dEnnis the Menace

let's say no for this year, and yes next when we're like 4th or 5th worst :rolleyes: :flirt:

agreed. I thought it was Ted Black that said something of the sort, not GMTM.

you know, I wouldn't have been surprised. lol no biggie. just baffled me was all haha

I strangely feel bad for Nashville now :unsure:

this is how I feel as well. There is nothing he'd say that I wouldn't rather hear come from GMTM or Ted Nolan.

6/19 + 1/1 = 7/20? no?

:clapping: :lol: well played. I took the time to read it. it's a nice gesture for someone who has been there since the beginning for that team

I didn't say they needed him to hit the floor, I'm saying my friend on the inside told me that I shouldn't be surprised to see him still in a Sabres uniform next year. There was no other context with it other than GMTM has a lot of plans and Leino isn't in the longterm but he may need to be in the short term. thanks guys. My contact is within the organization but I can't say where (and no, it ain't concessions), and they are someone I grew up with in Buffalo and trust with my life. take from it what you will. if they're wrong than so be it, but they haven't been wrong before with anything else they've told me (and btw, they wouldn't tell me anything about Patty L)

ran it 10 times. Buffalo won 5 times. Got 5 different teams the other times (Anaheim, Carolina, Florida, Edmonton, Calgary). This scares me lol

I don't either, but I was told that some stars need to align in order for them to be able to buy him out. I'll see this person this weekend so I'll have to engage in some more talks.

that was actually my exact response to my contact. It also included a face like one makes when they have seen or heard something that is so disgusting, it can not be unseen or unheard.

he looked as if he was turning a corner prior to this year...but then he flipped a 180 and went back down. I had high hopes for him before, but after this year's showing, I don't know what to think. Finding positives in a lot of players is hard after this season because of how bad the team was in general.

great job by Guggenburger. Hopefully ROC can keep it up, with the reinforcements and everything.

. I think it was well known that a few players didn't want to voluntarily tank, but at the same time a lot of them phoned it in without a fight too.

I agree with this. We're already overturning the roster so much. You might as well let the coach bring in his people that share his vision of the team to move forward. I think that is the best way to restructure and rebuild a team.

I was told by an insider (I won't say who to protect them) that I should not be surprised to see Leino stay for next season, and that there may be a few surprise moves (wouldn't tell me what yet). That's all I'm going to say on the matter but I didn't want a bunch of you to be uber shocked.

That was a great episode!!

I really hope McBain leaves because I cannot stand to watch another season of him... I figure we'll take a stab at Ott or Moulson. Not sure we'd get either though.

agreed

I too hate the Nascar numbering system that he has. If a kid wants a high number, fine, but if someone wants something lower, give it to them. Is there reasoning behind it?

Leino stays We draft Reinhart Tallinder, McBain are gone Ott does come back Grigs is in AHL next year but is our primary call up Enroth and Nuevirth are our starters Isles defer to next year we get St Louis' first this year Stafford is named captain

That's pretty awesome.

I really wish I could without stirring the pot too much. Our departments are already having communication issues as it is, and mine is like the bastard child that nobody pays attention to, but we consistently beat our goals and overachieve just to get noticed...which we in turn get a "next month we expect more" instead of a great job... :censored: I like what I do...I can't stand some of the people that are here tho! gonna find that anywhere I guess though.

adults that choose to act like children at work. seriously! I didn't sign a set of calipers out (because they belong in my lab anyways) and the technician in the adjoining lab got pissed about it, so to spite me, he threw my test reports out that I had printed but hadn't gotten over to grab off the printer yet. He then acted like a child about the whole incident telling me that had I just followed the rules, he would've too. you're 40+ years old...are you ###### shitting with me?! And I can't complain to anyone above me about this individual because it will get turned back on me that I can't play nice with others...not that this guy is a loose cannon and a complete ass. so glad today is my Friday. I cannot take any more this week! :censored: :wallbash:

People need patience. I am in a dept. of 3 people. I only have so much time in a day.
