  1. You'd grow a curly mohawk if you could. Don't deny it.
  2. "The details of my life are quite inconsequential... very well, where do I begin? My father was a relentlessly self-improving boulangerie owner from Belgium with low grade narcolepsy and a penchant for buggery. My mother was a fifteen year old French prostitute named Chloe with webbed feet. My father would womanize, he would drink. He would make outrageous claims like he invented the question mark. Sometimes he would accuse chestnuts of being lazy. The sort of general malaise that only the genius possess and the insane lament. My childhood was typical. Summers in Rangoon, luge lessons. In the spring we'd make meat helmets. When I was insolent I was placed in a burlap bag and beaten with reeds- pretty standard really. At the age of twelve I received my first scribe. At the age of fourteen a Zoroastrian named Vilma ritualistically shaved my testicles. There really is nothing like a shorn *****... it's breathtaking- I highly suggest you try it. "
  3. Just a friendly tip: you may not be the best person to accuse someone of overreacting...
  4. I can tell immediately from that title screen that I have absolutely zero interest in watching that video.
  5. Let the guy enjoy his retirement. Yes, it was fun to listen to him, but if he's enjoying his current life, thumbs up to him.
  6. They also never won 2 in a row after the slide started (I know). That's what I need to see right now, but it needs to be more than just 2. Yes, they have taken 6 of the last 8 points with no real losses over 4 games, but there's still no winning streak in there.
  7. Kind of have to throw a misconduct onto that one to keep things under control.
  8. They have to switch goalies in the second, right?
  9. I might not have to switch to Rudolph at 8
  10. This is going to be the first Jersey game all over again.
  11. Someday I want to see a hyper competitive visiting captain refuse to lose a ceremonial opening faceoff. That one might be the closest I’ll ever get.
  12. That's exactly where my mind went. They didn't overlap during their time there, but I can imagine they crossed paths several times.
  13. I knew that arena wasn't designed for hockey, but square corners? Wow, I had no idea it was that bad.
  14. Typically it's a conversation that can't be had beyond opening day.
  15. I'm assuming you downloaded that one ahead of time. If that one was available on the plane, I'm incredibly impressed.
  16. Ahhh crap.
  17. The ordering of the list is curious. It makes it seem like Okposo and Dahlin’s “indefinite” is shorter than Rodrigues’ week-to-week while Sobotka is much longer term. But then Tage listed last, I’m not sure where that fits in.
  18. I wonder if you might get a different performance from the app local vs. non-local.
  19. And it's not like he didn't have a chance to beat out any of these guys. He's been in multiple training camps with the Sabres and with the Amerks. They've had more than enough time to evaluate him in comparison to anyone else on the roster.
  20. Except the ECHL really isn't a higher tier league than the CHL or NCAA. It's one thing if you're made up of the elite from those leagues, but that's not who heads to the ECHL. They're pulling in the 3rd or 4th tier guys from those leagues. So if you're a player in the ECHL, many of the elite guys who you previously faced don't wind up in your league and instead wind up in at least the AHL. Things get watered down.
  21. I don't know, people seem to mention him all the time around here. So both exes are obsessed but refuse to acknowledge it.
  22. Sorry, I have no idea what happened, how that post got into this thread and how it wound up quoting you.
  23. Buffalo is not making moves to stock Cincinnati. The majority of that team is not under contract with the Buffalo/Rochester organizations. It's not their concern.
  24. But they traded a D for this D, so it really doesn't make that chain of callups any more possible than it was before. These minor league trades are always interesting because it's tough for pretty much anyone to figure out what the hell is going on, yet people are still going to speculate about the reasons. And now my random speculation. My guess is that Botterill's only involvement in this deal was as a rubber stamp. Randy Sexton and whoever Tampa's minor league guy is did all the driving here.
  25. I’m not really sure how that makes a case for Wilson over Prescott and Cousins. That’s one nice thing of reading this on my phone, I can easily rotate that plot. The three of them look to be right in line with each other. and am I blind or do I not see Josh Allen anywhere?
