  1. I’m not having this argument anymore, I’m sorry no one that watches the games, looks at the stats can make this argument in good faith anymore. He gets defended on EVERY goal. Look at the macro, I beg you it’s ok for a goalie to be NOT TERRIBLE why is goalie the only position some fans pretend just doing the bare, bare, BARE minimum is enough. It’s the NHL
  2. Just has the genetic features of one
  3. 3-1 pens cumulative : sabres pens 4 - isles stars 4
  4. 9 shots...why? and the answer isn’t “Tuch”. It’s one small component curious effort so far Pittsburgh is gonna take down the isles here, gotta battle back and do our part
  5. Now it’ll need to be..really good? Unbelievable
  6. Hey at least the whistles aren’t being swallowed ehhhhhhhhhhhhh?
  7. Comrie takes a penalty then lets one in haha
  8. Tuch certainly not to blame for that particular horrid giveaway
  9. We need to win more face offs on the PP
  10. Ya, there’s gonna be enough space for an Elephant or a few in that Room until this team shows they can make the playoffs. Seems pretty karmatic to me
  11. He employed the principles of gravity
  12. Have no reason to doubt KA currently. I expect he targets some added d depth in the summer and yes, jury is out on Stillman
  13. Very poignant segment on sportsnet just now detailing what drives Freddie Freeman. spoiler alert: it’s his Mom. lots of onions being cut apparently
  14. According to NHL.com’s recent panel Power is still our front runner, fwiw: finished 3rd in the ranking actually
  15. I thought about the two years thing too but I think that was just linguistically functional. “How much we’ve grown in 2 years under KA’s plan” was the context so it was an “imagine if it keeps going” thing more than a “check back in 2 years” thing, specifically. Imo i still think there’s an internal goal of playoffs next season. Just because there are macro goals (perennial contender) doesn’t mean they can’t/don’t understand that progress can be measured in important sign posts along the way. It’s not miss-miss-miss-CUPS, at some point you need to make the playoffs as the next step. It’s KA’s 4th year as GM next year, 3rd under The Plan. Failure to make the playoffs in that sort of timeframe would be indicative of a plan....well, not going to plan Never mind the potential opportunity cost lost considering our very top guys are committing prime seasons to record, as we speak
