Home of the mighty Wurlitzer!

I’ve never once heard Gretzky called WG. MJ is basically Jordan’s actual name at this point.

If you owned the Sabres wouldn’t you want to watch film with the experts you’ve hired? Seems like it would make one a smarter follower.

That’s not why I’m defending it. I’m defending it because calling people racist who aren’t racist takes away from what actual racism is and is incredibly harmful to dialogue and discourse. Not to mention that people who hold prejudicial views can overcome their ignorance. But not by calling them a racist.

It’s not though... Prejudice-preconceived opinion that is not based on reason or actual experience Racism- a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race Racist statements are rooted in prejudice. Prejudicial statements are rooted in ignorance.

If anything his first statement was prejudicial, which =/= racism. Racism has prejudice in it, but prejudicial statements do not make a racist. You calling people racist is just as harmful towards dialogue as blanket statements about basketball players.

Counting isn’t my strong suit

Glad to see the goathead. Sad to see they ***** up the color scheme.

Let’s not forget these kids are risking their professional livelihoods to reach UFA status. I would guess that’s the biggest reason most don’t pursue it.

Da Beauty League is played in by men. Again, because this needs hammering home, beauts is more associated with hockey lingo than women.

Rest in farts?

Beauts has far more to do with hockey lingo than women.

Anyone who is still upset about JV is softer than puppy fur. They should truly be embarrassed and re-evaluate their life. They obviously have a difficult time dealing with emotions.

Yeah I’ve been thinking people are way overestimating Dahlin’s second contract. $10-12m would be by far the biggest second contract ever for a defenseman.

I like the deal but just wanna make sure I have this right: Miller has good fancy stats as the most protected defensemen in the NHL and will be fine taking on more responsibilities without having it change his fancy stats too much. But Risto would not have his fancy stats improve from taking on less responsibilities and moving on from being the most overmatched defensemen. Because he is who he is at 24.

Standing room only would be my guess. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but Buffalo hasn’t had SRO since the Aud.

I hope the bring in a full time radio guy

Playing two and a half seasons in the AHL is the same as playing in three AHL seasons. Unless you’re just getting more specific, I’m not sure the point you’re trying to make. He didn’t stick in the NHL year one and two, year three he did.

I would love nothing more than to have the first Sabres jersey I buy to be a black Reinhart goathead jersey. I will be incredibly disappointed if I cannot.

I must have missed Hoss saying that. With all the rules back and forth I more or less started skimming.

Make the poll! That’s perfect offseason board material.

It was protected in that they had the decision to defer. Someone can correct me if I’m wrong but I think normal lottery protection isn’t deferrable like that.

In an ideal world it would be $6.5m x 3 years. With that contract and the money coming off the books, there won’t be an issue with re-signing our guys. Worst case I over-pay and throw $8.5m x 2. He fills out center spine this and next season. Again, we have a ton of space next season. That contract would allow us to add another wing as well. So not $19.5 no matter what, but close to it. I expect him to be 65 point player this season and in the 50s next. What he brings to the room is worth the difference.
