It would be naive to think Darcy isn't whispering "tank" into one of his ears. He wouldn't have hired Darcy if he didn't value his input.

That doesn't give me any fuzzy feelings. I'm worried about them. I would even believe they are intentionally tanking over Edmonton's play.

I'm glad it's not that serious. 2 weeks is still a lot and standings can definitely take a dive for the best during this time.

Get Well Soon!!!

Good for them. Maybe we need some of these girls to lace up for us.

Can we counteract this by making a McDavid Oiler jersey? -
Someone has to do something about Neuvirth. This is ridiculous. Someone send him used Kleenex or something.

Anyone else need to have season-ending surgery? Would be a great time to have those pesky wisdom teeth pulled. How about Neuvirth? Time to finally get that in-grown toenail taken care of.

I know, I don't know what's going on here. You'd think the NHL was a charity organization based on some of the talk here.

I don't understand this 1) I want McEichel going to a rival or 2) I want McEichel trying to expand the fan base of a franchise a team that has no business even existing. I want one of McEichel on the Sabres and the other on a team I wish the Sabres never have to play. What ever happened to the Sabres winning a Stanley Cup? Or, is the 0 we've won already good enough?

Edm still has some fight left in them, despite our fire sale. This isn't going to be till it's over.

You're on to something here. Maybe RPTC should be renamed "Darcy Points" or "Darcy Number".

Anyways, I see absolutely nothing wrong with using a brick of bills as a cellphone in Vegas. Doesn't everyone? Another thought, if Kane was an NFL player, a great one, we'd be clamoring for the Bills to sign him.

So we're basically losing 6-1.

Sabres are definitely closer to winning a cup than the Canucks, and probably a lot of other teams that are championing mediocrity. These teams tend to be be highly stable staying in the middle for long stretches at a time. The Sabres don't have that problem anymore. We'll probably be making a strong run at the Cup in 3-5 years while the middlings will stay middlings.

Sabres are pulling away in this contest. Love it. They need to be relentless though and finish the job.

Such a beautiful win last night. Could go down in history as one of the most clutch wins in Sabres history. Almost as great as the Miracle on Ice. I'm sure you'll agree, but the end justifies the means here. I couldn't care less if they win-out the rest of their games with Ryan Vinz in goal just as long as they get that #1 pick. There's no room for moral victories in the CHL and the margin of error is going to be razor thin this year.

This absolutely needs to happen. It would be a big F U to Edm and let them know they have no chance.

A pearsons correlation of 0.41 isn't a strong correlation though.

Pat Malloy - New Buffalo Sabres Skating Coach (new in October, anyway)
kas23 replied to MBHockey13's topic in The Aud Club
What does a skating coach exactly do? Haven't these players been on skates since they were toddlers? I guess I find it strange players can make it so far (to the NHL) and still have flawed fundamentals. Or, maybe they get into some bad habits or become lazy and need fine-tuning ever once in a while. -
I think it's more of a numbers game. The NHL equivalency is likely calculated on the entire rookie pool. By numbers, there's vastly more average rookies than elite ones, so the numbers elite rookies put up is just going to be completely statistically overwhelmed by the rest of their class. Players that go in the top 5 are so far off the curve, its hard to assign them NHLe numbers. You're absolutely correct though in calculating a modified NHLe. Top 5 players should be compared to top 5 players of the past only. Great job!!
