  1. Too many of our shots are coming from hopelessly bad angles. We need more traffic in front.
  2. ...and there is Hodgson flailing as his man scores into an empty net.
  3. The ref who made that call needs to be junk punched. :devil: We're playing well, but with nothing to show for it. That worries me. Top teams like Tampa tend to turn it on when they need to. Hopefully we'll keep it up in the third and come away with a point or two.
  4. Both of these teams are really flying out there. Good to see.
  5. CoHo is skating so much better than he was at the beginning of the year... if only he could score...
  6. Am watching from the Buffalo Marriott near UB. Go Sabres. Sick goal by Stewart!
  7. True. But, I figure he could have traded them if he didn't like them.
  8. The team is improving under our new GM, which is what is supposed to happen. And, our young guys like Girgs, Risto, Zadorov, and others are playing better-and-better. Also what is supposed to happen. So, if anything, winning 4 of 5 makes me trust Murray and Nolan all that much more. I was never pro-tank. Last year we bottomed out. Now, onward and upward.
  9. I haven't been to a home Bills game in over a decade, but I'll be there on Sunday! Anyone here going?
  10. Moving from defense to wing worked pretty well for Deslauriers. Hopefully, it'll be a good move for Leduc as well.
  11. Hair tackle? I love it!
  12. The Jets are a mess. What's the over/under on how many more games Ryan makes it?
  13. That Orpik contract for the Caps looks really, really bad. Nikitin at $4.5 million for Edmonton is bad too. (I'm sure there are a few others I'm missing)
  14. Trading up for a WR in one of the deepest WR drafts in history just makes no sense whatsoever. It is was Watkins and then a huge drop-off after him, then I get it. But, there are a half dozen or more rookie receivers lighting it up right now. Odell Beckham who was on display last night. Mike Evans in Tampa. Jordan Mathews in Philly. Brandin Cooks in New Orleans. Kelvin Benjamin in Carolina. Plus a bunch of others who are already starting and making plays. Personally, I'd rather have Beckham or Evans AND next year's first rounder than just Watkins.
  15. http://www.capgeek.c...tion=D&limit=50 Looks like Myers is tied for 18th among NHL defensemen in cap hit. Our team payroll is so low right now it doesn't really matter. But if he ends up as a second pairing defenseman then it is a pretty big cap hit for that role.
  16. ESPN comes pretty close with their rankings of Top-50 NHL defensemen. Correctly IMHO, Big Tyler isn't one of them. http://espn.go.com/n...-15-nhl-season- I think Murray knows our future top pairing is Risto & Zadorov, which makes Big Tyler and his $5.5 million per year cap hit (through 2019) expendable if the right deal comes along. Teams will overpay for minute-eating defensemen and Murray is just waiting for someone to get desperate.
  17. Meszaros is playing better as of late. And, Strachan isn't nearly as bad as he should be given his journeyman career.
  18. I had this issue up until this season when I switched to DirecTV. My old cable provider gave me most games in low def (for the same price, of course) and normally only had the home team feed.
