SABRES 0311

@BlueJacketsPR · 5h NEWS: #CBJ announce the one-year contract for the 2020-21 season agreed to by F Mikhail Grigorenko in April has been submitted to and approved by the NHL. Grigorenko has 22-42-64, 30 PIM in 217 career NHL games (COL, BUF) and has spent the past three seasons with CSKA (KHL).

He’s 30 years old and scored 29 goals in the last 2 3/4 seasons with NSH. Looking at their lineup he’s third/fourth line center. Big money small numbers. I just see all that money and think it could be spent better than hoping he holds down the fort while we keep our fingers crossed with Cozens.

Got some new Sabres masks in. Hopefully the masks are more consistent than the team.

The year we relocate then win the cup.

Here’s a dumb question. When can teams start trading? I’m lost in the sauce with the NHL’s schedule.

I think non whites still have a rougher go of it. However it’s good to see groups like the Aryan Brotherhood and KKK pushed to the fringes of society instead of how accepted they were in the past. I don’t think most people are racist but if one has influence or money they can affect a large number of people. Van Jones said whites have a racist virus. A women said there would be casualties following the 2016 election during an in the street interview.?

I started wood carving or whittling.

Since you asked I think most people today would agree non whites were treated unfairly. The ends don’t justify the means. That said you can’t change history but you can learn from it. If I wanted to raise awareness about bias I’d be worried about how the message is presented. So far I’ve heard all whites have a racist virus and that there will be casualties on both sides as if this is going to be a civil war. The thread be about me? Like I said I stayed out of it until you started acting like another poster was giving you permission to have feelings. Seems a little thin skinned.

I guess I imagined you acting like someone was giving you permission to have feelings. If neither of them are who you are directing the below to then who?

If you know these guys so well its weird you would think one of them is giving you permission to feel a certain way. Just because nobody else witnessed that specific event doesn’t mean they haven’t seen oppression first hand. When did I say I personally didn’t like you? Again, making something out of nothing. If I had a personal problem I wouldn’t mask it through an Internet post.

You are correct that the point is to discuss bias. Hard to have a discussion when you twist words to seem like you are being given permission to do something which is not what happened. The idea nobody can understand what you have seen is based on you thinking you know what they’ve been through or experienced. Essentially making an assumption about people you don’t know. Emotion is good when it drives people to continue pursuing a goal. It’s useless when it causes you to automatically perceive other people negatively. Making assumptions about others that is not true leads to bias. IMO you are heading down the road you are calling others out on.

I stayed out of the conversation because I got more out of reading than I would contributing. That said Eleven and LTS pretty much don’t ever see eye to eye with me. However at this point it seems you are trying to align their words to fit your emotions. Nobody was trying to give you permission to do anything as though they held power over you. I would say they articulated their thoughts in depth and tried to be disarming. IMO your emotions are preventing you from receiving what they are trying to convey.

Not sure. I’ve only caught snippets but a 24 team playoff doesn’t breakdown to a two team final. My guess is eight of the 24 will get knocked out of contention to bring it to a normal sixteen team playoff. However they do this it’s a lot of hockey in a short time.

Thanks for this thread @Brawndo. I’ve been so bored lately but trade rumors jacks me up. I’m also working overnight with no sleep last night so this woke me up.

I came across this timeline from a tweet. I don’t know the rules (if any) on pushing non official sources. Can anyone corroborate? July 24: Travel to hubs July 25: Exhibition games July 30: Qualif. round begins Aug. 9: First round of playoffs begins Aug. 23: Second round begins Sept. 6: Conf Finals begin Sept. 20: SCF begins Oct. 2: Last poss. game of SCF NHL training camps will open mid November. The 2020-21 season will begin December 1.

They are the best parts of the organization and two biggest reasons we watch.

It’s gonna be interesting if groups like these two show up at the same place. Like watching bad cosplay.

Yes. It’s a tangled world of people doing bad things with an ends justify the means feel to it.

They taught them a lesson for stealing a kid last season. Looks like the same plot this season just different people.

If COVID prevents a physical meetup you guys could use Zoom or Skype to watch the game together.

Absolutely

Hell yes you can still say it.
