I wouldn’t. Not every single Sabres fan would love a Marchand on the team. His offensive skill? Yes please! Everything else he brings? F no! but that’s just me I guess.

I suppose the hit on Hunt from Kero was a “great hit” because hey, he showed grit and sandpaper. …. Scumbag hit. Unnecessary.

Wash. Ties it up

Yea that was a nice move to not overskate the play and bang it home

What’s Washington’s roster today? Probably equally void of current NHLer’s too.

Yea for that reason and others …. Kane can go toy around somewhere else. NYR, NYI, or NJD would be a good fit for him.

IMO the league fully transitioned away from one dimensional pugilists when they made it “illegal” to rip off your own helmet or rip off another players helmet during a fight. Or maybe it was when they made it “illegal” to try to pull a jersey over the opponents head. Ot perhaps even earlier than that. Grit and sandpaper I certainly like and appreciate. One dimensional pugilists will never return. And the league is better for it. And lastly, a fight in a preseason game doesn’t indicate “the official beginning of hockey”. It’s just two players fighting for a roster spot or to be noticed by their respective clubs. Nothing more. Yawn.

I think 5 is way too quick. Watch a few penalty shots and shootouts on youtube. I think IF that was even something to consider, 7-8 seconds from the time they touch the puck is fair. Otherwise the chaser idea has some merit to it. Personally, I’ve always thought shootouts to decide a regular season game is lame lame lame.

Against a mix of NHL’ers who were glaringly playing at 70%, and prospects, Levi played fine for what it was… a no checking scrimmage. And when he played he allowed no goals. When Tokarski went in, he allowed two goals. They were team gold. Team blue won 2-0.

Ok If I ranted and raved and stressed and seethed about every little and big issue with a sports team, I’d have had a heart attack years ago. It’s only a sport. Not gonna sweat what I can’t control. Enjoy the sport too much to have fits over everything like some fans enjoy doing. Everyone enjoys the sport in their own way. 👍🏼

Expect? I learned a long time ago to expect very little and be happy if it happens. I don’t expect anyone to be traded or moved. That’s my baseline. Yea that’s right. Low expectations means low disappointment. 😬

As of Sept. 23rd, there are … days left until the Sabres season!

And here are all the preseason games …

But but but …. They don’t like …. Play big er somethin’

I don’t think that. Not at all.I don’t think that. Not at all. I didn’t think what I described was you at all. In fact I described somebody that I know.

Awesome pic …
