pardon me while i get my geek on...

my NHL12 lineup:

Vanek - Getzlaf - Ryan
Umberger - Hodgson - Setoguchi
Ott - Zajac - Me
Bissonnette - Adam - Kaleta

Myers - Regehr
Leopold - Ehrhoff
Pardy - Weber

Lindback
Enroth
- EricNearBuffalo

goaltending is weak! and what potential did you give yourself?? A-?

Would be shocked if Ryan gets traded for 3rd line/4th liners.
If it happens Murray would have to be fired to save face.

i happen to like Umberger as a player, so that's why i traded for him.

as far as my goaltending goes, i decided to trade Miller off for picks and prospects. turned around to trade some of those picks and prospects to Nashville for Lindback. i like the philosophy of having a strong offense and defense with solid goaltending vs all-star goaltending. that's just me though. Miller wasn't winning me any Cups so i decided to try something different. i'll have to see how it goes.

i'm actually only about a C with an 82 rating (EDIT - at my current age of 30)

i tried to at least be somewhat realistic. just a role playing power forward.

Luke Adam is not a second line center. In the AHL maybe he is second line center but when I watched him on the Amerks he was horrible. The guy has the speed of a giant sea turtle on land with no confidence now after getting "coached" by Lindy Ruff.

using the age of 30 is rough ..... your player some times (depending how good they are) starts going on the decline!

and I enjoy building teams / simming season to win the cup. makes me feel good and its fun to draft.

i really wanted to see what would happen at my current age. usually i create myself as a youngster. that's the beauty of the game, you can do almost anything. if it doesn't work, start over and change it up.

i'm the same way. i wish you could sim the game uninterrupted, aside from all star games and the week before trade deadline so you could kinda get your plan of attack ready. i usually only play a few games in any given season.

men reach their athletic prime at 27, after 27 your alveoli in your lungs become less permeable.

Cheers!

whos this reggie you speak of. Regher? so we give up a 1B centreman for scrub 2nd pairing dman? thats just silly
- DDM-Coga

No not Regher. Anrej Sekera has that nickname because of his first name. It is what the players on the team call him.

Nah, North Buffalo. I'm upp there pretty often though.

I've done the Racquette lake chain near there, heading out to that park is part of what I'm looking forward to in this move.

The Town of Townawanda where I am is booming now. New businesses going up like crazy by me over on Niagara Falls Blvd and Sheridan drive .

I grew up on the West side of Buffalo and moved from there when I was 19.

Been in the town of Tonawanda for 26 years now. Its centralized and every main store you can think of is a mere 5-10 minutes from my house.

Location location location!

Good ol Patty Kane up to his usual tricks last night at a bar (Roxy's) owned by a childhood friend of mine.

Trying to pick up another one of my childhood friends daughters Ashley bwahahahah. She laughed in his face and told him that I hope one day you learn how to treat a woman. Ashley just won Miss Buffalo swimsuit competition. Pat had no chance! Bwahahah.

Way to go Ashley!

If I was a drunk I would probably be dead by now. 2 of some of my best friends growing up own 2 of the most happening bars around in Bada Bings and Roxys.

Thank God I dont need to use alcohol as a crutch to get through life.

There are pictures but I wont do that Pat.

Sorry , I promised my friend the mother of Ashley that I would NOT furnish the pictures.

I dont blame her, if it were one of my 3 daughters I wouldnt want it plastered everywhere either.

Just thought I'd share another embarrassing moment and another reason why I would never want Pat Kane playing for his home team.

B. Ryan talks heated up a fair amount yesterday. #Sabres thinking of making an offer of #Vanek + #LAdam.
