Of course he's going to like it. He was the GM for Europe.

Is he also the scourge of Carpathia and the sorrow of Moldovia?

I can’t cheer for someone that “cheats” it’s like NHl wants the sharks to face Boston because of the “Joe Thorton Boston” history
- gerbe75pts


How did they cheat? It's the officials who (frank)ed up. It's not like they're the Pats.

I know most aren’t going to care But if the NBA lets Zion Williamson Go back to duke because he doesn’t want to be part of a small market team he should not be able to play at all I’m sorry ..

And everyone wants him to do it espn etc

The heat didn’t get him you don’t see me crying it’s ridiculous

This would be like if the Sabres got Connor McDavid and the NHL wanted him in a bigger market like in the leafs

It's nothing new. Eli Manning, Eric Lindros, Jim Kelly and others have walked this path before

They also missed a blatant over the glass on Perron who scored like a minute later.

When was the last time a big OT goal was overturned?

The Avs were offside. That was the correct call.

Stop. You're creating a narrative. Vegas choked on the PK, and the refs blew the hand pass. There's no conspiracy, just bad officiating
- jcragcrumple

I also do not see how that "hand pass" was anything to cry about... From one angle it doesn't even look like he touched the puck, it was bouncing around anyway, then got picked up and passed cleanly to a stick and the goalie let a stinker in.

He is a freshman

He can literally go back to college for 25 years more until he graduates as long as he pays tuition.

Year after. But the decline will start mid season next year.

I thought his decline started already (lol)
So to be clear...

Then the following year 45ish

The Sabres need to sign a 45-63pt completely one dimensional winger, it is absolutely paramount. If they sign a 45-70pt center for the same money until they're the same age it is outright stupidity, I mean flat out ridiculous, like how could one even begin to think.... Seems obvious.

Edit: the latter will be exactly 4 months younger at the end of said contracts.

And I'm the drunk troll......🤔

To be fair it does look like he could have touched the puck with his stick after hitting it with his hand which would negate the hand pass. At full speed it would be a tough call. Unfortunately for St Louis it was not a reviewable play.

Without looking it up, if he hasn’t hired an agent he has every right to go back to college.

- OneKaneOneCup


As long as he hasn’t hired an agent, he can go back to Duke to play ball, unless he goes undrafted, then he can terminate his player/agent contract (which isn’t going to happen).

He has until 10 days after the last day of the annual Draft Combine to do this.

Again this is as long as he hasn’t hired an agent(and I’m to lazy to look).

He has not hired an agent.

Apparently he's totally fine going to New Orleans.

If you look at where the refs were positioned during that play, I can understand why they may not have seen it.

I would bet the NHL sends the 3rd ref on standby during games to a booth somewhere for keeping an eye on calls like this that may be missed next season. This type of thing cannot happen.
