LaLaLaFontaine Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 When I read this and I realize that I also hopped my team to lose games I just can say that the current system is a shame. It must change. Ther should be a full lottery of all non playoff draft picks with equal chances of winning each spot. Put 14 balls in a bowl and draw one after the other. Losing on purpose is ridiculous, force fans to cheer that their team must lose is even more ridiculous. I can't stand it anymore Quote
Assquatch Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 I like this lineup, although I think I would have to go with carrots as my second line center. Apparently they are cheaper and more cost effective nowadays, and not nearly as good IMO. Celery can't take a hit Quote
Drunkard Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 I went with option 2 but I wouldn't necessarily go that far or try to make it that obvious. Hackett would get his games and depending on how he looks I'd make sure they are against Phoenix and Toronto in particular. Any good player with any sort of actual injury would be shut down to avoid aggravating it and at that point I'd let the chips fall where they may unless we keep winning while Edmonton and Phoenix keep losing. At that point mysterious injuries and illnesses may spring up to key players. I'd sent Irbe on vacation to the Bermuda Triangle until next fall as well and then offer him a big raise and extension when he comes back. Quote

No, in the games vs AZ and TO, Hackett would be the backup goalie to our ECHL callup. GO SABRES!!! Quote
3putt Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 I would plant 4 kilos of Mexican black tar on the charter and have the dea waiting at the Phoenix airport. Az doesn't like anything Mexican. Quote
Samson's Flow Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 For some reason I think Nolan is playing Lindback all these games in a row in order to time the necessary Hackett starts with the weaker portion of the schedule (beginning ARI on 3/26). By my count, those seven games would include two games against ARI and one against TOR, with the last game needed against CAR. I think he didn't want to "waste" Hackett's starts on such a strong team like Boston the other night. But other than Hackett's starts, I voted to let the chips fall where they may. The team is bad, let them decide it on the ice. Quote
bcsaberks Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 It's crunch time, Murray needs to tell the players to stop trying or else. Seriously. "you are not being evaluated now, every GM in the league knows this, get on board". Quote

dudacek Posted March 20, 2015 Author Report Posted March 20, 2015 I'm firmly convinced that if we dont play with integrity, our reward will be Noah Hanifan. If we sweep the Yotes, we are winning the lottery. I guarantee it. Quote

Jsixspd Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 (edited) Let Razor play, and have him wired for sound, now that would be must see and hear TV That's actually a good idea - bring in some goons to start fights and rack up majors and double minors - Buffalo has one of the worst PPKs in the league. It would entertain the fans, AND greatly aid the Tank. LOL Edited March 20, 2015 by Jsixspd Quote

Stoner Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 I am a sad, pathetic, lonely, weak man. I keep clicking on this thread hoping that the Sam Reinhart chocolate syrup guy has posted something. Quote
ddaryl Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 you let the chips fall but if we miss out on one of the top 2 I will be more than disappointed Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 This is ridiculous that we have to go through this. Again, and again, and again, and again, and again................................................. Babe, I got you babe................ Quote
I am Defecting Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 I am so hot for Mitch Marner, I get all worried by losses. I just tell myself, Anna, that is just what sports are about. Because if we were in 27th place, you just know I'd wish we were in the sweetie spot, 28th. 28th is the best possible outcome I could ever expect at the end of this insufferable season. I just know that I could not trust this rookie GM with 29th place, or even 30th. Ah, Mitch... :wub: Quote
3putt Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 You Vixen. Remember he is a youngster, be gentle Quote

Basically the only reason he is not talked about higher, height and weight. Considering some info, he might be right around 6' when all is said and done and playing weight will be about 190lb. Kid has some just sick skills. Quote
K-9 Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 Mitch Marner has the very real potential to become an elite talent in the NHL. Basically the only reason he is not talked about higher, height and weight. Considering some info, he might be right around 6' when all is said and done and playing weight will be about 190lb. Kid has some just sick skills. The couple times I've seen him he's been impressive. Great wheels. And a decent prospect. But the reason he's not talked about more, is because of who occupies the top of the draft class. As good as he is, he is simply not in the same class. His lack of physical stature has little to do with it. GO SABRES!!! Quote
I am Defecting Posted March 20, 2015 Report Posted March 20, 2015 Perhaps he is less skilled than McDavid in one department, and more skilled than McDavid in another department. ;) I am hoping to find out. Quote
