The Bills never won a single one of those Super Bowls though.

Are they, quote un-quote, winners? Leave it to Buffalo to worship a bunch of losers who had four, count them FOUR chances to not be... gigantic losers.

They win one of those Super Bowls, your point stands.

Now the Cocaine Cowboys, on the other hand... No one remembers them. Just Michael Irvin, Emmitt Smith and Troy Aikman.

We don't talk about Leon Lett and Don Beebe. We talk about how all of those great Bills players blew it and blew it and blew it and blew it and also lost four Super Bowls in a row.

Yeah, I mean it's not like single elimination games have huge variance in them or anything.

Remind me how many teams have gone to 4 straight Super Bowls.

I'm sure he is, but again, it's irrelevant if management could get their poop together. I must've said it at least 50 times at this point. Winning solves everything.

Ask Homie about Jim Kelly, or better yet, don't. He was also a raging bumhole. It's possible to do well when your best players are right pr¡cks.

Here’s Zadorov on MacKinnon.

No one talks about Eichel like this.

And that’s not me saying he isn’t great or we can’t win with him, it’s simply me saying he’s not a captain and they didn’t put good leaders around him.

And no one cares because he won 3 cups and is probably going to go down as the greatest American-born player in NHL History.

Exactly, management royally (frank)ed up. That's been my point this entire time. Character is irrelevant if your team wins games. Maybe in Evander's case it would be different in that he mistreats women, and that poop doesn't fly today like it used to, but other than that nobody would give a poop if ROR drove his truck, allegedly, into a Tim Hortons or that Eichel is a pr¡ck if the team was a perennial contender.

After the last of the SB Bills left/retired Ralph had a policy of character over talent, and how'd that work out for the Bills? Only the most epic drought in NFL history.

Only 3 Sabres goalies have a better save% than Miller but 2 of them played in less than 30 games (the list has a minimum of 20). The only one better is Hasek

steve shields is light years better than miller

If Sharks buy out Kane how about

Eklund, meloche, Hertl, 2022 1st

For

Eichel

Is my ask too big? Eklund is the big piece to me, Meloche is a good RD propect, Hertl has a modified NMC but is good, could give SJ some cash relief and could be flipped at deadline

This is not a political view :

Florida Governor Ron DeSantis looks like every 80's movie villain ever. Like the angry cartel boss, or the corrupt chief of police, or alien political figure with a human mask on. Amiright ?

OK, carry on.

Meloche is a little older, didn't he get drafted the same year Eichel did.

Well, it's a community in Buffalo where that kind of bar might be. The Derek Roy roomers are pretty wild. And they aren't rumors. Not that there's anything wrong with that.
