Weave

Add it to an actual lifetime of suffering and you know why I only contribute snark to the forum now.

You have way too much old man in your Sabrespace game to have been only 7 in 1993.

Every team ends up with contracts like this during the 2nd half of a players career. It is the natural price that needs to be paid to have very good veterans on your team. Avoiding these deals means you are committing your top veterans to cap out at about Zucker level.

Nah. The thin line is between love and apathy.

My recollection is he played a fair part of 1 season at center when we had a couple of injuries or something up front. It didn’t last beyond the roster issue. And had a few games the next season. He definitely was not drafted as a 2 position player. He was all D in high school. I do seem to recall it “tainted” a 20 goal season as he did play forward for a notable portion of the season.

Because you are the only one that believes your bull *****.

I really needed a good laugh today.

I certainly didn’t get that read off Thompsons’ interview earlier this offseason. I forget the source now, but he seemed concerned for this teams ability to turn it around. He seemed quite frustrated about it, IMO.

Until about 4:30 its just the 5th Monday of the week. #CrankyAF

There is no salary cap on team management. Its not my money. Spend what it takes. Drill a ***** well.

I had no idea Corey Sarich was in the league that long.

I just can’t get that level of emotion anymore. I need a purple pill for hockey.

For me, the lowest point has been an ongoing saga. My interest is basically at the bottom of a reverse plateau. That depth was hit quite some time ago. I can’t really define when the bottom of the trench was reached, but my god its been a long damn trench to trudge through. Furthest point from the last drink of water resonates with me however.

I think he is rehabbing a knee injury. I swear I read that somewhere.

I’m tempted. Saw them about 10-12yrs ago at Darien Lake. They put on a good show.

Taint. About as apt as it gets.

If we re-sign Kevyn Adams we will never need to sign a GM again.

I don’t see how further enyoungifying the roster is in any way ideal. Ideally, Rosen has a great start to the season in the AHL and some other team that isn’t in win now mode wants him in exchange for a good middle 6 veteran.

I wasn’t convinced I was interested in McTavish because we need more experience in any upgrades. But now you’ve convinced me I don’t want McTavish regardless. We don’t have enough margin for error to expend assets for another Dylan Cozens.

I base 4yrs on my projection of where my retirement savings will be, when I clear my debt, and how long I will be paying for 100% of my health insurance. I haven’t done a detailed study but Ive made some estimates of what my budget will look like. I will probably do a trial run of living at that budget for a year or two first before pulling the trigger. I do plan to do something part time at first. I have an idea or two in mind. I have grown quite weary of corporate life and have to actively fight the urge to say “Im done” these days.

Yes. However, Golisano demanded the organization be successful. I think that is 100% of the difference in the two eras. No. Golisano implemented video scouting. It was all done while Regier was GM. Pegula actually reversed it.

It does seem to be a talented top 6. Coaching is the biggest limiter, and will almost surely hold back any claims of “one of the better units in the league”. *sigh*
