did not like that hit on Rodrigues. Seemed late and ERod had his head down. He just left the game it seems?

I don't find that to be the case, especially with all the vegan joints where I live and what's on their menus. I once accidentally walked into an all-vegan dessert place. I realized mid-order and promptly just stopped speaking, turned around and walked out the door.

Duchene for Larrson, Nylander, and Pu

http://www.nfl.com/news/story/0ap3000000849157/article/jordan-matthews-give-bills-passing-game-some-time I tend to be an optimist, but I buy what Jordan Matthews is saying

I'm sure there is a team that has the right pieces for COL to make a mutually beneficial (to the extent COL is capable) deal. I don't think the Sabres are that team. I like where our team is now, and a Duchene deal from our end seems like it would require a drastic rethinking our prospect situation. Unless COL is willing to do something even dumber than the ROR deal with us, I think we pass.

Curious to see Pouliot on ROR's wing as well as Girgs at C Will also be my first real look at Antipin

:lol: or maybe too many soy latte's? :P

What's the consensus? Is COL gonna get totally screwed again on this deal, because the decent offers have already turned into pumpkins?

What's worse, politics or FFB talk in this thread?

I'm sorry, but actually, I do have a perfectly clear idea. Your comments about knocking up hoes and wanting the latest pair of sneakers gives us all a perfectly clear idea. Enjoy your bubble.

count me in. As long as they show chemistry. They looked great last night, from the highlights I saw.

You obviously have very limited exposure to what many people out there are facing. It's OK; many people live in a bubble

I've thought this, as well

I 100% agree. I also expect this team to make the playoffs. I think those with the "ship him out at the deadline" will be sorely disappointed. I can see him being an asset to us in the playoffs.

To the extreme... if Jack scores 100pts this season, and the contract isn't signed, boy would GMBot have a lot of explaining to do...

Trust me, it is terrible for the people in that situation. Much more than for you.

I think Kane and the contract situation are going to surprise a lot of people this year. Anyway, I voted for 5.5mil for 6 years in the poll. I'm just worried that amount would have to go up due to post McD/Draisaitl inflation

You don't enjoy the pointless anecdotes during gameplay? And him raising his voice without actually describing what's happening?

Absolutely. This is exciting :thumbsup:

When RJ is calling the game, I feel like I can actually see the plays happening. When I listen to Dunleavy, I'm not even sure if it's hockey he's talking about, sometimes

I was listening to the exact same broadcast. And I never tune in- I was on the QEW, driving to Toronto at the time...

Did anybody else notice Bogosian this morning? I thought he was channeling Brent Burns or something. I mean, that's slightly overstating it, but I was nonetheless surprised and impressed

I agree, neither are strong defensively. I think Wowie can find a better, more balanced line for Kane. I only mentioned it to show that he's capable of chemistry (many people here don't think he is)

I think he's worth as much as Okposo, although I know they're very different players. The 6mil Okposo got turns into 6.5 or 7 with inflation

So, let's sum it up: Kane kept his nose clean recently, but he probably will do something crazy off the ice again, because he's Kane. No one has reported any locker room problems with him, but he probably is a problem in the locker room, because he's Kane He's scored on a 30-goal pace last year in a bad system for offense, but he probably won't again this year, because of math and the fact that he's Kane He could probably get 6-7mil on the open market, but we shouldn't give it to him, because he's Kane He and Eichel had their best offensive production when they played together, but that's not called chemistry, because he's Kane Chemistry and a chance to play with one of the best players in the league notwithstanding, he won't want to stay in Buffalo, because he's Kane Am I finally getting it? Agree 100% But most are diminishing the latter
