Lots of people said he couldn't play w/out Getz.

He would get along well w Molson.

Civil War IMO was their best
The Illusion cd's are as good as any cd that has come out in the last 35 years IMO

Due to it's length, November rain was perhaps the best all time stripper song though

- homiedclown

Better than "just a stripper" tune, in my opinion of course.
The song takes you on a journey, highs and lows...ups and downs.
The single greatest power ballad of all time for me at least.

Slash: one of the best.
Axl Rose : what can you say about his talent except , exceptional.

These lists are ridiculous without the Rolling Stones.

So, hatty, and a fight.

- Der Kaiser

some days I think the stones are the most over-rated band ever

other days I love them

I don't think that was even the best ballad on the illusions cd's

the most under-rated GNR song is

When you are thinking they're overrated you're focusing on Mick

When you love them, Keith has your attention

Michael Pachla: The Buffalo Sabres could use Taylor Hall, but do they need him?
The possibility of Hall landing in Buffalo, especially for Myers, doesn't make a lot of sense at this point

- Michael Pachla


What the Sabres need is a player worth building around, and Hall, if available (which I actually doubt he is) might be the closest the Sabres get, assuming they maintain even half of their current pace. They have good pieces to build with. They don't have a cornerstone yet, and they need one.

I think they can build around the top 4 d, reinhart and girgens on the dot

after saying that I would overpay for hall as long as ennis, reinhart, big z, risto, girgens and our #1 pick stays here

Gun n Roses had a chance to be Rock n Roll legends and perhaps the best group of all time had they stayed together.
They were that good.
Their best song (IMO) that didn't and still doesn't get the notoriety it should have was November rain.

That song was non-stop back in the day. Not sure about the "didn't...get the notoriety" part. Won tons of awards I believe. I know I got sick of it - not because it's a bad song, just the overplayed factor

Yep... I liked it the first 100 times they played it on the radio in a week... after 1,234,314 it was like nails on a chalk board (just like all songs on the radio today). And they were my favorite band back then.

A team like that ends up being very good. I'm not sure it ends up elite. I want great, not simply good.

That's what I hat about radio and stuff, how they completely overplay stuff. I find hearing some of these songs now that were overplayed when I was younger to be enjoyable - Alanis Morisette (sp?), Smashing Pumpkins, etc.

if girgens is a number 2 and reinhart is a number 1, the pieces are in place with a top 4 d

I think girgens is a number 2, I did not think that before this season
Not sure if reinhart is a number 1, but if you add Hall to the mix, reinhart is given what he needs to be a number 1

Gotcha. I thought your first scenario assumed someone like Hall isn't here.
