I have no idea what their real plans are for the job once RJ is gone for good, but I hope they re-examine the position and move on from Dunleavy. Or he moves on himself before that day arrives. I fear he has been assured he will be "The Guy" going forward once RJ takes off the headset for good. Sanitized is the perfect word for it. Let's remember Dan's farewell tweet before his last home broadcast. Sure sounded to a lot of people like a farewell to the Sabres. Quote

My hopes for this team are that Eichel does not leave and the team stays in Buffalo. I've given up on anything even related to playoffs for a few more years. I think your hopes will be secured. 1 Quote

Laine should be back in for the game but Niku, Lowry, Perreault and Little (gone for season) still not playing. I've been told that Morrissey will be paired with DeMelo for tonight's game so Morrissey is back. Also out with injuries are Bitetto, Dahlstrom and Letestu. These players not being dressed is probably a good thing for the Jets though. We lead the league in man games lost so far this year and that isn't counting Byfuglien. Good luck!!!!!! Columbus is first, Jets second, for man games lost. Edited March 3, 2020 by Thorny Quote
Thorner Posted March 3, 2020 Report Posted March 3, 2020 Jets are terrible this year, (really, their advanced metrics are as bad as Buffalo's) but we are also bad, and on the road. Dunno about this one. I'll be there, though. Quote
Ruff Around The Edges Posted March 3, 2020 Report Posted March 3, 2020 Amazing that Winnipeg is 20th in goals scored with the likes of Kyle Connor, Patrik Laine, Mark Schiefele and Blake Wheeler as forwards. Quote
Gatorman0519 Posted March 3, 2020 Report Posted March 3, 2020 Sabres with a 3-1 lead going into the third ...lose in OT Quote

It's one of Chevy's few albatross contracts. Edited March 3, 2020 by Thorny Quote

The tone for next season will be 6 more new players, minimum. The tone was just set 3 games ago...when it mattered most. It's pretty easy to set a different tone now that the season is over in these games are meaningless. Quote

He isn't 'flashy' and sometimes it takes a second or two for me to register if a goal was scored, but overall I prefer him to a lot of other people I hear doing play-by-play. Of course, I must say that I am NOT a fan of guys that get overly excited....RJ's calls to me are a bit too over the top. But I'd be perfectly content/happy with Dunleavy going forward. Quote

May I recommend voting to supply coaches with more than 7 baseballs? Volunteers shouldn’t need to spend a hundred dollars on balls. Hope you have a great season! Coaching is easily the most rewarding thing I do. Hah. We'r a bit out from practice. I don't really coach anymore, too busy. Just on the board now. Of course I'm not at the board meeting because rather than go there I had to stay home and work all night. So this is my quick break before I get back to working... MF'er.. that's what I get for complaining about missing the game for a board meeting... Quote

I'm interested to see if we compete hard or fold tonight. I always say I won't watch and then I find myself getting sucked in. I'm sure I will end up watching the first.....just hoping that I see something that we can all hang our hat onto for the future. Quote
Zamboni Posted March 4, 2020 Report Posted March 4, 2020 Oh I thought Olofsson was out. Cool. Glad it wasn’t a serious injury. Quote
