Marvin

His best game in a long time.

I keep wondering of the Sabres will ever get that kind of favourable officiating.

Sad, but true.

Degree of difficulty on thar dive is 1.0.

FIFY.

Stillman may not be that good, but he brings an element that this team has very little of.

"These referees have been all over the place today." -- Rob Ray. That is about the harshest criticism the NHL would allow of its officials.

Yay?

The reason I lean towards believing GMKA's account of what was going on with Arizona is that the Kings' GM gave a similarly negative review of his dealings with Arizona.

We all saw how those end up after seeing Hamilton.

I very much appreciate you owning this. 😀

Seriously? That arena is the sticking point still?

Boy, are a lot of fans upset about GMKA not getting Chychrun. The assumption is not that Armstrong was trying to strong-arm Adams, but that Adams killed the trade in a fit of pique. HFBoards has several fans just dismissing the Greenway trade out-of-hand because of this. Then again, a couple of those people were willing to move all 3 1sts from last year for Chychrun.

C. Liked Greenway. Wanted a solid defenceman.

Same Bat-Time, Same Bat-Channel!!!

Agreed. I wish he has spent a pick on someone like Gudas. I wonder if part of the issue with Chychrun was that he saw that he was #3 of offencive defencemen here, so he would be less productive before his next contract, so he discouraged his GM from trading him here. And I am not surprised that other GMs were trying to induce GMKA into overpaying in desperation to reach the playoffs this year.

And that kind of hitting is contagious.

Anyone else feel a bit better because we were, marginally, buyers for the first time in aeons?

That is one of my hopes.

Glad he acknowledges this fact.

This is what I find so heartening about the two "big" moves. They are getting more grit and are aware that we have skill to burn.

I like this. He plays a type of game that we don't have much of in our line-up. We need some sandpaper and more defencive focus.

My calendar does not say that it is 1 April. What am I missing?

On trade deadline day, WGR has NFL combine coverage for the 2 hours leading up to the deadline. Just ducky.

Eichel and a 1st in 2023. 😉
