- dadeadhead

isn't he too busy polishing that Cup ring he won as a coach for STL

I am all for trades


I feel we need to do a lot of 2 or 3 for 1 trades, where we get the better player


IMO the top half of our roster needs to be upgraded and the bottom half will take care of itself

Dylan Strome would be my 1st choice, but might cost more then people think.

Group 6 UFA

A player becomes a Group 6 UFA if they are 25, completed 3 or more professional seasons, has a contract expiring, and has played less than 80 NHL Games. For goalies, this is 28 NHL games with more than 30 minutes of ice time.

A Professional Season is defined as any season where a player aged 18-19 plays in 11 or more Professional Games, and a player 20 or older plays 1 or more Professional Games. A Professional Game is a regular season or playoff game in the NHL, minor league (AHL/ECHL), or European professional while under an NHL contract.

Dobber line combos

I dont think that site is reliable for positions though...line combos, sure.
They list each line in alphabetical order, not position.

Yeah, you have to look at who's playing with each other and determine who was at each position. Sometimes it's easier than other times. Like Henrique and Getzlaf playing on a line together.

Or maybe, if YOU spent three seconds in the real world, you would see that a google search “ Delaware veterans cemetery shooting” shows that the murder your conspiracy rag describes was widely covered with appropriate outrage by the AP, CBS, ABC, and NBC, and the Philadelphia and Baltimore newspapers. Is there other MSM that should report on it? Or should they have identified the suspect any sooner than 36 hours after the manhunt ended? You’d also see that those MSMoutlets didn’t think that the suspect’s familiarity with the wooded area meant he “obviously planned it for a while” as your rag theorized, inasmuch as he ran into those woods “near his home.” And they didnt hyperventilate, as your rag did, that because he wore a mask (and a black hoodie!), that he was a “potential terrorist.” The majority of us are wearing masks now.

If you thought about it, maybe the difference is that the authorities immediately pursued this obvious criminal to the full extent of the law (and probably shot him dead), whereas in Georgia two different prosecuting attorneys chose NOT to take any legal action based on the killing (or even to refer it to a grand jury), and while there are fair questions about whether the dead guy was actually just a jogger, video proves the lie in the cop’s-son-shooter’s story that the dead guy “violently attacked him.”

A) you’re dealing in false equivalents B) appears youre only reading conspiracy rag headlines, and don’t know what “fake news” really is.

Why are YOU complaining about a Narrative?
- Der Kaiser

Widely covered? So you knew about it before I pointed it out? Tell me, which major news network picked up this story for your evening news segment...? In fact, can you tell me of a single case like this that's been covered by a cable news network? I bet you could tell me 5 cases off the top of your head like the one in Georgia, but probably zero with the roles reversed; which is really odd given the actual crime statistics in the US... Maybe you should do yourself a favor and spend some time on the FBI, DOJ, BJS, CDC websites instead of this one, then get back to me on the "hurr dur muh conspiracy" nonsense. The truth does not fear investigation.

Or just keep doing what you've been doing and tune into your cable news network tonight so they can tell you what to think and what to feel tomorrow.

Ran into Horrible Harry from the Bills this week at the driving range. He says his knee is good to go and the Bills are super pumped for the primetime games.
- Sabre_Tooth

I REALLY hope that guy pans out ..... he hasnt done nearly enough to say hes "good."


He seems like a great dude and has embraced buffalo

actually, on may 5 it was at $8.39 and it was in an $8-range for a few weeks surrounding that date before dipping to $5.80 on Wednesday.

That said, despite your inflated self-congratulations, I don't think anyone would argue with a 25% return on investment over that period.

Nice work.

Sorry, it was longer than ten days ago, as my advice clearly came out before their 12/1 reverse split on the 5th. But. hey, haters gotta hate.

Well he had a decent rookie year, and unfortunately was starting of good last year until he blew out his knee

Correction, I’m 100% in.
- dadeadhead

I see you and others are expending your 100% posts that are irrelevant in the whole scope of anything. Or are these trade discussions, Sabres opinions relevant anywhere except in a few peoples' heads?

It humbles me that my words still resonate days later. Thank you and for others continuous bows.

Was there a two month effort to cover up the murder of the two elderly victims in your story?

No idea why they do it. Has nothing to do with the bad comparison from a murderer to them though
- Alex the Great

One guy is a vicious common criminal.

Other guys are assembling and menacing in paramilitary garb with clear political motivation.

Who is closer to a terrorist?

It’s all a scheissschau.

Cambridge dictionary definition of terrorist

someone who uses violent action, or threats of violent action, for political purposes:

When the SJW start parading on hockey buzz and Facebook about white privilege and “modern day lynching” in the streets of Georgia yet ignore facts and statistics that you are far more likely to get killed by a black man being white then the opposite and ignore their President candidate after sexually assaulting a staffer they are kind of hypocrites

The murderer.

and here's an updated chart from texas.gov:

Interesting, thanks for sharing.

Couple of other interesting points
The day before opening, Texas realized highest death rate reported from Covid-19...so while the State was still in lockdown.

The median incubation period is 4 - 5 days, with 97.5% within 11.5 days.
Furthermore, the CDC reported that the lag time from Pneumonia to death was 13 days, with Pneumonia taking 5 days to appear after symptoms.

So,
4-5 days for symptoms to appear
5 days for Pneumonia to appear
13 days from Pneumonia to death
Therefore about 22 days from infection to death

Since Texas opened up on May 1, I don't think you can hang all those new deaths reported strickly on opening up.

I read this blog and all I can hear in my head is Arnie from "What's Eating Gilbert Grape" and I'm Gilbert consoling him as he cries: "I killed it, Gilbert, I put it in it's head and the mailbox and I killed it, Gilbert!"

Only, it's not okay, and I wish you would have drownded in that bathtub, or gotten hypothermia.

Egads.

if casey becomes a second line center you lose the trade

if pekar becomes a third line center, you lose the trade


it's a panic trade




if you want to get henrique, offer them mccabe and a 6th


not casey and pekar
- navinrjohnson

Mittelstadt in all likelihood will never play 2nd line center for the Sabres. It'll be Cozens or this year's pick. He'll be a 3rd line center or a Mojo-type winger

No big loss imo.

Pekar will top out as a slightly tougher Latvian locomotive or bottom out at nothing

Yeah, you have to look at who's playing with each other and determine who was at each position. Sometimes it's easier than other times. Like Henrique and Getzlaf playing on a line together.

All these sites have limitations, hopefully the NHLs new player tracking technology brings alot of that into view better.
Personally, I like CapFriendly's Fantasy Tools, and Daily Faceoff to confirm what CF presents.
