Clifton smoked Mercer.

Clear interference

Good hit, poor outcome for Peterka

Sucks, that we can't have toughness like Dillon provides.

Edit: We do have Struble, though he's not on the ice every game...

 

[Ezpz]

Sabres crawling from behind when 30 teams haven't even started is hilariously on point.

Brutal, and deserved.

All those people can go jump in the lake.

It's not a good thing. It sucks, it's disapointing and nobody's happy about it.

But players have been hurt before and come back. Why would this be any different? You can go all the way back to Rocket Richard as an example. He was hurt a lot before he established himself. He will have a set of challenges we all wish he didn't. But most blueliners don't even make the NHL until their early to mid 20s. He's got so much time to heal and develop. This is a bump in the road.

It's absolutley insane to think that this guy's done now. His career hasn't even started yet. Any GM in the league would want him. As always, it would depend on the price.

Lilly not working out for the Leafs. Even swap perhaps?

I don’t want to move RB. It sucks we lost him for the year but I don’t see why we’d move him now. We’re not cintenders and this doesn’t really set us back much in the grand scheme of things.

 

[Gustave]

Columbus is definitely going to suck again this year. I expect they'll be battling San Jose for 32nd overall.

That second rounder in 2026 will be valuable as hell.

Lilly is a more expensive and older barron. We should have zero interest in him.

Interesting observation. What does that say about the other teams he's been on, including ours.

He forgot to mention the live DJ they had at every practice that Berube kicked out...

Another effing dud on my keeper team.

It was NOT a good hit. Initial contact was the head.

What does it say about his captaincy?

I guess it’s in the past and he doesn’t really care any more

Says more about him and why it was a mistake for him to have been named captain when he was with us...

The very least the NHL should do is require teams to publish their lineup 24H in advance during pre-season.

This makes no sense.

He never realized before that driven nhlers work hard? Is he implying that he didn't work hard at his craft in the past?

I have a hard time believing that. It just sounds like a blurb of empty calories.

Yeah it's probably been a while since Patch had to cater to that level of media.
