Sabres73

Why do you think the Canucks, a non-playoff team, paid millions of dollars for OEL to not play hockey for them anymore? And you want him on our team? Yeesh.

That would be a horrible decision. He was awful at even strength, awful on the power play, awful on the penalty kill. He's done, and it's obvious.

I live in Vancouver. He is awful, and done. His career may actually be over.

As someone living in Vancouver who follows the Canucks coverage, I don't think OEL would make Rochester this year. He was truly awful. Bad on even strength, bad on the power play, bad on penalty kills. Just bad. I'm not sure he stays in the NHL.

Just like everyone else, but when you're in the vast minority you may want to consider that other peoples opinions.

Seems like pretty much everyone else disagrees with you.

Not a chance, he's turned into a solid Sabre - he stays, no question. They can pick up a defenceman a different way.

I vote "WTF is this s#^t?"

Looks like Eichel's neck is okay, lol

Clean hit. Could be a huge turning point in the series if he's out. Wouldn't that be a story if it was a neck injury?

Here in Vancouver, the Whitecaps peaked a few years ago when they could regularly get 20-25k at a game. Their recent games have been sparse. Conversely, the BC Lions of the CFL are becoming more popular, as they should be. They have LL Cool J at their home opener coming up, and are expecting a capacity crowd. I think the fascination with a fourth tier soccer league is dwindling. The MLS is nowhere near as popular in Canada as the Canadian Football League, let alone more popular than the NHL.

I wonder if the Blue Jackets players were consulted?

Still a hard no.

The TV ratings for the MLS in Canada are terrible. Nobody is watching, few people care. And yet they magically have these huge valuations for the teams. I don't know, but the whole thing seems like a deck of cards that will crash at some point.

Named one of the three top forwards

Peterka named Germanys best forward. This tournament is going to do wonders for our young players confidence over the next few years.

In my opinion this is a mistake, but not a huge one. Also, $2.5 million is excessive for what he brings on-ice - I understand the intangibles he brings, but he should have been moved into management where he could still work with players and provide leadership. Maybe it was offered and he declined.

Well, you wouldn't be an owner without a team. But the obvious cities would be Houston, Kansas City, Salt Lake City, Quebec City, for starters.

Worst third round ever.

Calgary - Cow Town Edmonton - Edmonchuk (lots of Ukranians) Saskatoon - Toon town, or the Paris of the Prairies Vancouver - Lotusland Regina - the "city that rhymes with fun" (Mick Jagger quote) Winnipeg - Winterpeg

I'm giving it a solid zero percent chance that Kane ever places for the Sabres. Give or take zero percent.

No

"Spending time trying to get the last word in"? I literally had two posts in this thread. You mad bro? lol

Why would I waste more than a few seconds on a ridiculous post? Because that's what it is.

Your whole post is patently ridiculous.
