I checked the score twice during the dinner portion, once when up 1-0, once when down 2-1. I should do more activities during Sabres games; maybe I'll even hide my phone. Thanks, Darth Pegulas the Wise! He did allow himself to be convinced to take the job. Just think who we'd have as coach if the extensive search had gotten past Ruff. Probably it'd just be Appert. Maybe Matt Ellis. How did you bowl? Quote

Now they are stuck doing another rebuild from a failed rebuild. The Core will get better once they get traded and meld into better hockey organizations. See Zadorov, Compher, McNabb, ROR, Eichel, Reinhart, Ullmark, Montour, Rodrigues … 2 Quote

On average, I've bowled once every other year in the last 20 years which includes 2-3 times in the 2003-04 era. So, considering that... I did great! We had a 2-hour time limit and I broke 100 in each game, including hitting a strike to get to 101 in the 8th frame just before time expired. I also restrained myself to a single Lebowski quote. "Over the line!" on myself. Am I the only one who gives a ###### about the rules? 19 minutes ago, Pimlach said: The Core will get better once they get traded and meld into better hockey organizations. See Zadorov, Compher, McNabb, ROR, Eichel, Reinhart, Ullmark, Montour, Rodrigues … It's so bizarre. Rodrigues is a first line winger on the defending Stanley Cup champion Panthers. Now, Barkov and Reino... it's the Kunitz on the wing. But still. You could even add Ristolainen. He's not great and never will be. But he's learned to be a structured bottom pair defenseman. And that could've been here if he'd been properly blocked instead of rushed onto a team designed to finish last. Every playoffs we take a look around the league of ex-Sabres in the playoffs and it's maddening. There was a darn good team here, potentially, but it was an impossibility. You know who's going to look good in the playoffs this year? Jokiharju 2 Quote
