From that search:

I kind of hope so. It will be so much easier for the Sabres to get psyched up for the games with them.

Why do you continually pick, pick, pick? Do you think it's funny? Is it amusing to you? Seriously, what's your problem?

Keepin' it fresh:

As of this morning VGK has less than a 15% chance. 🙂

Nope. That's not it. I never really liked him, even before #2.

I think for many, myself included, Jack became the symbol or embodiment of the Tank and all the other poor decisions this organization has made over the last decade. We wanted him to be the savior but he simply wasn't. Was it his fault? I feel he was a contributor but just one of many. Yet it seems almost as though the instant he was traded away the team's fortunes changed. I don't much like Jack. When he was here it was kind of.... "He's a jerk, but he's our jerk, dammit!" and I supported him because I supported the team. But now he's just a jerk to me. Now that he's gone it feels to me that the air has cleared around the Sabres. How much of that was the symbolic Jack and how much of that was the person Jack I don't know, but in either case I'm glad Jack's gone. And to further justify that inclination, I hope he never makes the playoffs while the Sabres win the Cup in the next handful of years. Is that mature? No. Is that spiteful? You bet yer dupah. Such is sports.

What I was doing was making a play on all the Tage threads out there, nothing more.

It makes me sad when I post a thread intended as a lighthearted joke and people turn it into a political rant.

Upper deck issues at Highmark Stadium played role in Bills stadium deal

Like I said... I think that wasn't management fault; more like it was management deliberate decision. The rest of the organization didn't know it yet but Kevyn was already moving on.

I don't know that VGK front office is anywhere near as capable as TBL?

And neither is VGK! 😄

No, they'll be decimated by Cap Hell.

Thank you for pointing that out. I smiled quietly to myself when I noticed that.

The difference is the direction each team is heading. The Sabres have been hot trash for a decade and are willing their way out of the morass. VGK is sinking fast. The fact is, by trading Jack to them, we've become them and they've become us. Have fun losing even more, Jack.

Oh, we know what you're talking about. We've been talking about it since 2015.
