Big Guava

This dude is so fragile for a big D man. He needs to hit the gym and build up some strength in the off-season.

Go to Anchorage, they are pretty much the only place in the US getting any right now

Enjoy...outside of 2 weeks in early-mid January here where we picked up about 50-80 inches of snow depending where you are, it's been a very quiet winter here. Temps heading back into the mid 40s and even 50s for a few days next week in WNY.

Based on what I see with players in the NFL and how quickly they come back from things now, rehab and surgeries have gotten much more effective at getting them back to 100% much quicker than it used to be.

The NFL Salary Cap will reach 400 million.

The first for me by a mile would be Brad Marchand. Skinner was tied for 6th on the list. https://thehockeynews.com/nhl/buffalo-sabres/news/sabres-winger-among-most-disliked-players-in-nhl

It's not like he had a concussion from getting hit and it was concerning...it was a freak injury. He's young, he needs to play.

Meh, that might be at like 5 weeks...at 8 weeks that likely covers everything.

Why? If it's an 8 week injury it's an 8 week injury.

Pegula doesn't like or believe in this model of operation and it will likely never happen while he is here.

Quinn expected to be out 8 weeks after surgery. Probably the best case scenario with how bad it looked.

Not the way it works. They literally cannot via the NHLPA agreement with the NHL via collective bargaining.

Left achilles

Probably because teams went from having 3-4 games in hand to having no games in hand. So technically they didn't really lose ground, the other teams just made up the games they had in hand and they mostly stayed even with them. Could have been far worse

This is an idiotic thread. Of course there have been

I think that much was obvious, he didn't need to say it.

Ugh...re-tore the Achilles?

Exactly what Granato was saying...too much thinking leads to hesitation. Last year they just played freely. This year they are thinking too much and it's causing a lot of issues.

Unreal...another terrible turnover at center ice leads to the backbreaking goal to end it.

This team sucks ass

Well damn...that was prophetic. Levi was reassigned to Amerks this morning hahaha

Why is he still up here sitting on the bench when UPL has locked up the #1 job right now? Comrie would be fine to play the odd game here and there. Levi needs to be playing in Rochester consistently, he isn't improving sitting on the bench here. Unsure why they have him up here, he isn't ready right now. Too inconsistent. Kinda like UPL has been up until recently.

Yes,the common denominator over the last 8 years when we have had 3 massive events of 6-7 feet has been record warm lake temps. Also the blizzard last year, which is widely considered the worst blizzard in US history in terms of duration, snowfall and sustained winds had the lowest pressure ever recorded with a land system and brought winds that peaked at 80 mph here. It was the only time in my life I was literally so scared that I stayed up all night because the house was making strange creaking, groaning noises that I never heard before and I was afraid it was going to come down

It's no coincidence that wilder and wilder weather keeps happening, sometimes all at once. This is not "normal" stuff happening. A hurricane shouldn't ever go from a tropical storm to a Cat 5 hurricane in 12 hours. That's insanity.
