What an embarrassing cupcake of an organization. Literally unbelievable.

This has happened here as well. See Jame, who still remains un-free.

This isn’t an actual quote from Donny right?

Saskatchewan =/= Alaska

There is nothing that tells me Pegula wants or would be in support of someone who plays the game like Tkachuk or even a Tom Wilson type of player. I think they repulse him and he would rather lose than employee people he doesn’t like.

We don’t need someone who worst case bounces around the league. We need NHL caliber players with sticking power now.

Okay, Carly Simon, just because they don't like your posts doesn't make them a bot. Sure, in this case it does, but not every time!

I guess you just don’t understand the world of plus sized influencing

I heard Brind’Amour got Brind’Amoured again by Tom Dundon

People want big people to be physical because they are big, but that’s not the way the world works. Physical people get physical, regardless of their size.

Red Bull has been great for “extreme” sports. I’ve never been disappointed by anything they’ve done. As far as their product is concerned, there’s a couple decent flavors but not really for me

Benson seems to have a weird thing about him that’s causing a bunch of bogus calls. I still believe this team has dearly missed a “cagey” vet who can teach these kids the who, what, where, and when to act and get away with it. Seems like any instance of tomfoolery by Buffalo gets called. To me that’s mostly on the players to be better about. I wouldn’t discourage it, they’ve just gotta be smarter. Two slightly different issues that could both be resolved by our front office.

I didn’t see this yet. That would be really dumb. If I had to guess (and this is true) I would guess someone is pulling strings to keep White.

That’s correct. But how you handle adversity is a big factor in determining whether you are a good or a bad team. We handle adversity very poorly.

Because on bad teams there’s countless reasons in-house to that take precedence over outsize factors. Why did our HC force us to kill a 5-3? Why was our top FA acquisition glued to the bench? Why is there still little pushback? Clean up your own issues and officiating is much less an issue. Good teams win in spite of officiating. Bad teams roll over and blame the stripes.

Bad teams don’t get to blame poor officiating.

It’s ***** any of them do it, but this thread is specifically about the Sabres so it mostly concerns their owner.

C’mon, man, a town named Moosejaw would just be ridiculous.

Former top goalie prospect becomes top goalie at age when goalies typically find their footing. If this fanbase weren’t so starved this would have been welcomed in a much different way. Instead we’ve been conditioned that bringing these guys up will get them where they need quicker. I think this team has a lot of evidence to show that isn’t the case.

Interesting in this clip that the announcer says “he gets challenged every get” re: Rempe. Who was the last “challenger” in Buffalo?

Bringing in one player in 12 months isn’t really doing anything at all.

I would swap Tage for Tkachuck in a heartbeat. That to me says it’s a no for Ottawa.

You were allowed to have fun before?

The military was great, but it’s certainly not for everyone. College was also great and also not for everyone either. There’s plenty of ways to stay out of debt (or at least significant debt) and go to school, it’s just most of the time not as fun of a college experience. At the same time, I have plenty of friends who went to school right after high school, took on moderate debt, and had fantastic experiences that I could never relate to having been older by the time I went back to school. If I had to do it all again, I would have done BOCES in high school, stayed in the army a few more years, gone to college on the GI Bill, and then look to get back in the trades.

Good to see him doing well. I hope he can complete his comeback.
