  1. I hate that sites put out stuff like this each year. But if it was actually done on the Bills official website, that takes it to another level all together.
  2. Back when their were only 2 Canadian teams, Montreal and Toronto. The story on how Montreal lost out on a tie breaker for the last playoff story is pretty interesting. I just found it on wikipedia. I know how people love that site, but I'll trust the info.
  3. I won't say I'm bored, but I'm definitely more interested in Mike's story. He was my favorite character in Breaking Bad though, so it's only natural I'm going to lean towards his story.
  4. It might not mean anything at all though. Poturalski from UNH had been a participant at our camps previously (most likely because he's a local kid). He was near the top of the scoring list this year and wound up signing with Carolina.
  5. I've been in the Raleigh area of NC for just about 2 years now. I don't know if it's big around here or it's just purely random, but there are at least 6 different mexican places all within a 10 minute drive from my house... that I know of. My wife is big on frozen drinks, so up to this point, that is really the only thing we've graded the places on. The main piece of culture shock is the number of fast food joints. Everyone here should be over 300 pounds because those places are everywhere, with people walking away with their 1 gallon jugs of sweet tea. Oh, and I was in Boston for the last 14 years, so I can't really compare this to Buffalo. Too much changed already over that time in the Boston/Hamburg area I grew up in.
  6. Absolutely. Nothing major wound up happening, but that's the exact type of play that cannot happen in hockey. He needs to be hit hard for it. He's already got a suspension history, so they may be able to hit him a little harder. I don't remember it specifically, but apparently he was already suspended in the past for a stick swing to Jeff Carter's face in the playoffs. He could be in serious trouble given that.
  7. Do they look at how past films released on Easter weekend have performed? I'd imagine you'd see similar drops over the years.
  8. For those of you who do know a bit more about the characters, who would be candidate villain/villains for the Defenders?
  9. I like what they have going here. Each show has that much grittier feel to it, but so far, they're each very different. A Punisher show would definitely be able to feel unique when compared to Jessica Jones and Daredevil. I'm not all that familiar with the Luke Cage character, but I wonder how different that show will feel from Jones given that it is directly spun off of it and they're both characters with similar super powers.. Yes, you could say that about Punisher showing up in Daredevil first, but he's definitely a very different character. And I'm not trying to crap on the Luke Cage show before it starts. I just don't know a thing about him. I know it will be on my list of shows though because they've done so well with their Netflix shows right now.
  10. I'd need to see some shift charts, but our guys had been out there for probably about two minutes at that point. They were gassed too. Let's face it, they're not going to go to a second line at that point, especially with Kane already out.
  11. This ship is headed in the right direction. They don't quit.
  12. I always hear people talking about the director's cut of Kingdom of Heaven, which makes it a really good movie. I don't know if that one makes it a longer movie or just modifies stuff, but it's definitely one I hear a lot.
  13. There is nothing more valuable than this string of come from behind wins. That's the kind of thing that is going to make these kids believe in themselves. They're already dangerous, but that "we're not done yet" mentality would make them so much more so. I know a lot of things played a role in it, but this team is on the verge of doing something that will mean a lot in terms of rebounding from the last couple seasons. They're close to catching last year's division champs in the standings. Yes, everything went wrong there, but to me that would be a huge sign of how quickly this can be turned around.
  14. At this point, I'm convinced that Daryl will be sticking around for a while. They've quickly built up a big rivalry between him and Dwight. That needs to be allowed to play out for a while. We can get two main sources of tension for a while, Rick-Negan and Daryl-Dwight. As for who gets killed, I'll still say that it need to be more than one person to have any lasting impact. The only one I'd be willing to listen to is if it does wind up being Maggie instead. He picks Glenn, but she runs out to stop him. She says something about being pregnant with his baby, then Negan pauses, and Lucille's her in the face. That right there would get your shock value and establish him as an evil bastard. Oh, and after last night, I really hope that hallucination Merle comes back next week. I can picture him calling Daryl a dumbass for letting Dwight catch him off guard four times now. Am I somehow merging him with Red Foreman when I imagine him calling Daryl a dumbass or was that actually something he'd say?
  15. What's wrong with that guy's eye, right behind the glass?
  16. Only time will tell, but I do think Compher is going to turn out to be a very good player. Our fans have been gushing over Fasching a bit excessively, but lost in all of that is how Compher's season was far better. Granted, he's playing for a better team and a hell of a set of linemates, but he's definitely looking like a great asset right now for Colorado. But with that said, if he's the only part of those trades I look back on and wish we still had in the organization, I'm going to make that trade in hindsight just about every time.
  17. I just wish Larsson had hit the 20 goal mark. Since everything he scores is a game winner, that would make us a playoff team... hell, it would win us the division. edit: And did anyone else have the honor of being right near the Carolina fan who was walking out of the arena backwards, screaming "**** you", and flipping off all the Sabre fans?
  18. Odd, it works for me. I'm on a different computer now and when I click it brings the picture up right away. Oh well, only my brother could produce a son who looks like an 80 year old.
  19. https://mobile.twitter.com/BuffaloSabres/status/712413931336290304 Apparently the Sabres put a picture of my nephew on their Twitter today. I'm making that same face at him while my wife took the picture.
  20. I'm there. I don't know where I'm sitting yet though because my brother bought them. He said something like 13 rows up. Ruhwedel?
  21. That's where I am right now too. It was a bit of a let down given what happened in the previous episodes.
  22. It'll be nice to actually see a game in person tonight. I don't think I've been at a rink in over a year.
  23. My guess is that they find a working Netflix account somewhere.
