I wish Lehner watched old video of Johnny Bauer and saw what a poke check is.

Everybody sucks and all of you are bumholes

"I was born in Elgin, Texas. My daddy taught himself the carpenter trade doin' for the black folk there. I tell you anything that man put his hand to- table, chair, wedding chest- he'd make that wood sing. Now one day a man, Mr. Theo Purcell, come around. He a white man. Own his own store... stable...hotel. He say to my daddy, 'I hears you the finest carpenter in Elgin.' My daddy tell him, 'Well I can't say one way or the other, but uh I knows a bit about somethin'.' So Mr. Theo Purcell take my daddy to this house he was buildin'. Biggest house in town. Then walk in there and say, 'This here gon' be the library. What you think about that?' My daddy say, 'Well I thinks you need some bookcases.' 'Well then that's what I want you to make me.' Ten month my daddy worked there. And when he finished bring me around. 'Uh, Mr. Purcell this here my boy. I'd like to show him what I done.' 'Well, come on in!' Through the front door. Just like that. When we did- when I seen them bookcases all carved and scrolled with flowers, baskets of fruit, little angels floatin' in the corner...that was the most beautiful thing I'd ever seen. About a month later another man come round. 'I seen what you did for Theo. Can't let that old dog top me. You come around my house and I'll show you what I need.' My daddy go with him to the edge of town. Wasn't nothin' there but six white men. Twelve foot of rope and the pepper tree they hung him from."

There must be a lot of Girgensons all over the ice. Everybody on both teams is falling all over the place

Bad game, no doubt. Still, it's 1-0.

A lot of teams make mistakes disappear by scoring 3 or more goals

Thats true and that could be an option with the nucks but ultimately i think it'll stem from the fact that nobody's really willing to commit to a long term deal with him.
- Sabresfan-365



That's mainly speculation though.

If Kim really hates him, he's gone no matter what and that certainly lines up with them not even talking to him, because who are the Sabres to turn away offense?

She does. She has. She wanted him gone two years ago.

They were never seriously talking extension.

I don’t have a ton of sources but that’s 1000% the case

They're in a bind because he clearly has no interest in any AHL time even though it would probably do him wonders.

The talent is there but it's not coming together.

I assume cause he's not very good.

Not that Falk and co are better but you can see why he's been scratched.
