The Rangers won their first game in defense of the World Series championship. They never led during the game, and fell behind 3-2 on this missed call by the ump, when he called a wild pitch instead of a foul tip. Granted, Heim shouldn't have stood there yammerin' with the umpire but it was still a bad call. The Rangers tied it up in the bottom of the 9th on a very rare pinch hit home run by Travis Jankowski. Heim made amends in the 10th by driving in the winning run.

I was in a dark place after the EDM game. Things haven't exactly gotten brighter since.

Naw. Let me brood.

5k is the value negotiated in the collective bargaining agreement. God bless the NHLPA.

I've lost 11 pounds in the last two and a half weeks. Got a ways to go.

Do you know why vehicles continually increase in size? The federal CAFE standards are based on the length and wheel track of a vehicle. Larger vehicles have less aggressive fuel economy requirements. So rather than make vehicles more fuel efficient, it's easier to just make them bigger.

This captures exactly why it's coaching and not the players.

I seriously think it might be as simple as trying a new curve on his stick. Last two years he was one of the best danglers in the league, but right now he's lost it. I also notice that in situations where he used to assertively drive into the zone, he's hesitating or peeling off towards the boards. I suspect he's dealing with an injury that doesn't keep him out of the lineup but hampers his skating.

This was really a sad, pathetic effort tonight by the Blue and Gold.

So both got roughing and unsportsmanlike.

Because the Sabres don't have the right coach. Duh.

I think he needs to think about changing the curve on his stick or something.

Quick, someone make this a banner The best I can do is

We...... scored?

UPL regressing to the mean?

GOAL THE PULLEY!

and its got the Sabres no where That's the age-old argument of if the team sucks, blame the best player. That makes no sense. A lot of people said the Sabres didn't win because of Eichel. They trade Eichel and he wins the Cup. Hmm. Guess it wasn't Eichel. Jeff Skinner is not the reason for the Sabres' lack of success. He's not a perfect player but he produces points, which every team needs.

Since being traded, Okposo has played three games, averaging 11:09 of ice time, 0 pts, -1. The Panthers are 1-1-1 in those games.
