Just don’t mention those fish sticks around Kanye west. Im not sure you’ll know the reference, but I could t help myself.
-
He doesn’t even have a contract with the Sabres. So yeah, if he’s playing in Buffalo that means another crazy string of injuries occurred.
-
I've got some serious questions about his football smarts though after watching that. Running out of bounds instead of taking it home for the touchdown? Not good.

Sabres Sign UFA Goalie Eric Comrie 2 Years 1.8 Million AAV

I'd love to know just how many NHL teams do have a good 4th goalie. -
Are we actually looking for updates on Houser? Great story and all, but he's an ECHL goalie who only saw a handful of NHL starts in seasons where the Sabres were forced to use 6 different goalies. He probably does wind up back in Cincy and god willing this team doesn't need to keep signing goalies practically off the street in the middle of the season again.

Ahhh the NBA, where suddenly it's spanish if you put "los" on the jersey in front of the team name.
-
And adding the guy who needed a neck surgery never before done on a hockey player wasn't exactly a "win now" kind of move... or at least not a smart one.
-
I suppose it's a product of having such a deep roster, but I never seen any of these guys ever being the best at their position on the team (an easy claim when two play the same position). And then there's the 7 year deal they've already given to Paul this year. That one will never be back breaking in any way, but I just don't understand it.

I'm having flashbacks to that nobody Sergei Makarov winning the Calder as a 31 year old.
-
I don't know why I'm so naive to think that the 7-8 year contracts are intended for the elite players on the roster. Granted they were signed at different times, but Tampa currently has 7 players under 8 year deals and 2 under 7 year deals. The previous ones I'd consider elite guys on that roster, but these three definitely push the boundaries of that definition.

Didn't they add most of these guys during the past season? I can barely remember who they signed today let alone when they added a bunch of faceless names to the management side of things. -
Well it is at least significantly closer to home.
-
I like to think of this name as a combination of Covid and the plague.

Oh sure, it’s easy to get super facetious when you conveniently ignore a couple key words in the post. But hey, I’m sure every single goalie in the history of the nhl started out as a backup but then became a starter after signing with a new team in free agency. Yep, super easy claim to backup with cold hard facts. -

I'm not so crazy about converting career backups to the starter via free agency, but there really weren't any options here. I think he should have a talented enough blue line in front of him to help out quite a bit. -
And 7 years for a guy who will be something like the 5th best forward (7th-8th best player) on the team in a year or two, if not right now. I don't get it. But they're a printing press, so it doesn't really matter.
-
The market is truly awful. The position as a whole around the league is right there. The NHL has what, 2 elite goalies? They do need more, but it won't be someone above average.
-
I don't know, Pete T NYR sounds like a place I'd go for all my info, the self-proclaimed "die heart NY Rangers fan".
-
I’m happy with the 28 year old Subban in that role over 32 year old Tokarski. There’s at least a small amount of potential for growth there, no matter how minuscule it may be.
-
I'm not sure how much it really means when a poster or two manage to post 20,000 times in a single day.
-
Let's not forget that Hamister's money guy is/was in jail for a while. That tandem would have worked out so well for this organization.
-
What’s Washington doing? Add them to the list of teams with no NHL goalies under contract.
-
It’s too bad he’s not a defenseman because a blue line with Sam Steel and Owen Power would be straight out of the movies.
-
That's an interesting name. Coward, chase... two words that don't go together all that well with a goalie.
-
Clearly hasn't been paying attention to the offseason. Cozens and Krebs are too old for Chicago.
