I remember getting a red card in a game. Followed very shortly by my father (asst. coach) getting a red card because he was angry that I got a red card.
We both were in a LOT of trouble with my mother when we got home about an hour before we were expected.
(FWIW, the opponent in my situation also got tossed out, and all we were doing was elbowing each other and joking around; we were friendly.)
To be fair, if any one of us ran a draft, she or he would probably be at least as successful as the average GM.
I know we focus on Sabres stinkers here, as we should, but wow, there is a wonderful world of GMs screwing up out there.
I'm ok with this. Having another center in the pipeline is never bad. But I do wonder whether he will be an NHL regular. (Especially because when you google his name, you get a picture of some baseball player who looks exactly like the guy from Eastbound and Down.)
--Coaches now have *unlimited* video challenges for goaltender interference, offside, and "missed calls in the offensive zone that lead to goals" (think hand passes and pucks that hit netting).
--First incorrect challenge is a delay-of-game minor. Second incorrect challenge, a double minor.
--On-ice officials will review major and match penalties to make sure they are warranted.
--Double minors for high sticking will be reviewed to ensure that it indeed was the opponent's stick that made contact.

This should make games go smoothly...
This is why we cannot have nice things.This is what I meant about pushing personal agendas, and you knew that, and you selfishly chose to push yourself ahead of the community yet again.
I guess someone else can try again. This lasted 12 hours. Thanks again, PA.
For all manner of debates regarding whether Terry and Kim Pegula are "qualified" to own and operate a sports team, whatever that term means. Have at it. I'll see myself out.
