Yes. Agree. I was referring to passing only. At least that’s how I see it.
-
Awesome! Good job Dallas.

Here’s an unpopular take … I think starting at the age of 70, everyone who drives should take a driving test every 2 or 3 years to make sure they are still competent. Free of charge to the seniors of course. I could flesh out more details but that’s the general take.

I said the same thing about Krebs. Got no blowback. Saw no blowback. His passing prowess reminds me of Reinharts.
-
That transaction is on the list Dec. 15 2022 👍🏼

Reinhart is the straw that stirs the drink on any line he plays on. He’s pretty consistent, and is a terrific passer. Not to mention stays healthy. I’d take him back on the Sabres in a heartbeat. I hope he wins the cup this season.

Depends what streaming service you are talking about. I personally, I still pay for spectrum Internet, and spectrum tv service. But I bought Roku devices and attached them to my tv’s. So everything is streaming through that. I have a spectrum app on the Roku device and that’s how I get my TV stations including MSG. So yes in theory I cut the cord and got rid of the spectrum cable box. Just not the TV service or Internet. -

I personally don’t know those trophies. I’m dead serious. I know the Stanley Cup. The Super Bowl trophy (Lombardi?) And yea, the Wimbledon plate one. (Don’t know the name) The MLB trophy (don’t remember the name). The NBA trophy (don’t know the name). Does NASCAR have a trophy? I don’t think I’m unique in not knowing the names of all the trophies of all the major or lower league sports stateside let alone sports trophies around the world.

The Stanley Cup... Is the most famous trophy in the sporting world Was first presented in 1893 Is the oldest trophy competed for by professional athletes Logged more than 400,000 miles in travel during the past five seasons Has raised more than $4 million for charity the past three seasons Each winning player and team management member gets to take the Cup home for a day to share with family and friends Was crafted in Sheffield, England Was purchased for 10 guineas ($48.67 at the time) in 1892 Weighs 35 pounds and stands just under three feet in height Is the only trophy in all of sport that is passed along from player to player the summer their team wins it. Some of the situations that the Stanley Cup has experienced include: Being a guest of George Bush's and Bill Clinton's at the White House Appearing as guest on Late Show with David Letterman Being invited to opening day at Yankee Stadium Being a guest at the Kremlin in Moscow Being invited to opening ceremonies at Luzhniki Stadium in Russia Being used as a baptismal font Made an historic visit to an Aboriginal Metis Settlement Is the only trophy in professional sports that has the names of winning players, coaches, management and club staff engraved on the silver chalice Has been won a record 24 times by the Montreal Canadiens and a record 11 times by Henri Richard of Montreal In the summer of 1997, the Stanley Cup traveled to Russia for the first time in its history. It was accompanied by Russian members of the Stanley Cup Champion Detroit Red Wings, including Slava Fetisov, Slava Kozlov and Igor Larionov In the spring of 1999, the Stanley Cup was among a list of Hollywood celebrities invited to take part in the 5K Celebrity Run Walk in Los Angeles for Women's Cancer Research Travels approximately 250 days per year Has appeared on talk shows, including Late Show with David Letterman, Tonight Show with Jay Leno, Meet the Press with Tim Russert, Late Late Show with Craig Kilborn, Late Night with Conan O'Brien It takes 13 years to fill the ring of the Stanley Cup with names of winners Once a bottom ring is full, another one of the same size is removed from the top of the base and retired at the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto Names misspelled on the Stanley Cup -- Adam Deadmarsh was spelled Deadmarch -- but later was changed; the only misspelled name to be corrected Some other misspells on the Cup that never have been corrected: Jacques Plante's name has been misspelled five times, (incl. "Jocko," "Jack" and "Plant"); Bob Gainey was spelled "Gainy" when he was a player for Montreal in the 70s; Ted Kennedy was spelled "Kennedyy" in the 40s; New York Islanders was spelled "Ilanders" in 1980/81; the Toronto Maple Leafs was spelled "Leaes" in 1962/63; the Boston Bruins was spelled "Bqstqn" in 1972 Name scratched out - "Basil Pocklington," father of former Edmonton Oilers owner, Peter, put his dad's name on the Stanley Cup in 1983/84; today, on the Cup, one can see a series of "Xs" over his name There is only one Stanley Cup -- authenticated by the seal of the Hockey Hall of Fame in the bottom of the Cup; this seal can be seen when winning players lift the Cup over their heads There is a second version of the Stanley Cup that remains in the Hall of Fame, which never travels, and is used for display purposes only at the Hall when the Stanley Cup is traveling; this Cup is perfect and has no misspells Places that the Stanley Cup has visited: Czech Republic, Sweden, Russia, Finland, Japan, Switzerland, the Bahamas Other interesting towns/cities that the Cup has visited: Fishing Lake, AB -- a Native reservation of the Metis Nation four hours from Edmonton; Anchorage, Alaska with Scott Gomez; Wawa, Ontario with Chris Simon The Stanley Cup has climbed Mt. Elbert in Colorado - 14,433 feet As a player, Henri Richard has won the most Stanley Cups with 11 Overall, no one's name appears on the Stanley Cup more than Jean Beliveau. He has 17: 10 as a player and 7 as management In addition to the players' names and teams' names that have won the Stanley Cup, there are two other phrases on the upper bowl of the Stanley Cup. One side says: "Dominion Hockey Challenge Cup" and the other side says: "From Stanley Of Preston". To have one's name engraved on the Stanley Cup certain requirements must be met. A player must have at least 41 games played with the club or one game played in the Stanley Cup Finals. However, in 1994 a stipulation was added to allow a team to petition the Commissioner for permission to have players' names put on the Cup if extenuating circumstances prevented them from being available to play.

