The NHL is idiots. Doc Emmerick is the WORST play-by-play announcer I have ever heard. He makes horrible jokes that fall flat, his voice is grating, his vocabulary is archaic and he calls the game like he's watching a boys gym team play handball in the pool.

He probably turns off more viewers than he draws in. Casual fans would probably rather watch WWE and trust me, WWE is putrid these days.

Two fun facts: Emrick calls water polo for NBC during the Olympics, or at least he used to.

WWE's stock is an incredible value right now, and I hate wrestling.

Most people I know feel the same.

I've never had coffee. Never even tried it.

Love the kessel move but do you think it’s a concern with his age I was thinking we would go with someone younger around 25 or so

Never ? It’s pretty good but lots of people put cream sugar and all that other bullpoop which makes zero sense to me

I use it to speed up metabolism And start my workout .

Now's not the time to give up assets for a veteran that is clearly aging. Hell, most want to get rid of a veteran currently on the team because they think he's rapidly aging.

Why use an artificial enhancement? Why not just let your metabolism speed up naturally as a result of working out?

He’s 30. 4 years left on his deal. Had 92 points in 82 games and can still skate with the best of them. Marleau is still chugging at 39. If anyone can play into their mid 30’s I would bet on Kessel.

I’ve been using coffee for my workouts for ever lots of people suggested that but I don’t want to mess with my mojo lol ( if it ain’t broke don’t fix it )

You could say it’s a weird drug I like my heart beating and everything rushing to my body

True but it depends on the price he’s going to be 31 at the start of the season then with the up and coming lockout (33)when we start pushing for the playoffs hard core

I just have the feeling the Sabres are going to trade for a younger winger and maybe an old vet for the 3rd line like Carl Haglin

All good points. I just see that the potential for that kind of move from Botts this offseason. One of Scandella/McCabe + for an established winger to play with Jack.

Doesn't McCabe have the housley connection?
Scandella is a guy jbotts traded for.

Not sure if either is moved

this was the question I posed to you, gerbs:

how many times this year did jack's play look like he lost his passion?

- Michael Pachla


Many times. Just like ROR, Sam, Evander, Kyle, Risto , Pommer etc.

It's just natural when you put on the Sabres sweater.
