I’m happy for Okposo. Hopefully he continues to have a renaissance season. It’s a miracle that he’s playing the game at all. I just don’t get the connection you’re trying to make after that.
I think the connection is that "Lou sucks."

I legitimately worry about every hit he takes. He's a good guy. I don't want to see him permanently incapacitated.

If Okie walked away from the game tomorrow, I wouldn't question it.
I’ve wondered what his plans are after this year. Buffalo would happily take him back on the ice in his role but he’d be taking a pay cut. He’d be taking a pay cut if he chose to continue playing anywhere, obviously. Their organization clearly loves him and if he has any interest in working in a front office role after his playing career I have no doubt they’d offer him a job doing something he was interested in.

If it wasn’t for the scary head injury history I’d have no doubt he’d play more for sure…but he’s a family guy and he knows what he almost lost. Maybe he just wants to live out the dad life full time. He’s certainly earned it. Maybe he wants to play another year and continue being a leader to all the Sabres kids who refer to him as dad. Maybe he wants a future in hockey off the ice. He‘s going to have the opportunity to choose any of those or anything else. And I have no idea which way he’s thinking.

Same players. Same coaches. Same management.

All you have to do is win.

4th in Goals per Game
3rd in Goals Allowed per Game
4th in Save Percentage

For all the worry about Pelech, he and Pulock are both in the Top 15 in +/- in the league

Brock on pace for about 100 points and has 2 GWG's already

MB tied for 4th in assists

5 wins in a row

Can we stop saying, 'geez, if ____ would only ____

We're on a roll, look better each game. Our next 6 games are:


We could be 12-4 after this

Right now, the glass is half-full, not half-empty

I've wondered when this would take place...

After his 21-22 season in the USHL, it just seemed like the (considerable) hazing issue at 14 wasn't going to remain enough to keep an NHL team from chancing it with him.

Go Bruins, an unexpected 10-1 and management decides to take on a PR distraction even if they tried to time it late Friday EST.
