  1. Sure, and also working working on his diet to feed that kind of muscle gain. Just look at him now and compare to his draft day interview. He really is growing fast. They said he speaks 5 languages too. Hopefully the college environment keeps him focused.
  2. Just read that Max Strbak is up to 205 lbs going into sophomore season at Michigan State (NCAA). Could be a good shut down defenseman someday.
  3. Rick Martin was on pace for a 500+ career goals, and a Hall of Fame career. What if, he never got injured?
  4. Awesome: seeing the grandbaby. Not awesome at all: Houston in August (or March, April, May, June, July, September and October). I just don't really understand how 7M+ people can live there?
  5. If Tage gets back to 40+ goals and 90+ points he is ahead of many in your list and then how do you not take him?
  6. This could be the most descriptive whiskey review I have ever read. Quit your day job and get down to the Bourbon Trail in Kentucky.
  7. I really like all kinds of Single Malt Scotches but now, in the past two years I have been drinking Bourbon's quite a bit as well. Maybe that is why I make so many typos in the GDT's? My current staple is Woodford Reserve but there are many others up there with it. There are lower priced bourbons (Four Roses and Jim Beam to name a few) that are also good. Keep moderation in mind and sip slowly.
  8. Mayor Sedita could be the grey haired guy way in the back
  9. Tall guy behind the balding white haired guy.
  10. I attended many home games in the 70's and it seemed like Meehan/ Lorentz /and whoever (McNab/ Dudley/etc) played the second shift a lot. Obviously the Gare/Luce/Ramsay line played 2nd line minutes, Luce and Rammer killed penalties too, and Gare played PP, so that broke up the rotation quite a bit. Especially at home with the final line change, Luce's line would be called upon to shut down the other teams top line, adding minutes to their workload. Whatever it was called, they were excellent.
  11. Yes, there are 8, and a lot of dead people. Clarence Campbell is one of the 8, good catch. I want to say that Freddie Hunt is one of them (he was the AGM and the Cinci Swords GM) but none of them look like him at all. Those sisters were really something back in the day. And Peg was lovely, I do believe she had a wooden leg?
  12. Yes, my question was rhetorical because Ramsay is one of the Sabres all time leaders in games played, and he was technically by todays terms on the 3rd line, even though that line got lots of minutes.
  13. Agree that by quality with were top 6 by todays standards, and even as 3rd liners for those strong Sabres teams, they logged a lot of minutes. More on Ramsay. He played for 7 seasons before they had a Selke Trophy or he would have had a few more. He was every bit as good as Gainey who got a lot more notoriety playing on Five Cup winning teams in Montreal. Ramsey scored more career goals and had 171 more career points while playing 90 less games. Both were ironmen, Ramsay did not miss a game for over 10 seasons.
  14. Are Luce and Ramsay considered bottom six? They were 3rd line players and first line PK. They played a lot of shut down minutes. In the 70’s we did not talk in terms of bottom 6, top 6.
  15. Yes. And Northrop Knox, Robert Swados, Rick Azar (channel 7 eyewitness sports) and tbd.
  16. Can you name the people in this photo?
  17. Well, today was a rough one. Ouch. The RBs accounted for 36 yard on 19 carries. I don't care if it was mostly 3rd string, they played against 3rd string too. Not worried, but the offense needs to get their game going in the next one.
  18. It does not appear to be from a glen.
  19. Last season there was an opportunity for Rousek to come in and take a 4th line spot. He didn't rise to the occasion.
  20. 5'11" or 6' is not much of a factor. I would like to see him continue to get stronger and get his weight up to 185 someday.
  21. Agree. It is hard enough to fill certain jobs and we don't need mean people harassing the workers. The Home Depot supervisor, since he heard what was happening, should have helped this girl with a difficult customer. That is what a leader, as opposed to a manager, would do. I see this kind of situation happen all the time. People harassing young workers or older workers at stores and restaurants. I cannot stand bullies that prey on easy targets. Good for you for stepping in.
  22. Being young and talented is not a problem if they have players on the roster that will support them and help keep them from being intimidated. Helenius (14th overall 2024), Östlund (16th 2022), Kulich (28th 2022), Rosen (20th 2021), Wahlberg (39th 2023), Johnson (31st 2019), Komarov (134th 2022), Novikov (188th 2021) - this is a lot talent.
  23. There are a lot of young draftees for sure. Are the vets the kind that will help them survive on the rugged AHL?
  24. I saw the Tedeschi Trucks Band. Four times now. Always excellent too. Opening act was Margo Price and she was also excellent.
