  1. You have got to be kidding me, eh????? https://www.npr.org/2021/08/25/1030918537/spencer-elden-nirvana-nevermind-baby-cover-lawsuit
  2. I have to say and with respect, of course, that there is no better name for a Swedish coach than Hellkvist.
  3. He and others don’t know what to really tank means. Maybe @SwampD is right and they are not old enough to remember 2013?
  4. Maybe we need to focus on getting through this offseason (we need to sign Dahlin and some others) and then the upcoming season first. I can't think that far in advance. NO!! A THOUSAND TIMES NO!!
  5. The bottom line is the Sabres have Dell and not Linus, so it really does not matter if Linus is better. Linus is better. So, what? Let's hope that Dell is okay.
  6. Dell? There is no real difference. Maybe @pi2000 will be right.
  7. What a terrible thread that was / is.
  8. Geez ... I have loved every single one of mine. Is that Dell guy still involved with the company? Now, he was very annoying.
  9. Who is the Sabres #2? Unknown, I bet. Who would load up the first pairing with Power and Rasmus? I think Power could be our #2 on the top pairing. Was Weber paired with Suter? Keith and Seabrook (SP?)? I think it will be a nice problem to have one day. Where do you put Joker and SamSwede (I can't spell his name)?
  10. What in the blazes is going on in here?
  11. https://www.tsn.ca/radio/toronto-1050/jeanneret-on-returning-to-call-sabres-games-for-a-51st-season-1.1684967 He really does not sound great, but maybe it's the quality of the audio?
  12. And ... Damn ... he was only 62.
  13. RIP Brian ... Great on sax and actually wrote most of the lyrics.
  14. News flash ... Fox News is a cult.
  15. Your sarcasm metre needs a tuneup. Actually, in the list of things that showed his leadership qualities the fights were not a big part of it. He showed that he is willing to stand up for his teammates.
  16. Speaking of Dahlin ... is anyone concerned that he is not signed yet?
  17. They insurance for that?
  18. I think it was a conclusion that was reached in discussion with Sam, his agent and the Sabre management. I believe that in that discussion Sam's agent made it clear that Sam would not be prepared / willing to sign a long-term contract with the Sabres, either now, or at the end of next season. At that point the Sabres were in agreement and said that they were prepared to move on and said they would not be offering a contract for this season and would finalize a trade of Sam as soon as possible, so long as a sufficient return was achieved. This is most likely. On the other hand, the other reasonable possibility is that the Sabres told Sam's agent that they were not prepared to offer a contract. I would think that this possiblilty is about 25%. Probably less. The thing is I am not confident to say either happened. I think the first situation is more likely, but I would not say that is what happened.
  19. Maybe? With all the yakety yak going on we could have missed the big announcement ...
  20. Your latest post is not all about talking hockey. The proof is in your final word and in the reply it generated.
  21. Jack does when he plays. Very similar to McDavid actually in the sense that neither has gotten their respective teams anywhere. One could make the point that Jack does a better job at this than McDavid, because the Oilers have a better roster.
  22. Oh, can we get a kiss and make up thing happening between @mjd1001 and @Thorny?? This thread is bring out the worst in us. Who in blazes started this thread?? Oooooo ... never mind .........
  23. Welcome to page 278, same as the last page and the page before that and ...
  24. I agree that there was a lot between the lines and both Sam and Risto have been traded. So, it is most likely that both parties decided it was time to move on. People post things as fact when they have no way to know these facts. Unless they are real insiders, as in working for player agents or work for the Sabres, there is no way for any of us to know exactly what happened. That's my point.
  25. How do you know the bolded to be true? Are you Sam's agent? Are you KA secret assistant? And his statement about scoring goals in meaningless games meant little to him is exactly what I expect him to say. It does not mean that he wants to be traded. It simply means that he wants to play meaningful hockey in April, May and June. All hockey players will say that. None of what you describe was 'played out in the open'.
