Of course, but it was super funny that they saddled him with Kassian for eight years because they were convinced he was some sort of deterrent.

lol don't make excuses for the Oilers ineptness at the time. They overpaid Lucic and then kept trading and signing grinders so they could be "tough to play against". And then Connor liked playing with Kassian cause Connor is a hockey player.

The Oilers are a flawed but good team and have been for a couple of years now. Like, Holland isn't great but he's done okish which is light years ahead of where Chiarelli left them.

jakes did this?
The Devils played like absolute poo poo on that road trip and came out 4-0-1. Amusing counterbalance to them playing well and not getting anything out of it for a lot of games in December, but if they continue that run of play they're going to be in trouble when the goaltending dries up.

The bottom six is a real problem right now, it's getting caved pretty bad.

- Vox doesn't care about anything but catering to a Beltway audience

- Fox started their NHL coverage at the All-Star Game each year, so that's when the glow puck came out

I mean, it's mostly positioned as a must-read to DNC insider people. I'd assume that it's more that they can fire groups of people to make business reporters praise the company for doing such a great job of cost cutting.

Also want Philly one of the first teams to adopt the You Can Play program? This just keeps getting worse somehow.

So I ranted about this stuff in Discord yesterday, I’ve been trying to dig up the old scuttlebutt about YCP’s videos and pledges but since it was 11 years ago (:rip:) it’s pretty hard to find the posts/tweets/whatever

but anyway if you look at their Wikipedia article they don’t list NHL teams as supporters, only individual players. That’s because only the players who appeared in videos actually pledged their support to the cause, no NHL team has ever committed to being a supporter. Of course the controversy was that the messaging from YCP made it seem like teams were involved when that wasn’t the case, which is pretty shady

The only teams to take YCP’s pledge were some AHL clubs, and YCP doesn’t even do that anymore

Last night was crazy and this was an incredible way to cap it off. To be honest I was surprised that it wasn’t reviewed for being offside. The entire bench had already emptied onto the ice, could you imagine them calling that back? I mean, he was on side, there’s an angle where you can clearly see that the puck is across the line while Cozens still has a foot on the blue line but still.

The Ryan Miller banner ceremony was great. The whole night was electric. That’s the second sold out Sabres game I’ve gone to this season and they’ve rallied to win both of them (prev one was against Minnesota). If they play like they did against the Islanders against a lesser team they would score 9 goals. Oh wait that did happen against Columbus lol

By the way, that was only the second time this season the Sabres won a game while scoring fewer than four goals and the tenth time they gave up fewer than three goals.
