I've seen this set of highlights a few times now and there are a couple of plays were 'wow' is the only thing that pops into my head. I didn't watch much of the Americans in the WJC and when you see the stat line of 1+3 in 5 games it's not overwhelming. But watching the highlights he could of had a boatload more. Guy looks like the real deal. Reinhart was only an A for Canada. I believe it was Curtis Lazar that was captain.

It felt like a brand new era around 930 on Friday April 10th. It's so exciting to be talking hockey again. I was all in on the tank early and actually hoping Murray didn't bring in too high end of players at last years free agency. My God I am so glad that is over and I can go back to being all in on this franchise to win starting today. I saw some of those Eichel T-Shirts in the other thread and told my wife this feels like 2005 again where on a trip down to Buffalo I would want to buy up the entire store. Times are a changing.....
-
This is a good point and I completely agree. Any other team wins the lotto and Buffalo is still the team that 'tanked and still lost' (as everyone but Andrew understands we did not really lose though). With Edmonton winning, there is a league wide hatred for that happening and the focus seems to have shifted there. Not that I really care what other teams fans think of us anyways.

Ya that should be fun for the next 2 months even if there is a good chance it gets traded.

I almost posted but feels like rubbing it in at this point. Two weekends ago is the difference between our board and theirs. I wasn't even stressed about the lottery as Eichel looks amazing. The drop between 2 and 3 is >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>between 1 and 2 IMO. I can't imagine how this week even went for Yotes fans leading up to the lottery. So much pressure.

Did you keep reading after page 6? Man, to think that so easily could have been us. There are Coyote fans in tears tonight. Many fans blaming that late 'meaningless win' against SJ and how they are cursed. The fan base here would be saying the exact same thing if roles reversed. I actually do feel for Arizona tonight.

Proof that tanking was worth it. http://hfboards.hockeysfuture.com/showthread.php?t=1878853&page=6

:w00t: :w00t: Oh that just made my night. FU T.O.

To the contrary. This is exactly why you do tank. Tanking was for Eichel, not McDavid.
-
Exactly, so pumped he will be the face of the franchise. As nice as the number one pick would have obviously been the way the game is called in the playoffs eichel will do just fine.
-
If this lottery pisses you off then just wait until next year. I think it's something like a 50 50 chance the team in DFL picks 4th.
-
This thought has crept into my head as well but moreso because the owner is such a superfan.

Great article on Jack Eichel from just before the world juniors. http://www.thebarrieexaminer.com/2014/12/16/team-usa-stud-jack-eichel-brings-whoa-factor

I don't disagree with this. But I think the Tank was still considered. As in, if Kane was healthy then I bet TM waits until the offseason to make that trade. -
Do you have a link for this. Because Garth from Hockeybuzz (I know I know) is freaking out as to why Eichel won't be there lol

So after being told at my wife's ultrasound a couple of months ago the baby was likely a girl, we had a 3D ultrasound done last night (those pictures are crazy looking) and surprise it's definitely a boy. It will take some adjusting now since I've bought purple paint for the room (luckily haven't painted yet) and a bunch of pink and purple nick nacks for the bedroom. My sister was more devastated than we were. But the Fn Fantastic news is the baby appears to be healthy and developing properly. Really that's the only important thing. Let's hope it continues smoothly for the next 3 months and beyond.

What if Eichel Decides to Return to BU Next Year?

I'll take the over on both. Am I reading this right that Crosby put up 102 points his rookie year?! That can't be right. If so, and McDavid is suppose to be at that level and Eichel not far behind I'm definitely taking the over. I get it was a different era right after the lock out but still...... -
We can actually debate this now. Has it not sunk in for anyone else yet? Let's hope to God whichever phenom prospect we get lives up the hype.

Hahhahaha, my wife was in the room when I made the change and she laughed her head off for probably 20 minutes. I lost a bet, and this is my new avatar for the next 6 months (picture was chosen by Wildcard).
-
I'm excited I get to use this avatar for the entire offseaon. Thanks alot Wildcard. Still so worth it......
-
HAHAHAHA at work on mon I'll make the change. As agreed, I'll keep it till opening day of next season. Well worth it!! Ps you bastard lol I saw some other financial bets thrown around here.....
