Eleven

Botterill is not up to the task and the Sabres need to replace him now. As for core players, are there even any? There are three guys on this team that I'd be reluctant to see the Sabres not keep (9, 23, 26), and I'd even let them go for the right deal. Yes, I still like Skinner, yes I still like Ristolainen, etc. but they aren't part of the "core" of any successful NHL team.

The Buffalo News article, for those with access, has more detail from Scheifele. He breaks down a video of one play against Chicago: "It’s almost like Jack has the puck already and he’s actually just trying to beat the Blackhawks’ defender. Look at the way he feints his hips toward the boards, he wants the D-man to drop the puck to his trailing teammate. He’s a few seconds ahead of everyone on the ice. Then he beats future Hall of Famer Duncan Keith and draws the pokecheck out of the goalie before putting the puck in the net. There’s like 15 small things that happen in that play that most guys in the league can’t do." That quote is what impressed me most. https://buffalonews.com/2020/04/30/buffalo-sabres-jack-eichel-hart-trophy-mark-scheifele/

Joe Thornton scored a goal for Boston in this game. It was 21 years ago.

I have to one-up this. Sorry. I give you Paris Hilton:

Oh. That's not me.

Over Schoeny?

There's also the bit about misusing Skinner, which Krueger has.

Meh, there's not much else to do.

Fun fact: He was born to an alcoholic father and a prostitute mother. He changes his last name to "Draper" to get a white collar job in NYC.

The Jete, and Pats*, too. He played for every current AFCE team. (Jete, for the uninitiated:

Wow, I pounded that. Washed it down with a glass bottle Mexican Coke, too. If this were a 1970s movie, I'd be smoking in bed while the lady gets up and covers herself with a bedsheet to go to the bathroom.

Thank you. I will read. For what it's worth, they've got to get rid of Cousin Oliver, too. The equipment manager.

The Bills signed Bryan Cox's son?! If COVID wasn't the final sign of the apocalypse, this surely is.

That has been The Athletic for about five weeks now, other than the NFL draft. Understandable, I suppose, there's nothing in sports to write about.

I don't think that is very nice at all.

There are not many doctors that would say what you have. You might have to be the person to lead us out of this nonsense in our healthcare system.

I'm going to Ted's for a burger and onion rings. Let's get fat today!

So I don't get a skateboard. Great.

Before I click, is there any meat on these bones or is it just more nonsense?

Yep. @shrader we want that and police reports. Oh, and I'll take that skateboard, too.

Gonna leave us hanging?

I didn't know that it is set entirely in jail. Interesting. Too bad Lahey won't be there to see them graduate from con college.

He'll be back to normal once this virus thing is over. I've been giving him extra latitude because I know he's cranky right now.

Please tell me that no one seriously believes this.

All I know is that's an awful lot of tanning, when they could be getting the sunshine they need in just thirty seconds a day.
