inkman Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 I've never known someone from Rochester say they are from wny. I'm excited for Mike Fischer. I hope they win the cup. Every person I know in Rochester considers themselves western new Yorkers. Quote
LGR4GM Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Mike Weber is now an OHL assistant coach. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Sorry on the 490. I meant that exit on 90 where you access 490. Is that where WNY is demarcated? But I take the point of Rochesterites thinking they’re in/of WNY. Otoh, the common phrase is “the 8 counties of WNY.” Monroe ain’t among them. Quote
Weave Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Otoh, the common phrase is “the 8 counties of WNY.” Monroe ain’t among them. That always seemed more of a TV market thing. I heard it phrased that way most often on Buffalo news stations, which stretch their coverage to Genesee and Orleans Counties. Otherwise, I see Monroe and Livingston counties included in WNY way more often than not. Quote
That Aud Smell Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Fair. Wikipedia says it’s really 17 counties. And there’s a treaty-based “preemption line” that runs north/south through or near Geneva and marks off WNY. Quote

Ducky Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Everything is available for a price. Gotta do something to make the stats geeks freak... :) Despite people not wanting to accept it, stereotypes by and large are created out of a preponderance of factual information that apply to a particular grouping of things. I am leaving it generic because it really can apply to all kinds of things and not just people. There has to be an exception to it at some point and then at some point the preponderance of exceptions make it no longer a stereotype... (even if uneducated people continue to use it). In fact, if you want to insinuate that stereotypes are bad aren't you now creating a stereotype about stereotypes? Meh.. the Lightning just had a weekend party. I'd expect them to be a little off. :) Didn't hear a peep from Stamkos/Kucerov thanks to the Copp Lowry Armia line. We're 1st in the division 2nd in the conference and 3rd in the league...Roslovic is on the first line with Wheeler and Laine....I hope Chevy goes put and beefs us up for a long playoff run. Quote

Might I interest you in a middle-six scoring winger who plays hard and forechecks like crazy? He's built for playoff hockey. :lol: Quote
apuszczalowski Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 I think that one way to gain a visceral understanding of the difference(s) would be to say that very thing that to your average Kazakh. Or just watch some Borat. not really into documentaries though. But I hear that one really does a good job of teaching people about the area.... Quote
Sabre fan Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Nathan McKinnon out 2-4 weeks. too bad...kinda rooting for him and his AVS who are playing so darn good. I am actually hoping we kinda get miles better after trading Kane the way the Avs have got better after the Duchene trade Quote
Tondas Posted February 1, 2018 Report Posted February 1, 2018 Nathan McKinnon out 2-4 weeks. JBOTT playing with fire with Kane. Guys getting hurt all over the league. I know that can increase the return the Sabres get when another team has an injury, but if Kane gets hurt, JBOTT gets nothing. Is JBOTT trying to establish himself as a tough negotiator while not realising he may need to take "the bird in the hand?" Quote

Is JBOTT trying to establish himself as a tough negotiator while not realising he may need to take "the bird in the hand?" Are you assuming that he could move Kane now for something less? If so, how much less before he's basically giving away an asset? This is the game inside the game. Quote

If so, how much less before he's basically giving away an asset? This is the game inside the game. Yes, I am assuming that Kane could be moved today. Even Kane for a good prospect now is better than him on IR through the deadline. If I could get a top notch prospect now with a conditional 2019, I'd take it and work on dealing Lehner and Gorges. But I am risk averse by nature. I know it's unrealistic, but why not sit Kane until the deadline? He's a known commodity and the Sabres are going nowhere. Takes the risk out of the equation.

I know it's unrealistic, but why not sit Kane until the deadline? He's a known commodity and the Sabres are going nowhere. Takes the risk out of the equation. I understand. Clearly being risk averse plays into things. I don't think he can back too far off his initial high asking price or every GM will try and low ball him. It's tough to be patient. I think next week's the week there are some moves. Quote
Winston Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 (edited) Stop me if you’ve heard this before.... Dirty hit by Gudas tonight: https://twitter.com/morning_skate/status/959234100082151424 Some think he didn’t see Palmieri behind his teammate. It’s awfully hard to give him the benefit of the doubt Edited February 2, 2018 by EichSnipe Quote
Randall Flagg Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 Gudas is one of the last "this guy is a legitimate threat to destroy someone's future" dangerous dirtbags in the NHL. Quote
Sabel79 Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 There is a 0% chance he didn't know what he,was doing there. In as much as Gudas' primitive nervous system allows him to "think" Quote
darksabre Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 Just saw the Gudas hit. What the hell is wrong with that guy? Ban him for life. He's a thug. Quote
Ogre Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 Just saw the Gudas hit. What the hell is wrong with that guy? Ban him for life. He's a thug. Philly fans defending like mofos. Dirtbag fans defending dirtbag players. Quote
Huckleberry Posted February 2, 2018 Report Posted February 2, 2018 People actually think he tried to avoid his teammate ???? He jumps up , two feet leave the ice and his teammate is already in the corner. Should be banned rest of season. Quote
