Dreger is a disgusting scuzzy no talent boil on the ass of both journalism and humanity and that's the nicest thing I'll say about him. Even festering tubs of toilet water like that hack Larry Brooks look good in comparison to him.

If the broooinz had thrown in a rocket we could strap Eakin to and fire straight into the sun into the Hall trade my opinion on it would've done a 180.

This is like defending Dolan for destroying the Knicks by pointing to the success of the rags.

They reunited the REO Deathwagon Line, YAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

He didn't even try to use the leverage he had (which I patiently explained in an earlier post) to make Hall accept going somewhere other than Boston because the situation was Mutually Assured Destruction, and losing out on a high second rounder would hurt us less than losing out on a fortune would hurt Hall.

The idea he had us over a barrel and we had no leverage annoys me greatly. We did have leverage: if Hall was still here after the deadline we lose a pick but he loses MILLIONS of dollars in UFA because his value is at an all time low and he needed to go somewhere to rebuild it. It's real clear that our GM was more interested in catering to a guy who ended up being exposed as a complete snake rather than playing hardball and getting the best outcome for the team.

It felt like GM Unqualified PSE Crony was more concerned with doing what was best for Taylor Hall than the Buffalo Sabres.

If this jackass is allowed to do an Eichel trade just burn KBC to the ground and piss on it's ashes.

GM PSE Crony just called a guy who he publicly stated pretty much emasculated him in the worst way possible "professional".

If so he should feel like the biggest sucker and mark on Planet Earth right now.

Why doesn't anyone seem to notice the thing that makes this trade so awful is essentially tossing a million or so in cap space the next few seasons straight into Lake Erie for a guy in Bjork who is in no way a million bucks better than Lazar?

And that actually understates how good he has been because save percentage doesn't factor in difficulty/quality of shots faced.

TAGE WON THIS ONE FOR OUR BELOVED APRIL!!!!!!! I AM IN TEARS!!!!!

GIRAFFE SCOOOOOOOOORES!!!! If we had won this game I'd be running down Main Street here in Brewster clad only in my Tage gameworn wildly screaming in celebration.

He is also The Giraffe Whisperer as well!

Did you know there are only 3 NFL stadiums that don't have corporate naming deals? Lambeau Field (Green Bay) Soldier Field (Chicago) Paul Brown Stadium (Cincinnati)

Tl:dr.

Great job by Granato to switch everything up in the 3rd. It was working way too well and we were in danger of winning a game.

OK how does this sound: They are by far the worst team of the post lockout era in which the entire freaking league was de facto rigged through the cap, Gary Bettman Loser Points and other mechanisms so that just about every team would be competitive.

In a normal draft yes, but in dis draft the strategy should be simply to have as many picks anywhere in the draft as possible because there is a high probability dat it ends up as the biggest crapshoot ever.

I mean, at least two of the teams you mentioned were specifically designed to try and lose as many games as possible and dis team is on pace to be significantly worse.

I may go up to one of the last games mainly so I can lay a wreath in front of the building like you see done at the site of a horrific tragedy.

Right off the top of my head: Chris Pronger and Victor Heddman.
