  1. BigdickdubbleU We’ll be playing a Jets team on Thursday coming off a loss - to Nashville and their Devon Levi, Saros
  2. I bet you it’s auto-immune Its always auto-immune, House
  3. This is truthfully a very common thread throughout the NHL nowadays, especially this season goals are way up. Teams get big leads. Score effects, as always remain a thing: but with the raw amount of goals going up, it simply translates to greater swings in differential relatively this happening to the Sabres is normal. Try to be one of the teams overcoming the score effects, rather than one relying on them to get back to square ground so far so good
  4. Adams is open to big name trades, see everyone His and his team’s analysis of each individual move is what matters, by the principles they’ve set. No move is simply ruled out based on stringent adherence ie “we won’t “mortgage the future” by dealing for a “now” player.” Always open to improvement, doesn’t view things as *necessarily* set, in house. Not if we can do better. Depends on cost, depends on player. Very good.
  5. Flyers hanging around this year a definite surprise
  6. Then I’d rather have you inside my house, pissing out, than outside my house, pissing in - - - heard this on tv recently and didn’t think I’d get a chance to work this into conversion so soon
  7. Quinn and Peterka producing little of late while we maintain a spot in the playoff race makes me borderline giddy some days re: hockey outlook. We aren’t firing on all cylinders, areas for not just realistic but inevitable improvement, potential star-level substantial improvement, are already on the clock ticking down
  8. “Please, you’re scaring us, lady!” I rest my case lol
  9. Dahlin also got to play behind..I dunno, Scandella? Whereas Power got to play behind...oh, Rasmus Dahlin
  10. Excellent thank you very much. Glad to see my memory isn’t shot yet
  11. No he was not. This is a false narrative surrounding Dahlin’s rookie year due to some of the regression we saw in the second half defensively his *sophomore* season, which then became a full blown issue under Krueger. The starting point was actively beaten down for a little while His advanced D metrics season 1 were all solid. Not to mention the fact it’ll probably take Power his first 3 post draft seasons to put up the production Dahlin did in 1
  12. maintain the shutout, win 3-0 while getting terrible shooting luck even as we pepper Binnington with shots, while the regression to the mean comes Thursday and our offence explodes again against Hellebuyck as I rain down the boos and laughter at him from the stands on Thursday or score more now and bunch then too whichever
  13. Totally disagree. Dahlin was one of the better dmen in the nhl and one of our best statistical players at *18*. Power was in school. Dahlin was better at 18 than Power is now, at *20*. Dahlin had a slump under Krueger, that’s it
  14. One of the more positive and interesting stories of the season continues re: abundant forward health I feel the most optimistic when I think about Power and Cozens, because those are two guys we could reasonably hope to amount to being a team’s best D man and F respectively, and that neither is projected to be or expected to be for us is where the real excitement comes in
  15. I’d much rather win Thursday if I can only have 1, but I’d certainly take both
