I assume you are too young for the original airing of the final episode, 1983.  

Correct. I watched it in my teens when it was on tv all the time.

I wonder if Norris can stay healthy thru the pre-game skate. 

Ha, his # games before next IR would be an interesting gambling proposal on Kalshi or Polymarket.

The final episode of season 3 is the one that gets me the most.  McLean Stevenson's (Col Henry Blake) last show.   The writers nailed it and so did the actors.

I'll have to rewatch that. Ik what happens and remember how I felt but I don't remember the episode itself.

I imagine either Kozak or Dunne are on waivers. 
 

 

Suprised they didn't send Östlund down.  He's earned staying up, but with him not having to clear waivers expected Adams to do the easy thing.

Expecting it's Dunne that went down, because can't see Kozak clearing waivers.  Tough part of having the 3 headed goalie monster, none of those 3 deserve to get sent down.  (Then again, Rosen didn't deserve it either, but even with only 2 goalies, he'd be down now.)

A bit of a spoiler.  None of the actors knew how that episode would end until they got the script and only Gary Burghoff was given the final version of the script.

Wonder if those will be the actual lines tonight?  Seems Ruff likes to run guys coming back from injury on a line they aren't going to actually play on fairly often.  Would expect those are the lines he'll run with, but it seems he likes to juggle things up to mess with the other team's game planning.

And again, good on Östlund to make it through this round of injured guy coming back.  He's earned it.

Hopefully the return of Norris.  

Hopefully he gives us at least 2 games this time before going back to IR.  

 

Don’t you mean “the arrival of Norris”?

I don't like Tage moving to wing. I'd rather see Norris as 2C to make two stronger lines. I suppose you don't want to mess with the established lines too much

One of them should have been on the ice?  

Technically, they both might've been on the ice.  They don't have to officially waive anyone until noon.

Right now, no info on the Sabres website nor PuckPedia as to who was sent down, as technically Norris is still officially listed as "day to day."

Win tonight and they're at NHL .500 (which is meaningless). But if they do win tonight -- BOOK IT -- today will be the last time the home audience sees them below NHL .500 this season.

It's all sunshine and lollipops from here on out. If they win tonight. You know, if they can avoid getting goalied by Comrie (or anti-goalied by Luukkonen).

Stevenson later said leaving was a huge mistake. He thought America loved him when it actually loved Colonel Blake.

A funny aside... Stevenson appeared on a talk show or variety show after his departure from M*A*S*H and portrayed Blake on a raft holding a sign that said I'm Alive or something to that effect.

I've always wondered if the honchos killed him off out of spite. I've never liked or respected that decision. The company line was that it was meant to convey, basically, that war is Hell.
