  1. If this is a signing intended for Rochester only....great! If there are no other defense signings planned, then I am disappointed.
  2. People may think I'm nuts, but IMHO UPL is already playing as well as he can, meaning I don't think he'll get much better (unless the team changes in front of him). On the other hand, I wonder that Comrie could actually improve more with more games, regardless of how the team plays in front of him). I won't go as far as to say Comrie will become anything above average nor that he is the answer to our needs going forward.
  3. On a different note - Is Pegula responsible for the condition of the arena or is that outside of his control (and spending)?
  4. Maybe someone like Arturs Irbe could help again....or someone like him.
  5. Maybe some changes with the assistant coaches would be in order. I'd like to see some that have stronger NHL coaching experience on their resumes.
  6. I agree. Levi does not seem "fragile" in his demeanor and has maybe been used to playing like a Hasek for Northeastern. Maybe his appearance can inspire the team to play a little better in front of him.
  7. Kyle is done.....but Z still has gas and plays the kind of game that is missing too much from the rest of the group. I'd like to keep Z and I think he would be fairly cheap too. Maybe he can retire as a Sabre
  8. I'd like to see some trades or signings to get a two or three players who can play a heavier game....hard forechecking, battling for puck possession, going to the front of the net, screening the goalie, etc. Ideally they should have speed and can backcheck well too.
  9. DG - still citing stress and anxiety, but maintaining they will get through this. Ugh....now saying to keep the game simple....how about learning to neutralize high quality scoring chances in your own zone (just my opinion). Ugh, now he's using the "trauma" word....unbelievable!!! I'm getting to the point I'd almost rather hear Ralph Kruger (joking)
  10. I may not be sympathetic enough. IMHO - all of these players and coaches have been competing for probably the majority of their lives. Yes, this is the NHL but any athlete who has performed has likely been in tight races, playoffs, pressure packed situations growing up. This team should therefore not be so "fragile" that they can't deal with some pressure and stress, so I don't want to hear Donny talk more about this being new and hard....as they should know how this feels already.
  11. So how will Donny try to sugar coat this one in the post game presser? "I like how we battled back and won the 3rd period" and/or this is a good way to have a good mindset going into our next game......blah, blah, etc.
  12. When's the last time we had a line with 100+ goals? Nice to see!
  13. Sorry to repeat myself, but please don't let Saros get on the plane out of town....kidnap him, drug him, whatever!
  14. Congrats to Skinner on another 30 goal season! Ralph Kruger still sucks.
  15. Maybe we need to have another episode of "Between Two Stalls" to ask Don Granato some tough questions....since our own regular media guys won't do it.
  16. Sorry, but this team is making me feel more like George Costanza coming out of the swimming pool!
  17. The Kid's line is the only group that has a decent +/-. Cozens and Quinn are 0 while JJP is a +1. Mitts is also a 0 while the rest of the team is all in minus territory.
  18. SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT, SHOOT....ah forget it, it's no use!
  19. Penalty for pushing a stick to your own player???? I thought you could not do that to an opposing team's equipment, but did not realize you could not help out your own team
