Seriously, Rasmus. SMDH.

Seeing how he kept possession of the puck, finished the breakaway untouched and got a shot off, I’d say that’s one of the dumber things I’ve heard in a while.

Dammit, Dylan.

Jose Uribe. There will be no answers to follow-up questions.

The Ref with the gentleman’s diving call on Tage there…

We also likely would never have known who did it.

That’s…. Not the start we needed to see, boys. sheesh.

Should be an interesting 3ed period. Probably not good, but interesting.

Ooooooooof. Eakin and his flaming mullet out to lunch there.

Tage looking like prime Mario there… if only for a second.

Me turning the game on a few minutes ago…

Shhhhhhhhhh…. You’re not supposed to just say the quiet part out loud…

Sabres. If considerations are indeed made in the future.

As they are future considerations, nothing has been given up yet. Nothing may be given up (and likely the high end would probably be a literal bag of pucks) ever, but there has to be at least a nominal amount of consideration on either side, so there you go.

So. Don’t want to make this topic Virginia-specific, so feel free to add, but I have a whole lotta problems with what went down tonight and you’re gonna hear about it. And it’s not even festivus. congrats, Virginia. We’re Ohio now. Surely that won’t end badly. The governor Ivan handle, but buried in the story is the January 6th participant elected as Attorney General. It’ll take decades to repair the damage done to all of us tonight. I absolutely guarantee that there will be a new, larger, Robert E. Lee statue erected shortly on Capitol Grounds. Symbolic of the horrors yet to come. Democrats: the problem is not and never has been that you’re not attracting enough Republican votes. Clinton sold the soul of the party, pushed it to the right, and whet we got in reply was the Nazis. Which was the only place they could go and still make money. Fast forward to now: You’ve doomed us. We’ll inevitably become the Germany of 1938 (We’re already the Germany of 1932) and I fear for my children. Not Even My children’s children anymore. My 10 year old will likely have to engage in asymmetrical civil war to stay alive. Woo.

Narrowing things down to this specific instance: Cozens needs to know that nothing good can come from him fighting, he’s better served on the ice instead of the box, with two fully functional hands. Fighting isn’t the only measure of toughness, and its days are numbered in any event. I suppose we’ll have to agree to disagree.

Dylan Cozens is 20 years old, and as such is likely an idiot of unimaginable proportions, as is literally every 20 year old. That’s why we have coaches. Help kids learn to be not so dumb. I’m aware of what hockey is, and if you’ve been watching much of it for the past 25 years you’ll have noticed that fighting is down rather a lot. To hear extinction levels. I guess everyone’s just a wuss now…. Soon we’ll be putting everyone’s name on the cup every year so nobody feels bad and stop keeping score, probably.

There are many ways to be tough. Dylan Cozens does not need to be fighting. Ever. Come to think of it, nobody does, really, but that's a wider conversation. Giving dude a smile and thanking him for the power play might have benefitted the team more in that situation...

Were I Donnie Meatballs I’d be giving Cozens the hairdryer treatment on high about this. Even if Mitts and the Masshole were out there, it’s not 1987 and there’s just no need for Dylan to be fighting at all ever. Hopefully this gets imparted to him emphatically and he takes the lesson.

Hey guys… game’s still going on… ouch.

Mandatory “Good first period” from Rayzor. I do not agree.

A fully healthy, fully bought-in Jack would be miles ahead of anything the Sabres can get back in any trade going forward. Unfortunately, one of those is definitely not going to happen in this reality, and there are some justifiable doubts about the other one.

Cole Beasley should do something about this.
