I like posting. Mostly in the offseason before everyone realizes they were fooled again.Lurking is an option if you are merely curious.

Lets just Lupul him
So edgy and cool.I like posting. Mostly in the offseason before everyone realizes they were fooled again.
So, it isn't about being curious and it's about being a pessimistic "I told you so". Got it.I like posting. Mostly in the offseason before everyone realizes they were fooled again.

Fair and reasonable approachHonestly, I'll believe Skinner being bought out is actually happening when the Sabres announce it.
Not before then.
On the topic of goaltending, I'm not sure I'm overly comfortable with Levi as the back up officially going into next season. Ya he has blossomed well in the minors, but I don't want another situation of say, something happens to UPL (knock on wood) & we're in the same position looking for another quality guy come part way through the season.
Not at all. There’s literally no point in being a told you so.So, it isn't about being curious and it's about being a pessimistic "I told you so". Got it.
Yeah, I don’t get the downside of Levi having a little more time in Roch while UPL has a vet backup and gets more comfortable as the starter. It seems obvious.On the topic of goaltending, I'm not sure I'm overly comfortable with Levi as the back up officially going into next season.

Sign a veteran back up imho.
The cone would at least incidentally get in the way sometimes. And would take far more contact.
You don't see the downside? Have you seen expected solid backup Comrie? Levi seems to be able to win games. Even if he doesn't play great the team does well in front of him.Yeah, I don’t get the downside of Levi having a little more time in Roch while UPL has a vet backup and gets more comfortable as the starter.

How about we get a good goaltender? Do you think all backups have to be bad?You don't see the downside? Have you seen expected solid backup Comrie? Levi seems to be able to win games. Even if he doesn't play great the team does well in front of him.
Skinner doesn’t have to be waived before the buyout. He can’t be. His NMC means they aren’t allowed to waive him. That’s a way to move a player to another team (as Goodrow learned). They just tell him he’s being bought out and that’s that.
We thought we got a good one remember? We also have one, Levi.How about we get a good goaltender? Do you think all backups have to be bad?
Who is this “we” you speak of? Is that a royal we?We thought we got a good one remember? We also have one, Levi.
Well, we're going to need some kind of experienced number three anyway. Rochester doesn't have any goalies right now?We thought we got a good one remember? We also have one, Levi.
He will have games in the NHL.? Lindy already said in an interview that now is a different time and it seems he is not going to bet on UPL, that he will play 60-70 games.Also, development matters. Levi needs games.
Ok… I didn’t say Levi would get zero games in the NHL if he was the backup.He will have games in the NHL.? Lindy already said in an interview that now is a different time and it seems he is not going to bet on UPL, that he will play 60-70 games.
While I agree we need another experienced goalie, I'm not sure it will be a full NHL backup, but more likely number three.
Well, he can probably play 25-30 games, that’s not so little.Ok… I didn’t say Levi would get zero games in the NHL if he was the backup.
