Not that I think it actually works but if the league actively promotes dangerous assault level penalties, I’m going to have 2-3 of those ***** in my lineup to ensure my team isn’t on the short end of ruining people’s future with CTE. You want all your players to be vegetables by the time their 50, lets lead the league in causing them. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Everytime he's gotten a questionable hit, they decided there was no supplementary discipline due because he wasn't a repeat offender and then then next time it happened, and it happened often, that there was no supplementary discipline due because he wasn't a repeat offender. Lather, rinse, repeat. But Gallagher is ALWAYS pushing the envelope. Think I read somewhere he always got away with dirty hits, should have been a repeat offender. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Norcal Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Quick look at AHL goaltenders shows an undrafted Clay Stevenson leading the league in most categories with Hershey. Old friend Erik Portillo 12-6 2.45gaa .923 sav% and 4 pims is being given the year down there even though his parent team is struggling bad right now.

Sabres Fan in NS Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 9 minutes ago, Buffalonill said: Did they go on this run after they fired the coach? Yes. Coach was fired in November after only 12 games. They still stunk after that for a bit, but really turned it around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

thewookie1 Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 Jiricek is rather pissed at CBJ. Feels as if he’s been punished for disagreeing with the staff on his play. Barely getting any minutes and no power play time and now they sent him back to the AHL. There was some fear he may refuse to report however he loves the staff in Cleveland. Can we spin Savoie for him lol 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Without knowing what they're going to do with Mittelstadt's next contract, that'd be a 'no.' Knowing Mitts is locked up LT, the answer becomes 'maybe' but still leaning towards 'no.' 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Knowing Mitts is locked up LT, the answer becomes 'maybe' but still leaning towards 'no.' I worry Mitts feels he got Reinhart’d on his contracts and is thinking he might as well see it out through FA, so you bring up a good point. Then again our prospect pool is flush with skilled wingers, it would almost force another move to bring in an experienced center. Two tricky trades is asking for a lot.

Savoie and Joker😜 I doubt he is available but they need to be all over it IF they are listening. Maybe the sweetener would be taking Elvis back since LeBrun says there is no league interest in him with that contract Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
