Ah, another guy making fun of someone's friends daughter.

You get beat down all day by every poster, then you strike back on a personal level.

is there any possible scenario where the sabres give in to poor-boy jack's demands for disk replacement surgery?
- Michael Pachla


What I heard from a reliable source is once he fails his physical the Sabres are no longer liable for his health. Jack can then go get whatever he wants and the sabres are on the hook for nothing.

HE will then take his surgery be out till the Olympics go win the gold and be dealt after the tournament

Why have we not heard about Jacky boy yet? I thought physicals were done today?
- DirtyDan


There has to be some serious behind the scenes drama unfolding.

Like Mike said, Sabres could be working on damage control.

Letting eichel get his preferred surgery helps his value IMO. He needs to play to get a max return. Fits the Olympics time line...

so.............. when joker was on the black hawk roster for over 40 games, does that count as a season?


still waiting for that response

- homiedclown


What's the TLDR? You think he was on the NHL roster for 2 games that he didn't play?

I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly
Be there
Like a puppet on a string
Love is just like a merry-go-round
With all the fun of a fair
One day I'm feeling down on the ground
Then I'm up in the air
Are you leading me on?
Tomorrow will you be gone?
I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string
I may win on the roundabout
Then I'll lose on the swings
In or out, there is never a doubt
Just who's pulling the strings
I'm all tied up in you
But where's it leading me to?
I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string
I wonder if one day that, you'll say that, you care
If you say you love me madly, I'll gladly, be there
Like a puppet on a string
Like a puppet on a...
String

Classy, insulting my friend's teenage daughter.

You win the internet tough guy 👊

Good thing you can just say what you want , with no repercussions. 🗣

- Boss34


You insult people pretty frequently, so I don't think you can blame me for pissing on your tirades once in a while or taking a crack.

But that was over the top, you're right, apologies.

On average, artificial disc replacement recovery time takes about 3-5 weeks; however, artificial disc replacement recovery time varies from patient to patient. Many patients can return to light activities and desk work within 1 week, but a few may not be at full activity level for up to 3 months.

winter olympics begin feb 4

Imagine someone saying that about your daughter?
I Hope she isnt fat shamed by her dad.

I think we both know the answer to that question.

You are a crybaby loser. There's a reason you see her sparingly. Good reason ☝️

who has the sabres best interest in this

their medical staff wanted a surgery, Jack refused and because of that will be unable to play this fall


one has to think the sabres could go after Jack for damages on this one, esp since the eichel camp did not file for medical arbitration
