  1. Moneypuck disagrees. Expected goals much higher for the ๐Ÿฆฃ. I thought the same as you.
  2. ๐Ÿ’ฏ. Agree with all you saidโ€ฆjust added some lyrics from Bad, by U2.
  3. desperation, separation Condemnation, resignation In temptation, isolation. Let it go.
  4. Yamamoto went 3-0 with a 1.02 ERA in the Fall Classic. Heโ€™s just the 14th pitcher to notch three wins in a single World Series and the first since Hall of Famer Randy Johnson did it for the Diamondbacks in 2001. He is the first pitcher with three road wins in a single World Series and just the fourth pitcher to win both Game 6 and Game 7, joining Johnson (2001), Harry Brecheen (1946) and Ray Kremer (1925). Unbelievable performance. Unfortunately I was there to see my team lose to Johnson in that game 7 in 2001. Devastating ride back home through the desert. My condolences.
  5. Tuch is 3 years older than Necas (as the most recent comparable for $11.5m), so it stands to reason that $11.5m AAV would be over 5 years and not 8. If you are forced to go to a higher AAV, so be it, but I thought the point is getting the most guaranteed money? The Tuch camp still needs to find $14.5m after age 35 if they want the equivalent contract of $9m*8, or $72m guaranteed (assuming that is what the Sabres have probably offered). Iโ€™d say itโ€™s 30/70 whether injuries or regression prevents a $7m+ type contract in 2032. Even with a growing Cap.
  6. Just pray it stays that way for the next two minutes.
  7. I said shoulder only when it happened. Frustrating they look at these in slo-mo and still f*@k up a call.
  8. Greenway had a solid first period. Multiple hits, with, by far the biggest open ice hit all year for this team. A key check that freed up the puck on Tages goal. A fight with Wilson - keeping him on the bench for most of the first. Yeomanโ€™s work.
  9. Not sure if I should laugh or call the โ€œwokeโ€ police on youโ€ฆ.but Iโ€™m suuuuper high, so ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿคฃ๐Ÿ˜
  10. Please help me with Lindyโ€™s logic on starting UPL? He was planning to play Ellis, didnโ€™t, and UPL was โ€ฆ.UPL against Toronto. Sabres are carrying 3 goalies, and he bypasses Ellis start based a below average performance. Where is the upside?
  11. Below is a snippet of McLeod for just October 2024 vs 2025 - 5v5. Eleven games vs. ten, but a higher XGF, and a higher XGF%. More Shots for and SF% is better. Actual Goals against is 2X (concerning?), but GF is ~60% more. My observation is they are driving play.
  12. Are you factoring in that last year, he played 3rd line 5v5 verses this year playing a true second line? Which means his level of competition is much higher. And how does his offensive production compare to last year? Iโ€™ve been pleasantly surprised at the chemistry of McCleod with Tuch and Doan. I was an advocate of having Tuch moved to the first line after the injury to Norris but now I want to see our second line continue to flourish.
  13. 3/4X + Y =15 losing years. Y= Delta Bravo Adams
  14. Let the player with the best shot on the ice walk in unmolested. Good one.
  15. Guys with his shooting prowess need to pass.
  16. Another GM, a real GM would. But one beholden to โ€œtheirโ€ contracts will not. Just think what it would be like to have Rasmus Andersson on this squad at $4.5 instead of Power. A more mature player at half the salary. Your implication is our hate for Samuelson is past tense. Mine is still there, itโ€™s just on airplane mode. Letโ€™s see how long the flight is before I reconnect.
