This is so smart. Obviously Terry knows what he's doing. (No, he just has a better GM in the NFL.)

Ah, a Battista sighting. The Comet Ping Pong of Sabrespace. How I have missed him.

I think it's nice that the Pegula daughters named their restaurant after Bogosian.

If only a few kids are ready for the AHL at 19, then there shouldn't be a huge concern about this affecting too many players or too many teams.

It even has a screened-in garage.

Oh it's all about Addison and the first. Galyenchuk, or however it's spelled, is damaged goods. Has he actually travelled across all four divisions in just two years?

Been a while! Always loved your avatar. That was a heck of a trade for Minny, IMO

But certainly was part of the Sabres' identity. He's a former captain.

Please, yes.

Not when he got Pominville in return.

They also drafted a QB in the sixth.

Excellent news. Probably because the team couldn't get an irregular jersey in time, amirite?

Gotcha

This is the part I don't get without some context; how was the goalie in harm's way?

Just look at Graham's twitter feed. There's too much to copy and paste, there's good fan dialogue in there, and there are a couple of words that you wouldn't want on this board.

Another good point. I have been in the room in Toronto where this stuff is inspected. (They inspect the AHL equipment there, too; when I was there, a Marlies goaltender's new pads were just sitting on a desk.)

Ok. That's fair.

Hey. It may not be what you wanted, but it wasn't lazy. You try searching for Jordan Binnington's mask in his first game, rather than putting it on everyone else! Because, believe me, I spent at least five minutes on it with various search terms. Not happening. Everything returns his first playoff game, first finals game, first whatever. Same for several other goalies; that was another five. I'm sorry--first, they didn't have the custom mask for him in time (11 days!) and now he's the prima donna for not having one? Dude. Time. For. Bed.

Because he's the goalie and he's the one who wants a custom mask. That's why they all have them--they're a little superstitious, a little stylistic, and it makes the game fun. I don't get what you're upset about, unless you think what follows this is a good look. (It isn't.) https://www.pinterest.com/pin/174655291773718634/ Did this instead. Now the first part of that is stupid, and I've commented on it; the second part is not, as has been explained by others numerous times.

Hey man, I get that you have high expectations. We all do. It's why we're all pissed off. But on this issue, your expectations just don't match reality. Getting one's first custom NHL mask in 11 days isn't a thing. Even the goalie would want to take some time, look at designs, etc.--and he still has to practice and get mentally ready to play his first NHL game in there, too, which is more important than the mask. I'd bet my farm (which doesn't exist, so it's really easy for me to bet it) that if JoJo wanted to wear a plain white, blue, or gold mask, the team would have found one in an instant.

Do you mean to say that Jack Campbell doesn't have a custom Leaves mask awaiting him in Toronto? The HORROR! (Sorry, Swampy. I still love you.)
