GARTH'S CORNER: Sheen Makes It Rain For ALS

Yea Buffalo. We have something to cheer about . Hope they find a way to open part of the activities to the public.

It's lol because of I see what you did there.

Hey, guess what: Sidney Crosby is coming to Buffalo as well. Assuming he's healthy those 2-3 times a season.

Yawn. Who gives a poop? It could be in timbuktu for all I care.

Well if it was in Montreal all the NHL personal would have to speak french or Canadian fans would want them all fired . So it can't be there.

When Kaleta was cleared to resume play after serving his harsh, prolonged suspension

10 games for a repeat offender who frequently hits to cause injury is not harsh, it's fair at best, lenient at worst. His entire game is to try and hurt someone, there's no effort made to play the puck, or play the game. Buffalo doesn't need him and neither does the NHL.

He's a changed man. He's been to reform school.

He's one of the dirtiest players in the league.

Pure scumbag.

As an Islander, he actually tried to play and I can't remember a single cheap shot from him last season, honestly, I can't. He was trying to score when he was on the ice, unless someone wanted to fight him. I actually wanted him to be more of a crap disturber on the ice. I don't know if you're referring to earlier in his career but as an Islander I certainly haven't seen that.

Ok, I'll give you that. I didn't see many Islanders games last year (I will be paying attention this year, mind you )

Earlier, I guess as a Thrasher, he was brutal. Taking runs and trying to hurt the opposition.

I all fairness, without Tavares, the islanders barely play the puck either

I never saw Boulton as "dirty." Granted, I didn't see him play more than a handful of times a year. Seemed like an enforcer who hit hard for sure, but can't recall him outright running guys.

My worry with Kaleta is that he will be a target now with the officials. Last season, especially towards the end John Scott couldnt get on the ice without being called for a penalty, a large percentage of which were nonsense. I imagine the same will happen with Kaleta. Now, he is a much better player than Scott and can be invaluable on the penalty kill, but I am still not sure if its worth the liability. But then again, since they arent trying to win this season, so why not give him a chance. Long term though it will be guys like Compher and Lemieux and Girgensons who will play hard and drop the gloves when needed. Look at the depth chart, its like a whole team of hardnosed 3rd/4th line players.

Lol @ the part on Kaleta. Power of 36 suns? Lol wow... Who is he competing against for a spot on the team? Of course he'd make the team. He's exactly what Nolan looks for in a player. All snarl, little to no offensive upside.
