  1. I would be astounded if he was signed to a 2 year 2.5M deal.
  2. For the record, I agree. I think JBot has done a pretty good job. Some mistakes along the way, but nothing too bad. The good outweighs the few minor mistakes
  3. How many people called for him Murray's head? How many were surprised when he was fired? The answer is not enough. I'm hindsight it's easy to see how bad he boned us. I'd say Jame has been a buffalo fan long enough to be tired of all the B.S. because being a fan in the last decade has come with it's fair share. It's made him the ultimate skeptic, which I can appreciate. We need more fans like that to make sure the GMTMs heads roll in a timely fashion. I think the standard is a little bit unachievable though. Haha Edit: Pure speculation
  4. No I get what you're saying. It's just hard to see the merits of your points when I'm one hand you want JBot making moves to help the team win now, but on the other hand chastising him when his failed attempts only cost us a 3rd to a 6th.
  5. Beaulieu wanted out. Take the 6th and be done with it. Give his spot to someone whose ready to let his work ethic earn it. Clif Pu and Nick Baptiste were just traded for future considerations, and you're complaining about a 7th for fedun.
  6. That's the thing that puzzles me, it's like 50/50, each to the extreme. Those wanting him gone yesterday, and those who think he bring leadership and a good presence. Not much middle ground it seems I just it odd
  7. I feel as though he's a defensive liability. More so then any of our other defensemen. Even with his on ice play aside, I'd rather not have him in the dressing room. I don't have solid proof or an article or anything that's just my take. His heart isn't in the game anymore if you ask me.
  8. I would of preferred giving up a 3rd to rid ourselves of Bogo. Maybe even a 2nd
  9. The 3 top 6 centers are the ones I'd be worried about shedding tears. 1 of them anyway. I have to think any deal the lighting plan on making would not entail much of the current roster. So picks or prospects. They have enough deadline cap space to add Risto and wouldn't have to worry about cap implications until the off-season. If Risto is traded for anything not in the lineup making a difference next season, it would be a colossal failure. The players hete are tired of losing, they don't want to do it for another year. These guys are people not robots. (Only top part is directed at you Blue)
  10. I think it basically boils down to, would you trade our first for a Stanley Cup? If buffalo was a contender down the road, added a guy at the deadline and won a Cup, we could crap the bed on deadline deals for the next decade and if still say it was worth it. Injuries play a big part too can never be too prepared. I big part I don't understand is why teams don't do it sooner in the season? Ya alot of teams want to know where they stand at the deadline I get that. But take a look at clb, are they first in metro if they acquired duchene and dzingel in December?
  11. I say we bring back GMTM and trade Risto for Josh HoSang
  12. Guys mom is only 3 years old? That's more interesting then the other 10 facts
  13. I really like the trade. Certainly wasn't a steal but a fair price. Please can the "now that we have a respectable blue line let's trade Risto" stop. Please
  14. I don't see the relevance here. I wasn't implying they hated each other. I was hoping someone could find a clip of it as I was hoping to hear the exchange. If you thought that's what I was going for, and you think this picture disproves that narrative, I'd find that funny. O'Reilly Seems to be having a fun conversation, with someone who either doesn't care enough to put his phone down to really listen, or doesn't respect the person enough.
  15. Anyone have a clip between Eichel and O'Reilly of when they were talking about the banjo? Sounded like some chirping but it was loud where I was watching didn't catch all of it
  16. Both or either wouldn't hurt. Spooner is all Edm has to show for Eberle. Chiarelli should not have a job.
  17. 10M today will be 12M in 3 years, so ya that'll probably be a fair market price haha
  18. I was thinking more Skinner at 7.5-8, Eichel at 10 and Dahlin at the 12 range. In 3 years that's at least what he will cost. His play + the rising cap is why I'm projecting that. But really it's not a stretch to think someone else other than Skinner may come in and earn a 8M. My point is and you're dealing with having 2 elite+/franchise players and a 3rd elite guy, good luck getting them under 30M. Hopefully by that time we have a cup making it more worth it.
  19. If everything works out like it's appearing, we will be spending 30M+ on 3 players
  20. Game against Minny you could really see his confidence starting to grow, that's the main goal here. Easier opposition until he really gets comfortable (getting there but his game has another few notches to go yet) then start increasing the workload. Kid is going to be unreal, probably this season it will happen, but if it takes 3 years then that's when he should get the bump up.
  21. How many of Eichels assists have been rebounds? That is definitely relevant here in regards to shooting % as well
  22. Yikes... It's not even a little bit of a problem! Seriously it's been 20 games. Do you know how often even franchise players shoot 5.8% for 20 games? I'm going to go out on a limb here and say it's happened to Crosby multiple times, probably damn near everyone who has been in the league long enough, has had it happen. This team is third in the Atlantic ahead of Boston (whom many of you thought would finish first in the division) this hardly seems concerning in the slightest
  23. Were going to the east of it, just past wanipagow in GHA 17A. Can't wait starting to cool now. Just hope the water levels are good. (They were lower this year then I ever remember seeing them) That's interesting, I've been thinking of getting into waterfowl but I've never eaten much if it and wasn't too sure how to cook it. I'll have to give that a shot because their is geese everywhere here.
  24. Newfoundland would probably be a great experience! I've never been but there's alot of moose around there! I'd definitely recommend a moose hunt, if you catch them in the rut and they are answering and coming in to the call it can be quite exhilarating. Yup unfortunately southern Manitoba is closed because there's very few moose left. I've done a few flyins in northern Manitoba and it's generally around 50% success rate depending on where you go! This year we're going up in northern Manitoba again, were canoeing in to a somewhat remote lake. Going to be alot of work but the fishing is always great. I do very much enjoy wild meat, we make our own pepperettes, Smokey's, Jerky the whole 9. Some animals are very wild tasting, but after alot of fine tuning recipes it can be quite delicious!
