GDT: Sabres at Canucks - Expansion Brothers at It Again; Jan 21, 2025, 10:00 p.m. EST

[Dubi Doo]

I've always rooted against the Canucks ever since their fanbase whined relentlessly about the big bad Bruins in 2010, then proceeded to destroy their city after losing the cup. I understand there are bad apples in all fanbases, but that seemed excessively bad. So, yay that they lost!

 

[Fjordy]

Now JT Miller will ask to be traded to Buffalo.

 

[ValJamesDuex]

Why are people whining about a 2nd traded for an NHL player. Like they don't have enough lottery tickets already.

Because that 2nd ended up being being Cole Hutson who had a great tournament for USA and looks like a really good prospect for the Caps now. Malenstyn played 8 minutes last night. You can't sweep bad moves under the carpet.

With Lafferty and NAK That 4th line rebuild has been disappointing.

If I remember right Vancouver was dealing with gang problems at the time that may of been the cause of some of that.

Please get rid of Krebs. The experiment is over. He is a crappy version of Benson who does nothing but kill possession with garbage muffin passes.

He played well last night actually. Is he a PP or 2nd line guy ? Nope. But Lindy imo was sending message to the team last night about effort, learning, and doing small things.

Yes we know... Krebs is Lindys new Matt Ellis.

Haven't seen a guy work so hard and accomplish so little in quite some time.

FFS don't put words in peoples mouths. I said he played well last night and Lindy was sending a message to guys who refuse to learn.

Not sure what words I put in your mouth but ok.

"Yes we know... Krebs is Lindys new Matt Ellis". Dont be a idiot.

Glad they won. Fighting norovirus so missed this one. Wash your hands!

"whining" sorry posting one a message board is whining. I Would say your post mirrors whining a lot more than mine does because you are crying about other people's opinions.

Its called poor asset management trading away the 43rd pick in the draft who turns out to be Cole Hutson.

Do you think you build winners trading away the 43rd pick in the draft for someone who plays 7 minutes?

and I'm sure this board would have LOVED Adams drafting a 5'10 170 PMD LD. Playing the hindsight draft game is a waste of time.

Who cares what the board thinks. Did you not watch the WJC? There is always going to be people complaining no matter who gets picked.

Quinn Hughes is 5'10.

He SuCks CaUsE hE's ShOrT.

I don’t get the point of this.

We have no idea if they would have drafted Hutson. And if they did, how would that have done anything to improve our current situation? Plus why do we need another puck moving LHD and one pretty small one at that.

Who cares about WJC. Thats not the NHL.

Those are my words and didn't even insinuate that they were your words. Relax.

Yeah. I don't get it either. I cannot imagine the Sabres drafting Hutson if we had kept the 2nd round pick.

The guys I think that the Sabres MIGHT have had on their radar would have been some of the bigger Dmen to double down (Brunicke/Pulkkinen/Fischer) or maybe a guy like Ritchie or Stiga. Maybe Plante due to "familiarity".

But I don't see Hutson as being on their radar in the slightest.

What the hell is norovirus

Basically combine the general flu with a stomach bug. You basically feel like death.....and you've got stuff coming out both ends.

It was a learning moment that anonymity in a crowd no longer exists.

I remember Don Cherry saying "oh, that would never have happened in Toronto". BS. If the same scenario played out with Game 7 at home... every yahoo for 200km away would have descended on downtown. I think it would have been even worse if Toronto won the game in that situation.

Kid caught it school. I had it all weekend. Nasty business.
