5 minutes of sludgy hockey that often doesn't accomplish anything is all I remember. People complained about the shootout, so the NHL made sure fewer games go to a shootout with 3-on-3.

Why do you think it's one mistake? It could be, or it could be a whole string of mistakes that only one was reported.

I skipped it because of the raving.

Hand crank. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/H._L._Hunley_(submarine)

I've been burned too many times by 6K to believe yet. Actually, can we call him COOL WHITE, since 6000K = COOL WHITE (kinda) in color temperature?

Hmmm: 😉 I looked it up, I think there have been 44 2-point nights for G in NHL history, and one 3-point night, Jeff Reese, Calgary Flames, 02/10/1993, SJS 1 @ CGY 13. Sabres had three, Darren Puppa had 2, Ryan MIller 1. Tom Barasso and Grant Fuhr also have 3 and 2, respectively but not as Sabres. https://records.nhl.com/records/goaltender-records/scoring/most-points-goaltender-one-game

Previous Sens ownership was pretty good at "forgetting" to inform partners of details.

Only if we put a -stein filter in for misspellings. 6K? I dunno, but we'll find out of the next few weeks since Comrie is out. He's shown flashes before but always comes back to his normal level. He's still young, but to me, as a highlight-watcher he seems slow to react to anything other than straight-on shots. For that matter, Levi seems to give up big rebounds and loses the puck too, but maybe that's because I only see the best chances and goals.

Saw that some people are questioning Bellichick. It's all lining up; Bills and Pats fire coaches at the end of disappointing years, and the Bills hire Bellichick. At least he's proven he can win with a QB. (kinda kidding, kinda not)

Exactly. He made more in his stint with the Sabres than I'll likely make in my lifetime. As long as he's smart about it, he can do whatever he wants. I logged into Golf Social Media (LinkedIn) and he didn't turn up, but then again neither does Adams. I guess for the Hockey Industry, you know everyone already so posting about synergy and best-of-breed processes isn't really required.

Ooh, could be. But it wasn't him (at least I'm fairly sure). Looked like a local since he was hanging out in one of the booths. I was going to complement him, but he was having a conversation and I didn't want to be rude.

Saw a guy at the Ithaca Farmers' Market today wearing a home-white Darren Puppa jersey.

WTF, what a bad look.

I wonder if JA calling plays at the line is an endorsement, or a repudiation of Dorsey.

Your Buffalo Sabres are going back to where Jimmy Hoffa is.

I see what you did there.

That Chara guy was pretty tall. Taller PK Forward? Maybe not.

If you look at the schedule, they play almost no Monday (1), Tuesday (0), or Thursday (2) games all season. Lots of Wed, Fri, Sat. A few Sunday (4) in March and April. I'd guess almost always on the same 3 days of the week makes it easier for people to find the games and watch. But it means they're often playing 3 games in 4 nights, with a 3 day break after.

(I gotta go shower and wash the stink off from posting that)

Every Canadian-born hockey player wants to play for the Leafs.

Leafs fire President, GM, and all Coaches after 2-8 start; could this be the end of the Matthews/McDavid/Cozens era in Toronto?

I really think this is the year the Bruins start to fall apart

Not sure I'd recognize it from the spelling; phonetically we always called it "gwum-kee".

My gramma's house, early 90s, Babcock St. (not for me though, I never really liked it; MsPie loves it though)
