  1. I've no idea about last year. I just don't remember. Player participation would be the concern. The fans won't care and most probably won't even know about it.
  2. per Adams on WGR a few minutes ago. Hopefully without incident.
  3. That's ok. ICE doesn't. He watched practice today and skated after. (Buffalo News.)
  4. 1. No, I really tried to avoid it! Please don't read into anything. 2. No. That's not realistic. He can't practice with the team until he gets the work visa.
  5. The opposite. I believe he is a disciple of Nandor.
  6. There are immigration lawyers that can push this stuff through quickly. I have no desire to cast aspersions upon ownership or management, but something is wrong if they don't have such a lawyer ready to go at a minute's notice.
  7. That's ridiculous. Frankly, it seems unheard of. Players from all over the world get traded across the border all the time and I can't remember a six day wait for a work permit. And more, I had a partner who did this stuff for NHL players once upon a time, and I know it never took him this long.
  8. Debbie in accounting. She's a pain in the neck, always brings the same taco dip on holidays, and usually drinks the last of the coffee without refilling it.
  9. I gotta admit, it's an interesting hypothesis. This is the best chance of an early Boston elimination, so I'm all for it.
  10. Are you new or something?
  11. I'm one of the people who wanted to give Comrie a chance--a CHANCE--at being a decent KA signing--and you're right.
  12. Which year? Signing his own, in Ullmark, would have been a start. There have been goalies available every year since 2020. There still are.
  13. For different reasons, and yes. Granato: He's a development coach. The team won't need that past year three; they won't be youngsters anymore. (Yes, there always will be rookies on any team, and that is not the point.) If he's not leading the team to the playoffs, and if his decision-making and roster selection remains as poor as it has been in recent weeks, out and get a coach who knows how to lead teams of players who are established NHLers. Again, by next season, the Sabres will have plenty of those. Adyms: If the Sabres don't make the playoffs next season, then there still is a problem in net, because the forwards are looking good for the future, the defense needs about one more guy (I know some of you dream of a defense where everyone is top-4 quality but that's not realistic), and that's it. I've been frustrated with him since 2020. Who cares whether it's in the same year? Why should it matter? If they're both insufficient, they're both susceptible to firing.
  14. Pegula has nothing to do with it. Anyway. No. No playoffs means no Granato AND no Adams, as far as I'm concerned.
  15. Next year is playoffs or there is no conversation.
  16. What do feed stores need with plastic AM radio watches?
  17. The building is, I don't know about the paper. But the Grit building is right across from the hotel that I stay at when I'm there.
  18. No, Grit is a ***** newspaper based in Williamsport that tricks kids into selling subscriptions for prizes that never work.
  19. I want to give you the thumbs up, the laughing face, and the Stanley cup emoji for this.
  20. I really wanna know... ...how do they get what was obviously a low-def video into such hi-def today?
  21. "Craig, I don't care if it's 10, 12, or 21, I don't change goalies."
  22. I can't watch any sports yet, but I'm getting updates on my phone and it's looking like 7-0 again unless the Sabres can channel whatever it is that they pulled against the Leaves.
  23. I'm only watching if Levi plays. Otherwise, it's WBC for me. It's may last chance to watch real baseball probably forever.
  24. I really wanted USA-Mexico tomorrow but it's going to be USA-Japan in the final. And I'll likely be spending any sports time I have with that game instead of the Sabres unless I go somewhere with more than one screen.
