  1. https://youtu.be/Q4ghL3yWD-I How does one insert YouTube videos so it shows up as a clickable image?
  2. Toronto fans for the most part have always been nuts, unreasonable, illogical, and myopic. This moment in time highlights it beautifully.
  3. Binged watched Killing Eve. Pretty solid show. If anyone likes Boris Karloff, check out Thriller. It was an hour long tv show in the early 1960’s. Pretty cool mix of paranormal, who dun it, sci-fi type premises. Watch them on YouTube.
  4. Thank god Moulson and Pominville are coming off. Those are just obnoxious cap hits. Amazing Hodgson is getting paid for another 4 years after this year. Wow ...
  5. I am 50/50 on him. On one hand, yes, him developing in Buffalo would be great! And hopefully a fine asset to a line. On the other hand, I could see him finishing the season strong in Buffalo, get sent to Roch. and help them win in the playoffs. With his value inflated, JB puts him in a package deal over the summer to help improve the team next season. Either scenario works for me ... ?‍♂️
  6. First mistake is thinking TSN are level headed reasonable talking heads ... it took me 1.5 seasons to get there ... but I want Housley gone. And I think he will be before the playoffs begin. JB will likely have a minimum of one more full season as GM. And if the team looks better next season, he’ll get more than that.
  7. I personally never boo an ex player. I think it’s petty, and lame. I also never boo star players every freaking time they touch the puck. But to each his own ... In the first minute or two of the game, the Sabres did acknowledge O’Reilly and welcomed him back to Buffalo and there was a warm reception of cheees and claps for him.
  8. Yea. I’ve been in the “done with Bogo” train for over a year. No matter how long he stays healthy, I just want to move on from him. on the topic of Sheary... did anyone think when we acquired him he would be a top 6 winger who pots 23-28 goals? If so, why did you think that? Curious to hear the reasoning. I didn’t. Looking at prior seasons, it’s obvious he was a 14-19 goal, 15-20 assist 3rd liner who can play spot duty from time to time on the PP or 2nd line. And I wouldn’t move him this summer. His 3 mil. cap hit is fair and reasonable for what he brings. I would hang onto Larsson. He’s a possession monster. Great fit for the 4th line. Girgs, although I like him, I wouldn’t shed a tear if he was moved for some sort of upgrade or bring up a hungry prospect who earns a spot.
  9. I never do. unless you count grabbing a shamrock shake and a cookie with green frosting on it at Wegmans “celebrating” haha
  10. Yep. If he stays up, we’ll see if he can bring it almost every game like he did tonight. No shifts off. No coasting. Smart and responsible in the D zone. Understanding he’s young and developing. Not getting too down on a bad game here and there.
  11. Solid move Dad. Solid move ... ??
  12. Between Eichel and Dahlin... they are the only two who can enter the zone cleanly. (For the most part). i just hate how the coaching staff is telling them to stand around instead of constantly moving and cycling on the PP. it just doesn’t work. dump n chase rarely works with this crew...
  13. Lots a green today at the arena. Like overload lol. i hope everyone is smart tonight. Leave the drinking and driving to the amateurs. stay safe!
  14. It’s game by game. Some games throughout the season he’s so so. Others he’s great! it might be arena dependent too. Some arenas he’s further away and may not see as well. Just a thought.
  15. Beauts now playing for the Isobel cup! you can watch it live from the twitter feed. szabados isn’t playing .... anyone know why? ah .... just found out LBI won’t play. Damn...
  16. When I listened a couple years ago, I’ve noticed that too. Not to mention as soon as someone brings up any kind of advanced stats he doesn’t know, he gets defensive and insults caller or gives them no time to retort. hes lame...
  17. No no .... it had multi barrels like a Gatling gun. It was sweet.
  18. I forgot now where I saw it.... might have been a lower league game or something ... but the “t-shirt tosser” had a freakin cannon. Like literally a multi-barrel air compressed cannon and fired 4-5 t-shirts faaaaar into the crowd. They must have fired 20-25 shirts into the crowd in 60 seconds. It was awesome. I wish Sabretooth could get that thing!
  19. I don’t listen to that hot mess otherwise known as shopp and the bulldog, but I will have to agree with that mindset. No way Phil survives. And IF JB wants to be loyal to Phil (I don’t think he will be) he’ll be gone too.
  20. Oh absolutely. So they have a good game plan. They come out looking good! Hell, they may even score! Lol. 1st intermission happens. Opposing coach and his staff come up with a good counter punch. Phil and his staff... not so much. 2nd and 3rd period happen and Phil has no answer to the counterpunch. No effective adjustments in game and 2nd intermission. Coaches are scratching their heads and post games say something like “we didn’t execute”. Rinse. repeat.
  21. I’m seeing a coaching staff consistently out coached. Because I don’t see effective in game adjustments that turn the tide of periods or shifts. Sure one could say “nice shift by that line” but it’s a one off. It’s followed up with multiple poor shifts and poor periods. The system and coaching are the Achilles heel of this team. Followed closely by a few holes that need to be filled in the off season. I don’t think goaltending and defense (personnel) are a major factor to focus on in the off season. Maybe try to move one of Bogo, Nelson, or Scandella. I’d prefer Bogo. His salary is obnoxious for what he brings. Sabres have the horses to dictate play with speed... but Housley refuses to play a system like Winnipeg or SJ. We need scoring wingers. Second only to a new systems/coaching staff. With Pominville gone, and maybe one of Sheary or Okposo, the Sabres could go after a 25-30 goal a year winger with some wheels. Playoff experience and leadership qualities would be a nice bonus.
  22. Yea it was nice seeing Skinner and Girgs pot one. Today maybe we can see 3 goals. I’d like to see Reinhart, Nylander, or Dahlin pot one. I assume Hutton is starting.
