I'm sorry that Keefe is doing this to your #6 in save % and #2 in GAA goaltending duo (which lol who saw that coming, Dubas is a genius again!!!)

Now let me go look at Jack Campbell's numbers again.

I’m not trying to say Keefe is getting too cute or anything like that, it’s more the implication that Murray is somehow hurt again and that Samsonov is showing cracks in an almost exact mirror to Campbell’s downfall last year

The point of load management is that you do it before they're injured and it's been what we've been wanting the Leafs to do for like five years at this point.

The weird part is that there is no load, though, Samsonov started the last game before the Christmas break. Murray needing more time implies something a little more than rest is going on.

Which is fine, at no point did I say that Keefe shouldn’t be resting him if he needs it and I don’t know why multiple people now have taken it that way, but the knock on these goalies was that Murray’s never healthy and Samsonov is spotty and I can’t help but notice these things in that context.

4' of snow is absolutely insane, goddamn
The southern suburbs got 6' of snow just a month ago. As crazy as it sounds 4' isn't that big of a deal.

The problem was Cat1 hurricane force winds combined with the 4' of snow all in a 36 hour window.

On Friday I drove to the end of my street to get some last minute supplies from Rite Aid and the white outs were so bad I couldn't see the end of my own car hood. And that was after only an inch or 2 of snow had fallen.

I don't think I-90 or any of the other highways were closed for more than 24 hours after the 2014 Snowvember event with it's 7' of snow. Where as with this blizzard everything has been shut down since Friday, we're at 72-96 hours with all of the major highways still closed, the airport is still closed.

Like we're used to lots of snow and bad weather, but this is wild even for us.


This is the apartment complex neighboring where a lot of the Sabres players have waterfront Condo's in downtown Buffalo. Storm surge flooding on top of everything else.

I've seen some big snows in my time but being so bad that people had to abandon their cars in the streets is a new one.

99% of stuck cars I've seen were twits that stuffed it into a ditch/berm or tried to ram through a massive drift.

The County Executive said it will likely take two more days to remove all the snow from side streets in Buffalo, because they have to haul it away in dump trucks. That means the driving ban in the city will likely stay in place, so I would expect that the Sabres/Red Wings game Thursday night will also be postponed. I also think it would be lovely to have them play if they haven’t been able to practice for nearly a week due to the weather. The airport should open tomorrow, so I think they will be good to play in Boston on Saturday. Hopefully they’ll be energized by the rest and not totally rusty and discombobulated from the long break.

Yeah feel like a broken record complaining about the third line and Dumo after every loss. But they really do need to fix one or both of those things because on nights when the rest of the team isn't going it gets ugly

Also the Flames absolutely caved the Oilers in most metrics but the good and cool one (goals). But also I'm not sure having Lucic as the 6th man with the goaler pulled is the best way to score. I dunno, I'm not a coach.

It's about finding that next group of core players we can win with in the next 6, 8, 10 years. Let's face it, it's hard for 20-, 21-, 22-year-olds to lead an NHL team. Look at the playoffs.

He is 5 off his career best of 31 goals 34 games into the season. Someone is going to pay him so much money in the offseason and then realize he's just a 25-30 goal guy.

Every time one of them makes an incredible save I cry on the inside at how good it feels. Or when the defense decides to randomly poo poo themselves and the other team have a 2 on 0 and I go "hey, this isn't guaranteed to be a goal!"
