  1. Maybe Andrew Peters needed it more, so he left it in his locker.
  2. Players that need to be traded to keep the tank going: Tyler Ennis, 14 points in the last 16 games. Drew Stafford, 9 points in the last 7 games. HOWEVER, of those last seven games, we've lost each one where he records a point. If intentional, that's some high-level ninja tanking. Christian Ehrhoff, 20 points in last 30 games. He had only scored 5 points before Thanksgiving. He was also -9 before Thanksgiving. He's been -1 since. Cody Hodgson, on the other hand, doesn't want to be traded. After going 12 points in 13 games, he's only recorded 1 point in his last 5. TANKADILLO
  3. Ahaha. Keeping the pick. Suck it, Edmonton. We just got a free AHL player. edit: Or ######. Maybe not.
  4. So we stack Rochester with as many players as we can without waiving them (or in Omark's case: meh). I get it. Move the show to War Memorial Square.
  5. Even skating coaches tell adult skaters that all of the time. There's so much advantage to a deep knee bend, from stability to stride length and power, it's so crucial.
  6. Definitely yes. The fuel for the tank isn't the coaching- the coach wants to win. It isn't the players' attitudes- the players are trying hard and want to win. The fuel for the tank is the quality of the roster itself. We get rid of much of your top-level talent in Vanek and Pominville (and maybe Roy at one time), and the only skilled guy we bring back is Moulson. We've taken a lot of our on-ice assets and converted them to draft assets and prospect assets. As for Rolston vs Nolan, Carp's charts show a definite leveling out after Ted Nolan gets settled in. Rolston's record: 4-15-1, 0.45 points per game. Nolan's record: 11-19-7, 0.78 points per game. There's not enough evidence to say that Nolan is a good coach, but it sure seems like he's better than Rolston. We'd have to see what Ted could do with a competitive NHL-caliber roster, and that's something we don't have. It seemed to go pretty well 18 years ago.
  7. Baseball didn't include the pros. It failed.
  8. Who's getting traded and when? Everybody and "right ###### now." http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_cyO271GChk
  9. I'd call and ask to see if there are plans for more...maybe call the Sabres store or the marketing dept? Avoid feeding the vultures and get the money to the zoo. If they're not going to make more, then have at it on Ebay.
  10. Last night's check list: Check. Check. Check. Check. I actually liked the work he did last night up in the booth with Dan Dunleavy. You didn't get coach or player interviews as readily as being down between the benches, but Rayzor spent more time on what Tim Murray was up to both during-game and in the intermissions. Maybe it's less distracting, who knows.
  11. Definitely an intelligent guy. And sometime before, we had figured it out- he wants to focus on player evaluation and development, so he (has or is going to) hired other guys to focus on the CBA and contract details.
  12. I'm not ruling it out, but I'm sure not expecting it.
  13. Penguins trade some schmo to the Blue Jackets for some other schmo.
  14. Yeah, I don't trust/put up with anything besides NOAA/NWS anymore. This and this, which I keep in my bookmarks, are all I need. I'll analyze my own data. Get your cartoon clouds, green rain blobs, and solid color front lines off my maps. And I'm not looking at your banner ads so I can look at the government-provided weather maps that our taxes already pay for.
  15. Rudy and Weber are the treads on the tank.
  16. If I had to make a legitimate guess, it would be that he was making an "oh, you got burned!" face at the male reporter that got interrupted/beat out on a question by the female reporter. This is supported by the fact Ryan doesn't know who to look at when the question starts.
  17. ###### YOU TRUEBLUEPHD!
