nobody Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Yeah. If you want a guy to not hit his games played bonus, bench him once. No one said what kind of bonus he has - maybe it is a TOI? Maybe it is G,A,P?
Eleven Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Tomorrow will mark ONE YEAR since Scott Gomez scored a goal.
deluca67 Posted February 4, 2012 Report Posted February 4, 2012 Tomorrow will mark ONE YEAR since Scott Gomez scored a goal. Will he score again before the contract is up? :lol:
deluca67 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Kovi with the Gordie Howe hat-trick which included a SHG and a big right hand. He is settling in nicely with the Devils.
deluca67 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Sam Gagne with 2 points in the first 5:41 of the 1st period. That's 10 points in 65:41 of hockey. That's an impressive stretch.
bunomatic Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Big hit on Hemsky by Kronwall Smid rocks Zetterberg from behind.
deluca67 Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Gagne with another at 19:59 of the first. This kid to be buying Lotto tickets and heading to the Casino he is so hot.
Eleven Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 Gagne with another at 19:59 of the first. This kid to be buying Lotto tickets and heading to the Casino he is so hot. If he keeps it up--and that's an if--he might become 2012's version of 2011 Stafford. I want the Sabs to stay away from him.
bunomatic Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 That was a terrific game to watch including the shootout between The oil and the wings. Just all around great hockey. Its what ya want.
thesportsbuff Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 According to the Sabres twitter, Kassian has been sent back to Rochester. They used to the term "loaned to Rochester." This might be a stupid question, but there isn't a difference between being sent down and being, ahem, "loaned" .. is there? BuffaloSabres Buffalo Sabres Forward Zack Kassian has been loaned to Rochester (AHL). --^ks

This might be a stupid question, but there isn't a difference between being sent down and being, ahem, "loaned" .. is there? He has a contract with Buffalo, not Rochester. The Sabres (and other NHL teams) loan their players to their AHL affiliate, who can also have some players of their own under contract. When he is "called up", he's actually recalled to Buffalo (see here for examples.)

JJFIVEOH Posted February 5, 2012 Report Posted February 5, 2012 I see. That's what I figured, but I've never heard the term "loaned" used before. I've heard it a few times, but I thought it meant something different. Must be a part of all the guidelines they need to follow. I guess it means he doesn't have a two way contract, but he hasn't played enough in the NHL to have to clear waivers to go down?

I guess it means he doesn't have a two way contract, but he hasn't played enough in the NHL to have to clear waivers to go down? It's loose language, so you're not at all at fault for thinking it was different. In other countries (most notably, countries that have strong soccer leagues), a "loan" means just that. A team loans a guy who isn't starting down to another team in another league (or even to a non-contender in the same league), but there aren't farm teams in those leagues like in hockey and baseball here.

I guess it means he doesn't have a two way contract, but he hasn't played enough in the NHL to have to clear waivers to go down? He does have a two-way deal. All entry level contracts are two-way. He will not be eligible for waivers until either that deal is completed or he has played in 160 NHL games.
