  1. He doesn't appear to care this year either. Last year he was all heart. What happened?!?!
  2. Dahlin doesn't try. Yes, he's our best player and we have no one to replace him, but I'm running 5 F's next PP.
  3. Other than cheating like crazy, I don't see the upside. Rivet went off on him a few weeks back and I agree. Toughness- no Solid D play- no PP QB- no Skating- not really Shot- hard no His only claim to fame is cheating and being out of position enough to the point where he ends up with more points than a more responsible defenseman. Yes, he's young... But unlike Dahlin, he didnt immediately come into the league. Given he has a small fraction of Dahlin's skill, he needs to spend more time in the Dan Girardi school of defense (speaking of which, what has he done to help this team?!?!) rather than think he's the 2nd coming of Bobby Orr.
  4. Let's get a guy who's serious about success.
  5. It really is mind boggling. Between that and his "I've fallen and I can't get up" approach to flurries in front of the net, it makes me wonder how anyone decided he might be an NHL goalie. Is it coaching or just a total lack of mental discipline and combined with zero athleticism?
  6. Sabres come first, but if they're 💩'ing the bed I could easily be convinced to watch the Bills given it's pretty much do or die.
  7. We've learned there's no need to tune in Saturday.
  8. A friendly F You to anyone who said take Girgensons over Okposo. We got them both, but 35yo Okposo has actual hockey IQ. Girgensons is skates, a motor, and not a lot else.
  9. Someone tell me why Joker is sitting tonight.
  10. Here's the team relative expected goals. He's about mid-tier on the team, so his defense must be satisfactory. Analyzing the stats further though, we all know he's completely incapable of providing any offense, so what is expected by a normal defenseman wouldn't be delivered by Samuelson. In 5 on 5 shooting talent he's 6th worst in the league among D. Edit: The question is though, is he consistently getting more tough matchups vs the other D men on the team? If so, he MAY still be playing up to his contract.
  11. Faceoffs matter guys: As I type this we're up on them at 57.4%.
  12. Dec 16, 1121pm: I am now officially listening to complaints about sacking Granato. This team needs accountability. There was zero effort tonight. Zero pride. Zero respect for the fans that are watching. Bring in someone to crack the whip on these guys.
  13. Dahlin doesn't care either. Rivet ripped him last week, and everything he said I agree with.
  14. I wonder how last night goes if EJ plays? It'd be nice if we could platoon him and Clifton until the end of the year. It'd be even nicer to get an upgrade on one or both of them and sit them until the end of the year. If only a GM could be so quick to admit where they went wrong.
  15. He does not need the money. His father is worth at least a half billion dollars.
  16. Nice having a goalie that gives us a chance to win.
  17. Can't understand when players that big are wired so soft.
  18. UPL would still be getting up from the ground on that last Levi save.
