  1. I've seen a couple of Panthers rebuilds first hand, I don't think I've ever seen a team get so depleted of all its talent as this team has. Although I'm sure it's happened, nothing immediately comes to mind. I just can't imagine how bad they would be if Nolan couldn't squeeze some effort out of them.
  2. That's no excuse. He's getting paid either way. You give me the 50 grand he's making to play this game, I'll make sure somebody pays for being in front of the net. Not sure if it would actually work but at least I'd make an effort. Yup
  3. Fantastic effort by Stewart on that goal. I don't think he even moved.
  4. Uh.... you're right, my bad. Either way, they were taking things way out of context in an attempt to create some sensationalism.
  5. Milbury was very animated during the pre-game show. He tried to spin it on Nolan saying how difficult he has been to management because he doesn't want to re-sign. He also said about PLF that if he didn't like that Pegula is the boss, then don't let the door hit him in the ass on the way out.
  6. Does anybody ever imagine how good the post-Briere/Drury Sabres under Ruff could have been if they had half the work ethic this Nolan team does?
  7. Oh my god, are the NBC clowns really taking quotes out of context to try and spin this on Nolan?
  8. Right, it doesn't take that long. ESPECIALLY when you have unlimited cash, a TON of cap room and 10-13 top two round draft picks in the next two years. They have everything at their disposal to do this as quickly as possible without sacrificing any long term success.
  9. It's a day and a half until the trade deadline. It's almost five months until Bills training camp.
  10. Of course it does. However Ristolainen and Kesler aren't on the same level as the McDavid comparisons to Crosby as a generational superstar; the type of player that you completely build around. I don't want my team to be focusing completely on one player, especially considering the risks of the draft lotto where we might not even get that pick and we tanked 2014-15 on purpose. As much as it didn't work under Darcy, I still believe that in today's hockey the most successful teams are ones that build around a core.
  11. I don't care about Jairus Byrd! WGR, get with the program will you? :wallbash:
  12. I'm not comfortable putting all my eggs into the McDavid basket. What happens if he busts his knee and misses a season? What happens if he starts off his career with a few concussions? What happens if he turns into a disgruntled pro athlete and the second his contract lets him go, he catches the first flight out of BFLO? I'm much more comfortable building a solid TEAM with the several draft picks we have. We have enough picks now. Let's keep what little we have left, focus on the draft, focus on re-signing Ott and let's get this show on the road. This means keeping Ehrhoff and Myers.
  13. Exactly. And he's the kind of player that will be playing 24+ minutes when he's 38 years old too.
  14. I'm perfectly fine with Ehrhoff, thank you.
  15. NO! NO! NO! JUST STOP!! We have enough picks, we have enough cap room, we have enough money. Let's have some semblance of a team going forward!
  16. I heard Dags was going to be on a line with Stewart and Hodgson.
  17. Where does it stop? A team needs some veteran leadership to rebuild around. How in the hell is a team going to build and improve when the average age is 19? This is getting ridiculous and I'm starting to lose confidence in this team moving forward.
