Did this get glossed over here? Adams stated several times that the rest/watch and wait period of about 12 weeks from time of injury will be up in late May/early June. It seems like the Sabres will either be proven right by then or Eichel will have a much bigger argument for surgery. They're kicking the can down the road, so to speak.

Adam Beningi goes to bat for his female colleague.

KA gives a little credence to dysfunction in the medical/performance/training staff. "I asked some tough questions."

It's easy to root for him. What a spot for him to be in. He's either FDR or Truman. Truman's probably a better analogy. Of course the Sabres didn't just win a world championship.

And Meatballs. Also — reins.

You're good. We're all jacked up right now.

You missed the joke. It wasn't at your expense.

The real disconnect is between the team and the fans/community. Strong statement.

Exactly. It's what a certain someone here does. Sarcasm meters to warp 3!

"You can be fooled thinking a young player is ready." Paraphrase. Interesting. Adams also called the idea of relying on the kids a "slippery slope."

Link?

And continuous!

Constant communication? Even at 3:41 a.m.? He's lying.

Please, mother, not now. The children are still up.

Let's face it, boys. This is our playoffs. Our Cup final. In Sabres hockey, it doesn't get better than days like this. It's truly all we have.

I haven't seen anything definitive on Jack's neck situation. My impression of the hit on Long Island was that something pre-existing contributed to it. Just the way his neck got kind of stuck against the glass... I'm spitballing. It would be nice to know. If it's a one-off, that's one thing. But if Jack has some kind of chronic issue...

Trotz has an amazing turtleneck collection on Etsy. His Brian Dennehy Collection is fantastic.

Dayum.

I give the Sabres a fair amount of credit for posting the video of the presser and publishing an article like this. It's good service for the fans. (And, more than likely, the team knows that in 2021, there's no hiding or whitewashing it.)

At least one of you is running for Sabres Fan President or something. Talk about flip flop.

Clockwise, I take it. But what happens when a fan goes south of the equator?

I don't think Ted Black is relevant here. Or, if he is, what about Kim as current team president? Is it working? LaFontaine's tale isn't all that instructive either. It didn't work for the Pegulas because LaFontaine discovered he wasn't a POHO in any sense of the title. That's on Terry et al, not Pat.

I want to read it backwards.

Same age as my grandson.

For the love of God, don't make us watch Jack, Sam and Risto again. Just put everybody out of their misery, player and fan alike.