I’m 2 episodes in with Sucession. The only one I semi like is the wife of Logan, and the “new nephew” character. No I don’t have all the names memorized yet 😂 Good show so far -
Hey slow down champ. It won’t be 3 years until June 16th 😬 I think it’s silly to bring KO back. But it’s not the worst idea. Bringing Anderson back would be a worse idea 😂

Awesome l! bye candy canes and your meathead coach God I pray you’re right

Is it acceptable to have always thought (from the time he was drafted) that Eichel had a cocky, arrogant, unlikeable personality, And that personality rubs me the wrong way? Is that ok? I think it is. And now that he no longer wears the sweater of the team I am a fan of, paired with the first interview he gave after he played in Buffalo as a Knight, had caused me to like him even less? Is that ok? Is it OK that I don’t want him to succeed in his career? Or is that too insensitive and hurts fans of Eichels feelings? Good grief.

That’s a good way to use the feature. I use it a little differently. Once I put someone on ignore it’s for good. Their opinions and takes are so inconsequential to my enjoyment of the forum that I will never need to engage with them again. And everyone here has strong opinions, so much so, that no one ever changes anyone’s mind about anything. So it’s people are stating their opinion (sometimes confused with facts) about a topic. Not really for debating or influencing. At least that’s how I see it. But I can certainly understand your use of the ignore feature with taking a break from posters at certain times 👍🏼

Tage thompson was almost traded to the leafs in 2021
Zamboni replied to Buffalonill's topic in The Aud Club
Well look at that… Another fake/false tweet being posted by @Buffalonill 😂 Silly rabbit 😎 -
And like a lot of players do … They elevate their play in the playoffs. some play slightly out of character. As Gretzky would say… Some of the leafs players were on milk cartons.

You’re GD right it was Reinhart 😎 How was he on face offs tonight? ”he’s not built for the playoffs” they said ”he sucks” they said Dude isn’t dominating by any means. But he isn’t a weak link on the team by any stretch either.

Hmm … Who scored the game winner? 🤔
