It really isn’t. Not for guys with 400 games under their belt

Victor Hedman had a slow start to his career on defense with bad teams. How did that turn out?

He got better once the team turned itself around

I don't ride a bike


pretty sure if I did, I would have peaked 24 years ago

- homiedclown


I bet you would’ve gotten better at riding the more times you did it, as opposed to waiting for a specific age to be good at it.

Probably could be applied to sex too.

There’s no wizardry that’s going to happen to him at age 26. He’s been a pro for 6 seasons playing at the highest level against the best competitors.

This is him

Hedman was great by age 21/22.

He didn’t get top PP time until his 4th/5th season

In his 4th season he had 18 EV points in 44 games which is what Risto does in about 75-80 every year

If Risto gets traded. Fine. If he stays fine

The Sabres are in a good situation with right handed defensemen either way.

He’s so good, according to “sources” we were offered a bunch of conditional picks and bad contracts.

The hypocrisy is astounding

- OneKaneOneCup



Just curious . Did Risto kick your dog steal your girlfriend or get your sister pregnant. Or perhaps all of the above for your level of hate for him. Because you cannot despise anyone as much as you do for how he plays hockey

He tried to score with my sister, but we weren’t on the power play

Thanks for posting this. I will be there when it opens, looks great. I started playing their golf balls earlier this year. Nice to see a Buffalo golf company hitting the big time in a competitive market.

Are they any good? I didn’t know about them til a couple months ago. I’m playing Taylormade tp5’s right now... how do they compare to a high end ball? ProV1, chromesoft, b330? I would give em a whirl if they are comparable just because they’re a local company.

They compare favorably to the high performance balls like the TP5 and ProV1. I did a ball test on my course one day, hit prov1, tp5, project a, bridgestone bxs and the OnCore Elixir. The elixir was the best and the project A was 2nd for what I was trying to accomplish. It's a very underrated ball. Both my buddy and I play it now. It's great off the driver and the spin and control around the greens is the best imo.

No poop. I didn’t expect you to say that. Best short game control? I really didn’t think you’d say that. Interesting. Do you shape the ball, or look more for less side spin? I ask because I cannot shape shots the way I want to with a project a or super soft or avx or the like. I really might give em a shot next spring. Huh.

In my view the OnCore had as good an action around the greens as the others. The BXS was also very good. I look for low spin off the driver and being a lefty I hit a baby cut. The project A was always good for me in the wind, especially cross winds. It held it's line pretty well. I don't hit the ball as long as I used to so shots into the green and around the green are huge to me.

I think the ProV1 is over rated personally. There are better high performance balls out there. For me I will keep using the OnCore or Project A depending on conditions.

Sergachev, Callahan and a 4th, no way I make that trade


Perreault and a 3rd

easy pass


Andy Greene and a 2nd, easy pass

Panthers had a multi player trade that was interesting, botts passed


with the cap teams didn't offer much

look at what PK got the preds, and he is a top 6 d man in the game still

time to trade risto if they were going to do it was 2 years ago, hell harmonic got a first and 2 seconds

trade market pretty much dried up since, esp when an owner won't pay a bonus so the gm sells low to the blues

- homiedclown


Yeah, those trades are crap

Do u remember what Florida offered?
