Quoted from your blog Mike.

"Jack Eichel has to understand, and he will, he'll figure it out, that he has to work for 60 minutes," said May. "We give him latitude and leeway, but he doesn't work hard enough, because he doesn't understand it yet."

But it's just me that feels this way.

Nice to know I have an 18 year NHL veteran that sees the same thing that I do and have.

Much more validating!

Like Brad, I know that Jack will eventually get it.

But his play has lacked effort at times and i'll take an NHL 18 year veterans word over anyone else to be fair.
I knew that I was right.

Thank you for the read Mike.

Yeah, but that's the first time you actually qualified it with "at times" before it was he was just plain lazy.

One thing I've noticed is when he starts to skate hard he sometimes picks his stick up keeps his hand at about shoulder height and sticks it straight up in the air. He did it last night again when he charged into the corner after a face-off in the Ducks end. It's really weird.

Eichel is so lazy, that Moulson had to have a stairlift installed to get Eich to agree to move in.

Max I like you. I honestly do. I know you don't like me because I have tendencies to be condescending. But I know of you quite well. Last year when I first joined i talked to you about my theory that space isnt expanding, but matter was actually shrinking. I think I was stoned that night lol. Anyways I know you were in the hospital for a week or so maybe a month and a half ago, I see you are a very nice guy with everyone. I do not have a bad opinion of you at all. I am just kidding with you because you were sticking up for Shephard with your post.

I'm truly not worried if you dislike me or not.

I'm not here to be liked to be fair, I have real friends and family for that.

And, you have no idea who I am to even know that but anyway....

Also from this point forward, posts like yours will not even get a reply from me because it really isn't worth my time to type it out ....and I mean that "in the nicest way".

That cool to read the lyrics. Honestly I never knew what that song was about. Cool song for the game, but the way this world is going, music like this just doesn't seem to be appreciated by the younger culture.
- SabresPanacea

I have a lot of respect for all music, even the electronic genres. I'd just like to hear more variety at games. Hearing this song gave me vibes of what I'd imagine it would've been like at a game in the mid 70s' watching Gil Perreault and company play.

John Scott on waivers...no NHL All-Star game for you!
- Stripes77


That's interesting. I wonder how that would work? His contract isn't voided when waived, so he still has an NHL/AHL deal, so I'd think technically he could go if he clears and winds up in Arizona's farm team and they loan him out, which they would be seen as huge bumholes if they didn't.

We're doing this on purpose right? Like "reed more, post less". I've noticed it a few times and figured it for sarcasm, but on this thread it's getting harder and harder to tell.

Stamkos. Six letters.

There are infinite inside jokes that usually start from honest mistakes or pure bumhole moves.

Pending UFA. He was an RFA last season and they signed him to a 1 year deal over the summer
- MCGUIZZY


That doesn't necessarily make him a UFA.

Sharp guy wouldn't have hired Torts in the first place. They're negotiating from a position of weakness here. While it's unlikely he gets traded for scraps it's also unlikely that he commands the sort of value that would need us to include someone like Risto in any offer.
- Sabresfan-365


So was Chevy, and they got at least fair value for Kane and Bogo, and depending on who you talked to we were the ones that got ripped off

Kaiser, I kid because I care. I know you aren't the Shephard.

And yes sycophant is just an inside joke.

And Shep, I am no sycophant, I am just setting you all up for my insidious scheme to gain your trust so I can more completely destroy you all when I take control of the the internet.

Considering this is far from my best moment I will save the transvestite jokes for another time.

But that does explain my love for sippy.

Sorry sippy. You rock.

They played this song last night at the Sabres game, I'd love to hear more songs like this at games than constant electronic BS.
