12 wins in the last 38 games(since 10 game win streak), which amounts to 25 or 26 wins in a regular season

we had 25 wins last season

to put this in perspective, since the win streak we have pretty much won games at the same rate as last season

This is depressing... But we still have Hookers and blow to cheer us up...

Montour looks solid.

That should cheer the hookers up a little.

I figured it all out : We're not a good hockey team and we need more talented players.

I did like his game. However I have a feeling he might be caught out of position a few times with him moving up on offense as much as he did.

Perhaps. He needs a stay at home partner.

He does seem to backcheck hard. Off the line he's one of the quickest on the ice at any given time. I'll take my chances. Was really impressed with his execution on the Mitts goal.

His ex / co teammate berglund had the carpet pulled out from under him.

Sabres could have handled the situation better, instead they ripped up his contract immediately.

16 million gone. Players have family commitments ect.

Seriously? Lehner asked for help and they helped him. This guy took off - there is a giant difference.

Ahhh it depends. Jack is a year younger then I am and I can only imagine the lifestyle I’d have with a $950K salary and playing hockey for a living. Same age as Reinhart and I’m sure you’re all aware of the rumours of the constant snow fall inside and outside of his house. They are both talented and really good at playing the hockey but we have no idea what they do off the ice. I’d assume they are more mature then the average 22-24 year old but by how much is up to interpretation.

How is it possible to sniff coke all night and slam booze and broads and still be an NHL professional athlete the next day?

Have you read about Jack’s game day regimen? How could he be sniffing white powder all night and then go and do all that? I know Jack is more of a pro than Samson but how can they possibly function?

I play men’s league hockey after work and I’m done for the day.


Moreover, a guy I used to work with 15 years ago died 3 days before Christmas because he was sniffing coke laced with fantanyl. Dead as a door nail. Why risk 5 million plus a year to pretend you are at studio 54?

How do nhl players watch their teammates do dumb stuff and not say anything?

Can u imagine Pegulas reaction if Sammy got busted with the coke?
