You said everything that needs to be said.

 

I would have bolded "dinosaur" too, but that's just me.

 

Millbury would stand outside with a fork if it was raining soup.

 

You forgot to mention that he traded Chara and Luongo for that (broken) fork.

Habs Perry Pearn fired after 1-5-2 start... Buh-bye

 

Gutless to fire the assistant coach and not the head coach...

 

Martin survives for now..

The game isn't even over yet in Philly, yet the score is Jets 8 Flyers 8. I didn't know that the All-Star game was being held this early in the season.

Final score in Philly is 9-8 for the Jets. I wonder how many times they changed goalies.

The Sabres have as many wins as Montreal and Boston combined.

 

Hope I can say the same thing in March!

 

DeLuca will be beside himself!

Stat line for Phlyer backstops last night:

 

Bob: 15 SA, 5 GA, .667

 

Bryzgalov: 10 SA, 4 GA, .600

 

The more things change, the more they stay the same. :lol:

anyone see Bryzgalov locker room meltdown after the Jets game? He says "I have zero confidence in myself right now..." etc etc.

So who put the curse on Filly's goalies? Whoever it is, I'd like to buy him a beer. ;)

 

The really great ones have their careers end tragically - Parent, Lindbergh; their good ones flake out - Hextall, Peeters; and the rest, well, they're the rest.

 

Hopefully Ilya continues that fine tradition. :thumbsup:

"I have zero confidence in myself right now. If you probably threw a beach ball instead of a puck, I still would not stop it. I am terrible." -Bryzgalov

How am I supposed to come up with good insults for the Flyers' goalies if they themselves are taking all the good ones?!?!

Did Bob go missing after the game like he did in the playoffs?

The Stanley Cup Champions are in LAST place in the Eastern Conf.. :worthy: :clapping:

 

They are 29 out of 30th in the league only ahead of Columbus.. :lol:

Yeah, but Kessel is on fire, so it's all good. :rolleyes:

Don't forget Versteeg. 11 points in 9 games is a nice start. He was one of the better Flyers in the Sabres series.

 

Kovy is off to a slow start, I expect he will pick it up.

And don't forget you are still taking credit for mentioning Regher before anyone and there is no record of the lost posts to prove otherwise.

Just watching the World Series... the really expensive players (Pujols, Hamilton, etc.) may come up big once in awhile but don't dominate in proportion to their salary.

It seems to be a thing that happens universally in different sports. Generally, it's John Q. Public that wins you championships, not the Albert Pujols types who are way overrated at crunch time, and of course way overpaid for beating up on the little guys along the way.. Sabres seem to have alot of Pujols types. (at least with hockey equivalent salaries)

I agree with the first bit--it does seem to be the role players who make the difference.

 

But I don't think the Sabres have a lot of "Pujols types."
