Her 'vacation' fund is getting close to 500K

I love that society is giving her the proper support but I am not too keen on this money part of it. Hopefully it goes to charity. I have been called worse by my hockey coaches and I have yet to receive a dime.

i have a feeling we're stuck with Ville or he'll get the Kotalik treatment if his production stays the same
- EricNearBuffalo



Ville will be fine.

Why are we dumping him after one year?

SOO true.. one of the first things coaches do when a HS player gets to college is just grind the (frank) out of their confidence because they don't want them to be thinking they are some hot shot best in the world to grace the gridiron.

I think Ville will improve.. but I don't know if we will ever get what we paid him..

I am hoping he tops 45 points or 20 goals. I would be some what satisfied.

I think Roy in a package deal for Stall makes perfect sense. Pittsburgh would be getting an 80 point 3rd line center. Throw in a Defensive D man like Weber and a couple of picks and it makes sense for both sides. Thats if Stall would sign a long term deal.

Dreger just tweeted that it's going to be a quiet day - I wouldn't doubt it. The hype will subside, there won't be any trades, everyone will pick at their positions and the order will be just as predicted.

Dreger will be wrong!!.. I have waited for today's fireworks for A LONG TIME.. and by god there will be fireworks!!

I agree on the support part but the context of hockey coach is totally different. What happened on the bus was humans being evil - for a coach it's just a tool to enforce discipline - similar to how the military uses it.

I'm thinking as soon as one deal is done.. then a in division team will need to make a move to compare to them.. then it will be another rival in the same conference.. then another.. then the other conference needs to match it..

its gonna happen...

I honestly think Howson trading Nash is holding up the flood gates. How Howson still is employed is beyond belief to be honest, I can see Craig Patrick phasing him out here shortly. I don't know what to think about what Darcy will do, the Sabres are in a great position with 4 solid picks to gain help in the middle via trade but I would not be surprised if we drafted four prospects.

i'm not implying they'll dump him after one year, hence "if his production stays the same" - next season
