We might soon find out

I have a thought that Terry pays top dollar to the Bills staff because the Bills print money, but he scrimps on Sabres staff because they don’t have positive cash flow.

Pretty sure we are

Did Levi play well enough in the preseason to be kept up? Im not sure thats the case. And Ellis was kind of wonky in his start here. It is not a slam dunk by any stretch to say either would be more successful than UPL right now. Either one requires a leap of faith.

Ellis scares me as much as UPL. Granted, with Dahlin gone for awhile, the season is likely lost. Might as well give Ellis a shot as #2 now.

We are gonna get a solid dose of Owen Power on the powerplay now. Hopefully he’s got it in him to step up.

It’s too early for Scotch.

There are no trap games for the Sabres. There are no should wins. Both of those terms assume the Sabres are the demonstrably better team, and they haven’t shown themselves to be demonstrably better than any other teams in the league in 15 seasons.

So, the Blues played a back to back, had a FULL practice in between, had the statistically worst goalie in the league in net, and we got shut out?

SDS fears that day.

And there is no such thing as paper swaps anymore. Anyone sent down to the AHL now must actually report to the AHL team.

So you are saying it’s all downhill after tonight’s game?

How is it different than what you get (and give) here?

Cuz his first game back someone is gonna wet willie his ear hole and re-not injure him. Do I gotta lay everything out for everyone?

Ooo- tah. Duh

Punctuation would help, but that seems to be turning into a lost art.

Haven’t seen a game yet. Have they reduced the cross crease pass plays that led to so many SH goals last season?

By the time all those d men are ready, Dahlin will want out and Byram and Power will have been moved. 4D chess, man.

Yes

The infection part was speculation. If I remember correctly it was internal bleeding that hospitalized him.

I really don’t think it is more common than it used to be, and if I am being honest with myself, I was one of those menaces through much of my 20s. I spent most of the last 25 yrs commuting 45 min+ on rural roads. I saw what you described frequently. Multiple times Ive had to take evasive action with all 4 wheels on a soft shoulder to avoid a head on collision on a 2 lane 55mph road because someone in too much of a hurry decided to make a pass near a curve, or on a hill. And in my dumber days Ive been the cause of someone else taking evasive action. Not proud of it, but I was that guy sometimes too. We are all guilty at times of being in our own world, concerned only with what’s directly in front of us. Late for work, or rushing to a commitment, or responding to something in our personal life. And sometimes we are just over aggressive *****. Thankfully the vast majority of us grow out of it, or just plain stop being in a big damn hurry.

Waiving UPL and having him claimed would be gross mismanagement of the resource. Fireable offense IMO.

You just did?
