    Here’s the thing. The Amerks have played a lot of hockey since the Sabres season ended on April 14th. Minnesota’s season ended on the 8th. He still could’ve used a couple weeks to recover. These games would’ve been a fantastic gauge on where Johnson is as a player, what he needs to work on over the summer, and importantly, a chance to gel with future teammates. Now none of this has happened. If he excelled, it would’ve raised some eyebrows that he could be on the Sabres roster next fall. Now, all he has is training camp to prove himself. My guess is he spends the whole next season in Rochester now. This is perfectly fine with me, but I wonder if this is perfectly fine with him. 

    Does he have a choice now?

    Wasn't he dead to the board less than a week ago? 

    How the tide turns.... Group think is a dangerous game. 

    He was dead to the board because it appeared he wouldn't sign, after the Sabres invested so much in him and he had a great path to the NHL with the team.  He made the right decision ultimately so yes, all is forgiven.

    The two across the street from each other aren't good. I mean they are what they are, it's not a fancy thing, but those two are hype over substance.

    John's Roast Pork (that's the name of the place), D'Alessandro's, and Donkey's Place would probably be my choices. Donkeys is in Camden and comes on a different sort of roll. They also close early and Camden isn't a place to fiddle around after dark.

    FWIW roast pork with sharp provolone and broccoli rabe is a vastly superior sandwich and it's the one the tourists don't ask for.

    I got that the first and only time I visited Philly, on the recommendation from someone (DiNic's).  I was underwhelmed.  I wish I'd gotten the cheesesteak instead.

    Novikov definitely has NHL Potential. 
     

    Rumor has it he fell in the draft because there was concerns about him leaving Russia, but there is a report he refused to sign an extension in the KHL

     

    Neuchev is a long term prospect. 

    He'll be conscripted into the Russian army...
