I’m not sure they are able to with licensing. I’m also not sure Toronto fans would appreciate it. I don’t remember the Bills selling Toronto merch outside of commemorative shirts.

Whoops, reading comprehension isn’t my strong suite. Chicago/Philly/Toronto/Montreal all fit the bill still, obviously the rest don’t apply.

Chicago is a major metropolis, as is Philly. Pittsburgh is a well ran organization with Sidney Crosby. I don’t think players have a desire to play in Columbus. Detroit is an original six team headed by Stevie Y. Minneapolis is one of the biggest hockey cities in the US, but I still don’t think players are clamoring to go there.

I really hope whoever we trade Reinhart to has a fan base who won’t spell his name with a D after six seasons. He deserves better.

This team's spirit will not be broken by an 80 point season. An 80 point season most year's put you in the running for the top pick. We can be bad, develop and grow as a team, and get a top pick. The hockey gods will reward this approach.

But when do we get the on-ice tracking data? I didn't see mention of it in the article.

Pretty sure Eleven and I will be holding on to 2019 for a looooooooooong time.

I think he means John Tavares, not John Tavares. Why would you want a lacrosse player (all-time leading scorer or not) on your hockey team over Sam Reinhart?

Oof that’s an ugly bracket.

There has also been massive issues at terminals and ports throughout the country causing delays in transit times. You wouldn’t believe the amount of auto parts flying in from overseas because they can’t get in via ocean.

They do extensively. That would change if you said trans-women using women’s bathrooms. It was projected to occur this summer starting around Memorial Day due to driver shortages anyway. There might be a temporary improvement, but expect a long summer on the gas front. Most the the current shortages aren't even shortages at storage sites. It’s an inability to transport fuel via truck to gas stations. The trucking industry has been a mess for a while now.

All Sam Reinhart does is have 20 goal seasons, it’s BS.

Bergeron has Marchand. Two different types of characters. Ideally you have a Sam Reinhart and a Tkachuk on the team (in terms of character)

Had a cortisone shot today and got my MRI results back on my shoulder. I’ve got tears in my labrum and rotator cuff, fluid build-up, some degenerative muscle issue and two other things that the doctor said way too fast. Hoping the VA can finally get me in with a specialist soon. I look it as good news. It’s been almost ten years of wondering what’s wrong with it and for people to stop dragging their feet. Glad it’s not all in head.

Vilardi’s back scares me. I would rather get Kaliyev or Bjornfot than a first this season. Vilardi’s back scares me. I would rather get Kaliyev or Bjornfot than a first this season.

Everywhere was more hitter friendly last year thanks to the baseballs. That would have been the first time MLB balls were used in the stadium. Will be interesting to see how the ball flies this season.

Vlad is certainly swing dick out there lately

I don’t think anyone we would get from the Kings should be in the NHL next season if we go into it without a top line.

For the record any deal that 93% of Sabres fans would do probably isn’t getting done.

CDC says vaccinated people don’t need to wear masks inside. Wonder how long it takes for states and businesses to follow.

Some were much better than others. Still glad we do ***** like this. It’s ridiculous.

How about a compromise to the above?

re: @Thorny's poll I wouldn't be happier per se if we trade Eichel, but I am resigned to it and feel like we can come out better off because of it in the long run.

Not a chance. Eichel for the latter three and a 2023 2nd that turns into a first if Eichel plays in 80% of the Kings games during that timeline.
