  1. I do love this thread, but why was it bumped? Did they do it again?
  2. Any word on whether Saturday's game will be televised? (Not ESPN+, actual TV like last week.)
  3. Ever notice how some Irish people pronounce "Cassidy" differently from "McDonalds"?
  4. I'll unoriginally say, "Get Well Kim!"
  5. So Gallant finally explained why he scratched Kakko, and the explanation is a non-explanation; he just felt more comfortable with a severely injured Strome (who couldn't finish the game) and Dryden Hunt, apparently. I like Gallant, but this was an absolutely unjustifiable move. https://nypost.com/2022/06/13/rangers-gerard-gallant-finally-explains-kaapo-kakko-scratch/
  6. One day more...
  7. That is a press release and not an article.
  8. I still want to know more about these Irish pronunciation conventions. McEnroe just crossed my mind, too. And McIntyre. I'd say it's the vowel, but McNamara is still out there. Edit: And then McAdam crushes the vowel thing.
  9. McNamara, too. I have always wondered about this.
  10. I don't think that's the right one, and Josie's avatar drawing came from a skills competition.
  11. No and never. "Conference finals" or "conference final" is just stupid. End of discussion, Barb.
  12. The article--which I can't seem to come up with right now--was about how Buffalo arguably--please consider that adverb--had the best player in each of three leagues: NHL (Perreault), NFL (Simpson), NBA (McAdoo). So if we triangulate those three, about 1976 or so?
  13. Perreault was arguably the best player in the league at a point in his career (Sports Illustrated certainly thought so). Hasek definitely was. Miller never was. And I like Ryan Miller an awful lot.
  14. Pernell Karl is one of my favorite non-Sabres of all time, but I'm not sure about this idea right now.
  15. Correct. I also have TB and COL in the final, but I got a lot wrong on the way there.
  16. Well, we've got a fun matchup here. @jsb leads, with 339 points, and has picked Colorado. I don't think that @pastajoe, who is only one point behind and who also has picked Colorado, can catch jsb. @Andrew Amerkand @Huckleberry each have 333 and each picked Tampa. So if Tampa wins, we're headed to a tiebreaker.
  17. I really want to know why Kakko was benched.
  18. Good. F the Rags.
  19. Your point, which also is mine, stands regardless. Number retirement shouldn't be so cheap.
  20. You know what to do here. Also, edited now, because we did not go back in time even if it feels that way.
  21. Should be reserved for Hall-of-Fame-Plus level players who spent the majority of their careers with the team.
  22. Does anyone need a recap of my thoughts on numbers being retired? If so, let me know. This is stupid.
