No this was Ennis sending the Sabres home up 3-2 before getting Leino-d Gerbe had a sick spinorama goal against the Flyers in that regular season game This is all from memory but, it’s my memory so, should be decent

The fact we are pretty good and Quinn and Peterka aren’t, really, yet is one of the most positive developments of the season bar none The Dahlin effect cannot be ignored, ever He’s That Guy

I dunno, Granato seemed to love him: waxed poetic about his leadership abilities on more than one occasion. And they went out of their way to show him “Giving Adams a call” after the move in that Sabres embedded. If the price is right I’d take him back he’s a really good player

As much as I want to be sarcastic about it, ya, it’s possible. I just think it’s very unlikely he comes in at under 10 and I wouldn’t start to get my hopes up for something that unlikely. It’s no sweat anyways because of the other value contracts we’ll have. If at the end of the day he’s willing to sign for below what he’s worth maybe we see a deal in at 9.5, I’m certainly not complaining. Just see it starting w/ a “1”.

Just joking around lol

Maybe he’s rounding up

Right. It’s already logically weird that some games are “worth more” in the grand scheme of the standings. Some games divy up a total of 2, some a total of 3. Makes no sense.

Josh Bloom vindication so sweet

Ya he isn’t going to be one of the options for internal replacement

Dahlin on board with assist

I think our differential re: forwards is about mid-pack though, right? I don’t think anyone could say we don’t have the offensive talent of a potential contender once some of the younger players develop - it’ll be interesting to see if their defensive game rounds out to the level where it’s good enough overall.

Maybe all our players will sign for well under market value by choice and we can just sit on 30 mil of cap space that we aren’t going to use, anyways, because we don’t bring in players from the outside that need to be paid, correct? We’ll be the first perennial cup team in history that did so without even needing to worry about salary - Pegula will be happy, at least. We aren’t just going to win the cup, it’ll be the greatest cup by way of value that’s ever been awarded - - - Heiskanen isn’t close to Dahlin Fox isn’t quite as good, and will have signed 2 years earlier than Dahlin, and already makes 9.5. Why would a better player, 2 years later, take the same amount? Dahlin/Makar a toss up for ability but again, Makar will have signed a full 2 years earlier. - - - Cozens deal is a smart re-up that avoids bridging. We save money. That’s not an Adams thing that’s a league thing This is exactly what Adams *declined* to do with Dahlin. He’s already been bridged. He’s getting 10+

Ya. Nope.

No

I’m watching on sportsnet here No sure where you’re at

Lol god bless the nhl for trying to capitalize on the popularity of a movie from 1996

Dude is so much better than anyone. Wanted to win accuracy shooting this year instead of fastest skater so he did it 4 for 4 under 10 seconds for CM

Draisaitl embarrasses himself in accuracy shooting. Sorry Leon even the all star skills isn’t the cake job playing with McDavid is

McDavid needs to get a bigger cheer than that, I’m sorry. Dude is the best ambassador for the game and it’s most important player. There should be buzz there it’s just crickets

The beach stuff is what’s worked the most for me so far. Looked liked the guys were actually having fun

The skill events where they nonchalantly fumble the puck down the ice and proceed to not try to actually score on the G don’t work and are cringe. Don’t showcase much of anything. Gotta stick with drills like 3 point shot in nba where players will actually try to win and they’ll be impressive doing so This dunk tank thing is fine. Players actually shooting for the targets

He’s right

This is such a weird drill including the goalies shooting. Crowd not feeling it lol

I agree the all-white is the main culprit and the pants being blue would help, but Rolling these out the same season we got the OG black goat heads was such a weird choice/result. The white ones suffer for that certainly regardless of pants
