Maybe she just likes the dude. I mean really, painting stereotypes and conjecture into this isn't a great look.

Subban, you're off the carousel ^^^

Fair, I edited my original post.

Treating people with respect costs nothing, you'd think OSP would be all over it. But he (based on this account and the goose follies) appears to be just another rich dude that can't treat people he has power over as human beings.

You don't see a reason for someone writing their own biography to paint themselves in the best possible light on a controversial topic? Truly?

I'm truly very happy for you!

Maybe KA should try asking a question and then staring for 45 minutes. 😉

I work in an environment where I feel 100% comfortable to say, "I F'd Up and this what we need to figure out to fix it." My leaderpeople will understand and work trhough it. I'm betting that's not the case with OSP. If you want open and honest communication with subordinates you don't play mind games with them during a meeting.

That's the next book, "Goose on the Loose: My Personal Bastogne".

Now I kinda want to go back and find that old article with with Briere matched with 70s Paul McCartney and Ovechkin matched with Richard Kiel. Crosby's was good too, but I can't remember the actor (was in some stupid teen-ish comedies in the 00s).

We have new rider, welcome IlyaSamsonov!

Some others don't have NMCs in their contracts, I suppose.

If he's an optimist, Batavia. And that the Sabres (as others alluded to) traded for Fuhr while Hasek was already in the system.

Boo, that's one of my favorites. George Lazenby is the man.

Good point in the last few. Chicago isn't going to take less from the Sabres because the Sabres, unlike many teams, can take the entire salary. If it comes down to A Sabres pick + prospect for Kane vs someone else's two picks and a prospect for Kane w/50% retained, I have to think Chicago takes the latter every time. They need the cap hit and the assets. The only way the Sabres make this trade is if Kane forces it (won't waive for anyone else, etc.). We can see if he wants to be a Sabre next July.

Just the other day I remembered telling someone, "Risto and Zadorov look really good together and they're both like 20. I can see them skating together for a long time".

In computer science, a linker is a computer program that takes one or more object files generated by a compiler and combines them into one, executable program. So the Sabres are combining into a team that can step up and execute. Easy.

He instigates some solid analysis and thoughtful conversation.

Based on where it is, and that fire fighters had to cut there way in (??) I'm guessing people have been squatting there.

<<<<<<< I am a fair-weather fan. I haven't watched a game in years. I'm not sure what it says about me that I still frequent here.

With the way the Buffalo diaspora shows up at away games when the team is good, there's no doubt.

That's probably reasonable, really. If the scouting reports line up, Portilo might end up as a back-up. Maybe Marty Biron should have a chat with him about how being a backup in Buffalo isn't that bad. 🙂

I do it from time to time, trying to make it a daily 15 minute thing. Did today outside, that was nice. This sounds like a ridiculous recommendation, but Cosmic Kids Yoga on Youtube. There's no woo-woo yoga stuff, and almost all the sessions are 30-60 minutes and a parody of some pop-culture story (Star Wars, Frozen, whatever). I do it with my daughter (7) but if I were going to pick a random youtube thing to use, I'd consider it because it's not annoying. I've done Peleton's yoga sessions a few times, and they're a bit intense for me. I think the app is like $7 or $11 a month, and if you're interested in their other stuff (the spin class stuff of course but also various cardio and strength workouts too) it might be worth it. It's not woo-woo, but it's kinda high-energy (if that applies to yoga at all) with music and the instructor being kinda shouty. Free trial for I think 2 months. The content available at one time is kinda limited, but I think there are occasional live sessions and new stuff rotating through. I have a subscription to Wahoo's Systm for my bike smart trainer, and they also have yoga and workouts too. I probably wouldn't recommend it if you're not going to use the bike stuff, really, but the strength workouts and yoga are zero-nonsense which I kinda dig. It's literally a person standing on a mat with a concrete wall and floor, like a factory building, doing the workouts with a fairly monotone voice narrator describing what you should be doing. The killer feature for me is you can just set up a plan (Yoga 7-days a week and Level 1 strength 3-days a week, I think I'm doing) and it just puts them on a calendar. This isn't unique by any means, but oh do I love just doing whatever it says and not thinking about it.

Pessimist-mode: - Tage scores no more than 25. - UPL looks terrible at every turn, and the Sabres' goalie purgatory continues - Despite this, the Sabres finish with more points than this season, but out of the playoffs
