Its a beautiful sunny day & Sabres lead the Leafs 1-0.
Boucher pots 2 & BB scores in his inaugural game.

So far so good on this glorious day lol

Man o man both the Sabres & Leafs find defence a foreign concept.


2-1 Sabres

Because they affect UFA's/trade lists if we ever want to acquire any new players outside the draft?
- WhiteLie

No they don't

They go where the money and opportunity is.

never been a fan of DC pictures, though, the superman films from the 80s are probably their best efforts... they had the lead back then, just never followed through. Now marvel has set the standard and they can't keep up, especially with the garbage they keep putting out (outside of some of the Batman movies, like Dark Knight)....
- kaptaan

The Christopher Nolan Batmans were good and I did like Superman Returns oddly enough but you are right... DC needs to step up their game and maybe this is where they do it…hard to say...

Curious & seek your opinions...



As we all know Crosby slashes Methot's hand & his finger tip ends up dangling.
No penalty.

Any other time a slash breaks a stick its a penalty.

So i ask u all what is more important sticks or players?

You must be incredibly clueless to think a FA won't give some thought to how an organization has treated players in the past.

he might lose his job

question is do you think gaunce or boucher be replaced, I think yes they can.
- Bettmanhatesus

I don't understand what you mean by replaceable. If you are saying with free agents like Shore, Skille, Chaput and Mega. No. Those guys are just trying to prove they can do enough. Where those younger players are still improving on potential and trying to prove they got it.

I wonder if Boucher keeps this up that he makes it onto Vegas radar over Sbisa and Miller?

Guance is good in all zones and improving. His offensive snake bite this year is bizarre.

So wouldn't want to see either gone. Though they aren't the top six I see them as solid middle six guys that good teams need. Not easy to always find and fit in. Their age and contracts fit in with the Nucks. Don't want older free agents to replace.

the league is a joke.

Not as long as Bob Cole has one. 😜

I went to Home Depot recently while not being altogether sure that course of action was a wise one. You see, the previous evening I had prepared and consumed a massive quantity of my patented 'you're definitely going to crap yourself' road-kill chili. Tasty stuff, although hot to the point of being painful, which comes with a written guarantee from me that if you eat it, the next day both of your butt cheeks WILL fall off.


Here's the thing. I had awakened that morning, and even after two cups of coffee (and all of you know what I mean) nothing happened. No 'Watson's Movement. Despite the chilies swimming their way through my intestinal tract, I was unable to create the usual morning symphony referred to by my dear wife as 'thunder and lightning'.


Knowing that a time of reckoning HAD to come, yet not sure of just when, I bravely set off for Home Depot, my quest being paint and supplies to refinish the deck. Upon entering the store at first all seemed normal. I selected a cart and began pushing it about dropping items in for purchase. It wasn't until I was at the opposite end of the store from the toilets that the pain hit me.


Oh, don't look at me like you don't know what I'm talking about. I'm referring to that 'Uh, Oh, CRAP, gotta go' pain that always seems to hit us at the wrong time. The thing is, this pain was different. The chilies from the night before were staging a revolt. In a mad rush for freedom they bullied their way through the small intestines, forcing their way into the large intestines, and before I could take one step in the direction of the toilets which would bring sweet relief, it happened. The chilies fired a warning shot.


There I stood, alone in the paint and stain section, suddenly enveloped in a toxic cloud the likes of which has never before been recorded. I was afraid to move for fear that more of this vile odor might escape me. Slowly, oh so slowly, the pressure seemed to leave the lower part of my body, and I began to move up the aisle and out of it, just as a red apron clerk turned the corner and asked if I needed any help.


I don't know what made me do it, but I stopped to see what his reaction would be to the toxic non-visible fog that refused to dissipate.. Have you ever been torn in two different directions emotionally? Here's what I mean, and I'm sure some of you at least will be able to relate. I could've warned that poor clerk, but didn't. I simply watched as he walked into an invisible, and apparently indestructible, wall of odor so terrible that all he could do before gathering his senses and running, was to stand there blinking and waving his arms about his head as though trying to ward off angry bees. This, of course, made me feel terrible, but then made me laugh. ..........BIG mistake!!!!!

Here's the thing. When you laugh, it's hard to keep things 'clamped down', if you know what I mean. With each new guffaw an explosive issue burst forth from my nether region. Some were so loud and echoing that I was later told a few folks in other aisles had ducked, fearing that someone was robbing the store and firing off a shotgun.. Suddenly things were no longer funny. 'It' was coming, and I raced off through the store towards the toilet, laying down a cloud the whole way, praying that I'd make it before the grand explosion took place.

Luck was on my side. Just in the nick of time I got to the john, began the e inevitable 'Oh my God', floating above the toilet seat because my a** is burning SO BAD, purging. One poor fellow walked in while I was in the middle of what is the true meaning of 'Shock and Awe'.. He made a gagging sound, and disgustedly said, 'S**-of-a-b****!, did it smell that bad when you ate it?', then quickly left.

Once finished and I left the restroom, reacquired my partially filled cart intending to carry on with my shopping when a store employee approached me and said, 'Sir, you might want to step outside for a few minutes. It appears some prankster set off a stink bomb in the store. The manager is going to run the vent fans on high for a minute or two which ought to take care of the problem.'

My smirking of course set me off again, causing residual gases to escape me. The employee took one sniff, jumped back pulling his shirt up to cover his nose and, pointing at me in an accusing manner shouted, 'IT'S YOU!', then ran off returning moments later with the manager. I was unceremoniously escorted from the premises and asked none too kindly not to return.
Home again without my supplies, I realized that there was nothing to eat but leftover chili, so I consumed two more bowls. The next day I went to shop at Lowes. I can't say anymore about that because we are in court over the whole matter.. Jerks claim they're going to have to repaint the store.
- VanHockeyGuy

and they come into court armed with what evidence?? Wheres the proof?

You have no concerns about Patricks brittleness and him being a another potential Salo ?
- Tigersmyle

at least with salo it was the NHL. This kid is in junior and getting messed up. No thanks, please pass us by.

Salo wasnt so brittle, look at his injuries. Slap shot to the face requiring surgery. Slap shot to the testicles, swollen to grapefruit size....back in 2 games though. Concussion from marchands slewfoot.
Guys a warrior. Never made him shy away from shots

Whoa…let's watch it with the political talk on here…

Another off the wall question is coming....



Other than inventing oval racing where turning left is in demand....NASCAR
& Abner Doubleday inventing a sport without a clock that can be a cheap & readily available sleeping pill called baseball if one is an insomniac & one only needs to tune in.

Multiple choice answers are as follows....


A) Cricket is the origins of baseball & not an insect. No credit given
B) NASCAR is an insidious Commie sport & its all about the left
C) the World Champions of American football is a correct term
D) America 'home of the free' unless its the NCAA making Uni's billions but get the athletes nada
E) insert your own answer ____________________________ .

Yes i hearya but no point getting ones panties in a knot over a season that was not going to amount to much. If WD gets his assed fired he earned it. He has done a good job developing the kids but he is prolly evaluated on everything else which will inevitably determined his fate.

malhotra is player development coach in his description, dont think WD has anything to do with it
