Sadly it was the highlight of the night. It might have been his pants, but it didnt look good. The Sabres somehow look farther away from competing this year than they did two years ago despite some decent adds in Zucker and McLeod and the emergence of Kulich as a player. We simply do not get enough from Quinn, Cozens, and Benson. Not enough production and defensive liabilities. https://www.espn.com/nhl/team/stats/_/name/buf/table/team/sort/plusMinus/dir/desc

I think the Chiefs understand that they could play only 2 offensive linemen and we still won't be able to dial up pressure.

This could potentially be the worst thing that has ever happened. But there's a slim chance that this could be huge. Then again it may be a big nothing. Its definitely big though.

I can picture @Sweats hanging out in the feminine hygiene aisle, assessing potential threats, and taking defensive measures and its really amusing.

You mean like a non lame duck? I think we just call them ducks.

I'd like to see his winning % improve to 100%, if we are focusing on stats.

I'd like to see him end up in Houston.

He's going to break the record against someone. I don't really care which opponent it happens against. If he breaks Gretzky's record in a 7-1 loss why would that bother us? If he breaks the record by scoring 14 goals against us that evening, I could see that bothering me. Seems unlikely. I looked it up. It was the Canucks.

They really should add changing a tire and programming a VCR to the combine.

In this scenario you've concocted Josh allows Haillee and the kids to go live in Los Angeles rather than in Buffalo where his job is and then she issues him ultimatums and his marriage depends on him playing for the Chargers or Rams? Why is she such a horrible B word in your fantasy?

Great game. Excellent performance by team USA but I think Canada got the better of the high quality scoring chances last night. We had our chances to win it and Binnington made the saves he had to make. USA was sloppy defensively and we really missed McAvoy and Hughes. Two guys chased the puck and left McDavid all alone. Definitely wouldn't recommend that. Huge moment for McDavid and his legacy. Flashbacks of the Vancouver Olympics. The 2026 Olympic Games can't get here fast enough.

Hes on his just in case USA doesn't have enough forwards. Playing still seems like an outside chance for Tage. Pesce playing is more likely. I like Tage but I hope he isn't in the lineup.

Yes. The World Cup of Hockey is coming back in 2028. Between a commitment to the Olympics and World Cup we will be on an every 2 years cadence with international best on best tournaments. The 4 Nations Faceoff is one and done unless the NHL backs out of the Olympics or the World Cup folds. An IIHF sponsored tournament or at least a tourney that is not limited to NHL players will be much better. Czechs, Slovakians, and Russians should have an invite at minimum. Germans and Swiss are catching up.

I agree. I do not get too upset over what happens during the playing of our national anthem but actively booing is a trashy move. I hope American fans refrain from booing the Canadian anthem tomorrow night but I think as a nation we are WAYYYYY past behaving based on any kind of principle.

It turns out that not a lot of men who were robbed after soliciting prostitution wanted to come forward for some reason. I am as shocked as you are.

In all fairness, you have a lot fewer elders than I do. Its a far easier task.

For science. Thats a pretty important detail IMO. Not everyone understands the warrior spirit.

Lock, Stock, and Two Smoking Barrels is an excellent movie. Maybe start there and end there. I thought Layer Cake was a Ritchie movie but I was wrong. The Man from UNCLE was another solid movie. S*atch is wildly overrated but its fine. Its basically Lock Stock but produced by Hollywood. I watched the Covenant on a flight and it exceeded my expectations. You're welcome.

I firmly believe Thursday will be a rematch. Can't see the Fins beating Canada but they played tough against Sweden and Sweden gave Canada a game. The commutative laws of hockey suggest Finland has a real shot here if you believe in that kind of thing and I do not. Saturday night was fun but it will be a bitter pill if we lose the rematch during the game that actually matters. We will have a home ice advantage on Thursday. Goaltending and defense has been the difference so far. Team USA prioritized skaters and physical play. I still don't get loading up on Rangers that are having career worst seasons but one look at the style of play and its easy to see why Tage didn't get an invite. To make this squad you had better play a complete 200 foot game.

Dude, have you ever transmitted class 3 level NSA documents from your phone at the gym? Do you have any idea how stressful that is? When someone gets in your space while you're transmitting top secret government docs from the squat rack all options are on the table. I have shot putted kettlebells at peoples heads and discus tossed plates at knee caps in the name of national security.

That voicemail is real. And at the same time, Cog was Martin's best friend on the team.

USA looked excellent. Two Tkachuks on one line proved to be too many Tkachuks for Finland. Loved the physicality of Team USA which will be needed against Canada Saturday night. Matthews and Hughes showed flashes of chemistry. If that line can gel we got a nice shot at winning this thing. Defense and goaltending were excellent as I expected. Jokiharju scoring was comical. I don't think we can match Canada in terms of high end skill. McKinnon, McDavid, and Crosby on a unit is ridiculous. But I do think USA can skate with any team and our speed and forecheck will be a problem for every team. Binnington made saves when it mattered but I thought he was shaky. Advantage USA in net. Love that this game will NOT be played in Montreal. Sweden winning on Saturday puts more pressure on Canada to get a regulation win but Sweden losing pretty much makes this tournament a two team race between Canada and USA. Go Finland?

I heard hes a towel sniffer. And it wasnt an isolated incident....

God I hope so.

I could give you a great many examples of why people don't like him but I highly doubt its worth another second of my time. Why do you love him so much? Has he saved a bus load of orphans from certain doom? Has he cured lethal disease?
