      We don't need any more nuts around here.

  5. Sabres coach Nolan on Hodgson's play as of late: "The biggest switch involves Hodgson being demoted to the fourth line. And Nolan acknowledged he’s toying with the thought of having Hodgson sit out a game by saying: "He’s pretty close to there, too."

      Everyone has 100% hindsight. Imagen if we took Beach (with was rumoured) instead of hodgson. CDC would become a bigger crap show then it already is

      Pretty happy we ended up with Kassian out of it all who's looking like a gem.

      To be fair in the toxic waste dump that is Buffalo and the Sabres right now.. it would be difficult for any player to thrive. Much less a young player expected to be a team leader.

  6. What's the deal with some of these ranks I've been noticing lately?  Rainbow Butt Monkey?  Temporary assistant to dada dada dada?  Is there some sort of weird CDC cult that once in, you get a new rank?

    Gotta love the wannabe mods on the “Adults Table.”  Removed by Heffy for calling out a different mod.  Didnt violate any rules. Just called out an abuse of ‘power’.  Guess wannabe mods dont like criticism?

      Literally LITERALLY a series of comments about important it is to have people on there with different opinions to keep others honest and critique while offering a different point of view.  A place where you can be open minded and call out others for boorish opinions and for acting like petulant know it alls.

       

      But you got removed for calling out a different mod...by a guy who regularly suggests physically harming or murdering other hockey players on different teams and committing genocide against citizens of a nation in conflict because he is on the other side; for not acting like an adult?

       

      K.  Seems about right for that person.

      I must have missed something. I saw nothing about anybody wanting to harm or murder opposing team’s hockey players. Nor have I seen anything about calling for a genocide.

      We need speed on the back end but the UFA class looks pretty abysmal for that.

      I mean we got Jimmy R's golden egg, Ryan Reeves available as a UFA should Motte leave via trade/FA.

      My thoughts on the Trade deadline:
      Motte goes for a Conditional 3rd that upgrades to a 2nd. Maybe more if we can do a sign and trade.
      Boeser goes for picks/roster player and a prospect
      Miller goes for boat load. Picks, a top 4 RHD and a top prospect
      If Garland goes for it be for a good haul too. Picks or a top prospect with a roster player.

      Having a ton of trade capital is important for teams to take on bad contracts. Dumping Poolman will cost us at least a few draft picks. Seems like a bad year to dump Myers, so I would keep him since he has been doing quite well with OEL on that shutdown role.

      smithers joe

      i see miller to rangers for schneider, a first and a 4th;

      i see garland to new jersy for mercer, shakahamadulin and a 2nd.

      i see boeser to minny for addison and  fiala.

      i see hamonic and poolman waved

  11. [discussion] OEL

     

    MIN is still doing pretty good despite having Parise and Suter on their books.

     

    Ive been playing around with the buy out calculator for OEL. I wonder IF you retain 2 million on OEL and OEL agrees to a trade, can u move him?

     

    Its definitely better in some years than a 4 million + cap hit and more or less the same for the 2 million + buy-out years.

      If we're going to try and stay competitive, then dead cap will kill us, but if we're fully rebuilding and acquire some picks and bad contracts to bomb, then why not?

    3. King Heffy

      King Heffy

      Because over a long term it handicaps the franchise too much.  I'm fine with a bad contract that can eventually moved, but any GM who either retains salary or uses a buyout needs to be fired on the spot.

    4. Elias Pettersson

      Elias Pettersson

      I'd try and move him first.  Retaining $2 million would be fine if JR decides to do a proper rebuild, as the dead cap would be off the books in 4 years once we hopefully are a playoff team again.  At $5 million perhaps he has positive value and we can get a pick or prospect for him.  We would need to convince him that we are rebuilding and that he should move on to a cup contender.  Perhaps he doesn't want to be here either and live through another rebuild like Arizona.  Who knows.

    2. NewbieCanuckFan

      NewbieCanuckFan

      He's got no cap space to go the free agent route that much and it also makes trades extremely difficult.....so it's not like he has alot of options available.

       

      Not doing anything might be the best move he can make.  Let's see what the drafted guys can do & fill in the rest of the positions with cheap UFA's.

       

      What this club doesn't need is another franchise killing Loui E type of contract.

  17. Any doge dietary experts around?  Wondering if anyone has experience giving their pooch oat yogurt as a lactose free alternative to plain Greek yogurt (in small amounts)?  I did a quick google check on the ingredients and to my knowledge they are all good for dogs.

      not an expert, just a long time owner. All our dogs have loved oat based things, usually treats we make them. 

       

      One thing for sure, you'll find out pretty fast if they can handle it or not. 

       

      Is there a reason you want this particular product?

      By no means an expert, but I give my dog frozen yogurt with fruit in a kong regularly. Gives her something to focus on and work at and I have always been under the impression it's good for her.

  18. Any drummers familiar with e drums on here?  Got some questions for you if you don't mind

    1. CoquitlamDave

      CoquitlamDave

      Recently in the market too!  Drum'd my whole life... Missing beating the old skins as the kids and basement renter both don't enjoy it.  Looking to buy a set.  From my first look i think the Ales Nitro with the mesh seem like the best purchase.  Prolly going to pull the trigger in the next week or two

       

    2. Angry Goose

      Angry Goose

      @CoquitlamDave right on.  For me, because I live in a condo space and noise is a premium.  Do you know of any modular e kits?  I'd like to get a snare, hi hat, pad for double bass kicks.  I'll add toms/other symbals down the road.

    3. Tre Mac

      Tre Mac

      Almost bought a strike pro kit but wussed out at the last second.  Problem with the smaller sets is the feel of the set.  It would also suck buying a $1k and then wanting to upgrade later.  But then again it would suck spending $2k-3k and not playing them. 

       

      Sorry I am not a drummer..... yet. 

  19. Any For Honor PS4 players here?
