Tampa in 4 or 5. IMO it is a mismatch and the Montreal run is about to hit a brick wall... ...and F Eric Staal

I’d be willing to help!

I was going to guess Goyette, prior to reading any of the posts in this thread. Would have been a pretty good guess

🎶Hello darkness my old friend, I’ve come to talk with you again...🎶

Thx!! 👍

I know the gun part is more about hunting, but I just got my pistol permit and looking for a 1st time pistol recommendations. Probably won’t carry to start with, but would like something that would be good for target shooting, home safety and personal defense, but also compact enough if I decide to carry in the future, it would be a good choice

Without a compliance buyout in the next 2-3 years, there is no way they are ridding themselves of Skinner. It really sucks, but that is the only way. 😞

I don’t like the Habs and their fans who invade KBC to begin with, but after the ***** effort Staal gave in his short time here, no friggin’ way will I cheer for them. I will even cheer for the Tampa cheaters over them.

My turn.... The Sabres will hire a new HC before the start of the season...and Jack, Sam and Risto may or may not be traded this offseason. How am I doing so far compared to Dreger?

I’ve probably mentioned this in years past, but.... On a related 1970’s Buffalo sports note, the four or five years when OJ, McAdoo and Perreault were here at the same time, were just terrific times to be a Buffalo sports fan.

Maybe one of my fellow oldtimers has the answer to this... Who gave the line, the name “French Connection”?

Yes. I’m not saying you want a McNabb type in your top pair, but if a team can’t find a place for a player like him in the top 6, then they will have a tough time beinmg successful in the playoffs.

Businesses of all types who are raising prices in the name of Covid. Some may be legit price increases, but I have a feeling many are just gouging.

Ok. Thanks. Hope I didn’t ruin your day.

I’m sick of hearing that Adams wants 5 or 6 pieces. Stop with the quantity for quality trade think. Get a very good prospect, a top 6 forward, and one or two 1st round picks.

Who needs a physical presence on the blueline? Don’t you know the answer is to have 7 PMD who don’t have a clue how to play in their own end. McNabb is a holdover from an era of hockey that is gone forever.

I hope Kevyn had a chance to interview Hakstol. After all, it’s all about him building his embarrassing and limited skill sets...not about finding the right HC.

I remember when we used to have signatures here, that for the longest time, I had an exchange between Rene Robert and Larry Quinn as my signature, that ended with Robert putting Quinn in his place. 😂

So sad. By today’s standards 72 is still young. Another boyhood hero gone. 😢😢😢

8 mil for Tkachuk, 9 mil for Skinner, and 6 mil for Okposo(two more years)... and who will the 1C and 2C be?

So we are back to “video scouting” is the way to go. 😉 It’s all a blur now, I can’t even remember which regime(years) thought “video scouting” was the way of the future?

Sorry, but I don’t ever buy “player X was ruined because he was rushed to the NHL”. There is no way to proof this. Maybe they are just mediocre players who were going to have the same end result even if they had spent 1-2 years in the AHL.

I fixed your post.

😞 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Those of you who aren’t old enough to have seen the Sabres in the 70’s, missed a special time in Sabres history.
