It's almost like they're not trying their very hardest, until it really, really matters.

Nice win!!!

That's what I was thinking. I feel like the rookie dinner tradition is a dumb one. Some players might really need the money, whereas the veterans for sure don't. Those same players that need the money might never cash the big pay cheque or even get to be on the veteran side of a rookie dinner.

Kuntar played 1 game. I wonder how much of a paycheck he'll have left.

I think I heard the Sabres might be doing the rookie dinner this trip. Makes sense with 2 days off on the west coast. There's lots of tweeners in the lineup right now including Kuntar who just played his first game. Do you think they're all expected to chip in for the bill?

#19 is not a Kredible 1st liner. He just doesn't know how to make a good play.

Dunne is on the PP?!?!

If he needed cash, he'd be better off running a hockey school or something. Parents will pay hand over fist for a trainer that played high level hockey.

Both my kids are on the college path... as their high school culture still plays upon the old adages of a degree being the be all end all. One is in 1st year, one will start in 2027. Both my kids work hard, but it's a supply and demand world and the supply of average college grads greatly exceeds the number of good tradespeople. I've been absolutely clear that unless they're ready to really hustle through school and their early working years, they are not going to have the lifestyle they have now.

I'm in a similar field. Protection and Control in the utility sector. We work on the equipment that makes the lights go out. We don't have any official recognition as a trade, but it's specialized work. With enough experience you can go pretty much anywhere as we're in such short supply.

Where's the double laugh emoji!!!!

F You NHL. Seriously.

Good to hear you're getting rewarded for your time. Keep the eye on the prize!

That wasn't a penalty.

I know it. You know it. The Sabres know it. 0-4 incoming.

Man... That's a lot of time working! Are you hourly? OT?

Anyone else see Power hit the Jets and cut McDavid off? Wasn't a lot of space but still a nice play.

I'd gladly do that for one game in the Chel.

He's going to want the money and will stay. Without question.

If we had decent goaltending, we'd have 3-4 more wins right now... Maybe more if you look at all the OTL's. It's still on Adams though and his ineptitude to address this in 6 years.

This tells me the players are sick of the goaltending. That was anyone's game.

They should have asked us before putting Krebs on the line for the 3rd.

The Greenway 1st line experiment went exactly how we all thought it would go. Funny how the coaching didn't see it coming.

But we will
