Ok, you got me and I'm too lazy to look him up...
Who is Dwight Schrute?

- IonSabres


Murray.

Doesn't he look like him?

The write up didn't make sense as you pointed out in the comment section about ranking prospects that are full time Sabres. He failed to include Will Borgen or Estephan as well.

Based on it though, my top 10 prospects now would be:

1. Ullmark
2. Bailey
3. Fasching
4. Petersen
5. Guhle
6. Schaller
7. Baptiste
8. Cornel
9. Borgen
10. Hurley/Martin

kinda good that we have 2 goalies in our top 5 prospects list.

kinda sucks that 2 of our top-5 prospects are goalies.

Bogo at 5 is better than my boy gorgeous Gorges at 4.

A few posters here liken Bogo to Lucifer. We'll win a game and they'll still b!tch about his play.

I would think after this draft upcoming draft it will change. If we get Laine he moves to #1.

My guess is we win today against Pitt.

Mallon out, MAF sick, send day of a back to back, Crosby is flat, and Leonard is ENGAGED.

Mike Milbury will turn blue with frustration, but in the end he can suck it.

Razor blades 3
Yellow chickens 2

Sugar RAy Lehner gets an assist AND fights Kessel.
Girgensons shorthanded, Eichel on a breakaway, and Ugwand from 80 ft, off MAF's ass.

I know some in the media hate on him too because he's the opposite of Myers. The same peoplebhated Myers for being soft.....

Ideally, if each were making a million or so less than they currently are, they wouldn't get as much hate as they do.

I get that. In my view Bogo has not been good at all but I wonder if he still has that nagging groin problem. I'm far from giving up on the guy. In the end he's a 3/4 guy on this team. Give him a capable partner and 100% healthy and he'll be fine.

I was not a big fan of Gorges the first 30 games or so. Seemed like he was trying too hard, took some bad-timed penalties, not sure of himself. Last couple months I see his game vastly improved. He's playing smarter, and his game has gotten a little chippy.

not all the same people.
Myers is too soft, I appreciate Bogo's mean streak. Would be nice if he were defensively sound however. I don't need him putting pucks in the net, just keep them from happening in our zone, and be tough on the players in front of the net.

That's fair. But is that more on Winnipeg who signed him to that deal? Maybe Murray needed him to get over the cap floor.

On a team with Ennis, Kane, Gionta, moulson, and legwand all making at least 1m more than they should be, the dmen don't bother me

I'm a montrealer and have always loved him. He wouldn't be here if not for his cap hit

Meh, I don't read their posts anymore, makes life a lot easier. I'm sure others will complain though.

Mike Wilson disagrees.

Man, I had to think a long time just to remember that guy's name.

Looking at the Pens' board, it appears Zatkoff is in net. If memory serves, he played lights out last time we met...but that was in October.

I think Olofsson & Possler should both be on that list
They're both ahead of Schaller & Cornel to me, bc they've got higher ceilings

I'm glad u didn't put Kasdorf on that list. Sick of hearing about his "good" season. Not that he's been bad, but he's a senior & he's being out performed by his freshman backup. There's actually a slight chance Kasdorf gets benched.

I know it borders on blasphemy, but I love sour mix in margaritas frozen which I find cuts down on the sourness a bit as well, I like adding a lime cordial too the mix as well and Long Island iced teas too. Not really a fan of whiskey sours though unless it's really poopty whiskey like if someone gets married and they cheap out on the booze and the whiskey is like turpentine.
- Wetbandit1



It's not as bad in frozen margaritas bc the ice starts to melt right away & dilutes it...
But for a regular margarita "on the rocks" there's nothing that beats fresh squeezed juices.

I had Schaller because he's very close to being a Sabre next year. You could make a case for Olofsson but I'm indifferent about Possler. I don't think he'll ever come over to North America.
