Weave

I think this sentence right here ends the argument. I mean, even as recently as 5 years ago did anyone really foresee any NHL'er flirting with any of Gretzky's records? Until the reality of the last two seasons kicked in, they were still expected to be untouchable. Ovie may not pass Gretz, but the idea that it is even being bandied about is pretty incredible. We all figured those records wouldn't be touched. Different eras and all that. yet here we are. And Ovie doesn't drive his team's play? Seriously? He's one of 2-3 wingers in the league during his career that could and did.

I agree with this. I do not have optimism regarding Casey. I am decidedly neutral on his possibilities. For me, at this point if he develops into a good NHL'er it is a bonus, because we shouldn't be planning on it.

Abso-freaking-lutely. We can't afford to gamble on any of our C prospects. Get a real 2C, and if we end up with too many of them I am sure there is a market for one of them if we really can't plug two of them into the roster somehow. By the time Cozen and Mitts are developed and showing they are a legit top half of the league 2C Jack will be 26 or 27 and more than half his expected career will be over.

Well, it does say "in their prime", so those 2.5 seasons weigh heaviest. and prime Soupy contributed way more to an excellent Sabres team, including playoff performance, than Housley ever did, Housley was never not a controversial Sabre.

I think it has to be Ovie. He’s at the top of the scoring lists every freaking year for like ever. Isnt he chasing Gretsky’s goal total now? Hes been flat out dominant for his entire career, which we can now call a long career.

*wonders if PA goes for the seat or the backrest*

Sabres in the playoffs? FFS end the season. What a travesty.

I'm more than a little shocked that Housley is getting more love than Campbell, especially considering what he did for us in the playoffs.

Maybe I need to venture out and widen my search to include counties that have more people than cows.

You’ll shoot your eye out.

We have found a total of 2 bottles of sanitizer since I started working from home 5 weeks ago. Cant even find isopropyl alcohol to make our own.

Yeah, we went through these discussions with Bylsma too. It’s very chicken and egg. Do we suck at possession BECAUSE we dump it in, or do we suck at possession THEREFORE we dump it in. Two coaches now out of three that didn’t seem to trust this roster to successfully carry the puck into the o zone. And the one that did game plan carrying it in was a failure as a head coach. Not that the other two lit the world on fire.....

The Sierra Club getting into bed with an industry founded on burning forests has cut any last threads I had that were tied to optimism. That’s unthinkable to me. Images of Sierra Club members handcuffing themselves to trees in logging areas is still in my head. They didn’t call them tree huggers for nothing. The left has sold out to profiteers too. Lump them in with Big Religion. What a long strange trip it’s been.

Look up Wolfgang Pucks pizza dough recipe.

Pork or veal? Either is delicious.

Or Rasmus Ristoleinen.

Going by what’s been done to date, I picked Soupy as well. And Rammer gets the nod here too. Excellent shut down guy with good puck moving skills.

Senility.

Saffron or GTFO. Curious what the inferior substitute was.

I thought I couldn't get any more cynical. There is a fair amount of bias in this video. Not unexpected. They cut off the fuel cell conversation before it got to the real meat and potatoes of it, but what they did show was a correct representation. Greed is killing us, plain and simple.

And dying at an increasing rate. Maybe ignorance is bliss is what you are searching for?

Speaking of Sweden. They aren’t holding up as a gold standard.

I spent a good portion of my career working on hydrogen fuel cell technology. Highly touted as green energy, It was follow the money there too. Heavily gov't subsidized (by a Republican no less). Had big oil support too (hey, someone has to supply those hydrogen molecules). I'll watch it. Would not be surprised if Dems were in a follow the money game. The primary difference between Democrat and Republican these days is which industry is important to you (aside from the whole openly courting racists thing of recent).

How many people do you know that are actually isolated though? The number of "essential businesses" open way exceeds what you can honeslty define as actually essential if we are being honest. So a really high percentage of people are still going in to work. I know in my household, I've been more or less sheltered for goin on 6 weeks now, but my wife is in the office every week day. Therefore, we aren't really sheltered. Even though we've avoided unnecessary outings, there is no way to know if she was exposed on say, Thursday, while at work. Then on Friday we hitch up the camper and head to the campgrounds, interact with the person taking money and dealing with reservations at the campground office, use the campground bathroom during our stay, etc. It's not a stretch to see where camping scenarios lead to transmission. For the record, I feel the same way about boat launches and marinas. When the marina closures were announcing the fishing community went ballistic. The primary argument being, I'm on a boat in the middle of the water with my household family members and you can't get any safer. And what do I see on social media yesterday and today? Fishing pics with groups of grown men, obviously not household members, and group pics in boat launch lots. Yeah. You wanna get that ***** closed back down? Keep doing what you are doing and get this virus on the uptick again.

You have a risk taking personality. Your everyday life shows that you are comfortable with risk. That is the difference in perspective here.
