He was formerly the interim gm and a hold over from the old regime. No way he was going to stay long term, even if you ignore all the Mitch Miller stuff.

sleep with the vicious posted:Anyone read Teemu's book? I'd like to read it but I've been burned by books like Nic Lidstroms where he just reads through the results of every game instead of any stories or insight Lidstrom was one of the ten best hockey players ever, but lol if you think his autobio would be anything but relentlessly boring.

Zodijackylite posted:That was an entertaining gaffe by Rask. Yep it's a tough division and a young team and things aren't quite coming easy, but a lot of good things coming as well. Kakko has been looking real good lately but not yet getting rewarded on the scorecard. Somehow feels like Chytil being out hurt them a lot...probably because Zibanejad has been struggling and Strome kinda sucks and Howden sucks. Hopefully will be a good growth year but the vets who aren't getting it done need to figure out how to get it done.

ThinkTank posted:Hockey memoirs fall into two equally dull categories: Curtis Joseph's (Cujo) covers his, uh, unusual childhood and entry to the NHL and that part is worth reading. Unfortunately, the co-author seems to have done little more than lightly edited interview transcripts so it's not exactly an engaging read and the rest of his book on the pro career falls squarely into the first category. Then again, the first half also more or less matches the second category, so you could say that it covers both bases.

https://twitter.com/buffalosabres/status/1359883848805416960?s=21 This... is actually pretty cool? I also didnt know that the first African-American NHL player was on the Sabres. Edit: quote:Wajed landed on a design that paid homage to Val James, who became the first Black player born in the United States to appear in an NHL game when he made his Sabres debut on Nov. 1, 1981. He incorporated design elements from the NBA's Buffalo Braves and made reference to Breaking Barriers, the local organization that will benefit from sales of the T-shirt.

Spring Break My Heart posted:Robert Parish is a better basketball player than Marleau is a hockey player but fits the mold of a second tier star who never got hurt just stuck around forever. Career games in the NFL is gonna be like 10 different kickers. For the NFL, it's mostly kickers and punters. The only guys in the top 10 who weren't strictly that were George Blanda (HOF played like 27 years, but his last 7~ as a kicker/back up QB), Jerry Rice (Every receiving record ever by a mile), and Brett Favre (Who did most of his consecutively & retired with most everything).

Jovial Cow posted:Has anyone heard any status updates or ETAs on either Chytil or Panarin? Chytil's still weeks away going by the original estimate I think. I suspect he got a broken arm or some bullshit. No real update on Panarin other than he "tweaked" something and there's no practice today so we won't hear whether he's gonna play tomorrow until...tomorrow

Good dog this season was obviously always a bad idea but now that its actively infecting the North division I would like to selfishly reiterate that the season is stupid and should be cancelled thanks.

How was this not part of their restrictions from the beginning? I mean, heres half the problem right here. Once it gets into the circle of players youre going to have a hard time stopping it fast enough if theyre asymptomatic. I dont think asking them to not see their family is good, but why are they not being required to stay at home when theyre not working? And then their family staying at home too. Its not like theyre going to go broke making this adjustment.
