One of Murray Botterill and Adams is getting assigned 20-21 I donât care lol We can talk plan needing the appropriate amount of time all we want but Kevynâs era is still 4 years deep, thatâs simply a fact. Appreciate you are talking timeline of this particular plan, though -
A good start

Iâm sure you are correct it is the plan. But your statement of âwhen was the last time we could say that?â doesnât apply, thatâs my point, cause we canât say it now. Levi may absolutely prove to be ready, but you asked when was the last time we could say we were entering into the season with 2 quality goaltenders and saying Levi is a quality NHLer goaltender right now based on all of 23 games and an .899 sv% doesnât seem fair, does it? Regardless of your personal belief that itâll be A-ok
-
Levi is not proven as an nhl goaltender I donât care where your bias lies, heâs not a proven âquality goaltenderâ

Possibly. For the record, I understand the somewhat hidden true subtext of your post was an implication that we, like New Jersey arenât far off, but I canât agree they are very analogous situations. Not least because, well, they made the playoffs last year. Step backs for a young team are common, itâs why I theorized last summer that I was worried our 91 points was the âahead of scheduleâ thing and lo and behold: looks like it was Actually making it last year puts them a great deal ahead until we actually finally do it. Speaking for myself, making it even once would go a LONG way. So much so that Iâm saying next year itâs a strict necessity re: justifying an active following of the team -

Funnily enough, of the teams not currently in a playoff spot in the East, New Jersey is given the best odds of making it -

I donât think Iâd be worrying if the opponent was whoeverâs first overall: we are at the point where we are just playing out the stretch, the results donât matter -
Up from 0.5 yesterday lol
-
These things could happen, though unlikely. The bigger ever-more-looming issue is that thereâs an end line: the shrinking runway is our biggest enemy. We canât just do what you outlined, we have to consider the result we need in the next set of games, as well. Because that 4-for-4 immediately loses its lustre once it becomes 4-for-5. Such is the nature of being 8 points back. So, we can get that 4-for-4, but if itâs exactly that, and not a 6-for-6, weâll be 6 (the Power of Owen compels you) points back, with a mere 6 games to play. The walls are closing too fast and Artu isnât here anymore to bail us out.

Breath of fresh air, indeed. 1-0.

Blue Jays are back

How many times have we even gotten 3? Once? Twice? -
Why should Granato and the assistants be brought back?

Thorner replied to LGR4GM's topic in The Aud Club
Keeping Granato into next year ensures Adams a shot with a new coach for â25-â26 If itâs a 2 year shot thatâs 7 years of runway total for Adams right there. Easy. Brawndo has theorized a similar timeline -
Byram given maximum fine for Interference call on Crookshank
Thorner replied to inkman's topic in The Aud Club
I thought Crookshank was a cat -
Bernier syndrome but with vibes. An Adams mouthpiece Pretty good player, some laughable player comps in wake of that big trade, but nonetheless capable if properly slotted. But not captain material imo i lost my willingness to say they had the ability to buck the odds and make the playoffs when he gave that excuse filled interview. It was dead then

So we are at 73 points after 73 games? Sometimes those âwhere you are at thanksgivingâ stats provide a pretty good statistical sample -

Sabres will need to win out to match their point total from last season
