  1. Why ?? Did we just not manage to finish up the 2022 friggin' draft. If your opening line includes the words *way too early* why post it here, eh ??
  2. I think this is a good deal. I mean, the Sabres need to spend some money this offseason and he is a good kid and decent player. This way he has a chance to develop more and the Sabres can see what he really has to offer. This contract and money will not impact any other plans the Sabres may have for this year or next.
  3. I like how you showed restraint in saying the dastardly word.
  4. I am 43 posts shy of 20,000. Who would have thunk it 10+ years ago? And yet, here we are.
  5. Thanks. Good point about prospect camp, but maybe that is more for the coaching staff. I hope that KA has a portable fax machine that runs on battrey power ...
  6. I loved when UFA day was always on Canada Day. When in the blazes does it start this year?
  7. Why do fans think that they know better than the scouts and management ?? We always do. They felt this guy was even worth a look at 28 if the player they wanted there was off the board. The Sabres, like every other team, need a steady supply of decent goalie prospects. The Sabres didn't for years and now they are building some up. It's a good pick in a good spot when you have a million draft picks this and next year.
  8. Somewhere. Some place. In the summer time ... Yuri is pleased.
  9. The middle one is especially interesting. My guess is his parents left Bosnia or maybe Croatia as Serb refugees to Sweden during the early 1990s. Ratkovic is a Serb name and literally translates as ... 'War who son' as in son of war, but is usually taken to be warlike. So son of warlike or son of warrior. Ratko means war who in Serbian and the vic at the end of any name is son of, as in Mac or Mc (and no I do not want to start that all up again). In my experience you are a very hot Serb if you name your child Ratko. The most infamous Bosnian Serb named Ratko is Mladic ... also known as 'The Butcher of Bosnia'.
  10. Sounds like a good kid. He is obviously excited to be in Buffalo. It looks genuine. I think it's a good pick.
  11. Really?? How long have you known me? 10+ years right. I think it should be obvious that I read the marriage date wrong.
  12. This is the result of all of yous paying any attention to me atoll. Yous should know better than that by now. Carrion ... Speaking of which, Boris has bitten the dust ... Freddie ... live in Montréal ... awesome!!
  13. Seems that Tage is a father. Three days after getting married. I do believe that is some kind of record.
  14. Ramadan is more like Lent in that it's the fasting month. I really don't remember Ash Wednesday being along the same lines as Yom Kippur and Arafah, which are both considered the day of atonment for all our sins against God and our fellow creatures of God. Marked by fasting, prayers (all day) and asking for forgivness.
  15. Seems strange sending you a beer as a thank you for this information, but it is what it is. Thanks. Now that you mention it I remember Ash Wednesday being a pretty big day in at least one of my lifetimes ago.
  16. I see that we have been given many more options to respond to posts with a thumbs down and power puke and a few other new options. We had this before and I don't think it's a great thing to bring back. In the past it was not great because it became in some cases a vote against particular posters and not about the actual posts. EDIT: It does seem that the nagative thingies do not impact a posters rating. In the past we had several posters with huge negative ratings because it seemed that anything they posted was voted with a negative reaction just because.
  17. The Day of Arafah starts at sunset today and ends at sunset tomorrow. Islam's holiest day. It is our Yom Kippur and is observed in the exact same way. I don't think our Christian Brothers and Sisters have a similar Day of Atonement. Also, Eid al Adha starts just when Arafah ends ... sunset Friday.
  18. Ignore me gentlemen. I don't see very goodly, especially when the damn thing is so small. That's what she said ... Carrion ...
  19. October can't be right. Out west in Canada (Vancouver on 22nd) then home to Detroit on 24th and off to Seatlle on 25th. What's the poop on that ??
  20. Yous all are missing the point of @inkman and the OP questioning the word 'linked'. Inky does not care who is 'linked' to the Sabres. He only want's to know what 'linked' means. Well, Inky this is your lucky day that I just happened to be passing by and can tell you that 'linked' means absolutely nothing. Nothing at all. Zero!!
