  1. Because like all wives she’s wrong most of the time. Start pretending you can’t hear. Might frustrate her enough to stop offering constructive criticism.
  2. But that 3rd D pair included a guy whom our GM targeted for JJP, a legit top 6 forward with 40 goal potential. Doan who was apparently the sweetener, has been surprisingly good (except last night). And I know that Kesserling had Bryson with him but I’m sorry, if your target to be the guy who can stabilize Power and an anchor on the second pairing is reduced to third line minutes, is statistically playing like $hite, and looks lost at times it’s yet another failure for Kevyn. I had high expectations for this kid b/c of JJP and how Adams described him. Kevyn gets some credit for his UFA acquisition Timmons who has also surprised, and none for Mr. Glass who appears to have found his game at age 25. Timmons / Kesselring is one step forward, two steps back. Mule/Dahlin - the same.
  3. Colorado is -300 on the ML bet. Seems like a trap game. Or it ends up 10-1. @PromoTheRobot lay the 2.5 goals for -125.
  4. Your only two goals are from an AHL call up, who probably wasn’t expected to play one game if injuries weren’t rampant. You need to score goals boys. Unacceptable effort. Bryson and Kesselring were a shite pair playing 11 and 12 minutes respectively, each minus 2. Krebs line was horrendous. Also minus 2, with Dunne -3. And Beck was hardly noticeable. If you can’t score, you must bring energy and prevent scoring. upside- if they lose all these games on the road, there is a chance Adams or Ruff (hopefully both) are gone by the time they play EDM on 17th.
  5. Famous last words. You are begging for a quote in T minus 42.
  6. live look at Power
  7. Great segment. Youngest teams were Montreal, Buffalo and Anaheim and when asked who is the future, Montreal got one and the Ducks two. Buffalo is a perennial “shake up” mode team. Verbeek built the Anaheim roster properly. Even his “cap dumps” from the Rangers are crushing it. How about a Kesselring Gordie Howe hat trick?
  8. Opinions…bad spellcheck
  9. Not all fans live in the area, and leverage MSG for access. I like knowing if ESPN+ is carrying the game. Plus, the game starts at 6pm, not 9pm….pacific time zone and all. But I get it. Nothing more important than your opinion, nothing less important than mine. My dad still says opinions are like @$$holes, everyone has one. It’s why some of these threads go on and on.
  10. Could be Thad. Short for Thadius.
  11. We might be better off with a Hudsucker Proxy scenario where Terry hires the mailroom clerk instead. But I gots a feelin' Jarmo was more a “waiting in the wings” type of a successor.
  12. The Canadians are in first place in the Atlantic and the Ducks are in first in the Pacific Division. These two were also in our remedial reading class with San Jose the last few years and they are now grade level or advanced. Not sure if either are for real. With respect to Anaheim, while the West has lost most of their head to head against the East, Anaheim has won against the Bruins, Panthers (twice), Devils, Red Wings, and Penguins. Adding wins against good teams in the west like the Stars and Golden Knights. These two have significant improvement in scoring and goal differentials. These Sabres on the other hand sit with 41 GF. Only Florida and Calgary have fewer. Disappointing to say the least. Let’s see what happens when some of the regulars come back into the lineup.
  13. Carolina has 12th best PK. Looked better than that. Our PP looked impotent.
  14. Thompson playing better tonight with new line mates than the other day. Who can shut down Aho/Svech/Jarvis? Do that and this and this is a winnable game. Aho is a Sabre killer. Bryson and Glass with the most TOI for our Defense. Lindy
  15. Is the definition of problem child open to interpretation? Like their problem child has bad grades at prep school, caught with weed and edibles and was kicked off the wrestling team. While our problem child has a cocaine habit, an illegitimate child at age 16 and dropped out of public school as a sophomore? Also, love how you say “one of ours”, as in plural. We have so many f@*king problem children that 1 Seymore Knox III Plaza that it’s the new Father Bakers of Buffalo for the 21st Century. In fact I think parents may start to use the arena as a threat to their young children with bad behavior, like we heard about Father Bakers. If you don’t listen to me son, I’m going to drop you off at a Sabres game.
  16. My vote for the Sabres-flavored sitcom is Arrested Development - "Now the story of a family that lost everything, and the one son who had no choice but to keep them all together" Yeah, Kevyn - keep 'em all together....in hell. ....but I'll be watching. It's not like I have anything better to do. Must Tie.
  17. Tied for 6th worst Power Play % in the NHL @ 19.1
  18. UPL takes a penalty. Dangerous and stupid all rolled into one. F*&K Off Kevyn.
  19. Listen to him. If not, Child Services might charge you with emotional abuse.
  20. I think the min games is 300. Four seasons or more, and that’s if you have character and impact as a player. Maybe 2 seasons if you were a fan favorite and won a cup or made some significant contribution to a championship or memorable season. JJP had 3 seasons maybe 220 games. Impactful yes, but character, no. And losing seasons to boot. I side with the organization on this one. JJP got exactly what he deserved. A one way ticket out of Dodge. On a side note, you might remember 40 Thieves on Elmwood better as Merlin’s. I went there this summer with a group of college buddies. The food was fantastic, the remodel is above average. Looks nothing like Merlin’s of the early 90s when I was there last. And the clientele….I can see why JJP might frequent. Stunning young ladies on a random Friday in July.
