Eleven

Bettman is flapping his gums.

It is 715. We do not need this preamble.

This would make a great off-season poll next week.

Yeah I don't get it. Isn't everyone remote?

I think there are going to be players up and down the second through fourth lines, and plenty of bottom-four defensemen.

I want to see some action, too, but the number of players who will be UFAs this week is staggering. Don't rule out that path.

It's 2020. Of course seriously.

If you look carefully at the graphic, it seems that they are spreading the virus to each other.

Looks like Sober October for Swampy...

No--if everyone is required to wear a mask, no one is discriminated against. On top of that, from what I've come to understand over the last seven months, whether you're at risk for increased sensitivity to the virus (or its symptoms) has nothing to do with whether you carry and can spread the virus.

Worth thinking about.

It also discriminates against the less resilient. We're either all in it together or we're not.

Puerto Rico is one of my favorite places, but I can't imagine being able to enjoy myself there right now, wearing a mask and distancing and are the craps tables even open?

I'm thinking about next year's team, but definitely not three or four years down the road, when some of these guys MIGHT actually matter.

Are we supposed to eat that raw?

No more goalies named Carter, please.

He had very little impact in WNY tho.

Oh, he would have to be part of a package, no doubt. Or *maybe* one of those situations where some team needs to clear cap space.

The latter.

The first part is right on. I feel like the team doesn't have time for the second part. Keep it to the virus thread please.

It's too soon for a Steve Barnes joke, isn't it...

It's paywalled. Who does ESPN have the Sabres taking?

This is a near certainty. It is very likely that I will be one of these people.

Who at the Sun? Is it Bruce Garrioch?
