    This quote is pretty damning to the fight club crowd in the interpretation of last night. It’s readily apparent that Cozens is actually not Braveheart. He doesn’t live by a hockey code. He didn’t go out there to defend his space and do what’s necessary.

    Contrary to his natural playing style and inclination, he deliberately had to think about starting a fight sometime in the future. He had to wait for the right time because, I’m guessing, players don’t actually just throw the gloves down and start pounding on peoples faces because it’s your job and that’s what hockey players do in 2021.

    Last night was performative. Manufactured. He forced himself to do it once. You probably won’t see it again for the rest of the season. 

    His teammates then gave performative responses to his performative fight. All the while, each and everyone of them could start a fight at any time for any reason and none of them do it. Why? Because it’s all performative words for a microphone stuck in their face. They don’t believe it. If they believed what they said they would do it themselves.
     

     

    Are you mad that Cozens dropped the gloves? Your agenda is starting to get weird now

    That guy summarized the Sabres team perfectly.  We're a joke and everyone knows it all across the league and certainly our division.

    Yeah I mean he’s just seeing what we see on a nightly basis. This is why Krueger needs to go. He’s lost the team and it’s painfully obvious 

  3. I’m certainly not going to debate anybody on the importance of fighting in hockey. The game is going away from it but it still has a place. To me Cozens dropping the gloves was absolutely huge. Did we win the game? Obviously not. But I know he earned respect in the locker room. Hell he earned a newfound respect with a lot of people here. It shouldn’t have had to be him but he did it anyways. And he looked great doing it. Bravo Dylan, bravo...

    Am I the only person who didn’t have a problem with 716?  Went a couple of times. Enjoyed it each visit.  

    We have several breweries in Rochester that don’t make the beer in the location they serve it.  

    I loved the 716. It was my 3rd favorite place in the Buffalo area. I was willing to overpay for drinks and settle for mediocre food for an atmosphere like that. By far the greatest Sports bar I had ever been to

    Still speculation.  If anything, Tortorella is getting sick of his situation in Columbus.  He's been there 6 years.  That's about his time limit to flame out anyway.

    Oh yeah it’s all just speculation at this point. But there is a TON of it out there. Same with our guy. I’d take Torts in a heartbeat

    Torts is not going anywhere.  I've seen or heard no speculation of it.  He's the best coach they've ever had.  Any (mediocre) heights they've achieved were all under Torts. They just traded their top center when he didn't fit with the culture/system in place.  

    Well that makes it official then if you haven’t seen or heard anything. I simple google search says otherwise but that’s probably all fake news

    I will legitimately quit this team if we trade Eichel

    This was me up until about 2 or 3 weeks ago. No way do we trade Eichel. But this was supposed to be the year. This was the team that was at least going to contend for a playoff spot. It’s not working. We’ve gone through coaches and GMs with the same results. Maybe it’s time to blow it up again..

    I am going through the recorded segments from Howard and Jeremy this morning now.

    I just listened to the Paul Hamilton segment...now onto Hour 1.

     

    I listened to the first hour of the Instigators as well. I won’t list to Schopp and the Bulldog because I’d rather listen to the sound of two opossums getting it on than listen to them for 5 mins
