That's a really nice way of handling business.

I may pick you early when uncle ion and I draft our hockey teams. ☝️

More insulting to Mogilny: snubbed from the HoF again or Miller's # retired before his?

Neither. He's borderline for the HOF, don't think just one Byng really adds a lot to his resume, never led the league in points, only once led in goals and it was a tie, won his Cup as a mercenary and wasn't a big part of the win (11th on the team with 7 points in 23 games).

He certainly has a HOF story though.

Edit: Miller has 403 wins with the Sabres. Mogilny only played in 381 games.

What about dried mushroom soup though?

Indisputable parallel which proves that cereal is in fact soup

What if soup is actually cereal though

Mogilny doesn't deserve to have his number retired by us or by anyone. If he does, then Ramsay, Foligno and Andreychuk deserve the honor, too.

My vote is Miller’s number getting retired. Alex’s number is obscure and he scored the most goals in Sabres Single Season History. That WILL NEVER b beAt. He gets a raw deal in Buffalo. That was the last colossal goal season in the NHL maybe ever again? I set the colossal bar at 70.

Ramsay's should certainly be retired and before Miller's.

You went DEEP on that one. I had to look it up 22 games with Buffalo with 5 wins and about a 0.85 save percentage while here

Not a cereal guy, but Cinnamon Toast Crunch has to make the list. Probably either Cocoa or Fruity Pebbles, too.

But definitely Cinnamon Toast Crunch.

13 players from Avs cup roster were acquired via trade.....
5 were drafted.
But you know. "Draft and develop" is the only way.

Bad take. Lose, draft and develop is the most reliable way to get good talent.
