I'm arguing about it cause I don't really want to get into how the Flyers handling of Sanheim shows they have a fundamentally flawed method of evaluating defensemen that will be a significant drag on the team's performance until there is a change in management.
- Feanor


Quit whining, Sanheim will be fine he'll go down and play big minutes and get his confidence. It's better than sitting in the stands or playing 6 mins. What's funny is the Flyers fundamentally flawed method of evaluating defensemen seems to have worked pretty good for Ghost, Provy and even Hagg , so unless Sanheim is your relative get your head out of the Sandbox and get over it. To me the D have been playing good, Sanheim just needs some confidence pretty sure Hak and Hexy know more than you. Even with Manning playing over Sanheim every team needs a guy that can be a 6/7 guy make a million and be able to come in, is him or Alt gonna be as good as the guys making 3,4, or 5 million, No not at all but every team needs them. Just like we need a scapegoat on D and its Manning. Sanheim will be back just an injury or a couple bad games away by a D man or even a trade. With Myers and Morin ready I'd package Sanheim , with St. Louis's 1st Rd pick and throw in Wiese and take Pacioretty and give us some secondary scoring, he'd be a great asset on second power play over Weal as well.

(frank) that show

D&D is awesome if everyone is really into it and you have a good Dungeon Master.

We play a lot of Magic: The Gathering too in our sweet fedoras

- Mordecai


I've got a nice collection of cards from back in the day, game is great. Was thinking about getting back into, so I went to a bar that hosts a Magic night near me (I know, amazing right?!) But everyone was playing this new style I wasn't familiar with. May have been called commander. I preferred the old standard way of playing.

Also been wanting to get into a D&D campaign as well. Still never have.

We'd let you roll squad deep with us. One of my buddies is playing a barbarian who is drunk all the time so we get into some shenanigans
- Mordecai

Well, we were specifically playing Pathfinder and I was the Drunken Master special class.

I've never played Dungeons and Dragons; somehow I don't really feel that I'm missing much.
- BiggE



I dunno.
With the right group AD&D can be a ton of fun..
I played with the same group 1 a month for 6 years..was one of my fav memories growing up.

I'd go with this:

Clarke
Poulin
Lindros
Richards
Primeau
Brindy
Giroux

Don't see a lot of players, give it their all and play with the heart he played with. Giroux also could easily jump to second on this list depending on the remainder of his career.

"If Buffalo gets a first (round pick), a prospect, a roster player and a conditional pick - which I was corrected on, frankly after I wrote that on Friday, they want a roster player in addition to the other three assets - for Evander Kane"

That's going to be a no from me dog.

I feel like the Sabres have been trying to get this kind of package for Kane since the 1800s. Jesus. Year after year with this poop
