Sure, there are consequences for every action a living entity does.

I see, so, your pro forced vaccinations then? Even if that entails breaking down your door, physically tackling your 18 yr old daughter, your wife, in their own home, to accomplish the deed?

This is not an actual vaccine in the sense that it is a preventative measure from the virus itself, at least, not yet in any event. So to insert it in to a bundle, such as the polio vaccination is premature. But, it has proven an effective profilictate to the impact if contracted. From the CDC's own site, posted merely 3 days ago: "Although COVID-19 vaccines are effective at keeping you from getting sick, scientists are still learning how well vaccines prevent you from spreading the virus that causes COVID-19 to others, even if you do not have symptoms. Early data show that vaccines help keep people with no symptoms from spreading COVID-19, but we are learning more as more people get vaccinated. We’re also still learning how long COVID-19 vaccines protect people. For these reasons, people who have been fully vaccinated against COVID-19 should keep taking precautions until we know more, like wearing a mask in indoor public places, avoiding large indoor gatherings, and washing your hands often. Vaccinated people do not need to wear masks outside except in crowds." So, as you can see, they openly state they are unsure if it affects the contiguous side of the subject. Also, if you've been vaccinated, by their own admission, you can still contract covid 19. Therefore, prudence lends itself to getting vaccinated, for the good of the many. But in the end, it's still an individual personal choice.

While I am currently between the first and second Moderna shots, I find the entire mind set of shaming over vaccinations completely repugnant. Seriously, this society is so F'd up, for example, at family conversations the same die hard "my body, my choice" voices are demanding other family members get the vaccination and actually espouse it should be forcibly done by the government if necessary. I just sit back, shake my head and chuckle at it. The hypocrisy of it all.

A desire for change is a tad different than finger pointing, wouldn't you agree?

Oh we are so going to have fun this off season LG. Personal feelings aside, the only 1 I see gone this off season so far, Risto. As for Jack, who knows. But as for Reinhart, if both Jack and Risto move, a healthy contract could be presented, the question isn't do we want Sam here, the question is does Sam want to be here. We'll find out together.

Patience, I responded 😉

And so it ends.......

And so it begins........

Not interested in quantity.

So, the Governors brother-in-law's sisters kid, his high school buddies mom's ex, and 3 of his fishing club members will all be contributors to his campaign? Good to know.

Eichel clearly wants out. Wait until the end of this neck rehab period, then evaluate if surgery is warranted or not. But conversations with other teams need to be taking place yesterday. Risto is just waiting for his contract to run out. Move him. Reinhart's value is peak, make the trade.

Fully agree.

Oh, the wife and I are going to love having you over for cribbage games 😄 So, what size are you? I get to wear the Santa suit, but I think the gumdrop costume has been washed since the last time.................

I know, but every player shares the responsibility and culpability. It's not so hard to trade any one of these players if the mind is released from the bondage of what it took to garner them. Yes, we suffered to get them, but the suffering hasn't ended, it's maintained the same level for years now. If moving them boosts the team, like Eisenhower on the evening of June 3rd, 1944 said, "GO"!

Meet the wife..... Still interested?

Well, I was going to send the wife, figured it would make for comfortable evenings after work, I think she has over 50 thousand hours in the kitchen, that should at least count towards the food degree, she kept the liquir cabinet stocked and up to date for 30 years (took the first 5 to train her, but ever since that 6th year, she's been golden), SQF and HAACP, I'll have her read it on the drive in. So, we're good then?

So, You hiring?

I'm not advocating moving him because he is the cruces of the problem, I am all for moving him for several factors, but I wouldn't hesitate to move him.

Yes, I'm full aware of the overall mess the team has been, from top to bottom.

Reinhart, Eichel, this years 1st unprotected for Byfield, Turcotte, Kalieyv and Bjornfot. Yes, No?

Thorny, come on man. You see the freaking season ending records these past 6 seasons Eichel has been here. You aren't honestly going to sit here and try and tell me with him on the roster our situation has improved, at all? The fact is, we've had two finishes dead last in the past 3 years now. We aren't going anywhere with him in the line up that we couldn't go to without him in the line up. I get it, he's got skills, but I'm not one to fawn over those skills. He can go, and I wouldn't bat an eye, same with Samson, same with Risto. We literally finished dead last this year, dead last, and we did it 3 years ago to. So yea, they can mosey on down the road, that is my mind set on the situation.

Oh, I'm not putting blame on him, I'm merely pointing out that he was, in point of fact, a non factor impact wise to a competitive Sabres team. And, as we are all well aware, the 6 seasons since he's been here team record bares this out.

I don't understand where the nothing comes from. Certainly we are going to get something in return for him in a trade, no? Are you implying Botterill is still the GM and we are going to get ROR'd all over again? Because I don't see Kyven Adams as Jason Botterill, at least, not yet.

It is a very logical statement, since factually, he has not had an impact on moving the team in a competitive direction.
