  1. I think Linus has a ceiling of Marty Biron but he isn’t there yet. Ideally he would top out around 35 games per season with a #1 carrying the bulk of the work. As the NHL moves more towards time management, especially with goaltenders, having a backup who can keep you competitive for 35 games will be huge. Gone are the days of 60 starts, especially for sure fire playoff goalies.
  2. Larry Walker will be honored tonight as the Avalanches emergency goaltender.
  3. What? We’re an all volunteer army. I know plenty of people who gave up great careers to join.
  4. Nice shift from Skinner
  5. Mickey
  6. SARS-stock, Toronto, 2003: Justin Timberlake is peppered with piss bottles. No ejections had.
  7. So what’s that—$8m in the press box?
  8. I know of Da Beauty League up in Minnesota. There’s one in Buffalo (maybe a performax league?) as well, but it’s nothing like the scale of DBL. I’m sure others know of more.
  9. Pat is a freelancer and Teddy let the boys play as long as they played with effort and intensity.
  10. But I was just told Ottawa is a team doing things the right way...
  11. I think I’ve figured it out. He’s JSD and just wants his shot.
  12. Chris Taylor is the only good guy there. That team is built on AAAA players, not prospects. This isn’t the lockout Amerks. Not to mention, it’s a Sabres forum. Rochester talk pretty much stays in the Rochester thread.
  13. Yeah this kind of thing does absolutely nothing for me.
  14. I’m most certainly a Reinhart supporter, but I wanted to answer your question on what the least I would trade for anyway. I would accept packaging Sam and Montour for a cost controlled RW making under $6M for the next three years. That would free up about $6m in cap space and allow us to sign another second line RW at around that same cost. Though I don’t think this FA class is anything too special, I would have to look into it more and the trade would be contingent on good options being available.
  15. My sources have told me it’s really good. Take that for what it’s worth.
  16. Just had my first practice last night. First season coaching in a new organization. May I recommend voting to supply coaches with more than 7 baseballs? Volunteers shouldn’t need to spend a hundred dollars on balls. Hope you have a great season! Coaching is easily the most rewarding thing I do.
  17. If someone had other obligations and anyone gave a ***** about the Sabres they would easily be able to sell their tickets at a markup on the secondary market. I swear that whether it’s roster construction, ticket sales, arena atmosphere, or player performance there’s a whole lot of people who have forgotten what a winning and successful franchise looks and acts like.
  18. I’m not convinced that the board wouldn’t have panned picking Draisaitl at the time. There were a lot of concerns about his skating and Reinhart and Bennett were pretty unanimously the best two forwards. Hindsight is always 20/20.
  19. His eye brows and his spooky last name
  20. You’re far better than this. Way too on the nose.
  21. If JBotts gives fourth liners three year deals I won’t be watching next season. It stunts development of young players and it’s poor contract management.
  22. Probably heartbreak
  23. You’ve got unbelievable stamina. This argument was tiring years ago, yet you persist. My hat goes off to you.
  24. JJ was a Panthers fan unless the Canes were doing better than them
  25. It’s almost like team building 101 since the start of the sport has been to build from your net out. How this organization has forgotten that is beyond me.
