SABRES 0311

The post about a parent frequently picking their kid up from bars stuck out to me. Overall it’s better than drinking and driving. However, if you are old enough to get into a bar you are old enough to get a cab/Uber. A parent’s job isn’t to make it more cost friendly to go out. A parent’s job is to teach them to be responsible. Like make sure you have enough money for a safe ride and not just for drinks. Mommy won’t always be there and that time can unexpectedly come earlier for some. If their ride falls through then that’s different. At least they made an attempt to have a good time responsibly.

Why do these guys do this? They make so much money and could live such comfortable lives including their children.

Sabres games is life.

Cmon man.

Not disagreeing with questioning the situation. That said some considerations would be size and scope of the assistance. Also, if this was a rear echelon type of group their absence could be negligible as opposed to a front line element. Turkey would be a country Ukraine might see as useful if/when this escalated. Maybe an act to ingratiate themselves. Then again…who knows? Edit: I forgot a separate thread was created for the quake in question. Mods please move as necessary.

I almost want to see how Quinn does with TNT and Tuch. Nothing against Skinner in fact a talented veteran presence on the second line might make it even better.

7.8 earthquake in Turkey and Syria too.

His comments reflect on him.

I could live with that. Still prefer my idea but reality is yours is much more likely to happen.

All Star Skills Competition sucks. Spent the last 15 minutes watching guys shoot at surf boards. Can’t wait for the No try defense of a meaningless All Star game. Whoever comes up with this stuff stopped caring a long time ago.

Yes. No more shootouts or three on three in the regular season too. You play five on five until someone wins. If that only gives you twelve hours until the next game then you should have won sooner.

How do you know? You can’t see him.

Two DMen in the right corner with the center somewhere other than covering the guy two feet in front of UPL. Joker one on one with the forward and Power looking list on where he should be.

To be or not to be.

Nope. TNT decided you the viewer care more about how much ice time players had on the PP.

Instead of seeing the PP clock we are shown time on ice for each player.

TNT out muscled the defender there. Straight shoulder and forearm strength.

A little glove to the face equals two minutes. This hockey or soccer?

Those guys don’t want to be here. 😁

He was ripped! Don’t know what he said/did probably because he was before my time.

I’m excited to see Power next year. I bet he forgoes a slump like Dahlin had. DG seems to be a confidence builder and with a full NHL season under his belt, Power and Dahlin will be a one-two offensive push on the backend. More importantly I believe Power’s defensive awareness will be improved. He still loses coverage sometimes but I think it’s inexperience causing uncertainty on when to cover a passing lane or provide puck support down low. I think that will be a noticeable improvement next year.

Heard about TNT and my immediate reaction was

Fair assessment. Talent is great to have but how does the talent mesh with linemates and system.

^^^OK so everyone agrees^^^
