Very bad day, losing Harrison Phillips hurt more then we expected.

I’m not doing 85 pages on Ristolainen again. Thought he was excellent last night.

He’s gotten better on D (which literally every single D and forward has gotten under Krueger) but he’s still massively over rated offensively.

If he continues to play 26 minutes with McCabe it will get ugly.

Ristolainen gets worn down and McCabe isn’t durable. One will be mentally exhausted the other will physically be on IR by February.

They need to eventually even the minutes out

Dude...
you’ve done about 85 MONTHS on Risto

You gave examples of a 10-12 game sample.

Pretty much all of them besides Demers have been way bigger scorers than 35-40 points when playing top minutes

- sbroads24


So him using a 12 game sample isn’t ok...
But u saying we are a good team at 9-2-1 and using that sample size to criticize Risto is ok

Hmmmmmm
Seems pretty hypocritical to me

ROCHESTER, N.Y. — Concertgoers were unfazed at last night’s Gin Blossoms show when the band played an entire set of Goo Goo Dolls songs instead of their own, attendees who “honestly didn’t even catch that” confirmed.

“Oh, man. What a great show,” said concert-goer Randall Ridderhoff. “My wife and I don’t get out very often anymore, but to see these guys play all those songs we fell in love to all those years ago, we couldn’t have asked for a better night out. I mean, ‘Slide,’ ‘Name,’ that Nicolas Cage movie song… they really brought it tonight, and didn’t hold back at all. Can’t wait to tell the kids about it when we get home… not that they’ll understand or care.”

Gin Blossoms guitarist and vocalist Robin Wilson explained the band’s decision.

“It was just an idea we had — to sort of pay homage to friends of ours, and also see if the audience is even paying attention,” Wilson explained. “Everyone seemed to enjoy the show, despite us not playing a single one of our hits, or any of the six album’s worth of songs we wrote, at all. I’m not sure what that says about us, our fans, or light rock music made in the ’90s, but we’re glad everyone came out and had a nice time.”

While the set was mostly comprised of the Goo Goo Dolls’ discography, Gin Blossoms further wowed the crowd by expanding into other similar-sounding hits from that time.

“The thing I love about coming to a Gin Blossoms show is that they start rolling into the setlist, and you look around and people don’t realize how many hits they actually had,” said Laura Linder, a fan of the band since 1991. “Sure, everyone knows the hits like ‘Breakfast at Tiffany’s’ and ‘Closing Time,’ but then they play ‘Roll to Me’ or ‘Counting Blue Cars,’ and it’s just jaw-dropping. They really need to get the respect they deserve.”

Mr Negative, Jerry Sullivan has a point...

Over the last two weeks, the Bills have allowed touchdown drives of 70, 60, 59, 75, 68 and 83 yards. There was a 71-yard drive that ended in the Fitz interception, too.

Against struggling teams no less?

McDermot has some work to do.
Beaner may need to work the phones for some help.

defense should end up fine, but if they regress in to an average defense, look out, because this offense cant score points

They are not superbowl team, one or two players won't make them one either. We are set up very nicely to be a contender next year with a ton of cap space.

Imo they should ride it out this year. Maybe make a small addition that will be here beyond one year. Something that costs a fourth rounder. They will likely still make the playoffs.

Still waiting for a response to this:

Did you miss the part where Brady had - literally - his worst performance ever in a win?

172 yards and 1 TD. Wow, feel the burn.

They could not stop the run. The Eagles ground game torched them. If you're going to be critical, at least get it right.

They recalled him again. Practicing on a line with Montour.

Edit:

Here's how the D pairs look:

McCabe - Ristolainen
Gilmour - Miller
Dahlin - Jokiharju
Borgen - Montour

- adambuffalo


If they plan on Montour playing soon,
i feel like it would be smart to start practicing one of the RH guys on the left side

I read that Alex Tuch may be available for trade. He's currently on LTIR, but should be back soon. The Knights currently have 2 natural RD on the roster. Would Montour and Vesey for Tuch be a fair trade? Perhaps they add a pick (they have 5 2nd round picks the next two drafts). Tuch's deal at $4.75m could be very good moving forward and having him an Tage on the right side long term could be really strong. One's 6'4" 220 the other 6'6" 210. If they both continue to develop it would solidify that spot for a long time.

Whenever I hear that a movie has become the highest grossing film ever, I wonder if it's because movies are way more expensive than they used to be. Do they take that into consideration ? Just wondering.

They do not, I believe Gone With the Wind is still #1 adjusted for inflation.

He was a big loss, I feel Star is a shell of his former self and is now too slow for the league.

He made more plays than Allen and won the game in the same weather conditions.
