Need more than that, and no, I can't be. I'm a mess when hungover, which is why I don't get there anymore. Sux. I think I may try to find a documentary on the Ted Sator years. That may help with sleep.

They only will be a $70-72M team if they think they need to store some dry powder for next offseason. It won't be out of parsimony. There is no Larry Quinn / Tom GOlisano problem here.

Moulson-level mistake IMO. If he wants 8 x 7, that does not fit the Sabres' schedule for moving forward.

930. And dressed up.

Ugh; on a Friday I normally wouldn't mind, but I have somewhere to be early tomorrow.

Again. All week long. I'm even cooking right now so I can eat something heavy. Worse yet, I'm even responding to PA hot takes.

It IS VERY notable that you didn't post here when everyone was cheering the trade, but waited until there was some sort of misery involved.

This could be fun. Imagine a society where we're all walking around squirting stuff up our noses all the time!

I think the only way I'll be happy is if the series is "won" by an illegal goal by Dallas.

I don't expect Toronto to do the Sabres any favors. If Anderson comes here, it will be at a cost.

It's reached Buffalo, too. The sunrises and sunsets have been incredible. It's probably traveled to NYC, too, but may not be noticeable there.

I'm too sensitive about anti-American rhetoric on the Internet these days, it seems. Again, stay safe!

Not sure that wildfires understand national boundaries. From what I see, you've got a few around Kamloops , too. Stay safe.

I don't think he'd screw Kevyn Adams over like that.

I've seen a rumor that he refused to waive his no trade clause prior to his last contract extension.

He'll like the team; his buddy is running it.

How does he enter into this? I thought he was laid off or something. And is there actually a press conference about this trade?

He's old and has one year left, is all I can think.

Looks like Foligno and Fiala. https://www.dailyfaceoff.com/teams/minnesota-wild/line-combinations/

I know. That's what I explicitly included it. The team's biggest problem just became goaltending.

Now that this is done? A better goaltender might get them into the playoffs.

Don't start... Agree. Did Skinner ever play on his wing in Carolina?

This also opens up an opportunity for Cozens to play minutes on a lower line. Staal is old, and isn't the permanent solution at 2C, but this team is better than it was an hour ago. I almost used the exact phrase in the above post.

I guess that I see Staal as a better set-up option than Johansson even in his advanced age.

Not really. This it makes it possible for Skinner to return to Eichel's wing, maybe. Or at the very least, Skinner plays on Staal's wing, which is a giant improvement.
