Great write up baller.

Wonder if the nhl "suggested " the removal of Q?

But Florida and the 7-0 said "No". Or at least a suggested suspension until further meetings...


Sabres need to come out of the west coast roadie at fake .500. Keep it rolling into the next home crowd frenzie.

what would that consist of?

8,000 instead of 7?


great to see the kids stepping up with girgens, miller, okposo, hagg, pysyk, anderson etc


also great seeing the fans sticking it to kim and terry and maybe the owners finally got the message needed

Eakin is on the road trip, Mitts is not. Thinking he could be ready by the time they come back.

That's false.

He wants his surgery. The team won't let him have it. The team wants a surgery he doesn't want. It's an extremely significant surgery. Both parties are legally within their rights. Jack is in his prime and an elite hockey player. Delaying his chance to play is absolutely, unequivocally, zero benefit to him.

- TheSabresTaco


Bolded is what I have issue with. Delaying indefinitely is not within Jack's rights. My main point is that the team and league should have stepped in by now and enforced the cba that the player has agreed to play by, which states he can have the teams' surgery of choice OR go to medical arbitration. I'm not a caveman lawyer, but does it state somewhere that if a player under the cba disagrees with part of the cba then he gets to hem and haw indefinitely while the team swings in the wind? No. He can go to arbitration and personally I am frustrated this hasn't been done yet. All the other stuff about His neck, his body is just blah blah blah. Disagreements like this are exactly why Arb is in the CBA.

Very creative writing. Do you write for a living or is it a hobby?

I'm thinking we can fake it til we make it.

Keep up the solid play for a little longer and it puts us into a really great position

Toews and Kane basically defended Q and Bowman yesterday in their post game interviews, almost making it out that they were the victims.

Absolutely disgusting

- Stripes77

why would beach be getting homophobic comments in the locker room if they players "didn't know about it"

Hawks should blow it up. Toews is a weak-body captain that took a year off cuz he didn't feel good. Clean out any remains of the 2010 incident.

And yes I'd take Kane on the Sabres
