Just researched, the count of points lost by the refs goes up by 1 again. Dahlin takes a high stick, obviously, Avs go down and score the same series.

Granato needs to tell the boys to start drilling officials with dump ins until it's corrected. Can't suspend us for playing the puck, but by the third or fourth hit, they'll get it.

If they can't hit the net how do you figure they can hit a smaller moving target. Better to have 2 guys hold a ref still while someone tries to run him. If we could only find a player willing to run his body into another body. Oh well, it was a thought anyway.

This weekend was brutal.

Friday basement flooded. Have to rip out all carpet and tile.

Saturday wake up to no heat.

Today wake up and only have hot water run out quickly while showering.

Everyone knows my opinion on Defenseman in the top five they just take way to long for my liking i believe the forwards have a bigger impact and make a difference in year 1 or 2

Nope. Downspout Drains got blocked with ice and leaves somehow.

Insurance said you need flood insurance. Doesn’t cover ground water.

If it would have came from the roof or a burst pipe then covers it.
Next time I know just break open wall and hit pipe with a wrench. 🙄

Oh yea cut about 18 inches of drywall up. Learned they half assed insulated the finished basement.

Might as well just rip it all out at this point.

Still have to add rd to the pipeline. But I see what you are saying…

IF… the Sabres wanted to fix rd and try to acquire one via trade or free agency, who would your target be?

I mean, they have one needed a rd for dahlin since they drafted him. Im sure they can wait one or two more seasons to find someone…

Lets hope so. Flooding sucks. Anyone who hasnt had their drain tile changed out needs to own a submersible utility pump. So many 100 year old houses in the area. It's pretty common.

We had to put 30’ of channel drains and a sump pump on a backup in our basement and French drain outside for similar reasons. A-holes next door sold their house and new buyers tore it down and build above my grade. Got all of their water. City said all code, nothing to see here

I have a raised ranch with the garage built under the house.

I've been using a pump twice a week for the past month to pump the garage out. Thankfully the garage is set 9" below the walkout basement so it doesn't flood in there.

Can't friggin wait for spring

I think I've finally convinced the wife to let me rent a jackhammer and replace our drain tile this summer. I'm kind of excited. The excitement will probably last one day. Ive got glass block windows, so i have to carry all the cement out of my basement in buckets.
