I fixed what he meant to say

Unless something unusual happens, sometime in the next few days, Tim Connolly will play his first pro game at the minor league level.

- Millers cuts loose with a WTF wave on Sunday. - The Flyers go up 2-0 in the first period, and Lindy shuffles all the lines. - The anticipated Scott-Lucic fight doesn't happen, but Lucic will go with Ott at least once, maybe twice. - Enroth gets one start next week, gives up 6 goals, and doesn't see the ice the rest of the season. - I hit the alumni club 50/50 not once, but twice! - They drop those army parachute guys with the free stuff from the catwalks, and someone falls from the 300's trying to get one. - Kevin Sylvester loses his voice..forever. - Miller has a breakdown when Grigo walks on the logo in the locker room. Uncosolable. - Sabres sweep the Leafs. Leafs fans attending the games in Buffalo don't care. Great shopping at the Galleria, cheap beer at the game, sleep it off on the way home on the bus. - Actually predictions on how the seasons goes or individual players. Who knows?

I don't think Stoll is going anywhere, and he may be overpaid, but he is not "garbage".

Smoking hot body but those gaps in her teeth are driving me crazy! :D

I'm surprised about McNabb. I've seen more negative than positive reviews about his play this year.

:(

WOW!

Hecht & Ellis?

Do you get a free shot at the Flyer taking the faceoff? :devil:

I wonder how many AHL level forwards in Europe have an out clause in their contract, that if the Sabres offered enough money to get them to come back and finish out the season in Rochester, they would say yes. Alternatively, go out and acquire a AHL vet from another teams AHL roster. They could definitely use at least one veteran presence up front, and one on the blueline.

I'll repeat what I said in this thread or somewhere else recently... If McCormick has had an issue with one of his fingers that has been ongoing since last year, I question how much he is going to be dropping the gloves this season. Also, his play in general from 10-11 to 11-12 really tailed off.

I've gone on record many times about this, and agree with you 100%. Horton, Perreault & Hasek. No one else even close to consideration either former or current players.

If McCormick has been bothered by a finger problem since last season, I wonder how much willingness he will have to drop the gloves this year(or what's left of it).

At moments like this, it's nice to have season tickets! :)

Only time will tell. I guess the good thing is that he is not repeating last years numbers. That would definitely not be a good sign.

Good to see that you are also in mid-season form. :D Go Sabres!

So it took Lindy and Darcy 25 games of sucking, getting put on the 4th line and the press box before they realized he wasn't "hot" anymore? Yeah people would have gone nuts if he was sent to the Amerks much earlier. <_< Good to know I can rev up my hatred for these two before even one game is played. :lol:

I don't know what the exact situation was in terms of injuries at the time, but there were probably dozens of options in terms of street UFA's, and or a minor trade for a forward that would have been 100's of times better than letting Adams confidence go in the crapper...which oh by the way is still in the crapper as of today.

I agree that it was a head scratcher when he was picked. That being said, just as an example, look at Gaustad's junior numbers the season after he was drafted. Junior numbers always have to be taken with a grain of salt especially when you are a 19 or 20 year old playing against 16, 17 and 18 year olds. 80 points and 200 penalty minutes....WOW. We have the next great NHL power forward! NOT. Good 3rd or 4th liner, but very little of an offensive skill set at the NHL level. http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php?pid=50640

Not to nitpick, but the article states it was 5 points in two games. ;)

Take CI and stick it up your ass. $50? Thank you sir, may I have another.

I'll say one thing on this...When Ruff moved Adam off the line with Vanek and Pominville(or whoever it was he was on a line with), he should have went to Rochester within a few games when it was clear his play was going downhill. Instead, Ruff jerked him around 25 games or so, from line to line, to sitting on the bench, to in the press box, and then eventually to Rochester.

Not one second has been played, and my list is ready to go... 1. Miller 2. Vanek 3. Myers

Excellent point! It's hard to get excited about Miller.
