Malkin -25
Kopitar -20
Getzlaf -19

And? Kopitar is about the only defensive forward on that list and he played on the worst team in the league, with a -61 goal differential. Ducks were at -52. I've never heard anyone call Malkin a defensive or two-way forward.

On the Sabres, however, if you account for ice-time, Larsson and Girgensons add almost nothing of value to the team.

It's like trying to argue that Ristolainen is in any way good at defense. He isn't. He is a one-dimensional, physical offensive-defenseman.

top 5 draft pick here we come.... AGAIN

No, no.
I'm told moves are coming and Risto's value is sure to land a 2C, 1 RhD, and a 2RW.
This season is in the bag, Botts is so confident he is taking the next 7 weeks off all good trades happen between now and mid August.

Maybe Botts could package
Sheary, Okposso, Sobotka, Larry, Girgs, Wilson, Scandella, Hunwick, Nelson, and Bogo
To
Seattle for their 2031 7th.

Imagine signing Johansson and Gardiner and trading for Gustavs rights. Sign Pominville cheap, Trade McCabe for another RW and you could keep Risto. Trade Scandella and bogo for late picks bury Hunwick in the all. Playoff team.

I'm imagining.
Sounds great too.

If, IF, they fix the middle six, and no forwards are traded:

Skins-Eichs-Samson
VO-? -?
Vesey-Fatboy-Sheary
? - ERod-?

That leaves:

Lockport
Girgs
Tage
CJ
Okposo
Pod racer
Wilson


Take your pick.

Every year on the 4Th of July, Joey Chestnuts and Kobayashi have a contest to put as many hot dogs as they possibly can in their own mouths.

You and Fitz seem to be locked in a competition to see how many *words* you can put into *other peoples* mouths.

Non-hockey question. Anyone familiar with the strip clubs in Fort Erie? A friend of mine wants to go. I haven’t been in many years. Only ones I remember are Mints and Sundowner. Any others that anyone is aware of?

Those are both on the Canadian side of the Falls. Sundowner is a much different, and far better, place than Mints.

Decades ago in Fort Erie you’d go to Maxine’s. They were even better than the Downer but I’m pretty sure they’re closed. I don’t know if anything has replaced it.

Great place. I hit it up after a Sabres game in February and it was worth it.

If that offer sheet for 13 million for one year for money Mitch is true

I don’t see them matching it

Ek just spinning for clicks. Nobody would do that for two reasons:

1) $13 million AAV - insane
2) For 1-year. Who in their right mind would offer up 4 1st round draft picks for 1 year.

It didn’t look like there were any in Fort Erie anymore but I wasn’t sure. Probably been close to 15 years since I’ve gone up there for a strip club.
