A hole that has been there for years and is still there. Everywhere now? I don't think that's true, but maybe for NHL arenas it is now. Amusing tidbit. Borgen and Beniers apparently reside together. https://www.nhl.com/news/matty-beniers-will-borgen-go-christmas-tree-hunting-for-their-home/c-338867588?tid=281396148 Literally everywhere I’ve ever skated over the past 30 years up and down the east coast Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is what they are made out of and if I slammed you into them you'd know how that felt. IT hurts more than you think. Where is the evidence of this close knit team all jumping in and doing anything????? It's a fantasy you have and I wish it was true but to this point in time it's not. Skinner cheap shotting Guentzel (the goon?) is hardly evidence of team toughness. All I said about Reaves was it was a simple cheap stop gap measure that imo would make this team better, so that next time maybe Maroon doesn't run our goalie. Maybe. Idk about you, but I'm still waiting for somebody on this team to hit Kucherov. Just once. When they do that. When somebody does that. Maybe then I will believe you about these fearless kids and their team spirit. Until then, they're still the softer than butter Sabres they've been for years. Glad you're advocating injuring me again. It's a fantasy in your brain, a fever dream, that Reeves deters anyone from anything. Have a great day. 4 hours ago, Curt said: I just think that Reaves is so bad at hockey that it’s not worth it. He is but he is scary!

To clarify, I'm not a huge fan of his, but much like Bill Guerin, I do think he would have brought us a thing we lack and would have increased our playoff chances, even if he didn't even dress for every game. We need a somebody like him (ideally younger and more skilled, but similar) 15 hours ago, Curt said: Simple google search, looks like they are pretty much all plastic.

Like the bogeyman so that will stop a team from... idk looking at Quinn wrong. lol, maybe I should be, but back in context what I was saying was IF we were playing against each other on the ice and you took your stick to one of my guy's heads I would face plant you into the boards hard thereafter. I'd drop them with you in that instance but guys who are afraid to drop their lumber rarely have the courage to fight. Point being again, your defense of using a stick to a guy's head is simply wrong. Just wrong. Lastly Reaves is scary to some, that's what makes him useful. We have no one who makes anyone scared of us in any way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LGR4GM Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 Let's both walk away from this. It's not productive. You think Reeves would help this team make the playoffs. I think Reeves taking any shifts for us makes us worse. / end conversation 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PerreaultForever Posted December 18, 2022 Report Share Posted December 18, 2022 On 12/16/2022 at 3:15 AM, LGR4GM said: Sabres players have to learn to defend themselves and stick up for each other because that's how you become a tough team, standing up for yourself and each other. It isn't by running to daddy every time someone bumps you. That's why I have no problem with the Skinner suspension, touch our goalie take a stick to the face. Grit and toughness require a team approach not bringing in some 10 min a night bottom line guy. You know what's scarier than Reeves? 5 players on the ice making a beeline towards you because you done f'd up. So this is what you wrote. 12 minutes ago, LGR4GM said: Lol you wouldn't know context if it punched you.
