  1. PA gets 10 minutes for Unsportsmanlike Conduct.
  2. I don't really have a preference. But I know those (including me) occasionally browsing on mobile might appreciate the faster load time with fewer posts per page, especially on threads with lots of multimedia whathaveyou.
  3. He's not soft because he's been the league leader in takeaways the past two years. That takes serious effort, compete, battle, and skill.
  4. Agreed on both. Compher has the potential to be a great defensive forward. His tenacity and compete is very high for his age, and was probably a steal in the 2nd round. He had a great freshman year at Mich, then took a half step back last year, but seems to be back on track with 5 points in 6 games this season. But I think both of those types of players and the roles they would play on the Sabres when fully developed are more easily replaceable than the skill set and drive that O'Reilly brings to the Sabres. O'Reilly is more uniquely gifted. Plus, the Sabres get O'Reilly's capabilities and locker room influence NOW, as opposed to the contributions the young kids would make 2-3 years from now. This point is also bolstered by the notion that O'Reilly isn't an old veteran - he's only 24 - and has many more years of hockey in him. This makes him a perfect fit as one of the centerpieces to build around. Additionally, I was happy to see the article detailing his invigorated work ethic and his embracing of his new, larger role (first on, last off the ice, etc). It was exactly what I wanted to read after an off season during which he committed vehicular donutslaughter.
  5. YIKEL. JEEACK YIKEL.
  6. 2014-15: Losing is discouraged. ;) 2015-16: Losing is discouraged. :angry: I agree.
  7. You are witnesses at the new birth of Rick Jeanneret Mark II. I hope you enjoy our new direction.
  8. We're underway.
  9. All Jock Jams ranked: http://noisey.vice.com/blog/jock-jams-ranked DJ Kool rolls in at #6, with Jump Around at #4 and some obvious other choices topping the list.
  10. Still funny. ITHOUGHTIWASINCHICAGO IWASNT IWASINBUFFALO
  11. I still think we're spoiled. Have you watched many other broadcasts? Soo many of them are utter crap. We're squeezing the last drops out of Hall of Fame Rick. Duff's a top-notch intermission man. Dan's an above-average play caller in the league. Rob's getting better. May's been bumbling a little, but getting the hang of it. Plus, our production/technical truck has historically been great.
  12. Flyers going to honor Briere tonight. Sabres posted a video of Briere from today of him thanking Buffalo fans.
  13. Srsly. Everyone's all like And I'm over here all like
  14. Stupid Kane getting injured. Now I'll never be able to sell my season tickets for more than I paid for them.
  15. Except it appears like it should've counted.
  16. Hey PTR, just for the sake of consistency, be sure to brag about how much you're fleecing Sabres fans for tickets over STH prices when the team's doing well. I mean, it's your business, but keep putting it out there.
  17. Pagano said today that the idea was to change formations to the odd lineup to catch NE with either an illegal formation or 12 men on. If that didn't work, they were going to take the delay of game. The Colts' players, whom Pagano admits weren't prepared well enough by the coaching staff, did two things wrong: they lined up wrong and they snapped the ball- they were never supposed to snap.
  18. Biggest area of need? Patience.
