  1. I went to cawledge in Rochester. Never heard smug town. The Lilac City was its name, or something like that.
  2. The really like when you call it Frisco. That’s also very popular there. Truckers used that term on the CB radio.
  3. I think the problem is that is pretty much all we have with Levi at 21 projecting to be a starter after only 7 NHL games.
  4. President typically sets the strategy for the hockey operations and ties them to the business goals. This gets flowed to the GM. Every organization can run things a bit different. Adams made the jump from the business side to the Hockey Operations side. He also took that long road trip with the team to observe how things were going and report back. Needless to say Adams new a lot about what was going on with the team.
  5. Ouch. Speak for yourself. My comment was more directed at Jones. Sure, Briere deserves a shot, why not? And hiring Keith Jones from the broadcast booth is a great idea. He bleeds black and orange, and he wants to be there, rah rah.
  6. Agree. As great as Coffey was, Orr was even more dominant. Orr was a guy that changed the way the game was played. Like Gretzky, but only from the defensive position.
  7. To bad Porto bailed on us, he would have been a good development project. Leinonen is far away. Comrie is a backup. UPL is still TBD. Thankful we have Levi right now. Yes, we should probably draft another Goalie.
  8. McDavid responded to the nasty Pietrangelo slash on Draisaitl, and he quickly was looking for reinforcements. Nurse was the response, he jumped Hague at the end of the game and did a good answering. Vegas was definitely getting a bit unruly.
  9. I would not take him back because moving on is important, although he is s very good player. He would not want to come back either. It is unfortunate that the Sabres gave the keys to the kingdom to a few kids that were not ready yet.
  10. My kids are of the age to get invited to attend those events. We just didn't do that stuff when I was having kids.
  11. I think the Panthers can break their hearts tonight.
  12. My bad, I know corporations can be public or private and I forgot the the Bills LLC being under PSE. I understand that all agents of the company have fiduciary responsibilities. But not all employees are agents of the company, which is what I thought Weave was saying at first. thanks.
  13. Yes, acting in the best interest of the owner (or the Company as determined by the BoD) is correct. Companies do pound that into every manager and with good reason. To run a healthy business managers must maintain their cost budgets while meeting their goals/requirements/deliveries in addition to leading their staff. I consult now on a limited part time basis. I do not directly participate in corporate culture but it sure help to understand it and how it varies from company to company.
  14. You are kind of failing MBA 101 here @Weave. The Bills are not a corporation, they do not sell shares to the public. The Bills are a privately owned limited liability company, LLC, meaning the ownership is protected from certain liabilities related to the business. A fiduciary, generally speaking, is a person that is responsible to manage and make money for another person, some financial planners/investment managers are fiduciaries. Fiduciaries must not factor their own needs/benefits when determining what is best for a client/trustee, and must act in the best interest for a client. There are certain employees hired by the Bills that have financial positions, and thus fiduciary responsibility to the organization. COO, CFO, contracts, business admin, accounting, etc., would fall under this umbrella. Most other employees do not.
  15. Devils getting stomped. You can really see the difference in experience tonight.
  16. There was nothing fishy about Pesce’s last goal.
  17. Surprised to see this in International unless it it USA vs CAN. Tuchy should have buried him when he had the chance.
  18. There will be some very good players there at 13, and I am confident in this Front Office find one.
  19. I like the way Adams is paying his core and managing the oncoming wave of salaries.
