dEnnis the Menace

We've also been on the PK a lot tonight so I'm not surprised at all that we're being out shot like that.

They just confirmed: 10 min penalties. I really am puzzled as to why that was called. Any explanation?

haha seriously. I was thinking the same thing.

Is that what they both got? that's kind of crazy. Pommers drawing another penalty!

another interference call! good job by Pommer to keep his feet moving.

wow. what a slide by Miller! good save!

exactly. crap! miss by Ennis there, followed by the penalty on Vanek <_<

totally worth the 2 minutes for that. Trade Kaleta for Kessel for two mins? any day haha

I like the new demeanor of this team. Anyone so much as bumps Miller, the team goes at the guy. Good change.

Sabres can really take control if they score on this PP. Good job by Patty to draw that penalty.

wow. Leafs pouring it on As I'm typing that (^) Pommers scores :lol: :clapping:

true, but as DeLuca said, their positioning so far has been impressive, as that was the only shot during that 3+ min span that he didn't see.

:lol: I said the same thing to my sister. I'm guessing they gave out free towels or scarfs for the game?

Just saw the end of period stats: outshot 13 - 5. The kicker? 11 of those shots were on the powerplay. We NEED to stay out of the box this period. PK looks good at least.

I was so happy last night to watch Tom Brady and Patriots implode. Made today that much better

Happy Birthday Chz and LaLa! Beating the two teams I hate most would make the start to the season so much sweeter.

Went and picked up my new suit! Can't wait to put it on for interviews (although, it seems like the first time I'll be wearing it is a Semi-Formal dinner with my girlfriend next weekend :flirt: )

Job hunting. I know a few of you got new jobs not too long ago, and I followed what you all had to say about the unemployment process, but two weeks in and I'm going crazy at my house! I've been trying to apply for at least 3 jobs a day between Syracuse and Buffalo (I've sent my resume to 20 + companies now). I've been going running outside around noon or so almost every day (my dog is starting to hate me for that), and then going to the gym around 9 at night. I have even started to re read my FE Review Manual to brush up on all of my engineering skills. My girlfriend has started helping me make a list of things to do to get ready to move out (I'm still living at home, but that'll change with whatever new job I get). I just hope these companies get back to me soon. Also, half complaint: a year ago today I weighed in at 267 LBS. Today I weighed in at 235 LBS. I've hit a plateau with weight loss, but I've still lost a few inches off my waist...now I need to go buy a new suit for interviews because my old one doesn't fit. Off to the suits thread lol.

I missed this... ;)

Sorry I've kind of taken an absence lately, trying to focus on job hunting, and getting out of the house to not go stir crazy (I've started to really enjoy running outside in the snow...my dog, not so much) Anyways. Marrone: I like the hire. He took a group of 1 - 2 star HS recruits at Cuse and turned them into a respectable bunch. He wasn't left with much to talk about when he took over, and he was able to turn them around. He did great as the Jets O-Line coach (they were top 5 rushing when he was there), and he did great as Saints OC ( top 5 Offense when he was there). Rumor has it (ESPN) that Marrone is already interested in the Jets DC. He's a free agent so it's doable...and apparently he wants out of the Jets org (turned down an extension). I like that we didn't take Lovie or Wisenhunt. Neither has been too impressive lately (Chicago's Offense is crap, as is Arizona's). Lovie would make a great DC tho.

Sorry for your loss man! That's awesome that she was at that game though!!

Thanks all for the kind words last week. Since then I've applied for unemployment, rolled my 401(k) into an IRA, and sent out around12 more resumes to companies. ALready got turned down by three. I'm going stir crazy at the house with not a ton to do, although, I've caught up on all my TV shows, and movies I got got for Xmas. Also had to put my student loan into deferrment for the time being. I cannot wait to even start getting interviews.

Just got laid off. Would've been nice if one of those other jobs I applied to had gotten back to me before this happened, but I'll roll with the punches. I've got an hour to pack my stuff up. F'N Fantastic Friday. :death:

of course...who wouldn't :flirt:

:lol: :clapping: I just installed a Sudoku app on my iPhone. Hopefully that will keep me busy for a while. If not, there's always pocket tanks... ;)
