  1. Would that hit have happened if John Scott (or similar type player) were on the team? Fights are a fraction of what they were just a couple years ago and instigator penalties are why there isn't retaliation, especially in the playoffs. The coaches and players even say so.
  2. "He was known as a cerebral and stoic coach of a Stanley Cup winner and 2014 U.S. Olympic team. He was a television commentator during the World Junior Championships and an assistant coach in the world championships. He was a fourth-line winger, a grinder, who his teammates called “Disco Dan” during his NHL playing days. But who is Dan Bylsma and where did he come from? The answers can be found in the Davis’ backyard on the outskirts of Coast Guard City, USA, a moniker proudly engraved on a sign welcoming visitors into Grand Haven. It’s here Bylsma spent his childhood trying to keep up with his older brothers, who along with close friends knew him simply as “Goober.” Who in the 1970s and ’80s knew that Goober, which has been Bylsma’s nickname since he wore diapers, would be the most accomplished sports figure ever to emerge from Grand Haven? Not him." http://sabres.buffalonews.com/2015/08/21/backyard-to-big-time-how-hard-work-drove-dan-bylsma-to-nhl-success/ I've always said that there is a fine line between being too emotional and not being emotional enough. Roy and Torts take it too far. Goober doesn't take it far enough. At some point you need to say something controversial, at some point you need to confront the officials and give them a piece or your mind.
  3. Hey Koziol, Bettman has nobody to blame but himself for hits like this. He wanted to take hitting and fighting out of the game so most cheap shots go without having somebody being held accountable, not to mention a fear of an instigator penalty. Something like that wouldn't have happened with John Scott on the team.
  4. Goober, SAY SOMETHING!! For God's sake man, show so emotion! I was a big supporter of Goober in the beginning, I'm starting to lose confidence in him going forward.
  5. OK, I've given it a 2nd chance and have spent more time with it than before. It's actually not that bad. It's watered down enough for good mobile use but has enough to do what you have to do. It is missing some desktop features, but chances are if I'm going to use those features I won't be doing it on my phone. Like inserting pics, gifs, smileys, etc. I do agree with the rest, having the ability to skip to the end within a thread, or select a certain page within a multipage thread would be nice.
  6. I'm wondering if Hoff's concussions in Pittsburgh has done him in.
  7. WOOHOO!!! Super Bowl LXII here we come! http://espn.go.com/nfl/story/_/id/14747408/super-bowl-50-history-why-not-predict-next-25-super-bowl-winners
  8. I can't recall what this thread was about.
  9. For those that moved out of BFLO............... enjoy. https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1601554173409242.1073742283.1568222670075726&type=3
  10. I don't know why I laughed at that, but I did.
  11. I remember Luongo stood on his head. But you're right it was clogged. I guess I'd have to see it happen a few more times with different teams to see how it would work out. But thinking back to that game, it did become pretty difficult to put together consecutive passes to throw the Panthers off.
  12. Tampa did it to FL a couple weeks back, down 3 goals they pulled the goalie with 10 minutes left. They only scored 1 goal but did manage to outshoot FL 22-5 in the period and had almost 7 minutes of sustained pressure.
  13. Taking an infant that young to a game is inappropriate, breastfeeding or not.
  14. LMAO! Potvin is so drunk I almost wish there was a 4th period. Goldie and Moller are laughing at him, he thinks they're laughing with him.
  15. Kane's never had more than two fights in an entire season. He's been a pleasant surprise this year.
  16. Consider yourself lucky, I'm watching the FL feed and Potvin is extra drunk tonight.
  17. Sabres can't come back to win, much less score 3 goals in a game. ...................
  18. Guess I shouldn't have gone with Lehner and Schneider over Luongo in fantasy.
  19. My... god.................. Schopp......... is so................difficult...........................to listen..................to.
  20. Yours doesn't look like this?
