Agreed

Disagree. There is no core. You have four players on offense who are apart of the future of this team. Kane, O'Riley, Eichel and Reinhart. Everyone else is pieces to move.

This is 100% the truth

Too*

And I'm still not sure what the joke is.


The Sabres being bad 5 on 5 is an absolute fact.

Whether the power play is as important or not was the "argument"

An actual joke that would make sense would be asking if those teams had a good PP or not.
- sbroads24

The joke is beating the dead horse non stop on a young team learning the game and learning about each other . Maybe you should read Stash's blog and quit being so pissed off . You think they should be better than they are. That they traded Myers and Traded a #21 pick for our goalie of the future who they will control for a number of years yet till he is eligable to be a UFA.

The way we are playing we will be (10-12). We can't stop getting points and ROR will be back soon.

That could change overnight. Most of these games (even at full health) are toss ups for us. last two games vs Toronto and Minny could have gone either way.

Holy poop!! Marcus Kruger done got paid! According to WGR he got a 3 year deal worth $9.25M PER year! They sure know their hockey over there...

When they actually begin to go the other way I shall salute you. Until then ........

Kind of annoyed Buffalo wasn't more aggressive trying to sign college free agents.... Didn't try an get that other guy from the CHL either...


Let a Willamsville native in Andrew Poturalski sign with the friggin Hurricanes... Come on Murray!

I'm getting tired of winning games.

A good goalie from here could be draft ready this year. Ladd

I get that he's a strong 2 way player but...he's got 1 assist on the year.

Honest question, when in the last month since they have been playing some decent hockey have I been unhappy about their play?

Maybe not . But you can always find something to whine about. Be happy for once.

What correlation is there between the discussion about PP and 5 on 5, and me whining? Again, trying to figure out the joke

Game on !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Interesting...

As part of a larger discussion on NHL expansion:

“The other thing is that one of the real contentious discussions so far as the executive committee level is the actual parameters of an expansion draft, and how that would look like, because Gary Bettman wants an expansion draft to be better than ever before. He wants the new team or teams to reflect the parity of the NHL. He doesn’t want them to be near the bottom of the standings for five years, like has traditionally been the case with most expansion teams in the last 20 years.

“So because of that, what the executive committee has been shown as the original ideas from the league for an expansion draft has them being exposed and losing some pretty good players.”

Also:

“One GM said to me he saw the proposed rules and he goes, ‘You could lose one of your best young players under what’s being proposed right now.’

“I mean, that’s not really that appealing for some teams. So that’s part of the debate as well, is the yin and yang of, ‘Do we want new teams,’ and ‘How much are we going to enjoy losing a really good player or two in the expansion draft?’ “

Damn Bogo

I'll see that and raise you ...... I'm getting tired of tieing games.

Can anyone explain to me the rules behind post trade deadline trades?

- fastek

I'll agree with that also

Anyone have a stat site that lists stuff like: records when scoring first etc.?

I saw a stat last night in the Kings game that they were 13-15 or so when giving up the first goal .... got me wondering if every team in the league stinks if they don't score first.

Can anyone explain to me the rules behind post trade deadline trades?
- chilliard77

TRades can happen. After the deadline , players cannot play in the play offs. The deadline tag is the last day for traded players to be able to play in playoffs

I like Lehner and I think he is going to be really good, and I want to say he needs to make a bailout save...

But that was a good shot.
