A Jack-off from Boston got drafted by Buffalo and acted like an entitled brat for 7 years, never did anything worth mentioning yet constantly pointed the finger and people still think he got a raw deal.

Yeah man, it was exciting and awesome to see Tuch bowl over that pouty man-baby. Tuch may not have the talent that Eichel has, but I'll put this in a way you can understand.

Eichel is the Grinch before saving the presents on the edge of the cliff. The one with the tiny heart.

Tuch is the Grinch after saving the presents, well in Buffalo they say, Tuch's heart grew three sizes today.

And his shot was a self own. I played here for seven years and didn’t hear anything like that. Ummmm…what was your part in that? You were made the C and never spoke like Tuch or KO. You were never PROUd to be a part of on org that practically made you the GM. Now, they didn’t make great decisions for sure, but stop being a crybaby.

Totally agree. Much like the WWE, they need more players willing to be the heel, much like the great Patrick Roy vs. Roenick back and forth from years ago.

JR bringing that personality to ATW is a lot of fun.

It was a fun game fun watch for sure.
Script could not have been written any better.

Jack's immaturity was on full display in the post game interview for sure.

Hinnostroza's play, compete level was absolutely terrific.
I'd keep him and make Girg's available.

Fitzgerald and Samuelsson are absolute keepers.
Glad to hear Adams is looking for an accomplished RhD for Powers partner. Just wonder what he is planning for Dahlin's partner.
Is Joker available?

Yep. Never had an ounce of pride in being a Sabre. None, not ever.

There's a reason Sabre fans still, still, will give a pass to Evander Kane of all people. For me, it's because it was obvious to me EVK gave 100% and cared about being a Sabre. Obvious to me. Maybe that's dumb and unexplainable, but i think it's very easy to tell when someone doesn't like you. Jack hated us from day 1.

that was a playoff atmosphere game, and I don't think there was one more intense than that since 2011. That place has definitely been louder though, but more intense? I don't think so.

The last time the place was that intense was when the Bruins came to town after the Lucic/Miller thing. Fans wanted blood and you could feel it. Was a pressure cooker feeling. When Goose lined up, ready to get his clock clea... I mean, fight Lu, even everyone up in the press box stood (I was writing for Sabre Noise then).

Never more intense in the drought era.

I will say during the 10 game win streak, the Flyers game (game 4 or 5 of the streak) had a 4 goal first period and a huge fight. It rocked for 25-minutes straight . Last night the barn was rocking from warmups until the Craig Anderson tribute after the 3 stars.

Poor Goose. Only goons should have to have staged fights. Lucic should have been two handed the second he ran Miller.

Hopefully Fitzgerald doesn't have anything serious, those 2 extra shots he got at the end of the fight were bullsh!t.

I have a take. Vegas' top players not named Jack are hitting the ends of their primes.

They're also over the cap for next season with 10F/7D/3G signed.

In fairness, Eichel signed a deal with a memorabilia company that allowed it to be the sole distributor of his name and likeness outside official team gear. I forgot the name of it. I would assume that company paid him a lot of money for that, so I would imagine he was getting pressure from said company to do that.
