This. If you have to say a player "would be better if he had x", or "if he didn't have y", it means that he's a good player, not a great one 99 times out of 100.

*Psssst....no one has called him great other than those knocking him down

How are my snow buried Buffalo friends doing?

My house is under 40 inches of snow right now so says my tenant.

This is my backyard right now





There is a chainlink fence back there. As you can see, it's no longer visible.

From what I hear, the Ski areas haven't got much yet, but should later tonight. The band has been staying in one spot for quite a while now.

Yeah, right over my driveway. 40+ and counting.

Irony defined.

It's sunny in Clarence. And like 2". Got some friggin snow on my damn shoes.

I chuckled to myself as I typed that.

In the bottom picture there's a stockade fence that runs down the side of the property by the garage, and if you look, you can see there's barely any of that even visible anymore. I've never once seen this much snow in this short of a period of time.

Not on this team. Even Erik Karlsson had Daniel Alfredsson or Jason Spezza to play with when he "elevated" the Sens to the playoffs.

Shea Weber had Ryan Suter and Roman Josi with him, now has Seth Jones.

We had Vanek, Pominville, Ehrhoff, Miller, etc. back when Myers was sucking. What was the excuse for him then? Those players aren't exactly scrubs.

And it's not that cut and dried, anyway. There have been plenty of all star caliber players over the years that have had success without a supporting cast.

I live in Riverside and only got a little wet sleet. It was enough to freeze my wipers to the window. I broke the windshield washer tube on the driver side, drove to Fucillo in Grand Island at 10:30 am and was on my way back home before 11 am. It only cost $11 for the new wiper. The I-190 was bone dry, yet it was closed at the I-290 exchange. They are saying if you go to the game, take Main Street.

They're allowing fans to trade their tickets for another game.

That too. But previous storms had pretty good attendance.

From what I understand, it's to avoid a backup because the 90 is closed, which I can see the logic. With the average driver's inability to drive a vehicle in snow, I can't necessarily say I blame them.

Yeah, but this storm is ongoing and half the fanbase can't get to the arena even if it wanted to.

I live less than 5 miles from there and there is no way I could get there.

Oh wow it's got that bright snowy night look to everything. We don't have that going on in the Northtowns.
