I understand what your saying, I'm heading to vegas or Colorado. Tampa maybe.

No way I get stuck on a team like buffalo or NJ 😉

At this point I'd bet that NJ or Buff wins a cup before Tampa does again.

Don't believe comerie needs to clear waivers for conditioning stint
- Anderdog


They don't.

From an article on The Kracken sending Shane Wright down a couple weeks ago...

a conditioning loan, which allows an NHL team to send a player who has missed five consecutive games to the AHL for up to five games or a maximum of two weeks. Teams frequently use this tool for everything from a player returning from injury or illness

Im not sure Jersey has the group of players yet that can win in the playoffs. Limited playoff experience too. Won’t surprise me if they get knocked out early

Sabres are a year and two solid moves away from cup contention.

I’d still bet Tampa for this season over those two.

Two gallons of gas for the snowblower and a bottle of brown. I'm golden.

Gonna crank the heat way high in the morning in case the power goes out. If it does, we'll huddle in the den around the fireplace and drape sheets across the opening to keep in heat.

We will get maybe 5-10” of snow. I had to follow someone going 20 mph on an almost clear road for like 5 miles on my way home tonight. I show these knuckleheads pictures of my parents house from when I was back in WNY for thanksgiving. They have no words

If you bring in pk88, do you retire okposo and make pat the captain for a couple years?

2 for 17 million IMO

- Boss34

Regardless of Pat. Kyle needs to retire.

Boston is 26-4-2 after tonight's game. In terms of points, they're 54-10.

That's bonkers.

Rangers beat the Islanders last night. We're now 4 points back of them with 2 in hand. The Caps are 6 up, but we have 3 games in hand on them.

Detroit is 1 up on us.

Overall, our position is slightly better without having played. We have to win those games in hand, but that's understood.

So Northeastern isn't fairing very well this year, young Dcore. They need to make a run or they won't get in the Tournament. There last game is March 4th. That leaves I believe 19 or 20 games on are Schedule. How many does Levi play ?

All depends upon the other goalies. CA, if healthy, we can write in ink for 20 more starts. That leaves 30 for the other goalies.

Coming out of this break I think we start Anderson against Columbus and Boston on the 27th and 31st on the road, and UPL gets Deteoit at home on the 29th and Ottawa on game 2 of the back-to-back roadies New Years Day.

My gut reaction was the 20 for CA seemed a tad high, yet that is equal to his run rate so far.
Still, I do wonder if Comrie comes back and plays decently if that may allow them to go easier on CA and also allow for UPL and Levi to get some starts factored in.

Let's just hope Comrie can regain his form from much earlier in the season.
