pi2000 Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 (edited) In UPL's last 5 home starts he has a 5.20 GAA, .787 SV% and is allowing just over 2 goals above expected PER GAME. So yeah, let's give him the start because... yeah. Edited March 24, 2023 by pi2000 2 1 Quote

Expand It's only a guess on my part, but I would think that at 6'0" with a 40" waist, there aren't a bunch of pants available to fit those dimensions. Quote

The comeback and subsequent 12-0 run to 96 points (and the 8 seed) begins. 1 Quote

By process of elimination UPL gets the nod. 🤷♂️ Quote

Contempt Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 I realize the shell seems like a small thing, but if they truly didn't have one for Levi that's ridiculous. They've known his dimensions for quite a long time and they knew they were signing him around this time. There's no excuse to not have shells for him and all of these small examples of organizational incompetence matter and I'm tired of excusing them. If they gave him an Amerks shell because he's going to play a couple games with them before the end of the year, fine. If it's some stupid equipment manager BS where you have to earn your NHL gear then that person needs to be fired for being a moron. 1 Quote

Expand Got it, anything that happens is awful and you want to complain. Just like about 85% of this board the last bit here. Woo is us, let's all get in a circle and cry together because Devon Levi had to wait an extra day to get his pants fitted properly and certified by the league. I'm trying to care that guy who has had 1 practice and won't even by on the bench tonight has Amerks pants on but I just can't bring myself to give a *****. 1 Quote

pi2000 Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 Going into this game, the Sabres are 5-12-1 at Home in 2023.

LGR4GM Posted March 24, 2023 Report Posted March 24, 2023 You know what, I don't want to do this anymore. This play has become an unreadable nightmare of bitching about EVERYTHING. It is truly a depressing hellscape of myopic hate posting. Maybe we will finish 11th and get Bedard but then I will just see posts about how he isn't 6'8" and doesn't eat opposing hockey player mid game while murdering their lineage with his hockey sticks and single handedly winning games with his big swinning... puck. 1 Quote
