Eleven

There's no need to read between the lines when the printed text is clear as day. Botterill sucked as a GM.

Yeah, that used to happen, and the referee's discretion was inconsistently applied, so now it's automatic. Frankly, this is better than leaving it up to the refs to decide whether it was intentional. I'm not sure it warrants a two minute penalty, as you say, but discretion is a bad thing here.

I hated all of the teams left already. It's time that Tampa ends the Isles, and hopefully whichever team wins does so 4-0 so we can move on to next season.

No NFC North in-division game is a lock this year, IMO.

The Sharks were an expansion team.

75 leaves room to be a buyer at the trade deadline without losing much. 70 or 71 means that there's no way the team will be a buyer at the trade deadline.

It was at least a county-wide reminder to wash your hands. Came with an Amber alert-style signal. But like @spndnchz says, it was supposed to be a test.

Anyway, happy birthday, Scott!

On this particular date, too, of all days.

I don't have time to read through the whole thread to see if this is covered, but Chad wrote a subsequent article explaining that he expects the Sabres to come in at $75M or higher.

So that's what the phone alert this morning was really about.

Wow. Get well, chz!

I'm not playing either one with PA.

Because every time I see the Seinfeld episode with Mr. Bookman from the library, I still think about it. Liger's cameo was impressive.

Like a bonus?

A light-hearted reference to our argument about libraries about a decade ago.

Are you kidding me? I just googled the score and decided I would watch the OT within the last 60 seconds!

I still want every asset, including cap space, directed towards a 2C first.

I could see this.

With the exception of Stastny, I don't see what you're trying to do here. Is the goal to just get older at each position? I don't see improvement in either the Letang or Kempny proposals.

I assumed you were referring to the Jimmy Breslin book, The Gang that Couldn't Shoot Straight. Libby is a free app one can use to borrow digital versions of a book from the library. All one needs is a library card and a device. I would bet that @LGR4GM sees it as a portent of evil.

I cannot imagine cottage cheese without canned fruit. Anyway. You, and @Weave are being involuntarily drafted into this: https://www.sabrespace.com/community/topic/28511-hard-luck-league-fantasy-football-aka-taros-league/ Just do it. It won't cost you anything and it will make people happy. @PASabreFan I wouldn't mind seeing your acumen. Goes double for @LGR4GM I will name my team "Cottage Cheese Swamp" if all of you join.

I see that and I immediately back away and try to call someone who knows what all of that stuff is. I think I recognize my first iPhone in there.

The second time in three hours that this has been mentioned to me. I'm borrowing it on Libby tomorrow.

Not what I meant. Sometimes, for people with addiction problems, getting away from their regular spots are a good thing. Yes, even if their regular spots were regular only for a year or so.
