The team is all imprisoned in the most convoluted scheme of rebuilding: poor hockey, injuries, and no puck luck. Enter Quinn: Columbus 10-22 and Buffalo 13-19. It's a matchup of two bad teams. (And just one more win by Ottawa this season (in a complete tailspin and coach-firing) and the matchup of Sabres/Jackets is between the two teams with the lowest points per game/winning % in the conference.)

If you want Benson to be in the Calder-running, just keep him in Skinner's spot, including on PP1. 40 games with TNT and Tuch (provided they regain health) will get Benson into the top-3 in voting.

It’s a crying shame to see the Cowboys get obliterated. Pour it on, Bills!

Not bad for a little furball.

What has to happen to turn the ship around this season?

Tagebacca, lock in the auxiliary power. Lock in the auxiliary power! Exactly. That’s just to get back into contention. Then, they need to sustain 6-4 every 10 thereafter. -

It’s possible, however unlikely, they might find a weakness in the opposition and exploit it. Really, this team would need a 15-5 run to get back into the running, and then maintain a playoff pace the rest of the way. The only way they’re getting this type of run is with some sort of galvanizing event. Capital E Event. Tage goes off (back-to-back hat tricks), they wear the goatheads each game, Quinn returns and is a point-per-game and ignites the power play to a 23%+ for the rest of the season, Levi puts up back-to-back shutouts followed by .930sv% hockey the rest of the way, or they get some sort of team-uniting line brawl where they win some fights and have each others’ back and realize they don’t have to take bantha fodder from anybody. Or they fire the coaches. -
Will the Sabres start the game by skating fast, throwing at least one body check that gets the bench buzzing, and getting a high-quality save within the Knights’ first few shots? Or will they start skating about 13 minutes into the game and already trailing by 2 where they’ve hung their starter out to dry and look like they haven’t practiced their power play atoll? I won’t know, because I’ve got my wife’s company holiday party to go to tonight. Carry on the good fight against Jackikin Eichwalker and his new Empire, ‘Spacers!

With Skinner out, put the kid on the top line and see how it goes. Maybe his all-around game will help them give up fewer odd-man rushes (though he is still prone to rookie penalties).

Jeff Skinner placed on IR; Brett Murray called up
DarthEbriate replied to Brawndo's topic in The Aud Club
Murray's going to stand in front of the crease on PP1 and lead this team to the verge of the playoffs. -
I care. But if something else is going on that day/night, it's becoming easier and easier to float away with the rest of the garbage.

I want him to outscore Patrick Kane the back half of the season. (and I hope by about 35, nay, 55 points.)
