Dreger: O'Reilly details more clearly: 2 yrs .. 5M AAV ... 1m salary this year and 2.5 SB ... 6.5M salary next year. $5m? Well, that's not too bad. For 2 years it's a pretty good span for the kid to prove himself.

I think Miller is clearly the problem, I mean, when was the last he scored for us?

Well, after camp. 30 GMs passed on him in each of the 7 rounds. :)

And the other 29 GMs, too! Can't really fault Darcy on this one, he apparently came out of nowhere.

Wait, what just happened here? This isn't how the internet works. I'm on the side of giving Armia the time off, unless he really wants to play. Could they bring him over just for the work-outs and practices, or does that count as a roster spot?

That's kinda how Buffalo sports work.

That's how many games the sabres need to win to get into the playoffs, right?

Huh, I worked at Cannon Design quite a number of moons ago. Interesting to see a design of theirs without windows, the architects there *loved* large walls of windows in their designs. EDIT: Oh hey, some time in the last few days I went over 2000 posts...

I'm not sure I follow that one, we'd be down-grading our goaltending and only netting a pick or prospect back? I think you're undervaluing Miller a bit here.

I'm not sure about the lose part, I was at the game last year where the Sabres lost 7-2 to Philly. Had to make sure I had a beer at all times.

How come the winning game thread is only 9 pages and most of the losing games are 13+? I only saw the first and a bit of the second. Had to shuffle cars around to shops for maintenance. Listened to most of it on the road though.

Just win, baby. Or lose, whichever. Maybe I'll watch if I get the TV working (moving stuff about the house tonight, again).

Better that than the fan.

Is that odd chili-macaroni thing from Cleveland or am I thinking of Cincinnati? I'm a sucker for finding the local "Speciality" and trying that. EDIT: oops, Cincinnati. Never mind, although I'm sure you could find some in Cleveland if you looked.

Thanks Peppy! Shame I can only look at the wallpaper for 6 minutes per game. :)

You're just starting? :) I haven't watched a full game since the Sunday afternoon Pens game. But that has more to do with having my wife move in and a house full of stuff to move around. If I were still living alone, I'd probably have watched the full games more often.

That would have been fantastic.

Guys, he's had 16 hours to get it done, his time is up.

Screw Miracle Day, it's Pegula Day!

You could have just said to call up whomever made the uniforms in 1995.

Prediction: 4-1. Not going to name which score goes with which team.

Cell phones were fairly rare, smartphones all but didn't exist.

It's sad that there are people here that also seem to find it funny to call people girl-names as an insult. Besides, Lindsay makes way more sense since it rhymes better.

Yep, I really should have seen the Ruff firing coming, otherwise it would have been just another game that can wait for later. :)
