Vesey did not grow up playing hockey in Philadelphia, MS. He is not from a "new" hockey family. Vesey knows how a locker room and ice time works. It's hard for me to imagine he has an "entitled to play in your top-6" attitude. I think he is looking for the best chance to "earn" a top-6 roll. He will do what he has a right to do under the CBA. If he signs it'll be like finding money in the laundry. If not, no ill will from me.

Everyone in the Sabrespace Universe have a safe and happy Independence Day!

Or?

I really do like the "potential" Vesey has in the NHL with this group of Sabres. It took some time, but because of our ownership, hockey dept management and facilities the Sabres are turning into a destination. Today we're Costa Rica...down the road? I wouldn't say hockey heaven, but hey we could all be goin' to Sizzler!

Good morning campers...draft day! https://youtu.be/yPEfxNbvcjo?t=14

I guess I got the impression someone was checking video prior to a challenge during the Nashville game. One of the announcers made mention Phil Housley was talking to his tie prior to their challenge.

I just don't like all the delays. Same rules apply. If you're wrong you lose your timeout and may not challenge again.

I think challenges should be made without communication to the bench. Coaches should make a decision based in "the moment" not after a video coach reviews for you. This would stop a lot of this mess.

The paint is no longer peeling from my walls and a blue fog is now leaving the back bay of Biloxi for gulf waters. I was so torqued when the Phlyers tied it up. Great for Girgs and my hats off for "Indiana" Johnson. He makes every game an adventure.

It's autotuning...FINALLY!

I think this is already in Around the NHL: 2015-2016

What's the name of this thread again? You see, this is why people lurk. The sense of entitlement is strong in both of you. A light hearted response to someone else's thought/joke gets driven through the zamboni doors. Did I say take your kid down to Wal-Mart and beat them? I'm not that guy. Consequences for poor decisions on the other hand (take the car keys, grounding, detention, two minutes, no money, extra work, apologies,etc.) are all good. The "trophy" could be anything in life. As for not being the right place, is this not where you were talking about a "like" button? What? You can only read what I wrote and not what I said? A mod should be able to see through the trees. Why so serious?

I'm afraid of a world run by adults who were never disciplined as kids and got trophies just for participating.

I'm a long time lurker; only commented a few times. But, please do not ruin Sabrespace and include a "like" button. I don't need a trophy just for showing up.

You're right. Awesome and then some. I read this when I got home from work last night. Inspired, humbled, proud are just a few of the words I'll use to account for the time in my recliner last night. PA...I salute and thank your Dad. Nice work helping get this to paper.

I watched The Pacific over a couple days. I have an uncle that was in the Marines in WWII (He's passed on now). In 13 months his unit made four major amphibious assaults in the battles of Kwajalein (Roi-Namur), Saipan, Tinian, and Iwo Jima with his division suffering more than 17,000 casualties. He didn't talk about it much.

+1. I do not want to take three steps back and step forward one. I like Eich!

I just don't see how this could happen. Mc (What's his name again?) is being looked upon as a national treasure. Edmonton would burn if they lost out on the next Great One.

I I heard that too. He also said he rated him as a 19yo that could make an NHL team and be successful.
