don't want and an unnamed prospect? Anaheim will jump all over that one. Come on.

That's not expansion, and would not require the $2 billion fee. That's one reason the league doesn't like relocation.

They will be relocating to Mesa, AZ

How does it make financial sense to spend $2 billion on an expansion fee. Are teams really so profitable that to pay that amount is a good idea?

Yeah, nobody else has ever mentioned that before. And I'm not behind the scene in saying it, kinda out in the open. And really doesn't compare to racist comments, but go on. And was making a joke... but whatever. Brown kids?

Kim was pretty hot , though.

I don't put anything past anyone these days. I have no expectations that anyone isn't a jerk behind the scenes.

I included the upcoming deals in my thoughts. Again, I said i understand, I'm not against it. It just seems odd, but not wrong. I'm not looking to see any deal end really, I like all the players. To me, it's just unusual, but I might be wrong.

I get signing all these players to long term deals, but man, we have a lot of big contracts for a team that hasn't made the playoffs in forever.

You should try to watch him more. He's dynamic. For his skill and age, he should be at the top of the list.

I heard this last week but couldn't find anything on it.

His enthusiasm for the games during our recent drought was amazing. I don't know how he did it. I could barely watch at times, he never changed. A true professional.

Living in Arizona, with the time difference, I often listened to games while driving home from work. While his dynamic goal calls were legendary, sometimes we lose sight of the fact that he was a tremendous play by play announcer, in the most traditional of terms. To be able to listen on radio and understand exactly what was happening in the game is underappreciated until you are in my situation, where you depended on Rick to let you know exactly what was happening in the game. I always thought he was great, but my appreciation for him grew immensely because of that skill.

And they might not. Have they ever been great yet at any point?

That 3rd line looks pretty weak. 4th line nothing special either. Yikes, I hope I'm wrong.

Then we can trade him for a first round pick.

Free speech!!!!

He misspoke.
