  1. Yep. Went from little chance to no chance.
  2. Yeah, but how many OT winning goals did Hagg have, huh? How many?
  3. The league doesn’t have the balls.
  4. And there is no D in Cody Hodgson, either.
  5. Yep. It wasn’t just a good riddance, it was a great riddance. Perhaps the finest riddance of all time! 😂
  6. Sorry, but I don’t give a crap about players that didn’t want to be here for whatever reason why they didn’t want to be here so there’s no reason to dredge up that old argument. The Sabres sucked, the coaches sucked, the management sucked and he just couldn’t take it anymore. If a player checks out and doesn’t want to be part of the solution, especially after getting a long term lucrative commitment from the team he wants to quit on, then good riddance.
  7. He wanted out of Buffalo well before he injured his neck. He screwed his own pooch for his prime years here.
  8. Could be the Letterkenny skids.
  9. He’s certainly one of them. Just another igmo who doesn’t know the difference between a quarterback and a passer.
  10. Who considered Allen a “write off bust?” Because nobody in the league, from scouts to pro personnel directors to GMs ever did. Not for a minute. You must be referring to those talking head pundits who manufactured a narrative to support their unfounded claims. Some of who still can’t admit they were wrong.
  11. Thousands of acres burned in a Pennsylvania wildfire in April. Wildfires in the western US are a regular occurance.
  12. Meant to link the run stop info previously.
  13. The details of the Oliver deal show it to be a very team friendly deal all the way around. Great job by Jimmy O on the sructure. And for those lamenting his poor play, take a very close look at his entire games. When not hindered by the high ankle sprain last season, he routinely gets QBs off their mark and ranks high in run stuffs as well. Sometimes it ain’t about the raw stats.
  14. I like all 18 of them.
  15. Every time I tune in to watch these games, which has been sporadic since game one, the Amerks seem to be getting dominated by a superior opponent. For all the speed the Amerks possess, Hershey seems faster to loos pucks and faster to make decisions; just imposing their will from one end to the other.
  16. How many times do I have to repeat myself as I’ve stated at least twice now how OF COURSE the five guys in front of him bear responsibility as well. It’s a phucking team game! Your position on goalies is intractable. You simply can’t fault them for anything that occurs in a game. When UPL couldn’t stop a shootout attempt to safe his life, did you blame that on the guys sitting on the bench, too? No understanding. Head in the ostrich hole. Only pay attention to the end result. Laughable. 😂
  17. Right. I have absolutely no understanding about what I saw. Goalies can only be challenged when the conditions in front of them are perfect in every way. I think we are done here.
  18. If it really was about playing for a contender, then why would Ullmark have agreed to come back if KA gave him more than the Bruins? I’m really not interested in re-hashing all the reasons players had for wanting to leave a crap situation. We all know the history.
  19. Again, as I said previously, I am not dismissing the poor D play in front of him. But do you not see that a goalie needs to make a simple save when the play breaks down in front of him? As good as you say he was, he wasn’t good when it mattered most. Imo, a good goalie stops two of those three third period goals. Let’s not revisit the same argument we’ve already had about UPL. I say it’s a combination of poor D play and poor goalie play while you seem to think its all about poor D play alone.
  20. I don’t blame him in the least. But when a player says the ONLY way he will play for you is for more money when you’ve already offered the SAME amount he’s agreed to play for elsewhere, then he can go pound sand. It HAS to he about more than just the money AFAIC. And I don’t blame other whores for simply trying to make a living, either.
  21. As if his native Sweden is a tropical winter vacation destination. I wouldn’t take Ullmark back in a million years after he showed himself for the money grubbing goalie ***** that he is.
  22. I prefaced my initial comment by saying it wasn’t all Suban’s fault so yeah, uncovered players were an issue, no doubt. What goalie doesn’t benefit from sound D play in their own end? And perhaps I should have said “puck control” instead of “rebound” because he lost sight/control of the puck on one of their 3rd period goals and simply couldn’t move laterally to his left quick enough to stop another. Terrible technique. Opposing players are going to be left open during games. It’s simply part of the game. Good goalies need to make stops when that happens, especially at crunch time, especially when his teammates screwed the pooch. Malcom came up short. But as has been pointed out by others, that’s why he is an AHL goalie.
  23. Can’t blame it all on Suban, but his technique leaves a lot to be desired, especially rebound control and moving laterally. A good goalie stops two of those three 3rd period goals.
